Baratone Ukulele strung GCEA

[Django57]

I'm thinking of buying a Baritone Ukulele and stringing it GCEA , I wondered would the tension be higher? I assume it would just wanted the check with the experts .

Not if you buy strings that are specifically designed for GCEA on the baritone.
If you are inclined to explore, try "octave 'ukulele" tuning. It's GCEA on a baritone... but an octave lower. In other words, lower than DGBE tuning. You can find videos on YouTube if you want to hear before you buy the strings.

Thanks Futurethink very helpful , I should have said it's an electric Baritone Ukulele I'm thinking of so the strings would be steel wound and plain . I watched a video with Octave ukulele tuning didn't like it.

You have a lot of options with steel strings. You'll just need to experiment with different diameters.
Is it an eleuke with bluetooth? Some other brand?

It's a company on Etsy called Fanner based in South Africa this is a screen shot of the Ukulele , it's a big investment so I need to be sure before I decide they said they could make a Tenor version so I have other options .

That's marvelous!
I imagine that if you ask the builder, he'll have a recommendation for strings.
