Uke got mail ep53: Classical guitar strings for concert uke?

aldrine — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:14:30 +0000

How to use Classical Guitar Strings on your ukulele!

Step 1: Buy Classical guitar strings (you will need two packs, or you can buy single strings.)
Step 2: String your ukulele using the high classical E string where your ukulele G would go, a classical G string where your ukulele C would go, a classical B string where your ukulele E would go, and another high E classical string where your uke A string would go. So pretty much -

Classical -> Ukulele
e -> G
G -> C
B -> E
e -> A

That’s it! If you don’t want to spend the extra money or time buying two sets of guitar strings or tracking down individual strings, we offer D’Addario Pro Arte classical guitar strings in the UU Store, PRE-PACKAGED in convenient ukulele sets with all of the strings you need! Tenor and Concert sets available. Check them out and get your high tension on!

Have a terrific Thursday!
