I’ve got an Ibanez parlor body tenor guitar and while it sounds pretty good, the stretch is a bit much for violin fingers and the steel is a bit sharp for me.
I’ve been looking for a shorter scale tenor guitar, something in the 19” range, but finding something in the store is near impossible. I did play a Kala ukulele of some sort that was branded as being DGBE like the top four of a guitar and it felt pretty good scale-wise. The nylon strings added more warmth and mellowness as well.
So the magic question, and I know I’ve asked it for steel string. What ukulele size and what strings will give me GDAE tuning (octave mandolin aka tenor guitar GDAE) with the least amount of fuss?
