That precise scale length is the definition of a tenor ukulele.\u003cbr\u003eBut here, you have a scale length of just over 18\". The scale length of a baritone is 19\".\u003cbr\u003eThis mix is a bit reminiscent of a soprano longneck, a soprano with a neck and scale length like a concert.\u003cbr\u003eA large tenor or a small baritone?\u003cbr\u003eThe question almost becomes philosophical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, what can you use a Tenor XL for?\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is a bit longer than a regular tenor and a bit wider. More space for your fingers, that might be an argument for many.\u003cbr\u003eBe creative with tunings.\u003cbr\u003eYou can tune it like a baritone ukulele, in G. But the shorter scale opens up some possibilities.\u003cbr\u003eTune it in A, i.e., one step higher than a baritone.\u003cbr\u003eOr another half step up - Then you're in the same tuning as many brass players.\u003cbr\u003eOr tune it in C, but with a low G - Now you have a ukulele where the low G string truly shines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOr tune it like a completely normal tenor (high G) and you have a ukulele with an extra rich tone and good sustain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e - Super Tenor body size\u003cbr\u003e- 479 mm \/ 18.875\" scale\u003cbr\u003e- 714 mm \/ 28.125\" overall length\u003cbr\u003e- solid Spruce top\u003cbr\u003e- solid Ziricote back and sides\u003cbr\u003e- Mahogany neck (Aucoumea klaineana)\u003cbr\u003e- Rosewood fingerboard\u003cbr\u003e- slotted headstock with Kala logo\u003cbr\u003e- GraphTech NuBone nut and saddle\u003cbr\u003e- dot inlays\u003cbr\u003e- flamed Maple binding\u003cbr\u003e- chrome, open, geared machine heads\u003cbr\u003e- D'Addario Clear Nylon strings w\/ Wound Low G\u003cbr\u003e- satin finish\u003cbr\u003e- incl.
