I recently purchased a cheap pocket ukulele to keep at my desk or throw in my bag if I'm heading to a friends house. I wanted to tune it to GCEA like my Soprano and my Concert uke, but tuning this low is not practical with the strings that came on it (I think they're standard Soprano strings).
I came across the Aquila 94U strings: http://omegamusic.co.uk/buy/aquila-aq-94u-soprano-piccolo-mini-iuke-ukulele-strings
According to the description these should allow me to tune my pocket Uke to GCEA, but an octave higher. Is it that simple? If I use these strings tuned to GCEA will I be able to use the same chords and play along with any other Uke tuned to GCEA?
Thanks for the help. I'm still pretty new to the Uke, but quickly becoming obsessed.
