It is undeniable that the ukulele has, through its own merits, become the trending instrument, but did you know that there are various types of ukuleles? The most widespread among professionals are tenor ukuleles, thanks to the spectacular sound they provide.
Tenor ukuleles emerged in the 1920s and, due to their characteristics, are the best option if you want to enjoy their chords and sound to a greater extent, which is quite different from that of the soprano ukulele.
What is a tenor ukulele?
The tenor ukulele is the second largest in size, only behind the baritone ukulele. What stands out about this type of ukulele is not just its size, which is quite a bit larger than the soprano.
Its sound also changes, and thanks to its 18 frets and a larger soundbox, the tenor ukulele offers a much deeper and lower-pitched sound.
What is the tuning of a tenor ukulele?
The tuning of the tenor ukulele is standard for this type of instrument. That is, from the first to the fourth string, following the sequence G, C, E, A. This is the standard tuning, also known as re-entrant C tuning.
Tenor ukulele strings are numbered, according to their tuning, from 1 to 4, using American notation for ease. The thickness of each string varies according to the tuning, with the string corresponding to the C note being thicker and the one equivalent to A being thinner.
Difference between tenor and soprano ukulele
Although the soprano is the most recommended ukulele for beginners, the truth is that if you already have some knowledge of how to play this instrument or if your hands are somewhat large, the tenor will adapt very well to your needs.
Due to the number of frets and the spacing between them, tenor ukuleles facilitate fingering, allowing chords to be played much more easily. Another advantage of tenor ukuleles over sopranos is the greater tension and spacing between their strings. Both factors make strumming easier and favor the practice of fingerpicking technique.
Tenor ukulele measurements
As we have already told you, tenor ukuleles are the second largest among the 4 types of ukuleles that exist. Specifically, the measurements of a tenor ukulele are about 66 centimeters or 26 inches.
This makes them the favorite choice of professional musicians, as their size and long fretboard provide an enormous range of notes.
