I did post this at Center Stage Ukulele Academy as well since I got a subscription for Christmas, but this forum seems much more active. So....
Just as the title says, when the E string is played it sounds a bit “wavy” similar to the way two strings played together sound that are almost in tune. It seems to be exacerbated when chords are actually being played. For example, when I fret the E string to play an F chord the E string sounds even more “wavy.” This happens even when the string is strum all by itself. And just in cast you were wondering, yes the tuner does indicate that it is in tune. I will also note that on my uke the E string does come out of tune rather quickly, it must be tuned before every session and sometimes during if I play for an hour or so.
I am a beginner so I’m not sure if this is normal and if not what if anything can be done. Any advice would be great, thanks in advance!
