HOW TO TUNE
1
The easiest way to tune a ukulele is to buy an
electronic tuner, or even to download a free tuning
app. Most brands of electronic tuners should have a
chromatic mode so you will be able to easily get your
ukulele in tune. This should apply to most clip-on
tuners and tuners you can get on your mobile phone.
It is nice to understand how your instrument works though, and
ukulele tuning is particularly interesting.
The strings on most instruments start low and get progressively
higher if you play them in order, but the ukulele starts with a high
note before dropping low!
This is called re-entrant tuning.
