Ukulele

As always, condition is the critical factor. In good playable condition, without any noticable flaws, you could probably get $75 to $100 for the low end models and more the higher they go.

The strings on a normal ukulele are tuned GCEA going top to bottom.

If you have a piano or a G tuning fork, use it to play the note g

then try to tune the g on the ukulele

to sound like the note you pressed on the piano

then do the same with c,e,and a.

That is hard to describe. A well tuned instrument will sound similar to a guitar, only at a higher pitch. When plucked it sounds very similar to a lute.

Condition is going to be a big factor. As well as the 'style' of Martin and the type of wood used to make it. They're are sought after by players and collectors. If it is in reasonable condition, it can bring hundreds of dollars. A high end model in excellent condition can bring in thousands. There is a web site linked below that can provide info on identifying type style, go to the very bottom of the page for the Ukulele information.

The Kamaka Ukulele site lists their HF-4 Baritone with a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price of US$1,295.

The basic song can be sung with a single chord. Choose one that matches the voice, C is popular, and strum away!

Yes, it is available for an ukulele.

The ukulele is a traditional Hawaiian instrument that was based on some similar instruments from Portugal.

It is a 4 string musical instrument used to make music and have fun with.

It's a small stringed instrument like a guitar. You play it kind of like a guitar too. Ukulele is also the Hawaiian word for jumping flea.

The four basic ukulele chords for Train's Hey Soul Sister are E, B, C#m and A when played in the original key. Interestingly enough, the song was not going to be put on the album as it came across as rather flat. The producer had the idea of playing it on a tenor ukulele, and that is what gives it the bright sound that made it popular.

Vintage Martin ukuleles have a great deal of value. If it is in good condition it can be worth several thousand dollars.

It will depend on what sized ukulele and what size guitar as well as how they are tuned. A 'standard' sized ukulele is going to have a higher pitch than most guitars. However, a baritone ukulele is going to be pretty similar to that of a guitar.

Ukuleles are commonly tuned G4 C4 E4 A4, the baritone ukuleles are tuned D3 G3 B3 E4.

I haven't seen a tab or music for the song, but typically it could be played on any ukulele. It is not likely to sound as good as when Jake does it, as the notes are likely to be less 'true' the further away from the head you get. But you should be able to perform a tolerable rendition.

Very carefully! Take a good look at how the current one is installed. Then remove the old one.

Then soak the new vellum for several minutes. Carefully place the rings into place, and be careful not to tear the material. Allow to dry completely and trim off any excess.

There are some more complete descriptions, I'll try to find a couple of links for you.

Typical ukulele strings are tuned at G, C, E, and A. The C string on a normal ukulele is the lowest string on the instrument. That is because the ukulele uses re-entrant tuning where the G string (4th string) is generally a high G one octave above what would be expected and the second highest string in tone next to the A string (1st string). The white C string (3rd string) is usually the largest string and lowest sounding of the four. Low strings are sometimes wrapped with a very fine aluminum wire to allow it to vibrate correctly. It makes it appear white compared to the other strings, which are typically not wrapped, but plain nylon.

Depending on the type of string you buy usually ALL four strings are made of nylon.

Some ukulele players, such as the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole of Hawa'ii, use a low G. The low G, although still smaller in diameter than the C string, is a wound string usually wrapped with silver or aluminum, which gives it the low tonal sound. This is the only time you will see a wound string on a ukulele unless it is a baritone or bass. But on a concert or tenor uke, the large white string you see is simply nylon or gut and is thicker than the others.

The link below shows a complete frequency analysis of a ukulele. It is probably a lot more detailed then what you are looking for, but you should be able to see the range in the various harmonics. The charts also show the undertones involved.

I'm looking for it too. The songs that I know are Country Road and Free.

George Harrison liked the Kamaka ukuleles. He played the concert size as well as the the tenor, both a 6-string and 8-string. He often would go into a music store on Maui, Hawaii and buy every Kamaka in stock to give to his friends. He was known to have given them to John and Paul and recently Paul has been playing his.

The ukulele can be set up to play differently, depending on the style of music you want to play. The standard tuning commonly used today is the C with the strings being G' CEA.

D tuning on a uke is with the strings being A, D, F#, B

DDUUD works quite well :)
