I ordered a custom that sadly had to be returned for other reasons but it was a 5 string. Thought you might like to know that they are usually strung with the high g first then the low g, c, e, a. I didn't realize this and had idea's about being able to play the uke as just a high g at times and put in the low g when I wanted. Muting the the top string (which I thought would be low g) with my thumb. Using this uke for a lot of fingerpicking. I don't know if there is a reason why it is done this way but the next time I order a 5 string I'll know to ask to have the low on the top
