What is the ukulele's sound range?

It varies depending on the type of ukulele. The Tenor has a wider range than a concert or a soprano.


Why doesn't a trumpet sound like an ukulele?

Because you blow with one and you strum the strings on the other. The reverberations of the metal makes the sound in the horn while it is the wood resonating to the strings that makes the sound for the ukulele.


Does it matter if you have a hole when making an ukulele?

That depends on the type of instrument you are talking about. An electric ukulele used pickups and no sound hole is required. However, an acoustic ukulele is going to need to have holes to provide volume by allowing the sound to project out of the instrument.


Which ukulele sounds most tropical?

There are many variables that influence the sound of an ukulele. The strumming patterns, strings and the music being played will greatly affect the resulting sounds. My opinion would be that a soprano size ukulele has the sound most associated with the Hawaiian music.


How does the ukulele produce sound?

When the strings of the ukulele are plucked or strummed the vibrations transfer to the front of the ukulele through the bridge and the nut vibrating the neck and hollow body of the instrument. The sound hole on the front of the body helps to project the tone of the ukulele outward making it more easily heard. The larger the ukulele the space for resonance and louder the projection. A soprano ukulele would be much quieter than a tenor ukulele even though both are tuned to the same notes.
