I tune my ukulele like a machete.

In Oz at the moment we have a nightly live entertainment-comedy show on tv called 'The Full Brazilian' to correspond with each day of the world cup.
The "house band" is a three piece: bass, percussion and UKULELE. Yep, we got ukulele every night on tv for a month. Perfect. [/QUOTE

Yeah that kind of hot latino rhythm thang, tried to find a youtube of them but nothing just yet though I'm sure there will be in due course. The guy plays a cutaway, a tenor by the looks of it.
sounds cool as of late ive been getting into a lot of jazz (any kind) so seems cool!
Yes, but I do have the re-entrant top string. I came from banjo which also uses DGBD tuning, or rather gDGBD. Remember that first Honolulu newspaper report on the Portuguese instruments mentions their tuning as being banjo-like.
