Ukulele Tuning

March 25th, 2011

To play ukulele with fun, we need to tune the sound to international standard which has two most popular tuner systems, ie. ‘Friction Tuner‘ and ‘Geared Tuner‘.

In the past, ukulele original size is ‘Soprano’. It’s one size which is the smallest. There is no technology to support so the tuning is simple by tension the string to the end of tuner and tuning to make the standard sound, they also make a small screw for locking tuner and prevent string slipping why it is called ‘Friction Tuner‘.

But due to it simplicity, the string that already tuned may slightly distort the sound because of the vibration from playing or movement of the instrument. Some people love it original but some boring about retuning sound quite often, so system ‘Geared Tuner‘ coming to prevent the distort sound from tuner string slipping and many ukulele player love this system.

Since we know that the note of each string is GCEA (4th to 1st) and when we tune, we start from any string and then tune all string by comparison each other for example.

1. We start from 3rd string by open C string to note C first.

2. Then tune 4th string by open G string compare to 3rd string by resting on the seventh fret that is note G.

3. Next, tune 2nd string by open E string compare to 3rd string by resting on the fourth fret that is note E.

4. Next, tune 1st string by open A string compare to 2nd string by resting on the fifth fret that is note A.

    What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.

  17. I have realized that over the course of making a relationship with real estate proprietors, you’ll be able to get them to understand that, in most real estate transaction, a commission is paid. Ultimately, FSBO sellers do not “save” the payment. Rather, they struggle to earn the commission by doing an agent’s job. In doing this, they invest their money plus time to conduct, as best they can, the tasks of an agent. Those responsibilities include getting known the home by means of marketing, showing the home to prospective buyers, developing a sense of buyer emergency in order to induce an offer, arranging home inspections, dealing with qualification investigations with the loan provider, supervising fixes, and assisting the closing.
