There should be a ukulele law that states newbies should not read about different tunings for a least a year! I unfortunately did read about them and I am totally confused!
I started on and am still playing on a concert size in C tuning with low G. So it is tuned GCEA.
It was suggested I might like Bb tuning for playing with horn players. So for that a tenor uke would be needed and would be tuned F Bb D G. Right?
I just got a Lyle Ritz book that shows the chords two different ways. One for C tuning and the other for a Tenor uke tuned DGBE. Would that be G tuning? What's up with that? Why use this tuning.
so then what's the D tuning I've read about. ADFB? And what is it used for?
Last question. If you do have a tuning other than C, is the music actually written for it, or do you have to transpose from C tuning?
I'm going to go take an advil now!!!
