È generalmente tradotto come ukulele a Hong Kong e Taiwan, ed è comunemente indicato come ukulele sulla terraferma, inventato in Portogallo e diffuso alle Hawaii, ed è classificato come uno strumento a chitarra. In generale, gli ukulele sono classificati in base alla lunghezza, da piccoli a grandi, in quattro misure: soprano, concerto, tenore e baritono, che influiscono sul tono e sul volume dell'ukulele. I primi tre sono oggi più comuni sul mercato, mentre il baritono è meno usato perché è accordato in modo diverso dagli altri tre.

How to choose ukulele?

material The most common ukulele materials are mahogany and spruce. Acacia wood and zebra wood are not common, and generally appear in high-end ukulele materials. The general differences in the sound quality of several woods are: Mahogany: Warm tone and good sustain. Spruce: clear and soft, good resonance. Acacia: The sound is bright at normal strength, and sweet when the strength is high. Zebra Wood: Bright and flamboyant. In fact, what material to choose is not very important for beginners. For example, spruce wood is divided into dozens of species such as Australian spruce, Engelman spruce, North American spruce, and hemlock. It is almost impossible to understand the sound quality of all these boards. Therefore, it is very important to listen to the evaluation sound in the product introduction before buying. Only in this way can you confirm that the ukulele you get is the sound you really want. Generally on the product introduction, you can listen to the strings by clicking on the video. Common types of ukulele strings are nylon and carbon. In addition, titanium strings and guts are less common. The main difference between different strings is the feel and sustain. Nylon strings: feel like steel wire, it is more painful to press, the sustain is short, and the timbre is varied. Carbon strings: feel like soft steel wire, less painful to press, longer sustain, and more durable. In fact, the influence of strings on the timbre is not very obvious to the novice (because you have listened to the evaluation video, it is a display of comprehensive sound quality). So as long as the piano is not too painful, there is g

What are the ukulele production materials?

It is recognized that the most suitable material for making Ukulele is Koa (Hawaii koa), a rare hardwood tree from Hawaii, called Hawaiian Koa Acacia, light brown with beautiful wood grain and high-end flame-like grain. It has a gentle sound similar to mahogany, but its high frequencies are more prominent than mahogany. Koa has a higher density than Mahogany, so it has a brighter tone and weaker low frequencies. Due to the oiliness of wood, the high frequency is also slightly weakened. All in all, Koa's tone is more focused on the midrange, the high frequencies are smooth and compress, and the low frequencies are clear but weak. Compared with other woods, the fundamentaltone of Koa tone is stronger, less dynamic and more compressive. When playing vigorously, the sound quality is sweet. This kind of wood must be played for a few years before the sound will appear. The color is a little too bright, just like walnut contains too much oil. When used as a guitar, the color is dark brown, and it is often not painted to keep it special. But the appearance after painting is also quite beautiful. The logging of Hawaiian acacia has been banned, and the real Hawaiian acacia produced was previously stored, and the price has become more expensive. Therefore, luthiers have targeted the acacia from Taiwan and Southeast Asian countries. The price is easy for people to accept. The sound quality is really dominated by craftsmanship. Hawaii`s expensiveness is caused by scarcity. So everyone should not blindly believe in wood. Good wood is very important, but craftsmanship is the key.
