Tuning the Ukulele

Tuning the Ukulele is easy.   No longer do you have to have perfect pitch or even a piano or a pitch pipe.  There are many good Websites and products to help you out.   Here are a few…

Online Tuners:

• GetTuned.com I like this because the tone repeats itself.

Tuners with special features:

• UkuleleWorld.com has ALL of the Ukuleles (including the Baritone) available on a single page.  Simply ‘hover’ over the string pitch and it will automatically play it.
• AP Tuner – Have a computer microphone?  You can download the ‘Shareware’ program, AP Tuner for Windows, and when you play the string (into the mike) the meter will show you when it is in tune.
