What is a ukulele?
A ukulele is a four-stringed musical instrument of the lute family, typically with a soprano or concert pitch.

There are four main types of ukuleles:
Each type of ukulele has a different size, with the soprano being the smallest and the baritone being the largest. The size of the ukulele affects the sound it produces, with the larger ukuleles having a deeper, richer sound and the smaller ukuleles having a higher, brighter sound.
