A Guide to Worth C-6 Tenor Ukulele Strings.

 Strings are numbered 1 to 6;
 From the A string to the G string.
 From your feet to your head,
 Just like the floors of a building 1st floor to 6th floor.

 The G and the E Strings are single strings. The C Strings is a double course of 2 different strings (Tuned and Octave apart). The A strings is a double course of 2 different strings (Tuned in Unison). 


We recommend Worth Brand Premium Ukulele Strings

Brown for a fuller Big Bass Jazz and Rock tone

The Guide below shows what gauge goes where, each string envelope has the size and number on it. Start with the G string and find the envelope with the 0.0224 (6) string in it, put it on your uke. Find the C String envelope with the 0.0205 (5), fit you your uke, then find the envelope marked 0.0319 (4) and fit that, etc etc etc.

Thus all the strings get put on your uke like 6 floors of a building, start at the top with the (6) G string and work your way down though the sizes till the last A string 0.0185 (1) is fitted.
