![]() If you are just beginning to tune your ukulele, then it is a good idea to use a chromatic tuner to start off with. Most tuners have small gears attached to them to make turning the tuner smoother and easier, although tuning set-ups on cheap models of ukulele are known to slip very easily, causing the ukulele to go out of tune. The strings of the ukulele are tightened or loosened to produce the right note by the tuners (otherwise known as tuning pegs or pegs) which are located in the head of the ukulele, with pegs either to the side or pointing backwards. The baritone ukulele is the most differently tuned of the four types of ukulele, as it is tuned to the same pitch as the four-highest strings of the guitar, with the scientific pitch: D3-G3-B3-E4. While the high-G tenor tuning is exactly the same as the concert and soprano tuning (G4-C4-E4-A4), the low-G tuning breaks away from the standard ukulele re-entrant tuning by lowering the G-string by an octave (G3-C4-E4-A4). The tenor on the other hand has two common G-C-E-A tunings, involving either a high-G or low-G. While the standard tuning of the soprano ukulele is A4-D4-F#4-B4, it is now almost exclusively tuned down to the 'concert' tuning of G4-C4-E4-A4. ![]() However, it has become more common for the three smallest types of ukulele to all be tuned to G-C-E-A. The four main types of ukulele (soprano, concert, tenor and baritone) each have their own standard tuning. ![]()
