I have a question which is probably pretty stupid. How can you tell from the scale what pitch to choose? What is a short scale, and what is a long scale? Is it possible to tell the difference without doing a lot of precise measuring? Does a long scale mean a lower pitch? And does a short scale mean a higher pitch? Why is this so? Thanks!
