The instrument is factory-equipped with top-notch nylon strings from the world-leading manufacturer Aquila. These strings significantly improve the acoustic properties of the instrument, are more comfortable to hold, and maintain stable tuning better. What is the difference between soprano and concert ukulele? A concert ukulele (23") is slightly larger than a soprano (21"). It has a larger body, which means a louder and fuller sound with better bass frequencies. It also has a longer neck and wider spaces between frets, making it more comfortable to play for adults with larger fingers. How is the Izzo IZ330CK concert ukulele tuned? The concert ukulele is tuned exactly the same as the soprano, i.e., to the standard tuning G - C - E - A. You can therefore use the same chord fingerings and songbooks. Is it normal for new Aquila strings to detune at first? Yes, all new synthetic and nylon strings need a few days of regular tuning until the material naturally stretches. However, due to the high quality of Aquila strings, the tuning stabilizes significantly faster than with ordinary no-name strings.
