My first ukulele just arrived! It's a Mainland Mango Tenor. I got it from Mainland Ukes (great support) and it was shipped in a big box inside of a hard case that I also bought.
It's a really hot day here and my uke was on the UPS truck all day. The box was hot. I pulled the hardcase out of the box and took the plastic bag off of the hard case. I haven't opened the hard case yet.
My question: How long should I wait to open the case and how long should I wait to tune it to normal pitch?
I don't want to jolt it by bringing it into an air conditioned, cool house after a long hot journey. Am I being too cautious?
