How to Tune your Ukulele
How to Tune your Ukulele
- You will need to tune your uke each time you play.
- The strings on your new ukulele need to be stretched before tuning.
- Place your hand on the bridge and lightly tug on the strings, pulling them away from the face of the ukulele. Do this to each string a few times during the tuning process.
- Sound each string individually. The string name will appear on the display of your tuner.
- The most common ukulele tuning is G-C-E-A.
- When the needle is in the middle and the letter turns GREEN, the string is in tune. WHITE is out of tune.
