I suppose it was really yesterday, but I bought it then and for complicated reasons I was unable to get it out till tonight.
I bought a Tanglewood TU6 in the natural colour.
Tuning was interesting for a noobie. I had seen sommewhere to tune the C string to the lowest C on the tuner which I did. :^( mistake it just didn't seem to soudn right. :^(
When I compared it to an online tuner I realised that I had tuned it an octave too low. I have now brought it up an octave [the whole uke] and it sounds much better.
Being completely new to stringed instruments it is all new to me, but I can just about manage C, F and G7 for a 12 bar progression :^))
my fingers now hurt :^(
