Learn To Tune Your Ukulele Before You Play It
There’s nothing as boring as playing the ukulele that is out of tune. It may frustrate you and you might think of giving up on your first day of learning how to play the instrument. You must learn how to tune your ukulele accordingly so that you can easily introduce different songs and adjust the tune accordingly. Once you can change tunes, you can play your instrument faster and you can enjoy your newly chosen hobby or profession. 

A well-tuned ukulele has the notes you strum match the song you are listening to or playing. To help you get started with tuning, choose an electronic tuner although you can also learn some tuning tricks online. For instance, you can purchase the Snark SN2 tuner as it can accurately detect the unique tunings of every string and it is also highly durable.

Maintain A Good Posture
The best way to start playing your ukulele is to hold it accordingly. Once you are seated in a comfortable position it can be easy for you to learn and master those expert tricks. A poor posture can also make you strain your muscles and joints. For instance, if you prefer sitting down as you play ukulele, ensure you sit upright and do not arch your back as your back can strain and soon you may start experiencing spinal pains. Always keep your back straight and align your spine to its natural position. You can also hold your ukulele slightly below your chest as this is the most perfect position for it. It can be easy for you to hold the body of the ukulele using your forearm. Remember that the hand which holds down the chords on your fretboard should support the position of your ukulele.

Learn how to tune the ukulele before you play any songs.  Learn the CGFDA chords as they are the most important chords and can help you play different types of songs. Learn these chords using a metronome as this can enable you to increase your speed with time.
