Thanks Miz, I have a really good Luthier in my area. He is so popular that he has 2 week waiting list for set ups. I’d have to do one at a time (soprano & concert is all I have). Need to get on the “ball” and do it!
I’m using the full version installed on my laptop. I think I will purchase it at the end of the trial. It’s not that expensive and gee, it saved me so much time. My previous arrangement was all hand drawn with both standard notation and tablature. Not very pretty. ha.
Good vid. The baritone is now a NO. Tenor sounds interesting. A specific example of what I’m looking for: Check out my arrangement of Romeo & Juliet Love Theme. There is one instance where I hit the 8th fret. I wanted it to really ring out and sustain but it doesn’t, maybe my technique. So I wonder if the tenor would be better suited for playing above the 5th fret.
Boy o boy! Did I open up a can of worms. LOL Now my head is swimming. Maybe we could have a live lesson on that sometime.
mfaskke, I had my terminology wrong. At this stage, I was looking at a baritone ukulele. Definitely not ready for a ubass.
Becky, I thought the progression in size was, soprano, concert, tenor, baritone. But you say the tenor has less frets?

Robin, very good advice. I was under the impression that the baritone had a much different sound similar to an acoustic guitar. I don’t have a tenor. Does the tenor sound much different than the concert?
Yes, I do. Haha. New Orleans is like New York in that it is a melting pot of immigrants being a port city. Saint Joseph’s Day is a big celebration in New Orleans. Many Italian ladies get together for days cooking for spectacular food displays for all the churches in the City. By the Way, my St. Joseph lilies are blooming right now.
Thanks, Andrew. That finesse lesson was packed with info which I forgot. Have to save it to my youtube favorites!!
Robin, I checked and double checked with a snark tuner and both register the exact same note, so it must be the timbre. It’s really almost unnoticeable until you play them in succession.
Recdog, thanks also. In general I can’t distinguish between a $100 bottle of wine and a $10 bottle. So I’m not going to “FRET” about it. LOL
Sounds like he is singing in a different key, higher in the LIVE version. Both sound terrific. Go with the live version.
