Hi All
   May I suggest Sheep Entertainment for Uke tuning.
(http://www.sheep-entertainment.nl/ukulele/index.html)
   You get a virtual Ukulele which you can play, chords and tabs.
    Worth a look I think.

   Bye, bye for now.

Hi,
  If any one out there would like some inspiration hunt out the Midnight Ukulele Disco. (Sorry, not smart enough to provide a link).
  There are hundreds of tunes of all standards from a public service broadcaster in the U.S.
  The real treat is the original version of Jake Shimabukuru (?) playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". Stunning.

Hi,
  Interesting piece of kit but I don't think it will convert very well.
First the scale length is to long. It would be no different from a guitar.
Second the spacing between the strings will be wider than a Uke. You will need big hands to play it.
  If you are looking for a conversion I would consider a short scale guitar then the only problem is finding a suitable narrow bridge.
  Hope this helps.
