Much to my annoyance, the C string on my new Ukadelic has started ringing... I'm also noticing that the volume on it has dropped a lot. I'm assuming this means I need new strings, but it's just annoying that on a brand new Uke that I'm changing my strings a week into owning the instrument.
Is this a pretty common thing to look out for in new Ukes? That unless I know it's just come into the store, that the strings are going to probably need replacing within a few weeks of owning the instrument? Or is it just bad practice on the part of the shop I bought it from? Alternatively, is it just me playing on it a little too hard?
Either way, me trying to restring a Uke for the first time is going to be fun :/
