How to make cheap ukuleles soud better
[By the way: it can take up to a week until the strings do not stretch any more when the uke is new]
With an electric tuner you tuned the four strings perfectly, but chords
(except for one-finger-chords like C and Am) do not sound perfect?
Don't worry! You CAN make them sound better like this:
Stick a toothpick that you cut to the suitable length in front of every bridge
(if the tone is too high-pitched) and check the tone. The pitch should be less now.
This probabely doesen't make a cheap uke sound perfect, but it 'helped' my uke;-)
Enjoy playing uke !!
