Electronic Tuner

The easiest and most accurate way to tune your ukulele is by using an electronic tuner. An electronic tuner allows you to tune each string individually to the tuner, by indicating whether the notes are sharp (too high) or flat (too low). The tuner will have an inbuilt microphone. There are several types of electronic tuners but most are relatively inexpensive and simple to operate.

Tuning using other methods is difficult for beginning musicians and it takes many months to master, so we recommend you purchase an electronic tuner, particularly if you do not have a teacher or a friend who can tune it for you. Also if your ukulele is way out of tune you can always take it to your local music store so they can tune it for you. Once a ukulele has been tuned correctly it should only need minor adjustments before each practice session.
