So I got the Dolphin I ordered delivered yesterday. Had an empty sleeve of Aquila strings in the box. I assume this was to show that those are the strings on the uke as I paid extra for a set up. I check it out and start to tune it. The G string was at A# so I had to tune down thru A#, A, and G# to arrive at G. The C string is currently reading G on my tuner. That's so far off C (i think) that I quit in confusion. Should I tighten up to get to C or loosen up to get to C. Was afraid that if I tightened up that much I might break the string. Also thought maybe it's strung wrong. Or maybe it was shipped with low tension on the neck on purpose. Any input?
