@2Tommief it is tuned gCEA with the g being an octave higher than might be expected. It is standard tuning for most soprano ukes today. This guy features on some of the Jim Beloff instructional DVD's - when he get's going, Ledward is like the Jimi Hendrix of Uke.
@PaliGap1 He he. Jimi Hendrix of Ukulele. Now Kapana is more of a guitarplayer then an ukuleleplayer. Although Kapana and Henrix is like day and night, they hay one thing in common, talent.
please spell our last name right, it is Kaapana, not Kapana, Mahalo
