Hi to everyone on the forum,
I've recently brought a Makala Dolphin with aims of one day taking it into my Year one Class (New Teacher full of ideas!) I've no experience with string instruments and have bought the 'Ukulele from the beginning' by Chester Music Limited.
Anyhow I have been advised to buy the 'proper strings' as aposed to the standard ones on the Uke.
I have some D'addario j65's but on investigation I've noticed they are strung to ADF#B rather than the standard GCEA.
If I tune these as instructed how will this affect my fingering when playing simple chords i.e. C chord third finger third fret.
Should I swop these string to standard or tune them to a C or just continue as the book suggests.
Much Thanks
Joe
