The fact is Eddie Vedder is a hugely successful musician. If you want to play like Eddie, perhaps what you should focus on are the types of instruments he plays instead of the make and model. Well, here are a few things that make tenors great instruments, especially for performers:.
The size of the tenor is a great place to start. Playing on a stage setting, you also might enjoy the larger size of the tenor ukulele. With amplification, it may not matter to you as much. Many ukulele players also site the tenor as sounding better when fingerpicked, which is how many players prefer playing their ukuleles.
Tenor ukuleles are also known for having a better sustain than smaller ukuleles, like the concert or soprano ukes. Having a longer sustain allows you to make more dramatic pauses in playing. While these are good reasons for using tenor ukuleles, the truth is that most of that is subjective. You may dislike having a larger body, or you may enjoy the more tinny sound of a soprano or concert ukulele.
Eddie has multiple ukuleles in his collection that have five or six strings. You really can sum up Eddie Vedder and his ukuleles in just a few words: one of a kind. That Adim chord can be tricky.

The concept of an all-ukulele album from one of rock's most ferocious vocalists has had many scratching their heads, but "Longing To Belong" should help assuage their fears. First, the uke sounds great? Second, there's a nice bowed stringed instrument following along. Also, it's a rather touching love song, and feels more tightly focused lyrically than much of Pearl Jam's modern output.
Let's hope the rest of the tracks are this engaging. Eddie Vedder playing DeVine Ukuleles. Eddie Vedder's new solo album is out Eddie Vedder has said this solo outing began with no intention of the music going public, and there's no reason to doubt him.
