I saw something the other day that qued my interest.  If you capo a regular guitar at the fifth fret you basically have a uke.  So.... if I saw a fret board at the fifth fret and put the bridge the same distance it would be on a full size scale will it be a uke?

 Thanks

    I would suggest checking two things, first measure from the fifth fret to the bridge and see what size uke you line up with. Then use a scale calculator to check fret spacing. Both are easy to find online. Good luck!
