Question 2

im wanting to buy this for my husband who is left handed. has anyone had success with this particular ukulele switching strings?

Accepted Answer

Ukuleles come with the same string it is not a guitar. Just have your husband hold it left-handed and tune accordingly. I grew up in Hawai`i playing the ukulele. I am purchasing a concert or tenor know. I wanted to add to my collection.

Question 3

Does this Cordoba really have 6 strings?  The picture shows only 4.

Accepted Answer

I bought a 4 string Córdoba Ukulele. Actually, I bought 2: one a concert uke, the other a soprano. I like them both. They are both ukuleles...4 strings.

Question 4

I got this today but it is easily out of tuned (every hour). Is this normal for a new instrument?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is normal. It takes time for new strings to stretch out. This happens any time you change strings and it's true for guitars, ukes, basses etc... If you are careful and don't just yank or rip at them, you can lightly pull each individual string up to help break it in quicker by laying the uke on your lap or on a table with the strings up and put your finder under he drying about half way between the top of the neck and the bottom and just pull up on the string and hold it for about 10-30 seconds. Don't pull pull until it feels like it will snap just tug a little depending on the which string. The thick strings you might be able to pull a half inch and the thinner strings maybe a quarter inch do this for each string a couple times. Re-tune all the strings and do this 3 or four times and you should notice it going out of fine less and less each time. After a few times just start playing it and you will notice that it stays in tune much better. After a few days if playing, the neck and strings should be fully broken in and you should be able to go anyway where between a few days and weeks without really needing to tune it again (more or less time depending on how often you play it and how hard you strum)
