Hello there this is a short and useful guide for anybody who can’t be arsed to use an online tuner or any other type of tuner. To do this you can also use a guitar!

The G string on the ukulele is the same note as the 3rd fret on the high E string of the guitar.

The C string on the ukulele is the same note as the 1st fret on the B string of the guitar.

The E string on the ukulele is the same as the open high E string of the guitar.

The A string of the ukulele is the same as the 5th fret of the high E string of the guitar.

Well that is pretty much it if you have a capo I usually would use that for the notes so I don’t have to keep on putting my ukulele down picking up my guitar and so on. If you have any further enquiries just email me or comment etc!
