Low G Ukulele Tuner

Low G tuning drops the fourth string an octave to G3 for a deeper, more guitar-like range.

Low G tuning notes

Only the G string changes. It sits at 196.00 Hz instead of 392.00 Hz.

Do you need a different string?

Yes. A standard high G string tuned down an octave would be far too slack. Buy a dedicated low G string, often wound, sized for your ukulele (concert or tenor are the most common).

Low G or high G?

High G gives the classic bright strum. Low G adds bass notes and suits fingerstyle and solo arrangements. Chord shapes stay the same either way. Back to the standard ukulele tuner.
