The related question below talks about the various tunings and strings for an Ukulele.

The mechanical process is pretty straightforward for those that can be done with a simple knot at the bridge end. Those that have a more complex method are still pretty easy. There are a couple of videos on YouTube that show the method of tying the knots.

And remember that it will take several days for the strings to stretch and settle to the point where they will hold the tuning for more than a few minutes.

Use a reference note from a piano, guitar, pitch pipe or use an electronic tuner.

The standard tuning is G'CEA but there are other options.
