I was given a Cordoba uke and all the strings have what I consider good sustain but the A string has none, and it seems to me the tension on the string is extremely high compared with all the other strings. At first, I thought it had an incorrect string installed, so I changed all the strings. The A string, still just kind plinks, no sustain whatsoever. I thought maybe it was tuned too high, so I tuned it down an octave, but this was wrong, and it was like a wet noodle. By the way, it doesn't appear to be a fret problem, where the string is touching a fret. The string has no sustain whether played open or when playing a chord. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
