I do the stretch gently (lift up away from fretboard) as I tune upwards. I read somewhere that may no be a good thing, but it has served me well. Still need to tweak the tuners for several days every time I pick it up.
The stretch up may affect the bridge especially if it is just glued down. I know a lot of people do do it that way though and most ukes seem unaffected. Thanks for watching!
these uke got mails are getting really boring, ppl need to ask aldrine more questions!!
It's up to youuuu.
I have heard that the streching of strings by 'pulling' them can affect innotation.
