I wasn't happy that this ukulele came tuned baritone gCEA, one octave below standard gCEA, and one fifth below standard baritone dGBE/DGBE tuning. I had some classical guitar strings to hand (RotoSound Superbia CL2 normal tension); and so, in lieu of 'proper' baritone ukulele strings I swapped in the A, D, B & E strings & tuned them to D, G, B & E respectively*. It's fair to say, I'm very happy with the results:
