A friend and I just performed at an outdoor festival a couple days ago (our first)- the first performance we did the air was pretty chilly, and everything went smoothly. The second performance, however, was in the blazing sun and it kept sending our ukuleles wildly out of tune, which was absolutely maddening as we had to re-tune after every song.
Does anybody have any suggestions? My soprano has nylon strings (Martins for now, although I'd like to try nylgut next); my friend's baritone I'm not sure about. Are there strings that are better for all weather, or is this the kind of thing we'll have to get used to in the summer? Does my ukulele just need a tan?
Thanks for any help!
