What is the tuning? I suspect 4 strings for A (1st string), E (2nd) , C (3rd) and high G (4th)

Yep, standard tuning. You can tune it differently though - for example "G" tuning: DGBE, like the bottom strings of a guitar, and "D" tuning: ADF#B. There are a few other ukulele tunings that sound pretty interesting too.

You are correct - provided that you are referring to the first string as being the lowest one on the instrument when you are holding it. Simple reminder is 'great chefs eat alot' - although you may have heard of that one already.

I assume you are asking what is standard Uke tuning? If so, you are correct.

There are two common ways to tune the tenor ukulele. One is with a re-entrant G, meaning the 4th string is a high G in G-C-E-A. The other was is the 4th string is a low G in G-C-E-A. When you buy a pack of strings and it says low G, that is what you get and you tune accordingly.

The strings are installed. Suggest you get a digital tuner so you can tune it though.

No the strings won't be tuned I'd advise in getting a tuner especially since it being new strings they won't stay tuned for long. But eventually they stay tuned.

A 4 string sounds more like a guitar. An 8 string sounds more like a conventional mandolin, and allows for special tunings. Neither is better, it depends on what sound you want.

I have only bought two sets of Concert sized strings for my ukuleles. These have been high g strings. I would imagine that as long as it is not noted in the text for the strings the g string should be high g. that is the most common option.

Hi,It is in key of C.... Standard tuning is 440, and it doesn't indicate otherwise.

This is in fact a 5 string. Amazon has the incorrect photo in their catalog. Thanks! ~The Music Farm 330-546-7076

Using the chromatic setting you can tune any string to any note. For example I use it to tune to open E tuning . I was told in an email by the company that the standard tuning setting is pretty much just their as a guide to new users (i.e. these are notes you should tune to). So as long as you know what note to tune strings to in a C tuning you will be fine.

Very Carefully... sorry, I could not help myself. It is usually tuned in the standard guitar tuning of EADGBE and usually with the heavier "medium" phosphor bronze strings .013- .056... sometimes (still using those strings) it is tuned in a drop D tuning of DADGBE where the 6th string (low E) is lowered to D from E a tuner with a plug in jack makes it easier to tune

The "C" string is the thicker of the two. Now go and play some tunes. Good luck

If I recall, Clapton plays with high action (like SRV) so I will base my answer on that assumption. The Number therefore is 4. My Entourage has not be adjusted in any way from the factory though I have changed the strings to a lighter gauge. At present, the strings are at a distance of 3mm from the top of the 12th fret to the string itself. Compared to some older guitars I have owned, I would say this one has a pretty light action. Since it has a bolt-on neck, future adjustments to neck angle can be more easily made to compensate for the eventual "bellying" of the top. There is also some "meat" on the saddle so it could be lowered more if that were necessary.

This one comes with a high G string. You could probably switch it out for the low, however. It is a nice uke. I have had it for a while now and I still like it very much.

I'm sorry I meant tuning the strings is easy. to actually play might be difficult. I mean my fingers have not bled but they have calloused and sometimes I can't get the chord to play because its difficult.

I have this guitar and I put 10-46 strings on it no problem. I don't know what strings came on it. I changed them immediatly.

tuning up on standard guitar strings is dangerous, I recommend you get custom gauge strings, that sounds complicated but it's simple enough for you to figure out. hopefully you know you need a smaller string for a higher note at the same tension.

Yes. You can use the chromatic mode to tune any string to any note frequency. All you need to know is what each string should be tuned to for drop D (or any other tuning). If you do not know the notes then it is a good idea that you learn them :)

I bought some extra tension strings to tune it E-A-D-G-B-e. It didnt work well. It would match the intonation but sounded sloppy. So I re-tuned it A-D-G-C-E-a.
