## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can these strings do a mandolin tuning for a Uke. If not what would you recommend ??**
A: Mandolin tuning is GDAE, not GDEA.
Mando standard tuning is G3-D4-A4-E5 and typically has a 13" to 13 7/8" scale and have as many as 29 frets
Tenor "low G" tuning is     G3-C4-E4-A4 and use a scale that's about 17" and have 17 to 19 frets.

The difference in scale length has some additional challenges. You can probably bring the C4 string up to D4 pretty easily.  You'll need to lower the E4 string to A4, which means you'll probably need a thicker string and may need to open up the slot on the nut or risk cracking the nut. The real challenge will be bringing the A(4) string up more than an octave to E(5).  

As far as "can you do it?" goes: yes, you can bring the uke up to mandolin tuning, but it adds a lot of stress to the instrument that it wasn't designed for (depending on the instrument, you can collapse the top or tear off the bridge). You'll also find that the nylon strings won't like being pulled that taut and they'll stretch and/or break. A steel string will give you a better shot at achieving an E(5) pitch, but you risk damaging the instrument.

**Q: What low G Aquila strings are all nylgut?**
A: The low G is a wound string making it thin enough that you won’t need to file the nut. Once stretched out they sound fantastic.

**Q: My tenor uke is new. Can I just replace the 4th string with a low G string**
A: You can get a classical guitar D string, and use that as a low G string.  You'll have to cut quite a bit of it off.

**Q: What is it mean by a "set"? Is it just the 4 strings or 4 sets of 4 strings? I see other products not marketed as a "set" that come with all 4 strings**
A: One set of strings is: four strings that are each the notes for 1A string, 2E string, 3C string and 4G string. They will also be color coded so there is no confusion as to the order they will be strung over the fret board. The soprano, concert and tenor sizes of 'ukuleles can have the option of using a low G steal or a high G string. A low G string will have a fuller guitar sound to it and a high G will be light and bright sounding. Never put all steal strings onto a 'uke . You will crack the neck. Hope this helps. One set equals 4 strings in the package.
