How can I tell my ukulele size?

Euclidean dimension is actually the measured straight line length from the head to the bottom of the piano. There are four regular sizes of ukulele, which are 2 1 inch, 23-inch, 26-inch and 30-inch.

Size classification:

Soprano: 2 1 inch (the total length is about 55 cm), the square number is about 12- 14, and the chord is GCEA (from the fourth string to the first string). S type for short

Concert: 23 inches (about 60 cm long), the number of squares is about 15- 18, and the chord is GCEA. Type c for short

Tenor: 26 inches (about 68 cm long), the number of squares is about 15-20, and the chord is GCEA. T type for short

Baritone: 30 inches (about 80 cm long), chord: DGBE. Type b for short

Dimensional characteristics:

2 1 inch -S type: light and easy to carry without burden, and can be carried around at any time to play and sing with friends, but the scope is limited.

23-inch -C type: fingers with moderate or thick flexibility, or older elders who want to learn, will need a larger piano lattice to press the strings. Fingers that choose S-shape will be squeezed on the fingerboard, and those that choose T-shape may find it difficult to stand and hold, so those between S and T belong to C-shape.

26-inch T-shape: Jack and james hill took a wider range of sizes. If you want to choose * * * to play, it will be a good choice! But the volume is relatively large, the fingerboard ratio is also wide, and the grade distance is long.

How to choose a good piano;

1, Qin's * * * sound: Listen to whether the piano sound is clear, long and * * *. You must try a few more pieces for comparison, but first try the piano in the shop yourself.

2. Piano intonation: Electronic tuners are usually available in shops. After the four strings are tuned to GCEA pitch from top to bottom, then press 12 to play, it will also be GCEA. If they are all accurate, it means that the basic workmanship quality of the piano has basically passed. If they are not accurate, it is best not to think too much. After all, can playing a piano with inaccurate intonation be called an "instrument"? At best, it is a noisy toy.

3. Piano strings: The strings used in ukulele are nylon strings, and the more advanced pianos will use gut strings. The energy of each piano has been basically set at the factory, so it is difficult to make it have more changes. Therefore, it is convenient and quick to add points to the sound of the piano by changing strings. The most popular and cheapest string is black GHS, and even the best is Aquila's white Italian gut. Even if a good piano uses a bad string, it will be discounted in sound, so pay attention.

4. In addition, try to see whether the strings are pressed well and whether the distance between the strings and the fingerboard is too large. You can also ask the store to adjust the string pillow and the piano bridge so that beginners can feel good about pressing the string.
