Start by securing the string to the bridge securely. This can require a knot, or a wrap technique, or even a small bead on the end of the string. Take the other end of the string and insert it in the tuning peg. Pull tight on the string and turn the peg until the string is taut. You do not want to have more than one layer of string on any of the tuning pegs. Cut any loose ends off the string. Repeat these steps for the rest of the strings on the Ukulele.
