Using y our electronic tuner:New strings take time to stretch out before dey w

hold their tune to da max, so it is not uncommon thatyou will have to re-tune often when startin. *Watcht!* Tightening the strings too much can bust’em.

Using the electronic tuner is da no worries way to ge

da ukulele up to pitch. Keep a stink eye on the displaywhen you pluck theindividual strings. Thetuner will registerthe note that you are

strokin. Increase ordecrease the tensionuntil the display shows the proper note of the stringyou are tuning.

Once you are in the proper range you can fine tune thestring. If you show note is flat (b) tighten the stringtill da center light shows green. If you are sharp (#)ighten up on da string until the center light shows

green.
