Complete package: It comes with a protective case for safe transportation to rehearsals or trips. Low action: Facilitates learning basic chords for beginning musicians and children. Useful tips for users: Tuning new strings: New nylon strings naturally stretch during the first 3 to 5 days. If the ukulele initially goes out of tune, it is a common phenomenon. By regularly tuning to standard tuning (G-C-E-A), the strings quickly stabilize. Cleaning and maintenance: The natural matte finish (Satin) does not require chemical polishes. A gentle dry microfiber cloth is sufficient for dust and fingerprint treatment. The correct playing technique: The fullest and cleanest tone is achieved by strumming with the pads of your fingers or a felt pick just above the rosette.
