I've been playing a High G Tenor for just a few months and love it. My wife just gave me a Koaloha Opio Tenor for an anniversary present. It has low G. To me, the Low G string overpowers the rest of the strings on some cords. It will take a while to get used to, but I love having both.

Good point. Your ear will adapt to the low G and you'll adapt to not playing that string so hard so it blends with the rest of them. Congrats on the anniversary and the new ukulele. A wife that buys you ukuleles, she must be an amazing woman.

Also, once I started playing with the low G, I realized it sounds more like a tiny guitar and a uke. I didn't like that I was giving up that quality of a uke's sound where there's this extra high note all the time. About that same time I learned enough uke to realize that one can do Barre chords on a uke. Now when I'm playing a strumming some with low G, I make more of the chords as Barre chords which puts their root note further up the neck. Any Barre chord where the index finger is on the 5th fret or higher makes that low G a Middle C or higher. The Barre chords with low G give a pretty good sound especially on a quality instrument and you don't have to give up that uke sound to get there.

I use both. I use the low G when I need the ability to go below middle C for some melodies and runs. I use the high g when teaching ukulele since that is what most students have. High g is especially helpful when using two finger picking. It give me more melody options so I can use my thumb or my finger to play the melody while playing the chord. Much easier to hit the fourth open string with my thumb when playing a C chord rather than the G on the third fret on the second string. All a matter of taste and preference. I also find that high g provides a great two finger picking sound. High g also give a banjolele more of a banjo sound. So, what do I play the most? I guess it all depends on my mood and the sound I want to create.

Low G vs. High G is such a great discussion. I'm a decades-old guitar player but over the last couple of years I've gotten hooked on uke and guitalele. I saw your other bit about that, too. Recently I upgraded my uke to a Kala Tenor cutaway with pickup. A beautiful instrument and with great sound. I am ready to start doing open mic nights again but this time on uke as I have only done them on guitar. The final answer for me is that you need both. Two songs in particular that I play on uke that really need the low G are James Taylor's Country Road which on guitar is played in dropped D tuning. And to keep the right sound for that song on uke, I transposed it to the key of G. It made the riffs the same on uke as guitar. To get the right sound, I need the low G. Another one is Led Zeppelin Over the Hills and Far Away. To preserve the intonation of that song I also transposed it to G. It sounds terrible with the high G. It's unplayable with high G. One final note of interest to me: these key transpositions that I did turn out to work great with the guitalele. By transposing from D to G on uke, one can play along with a guitar player playing guitalele using the fingerings one would use to play in G. So now my guitar friends can play along on things like Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here where either of us can play either part. Check it out!

I have both, and like them both for different applications. Generalizing grossly here, and with the caveat that this is just my take, the low G lends itself more naturally to scalar or modal improv, maybe because I'm accustomed to instruments that don't use re-entrant tuning. However, the high g really shines for near-banjo rolls, suspended chords, and tighter voicings of altered chords, and (for lack of a better way to put it) just sounds more natural on soprano and concert ukes in particular. If I _had_ to pick one or the other I think it'd be the low G, but that call would be neither obvious nor easy.

Hello Terry. As always thank you for your work. I really appreciate it. In my case (I have been learning to play ukelele for only a year and four months) I started with high G tuning and liked it a lot at the begining. However, as I was improving in my learning I started to find the hight G not that good to play Puerto Rican, African, and other afrodescendent music because I kept missing a string that can give me a bass line. So I bought another ukelele and tuned it Low G. In fact I bought also an electric uke (Godin) and tuned it low G. There are some songs where I still ocassionally use the high G, but most of the time my tuning of choice is Low G. I like tuareg and songhay music from West Africa and I have found much easier to attempt (I still can't do it right) to play that music with a Low G. I hope this comment is helpful to your survey.

James Hill has a great idea about choosing between a high G stringed 'ukulele and with a low G one. Also choosing between tabletures or standard music notations. He used a parallelism: "Is it a Vehicle or is it the Destination?" - If the 'ukulele is your destination, then use high G stringed 'ukulele. Destination here means you only want to play the 'Ukulele. So you should use high G and use tablatures. If it's a Vehicle, meaning, you want to play other musical instruments, then use a low G stringed 'ukulele. Also, use standard notations in playing if the uke is your vehicle in learning more profound music (like classical) so you could translate music you learned in the uke in other musical instruments... You have to answer, Is the 'Ukulele the Destination or It's the Vehicle?

For people who read standard music notation, the high G tuning takes some getting used to. First) The High G/4th string is actually, as UkePro says, the second highest open string in terms of pitch. That makes scales a problem as UkePro says, however, ALSO 2) You have inverted chords to deal with since the 4th string is your bass string in terms of position but is NOT a bass note in terms of pitch....,since I do my own arrangements AND I work many times from standard sheet music, I prefer working with a Low G tenor uke. BUT, traditional Hawaiian styles clearly come from the High G soprano/concert tuned ukuleles...,ahhh, get one of each...,I think the Martin ukes I priced recently were $2,500 EACH...,ahh heck get two of each....,

I have a high G but I really want to play here, there and everywhere, by the beatles, and it needs a low G to maintain the original base line.

Just got a ukulele and starting to get into it. I'm a long time guitar player and love nylon strings. My new uke came with the high g but just seems so different to me. I thought a low G string and didn't even realize it was a thing. LoL Looks like a wound string, will have to check out what gauge. Good video, I subscribed.

Jake Shimabukuro uses High G strings while Taimane Gardner uses a Low G. Learn how to play both. Btw, they both play the best instruments in the world - Kamaka Ukuleles. ONLY made in Hawai'i U.S.A.

Oh good grief. Now I need another ukulele, and the one I just bought, needs a new low G string. LOL! I'm definitely more interested in those extra notes and that prettier mellow sound but I'm heading to Amazon right now to pick out my next concert... My current uke is a true tenor but I am not paying another $120 for a second ukulele anytime soon. That will have to wait until I am making better money... I do like both sounds, but for the moment, I have to choose and I think I'm going to go with low G for now. Just got my ukulele today but I am heading to the music store tomorrow to get this fixed. LOL! (Studied classical piano growing up and all the way into college so it's important for me to have it right from the beginning.)

Where do you get a low g string from?

can I convert my high g to low g? Is there a physical difference between the two?

You just need to replace the G string with a low G string. I recommend replacing all the strings as it'll be more consistent in tune that way.

I was just trying that by just tuning my high G an octave lower. Hard to get it in tune, and it doesn't stay in tune once I get it there. I guess the string is just too loose

the low G is better to sing to, without back up instruments and the High G is better for traditional Uke stuff and standing out in the band with back up instruments
