Perhaps the greatest appeal of the bass ukulele is its ability to produce a big sound despite its tiny size. And while it's much smaller than a bass guitar, it's still pretty big compared to most ukuleles. Typical bass ukuleles range from 30-32″ in length, which is comparable to a standard baritone ukulele.

No. A ukulele is tuned completely differently from a bass guitar and has far fewer frets. A soprano ukulele is typically tuned G4-C4-E4-A4: in other words, the uppermost string is actually tuned higher than the next two down. A four-string bass guitar is tuned E1-A1-D2-G2.
