I am comfortable playing short scale bass. Short being around 23inch. I have messed with 3/4 and full size 6 string guitar with little success. Large hands with short fat fingers. I am comfortable playing tenor and baritone uke at a cavaquinho tuning of ggbd. I play strumstick dad or gdg well. I bought a blueridge br-40t to try. My wife did not like "the tinny sound" of cdga that it came with so i have slapped some acoustic dadarrio strings 42-13 for gdae or gdad on. Before taking to be setup, unless i do it, i need to pick a tuning as intonation bridge and nut issues both are in play now. Intending to learn gdad. Not going to play irish music. Mainly country old rock ore Christian in a campfire or church or jam or as only accompaniment for voice. Open canvas for melody, chord melody, or chordal playing. So suggestions and why appreciated...
