Quick and easy kit to convert your 4 string ukulele to a high/low G 5 string.
Low G or high G tuning..?
Fitting a low G gives you range and depth, but looses some of that traditional ukulele island sound.
Playing a high G gives you the proper ukulele sound, but wouldn't it be good to get a bit of extra volume and body..?
5 string ukuleles are available commercially, but expect to pay a premium. This simple conversion kit contains the critical parts and instructions you need to convert your own uke into a 5 string.
All you need to supply is a ukulele (with a tie-bar bridge and upright tuning pegs), a drill, 5 and 8mm drill bits and a triangular needle-file (or a sharp knife). The kit contains a special drill and bit, friction tuner, an Aquila low G string and an illustrated guide showing you how to carry out the conversion.
