Online Ukulele TunerUse this free online ukulele tuner to tune your ukulele. This online tuner is special because you are able to change the notes to what you want, this is especially useful if you are using alternate ukulele tunings. The default tuning is the standard GCEA ukulele tuning. If you have a Banjo Ukulele, then the tunings are still the same, so this will work. You will find presets for alternate tunings on the right side. For other methods on how to tune your ukulele go to our Ukulele Tuning Methods page. If you want to check out our old ukulele tuner go here. Below the tuner there are instructions on how to use it. If you want a preset that is not on the list, or if you have a comment or question, say so below in the comment box.

How to Use this Tuner: To the right there is an image that explains the numbering of the strings on an ukulele. Click on the note for the string you want to tune and then turn the tuning pegs on your ukulele and match it up with the note that is being played. Adjust the volume on your computer until it is close to the volume of the sound your ukulele produces so one sound does overwhelm the other. In this tuner there are two tones provided, a natural ukulele sound, and a computer generated frequency that is exactly the correct pitch, use whichever you find easier to use.

Thanks, ShredderTed. That's what I was doing, then I spotted 'G4' beside G on the online tuner and that's what made me wonder. I discovered last night a friend has a Korg tuner so I'm going to have a try with that to get me started. I'm sure I'll be back with lots more questions!
Hey Tiny Tiger, first welcome to Get-Tuned.com! To answer your question; no. G is not created by fretting the 4 fret on the G string. In order to play the note G on the G string, all you have to do is pluck it without fretting anything, that is why it is called the G string. G4 is referring to a specific G note. There are many G notes, each one being in a different octave. For example G5 is a G note that is one octave above G4. You don't have to fret anything in order to tune your ukulele using this tuner. Just play the strings open (without fretting anything) and tune the strings until they match the note the tuner is producing.
OK. Received my uke today and haven't the foggiest about tuning! Looking at your online tuner - great idea, by the way - is G created by pressing down on the G string on the 4th fret (G4)? Sorry to be so dumb!

Hello. I want to thank whoever put this ukulele tuner here on the Internet. I am an accidental ukulele owner. Last week...on a whim...I bid on a ukulele on Ebay and "won" it for a great price. I had found this tuner page a few days ago, so when my ukulele arrived at my house about thirty minutes ago I was able to tune it. My 68 year-old ears aren't what they once were but I think I got it tuned after a couple of false starts. Now on to learning my first song so I can embarrass my wife, three sons and eight grand kids on Thanksgiving. Again, thanks for the tuner. I'll be back.
Sorry valhallen, for some reason Apple chooses not support flash objects on their platforms, so until they change that or until I make a java version, you're out of luck. Sorry!
I have been trying to actually use this tuner but the only thing I've been able to access is descriptions of what it does and how it works. No way to actually use it. Is it because I'm on my iPhone trying to do this?
I love this tuner! I use it all the time.
This is great for in the class as it keeps going as you go around and help kids
