I ordered my first ukulele and plan to try out both DGBE and low GCEA tuning to determine which I like best on my new baritone. I am a novice and could use any insight on the string changing process. As an example, can you put strings back on a ukulele after they have been removed? The scale length of my Pono ULN4 baritone is 21.4” which is slightly longer than a standard baritone. It is being shipped with the factory Ko'olau Alohi DGBE baritone strings. I ordered a set of baritone low G Tuning GCEA Living Water strings as well as Baritone Low GCEA from Guadalupe Custom Strings. What are the appropriate size strings and tension? Any other tips on how to change strings or how best to evaluate picking a preferred tuning? I have had one ukulele lesson and the instructor favors tenor ukuleles which have GCEA tuning which may influence my decision. What is the general consensus on baritone tuning? I have large hands, so I desired a longer fretboard, but long neck tenors were out of my price range. The Pono Baritone BN4 was also outside my price range as well as being larger than I needed.
