Soprano versus Concert ukulele?
Soprano ukuleles are 21″ and the most common and standard type of ukulele. They are known for their jangly sound and are good ukuleles for beginners or children.
Concert ukuleles are 23” and are a little bit bigger than Soprano ukuleles. Some consider them to have a fuller sound. They are a good option for adults with larger hands.

When you are ready to return your ukulele kit, you can return it directly to the Port Moody Public Library Accounts desk. Please do not attempt to return kits in the book drop.
