Tips on How to Take Care of Your Ukulele

Even if your ukelele is of high quality, like all instruments, you need to care for it. Playing it and allowing all the oils

from your ngers to get in contact with your instrument is a factor along with many others why you need to spoil

your ukulele and give it the necessary attention.

1. Keep It Clean

Clean your ukulele after each time you use it. The sweat and grease from your hands are trapping dust on the

surface of the uke, which deteriorates the condition of the wood. You can use lemon oil and a microber cleaning

cloth to get rid of all the dust and stickiness. Slip a clean rag underneath the strings to clean the board.

2. Avoid The Eect of Humidity

Keep your ukulele stored in about 50% relative humidity.

3. Restring Your Ukulele Regularly

Although this will dier from one player to the other, you need to consider how frequently you play your ukulele

and, based on that, change your strings. Signs you need to change your strings:

• Strings are tired if they can’t hold in place as much as usual, and they loosen too quickly.

• A variation in the strings or strings aren’t as smooth anymore.

• If your ukulele sounds a little dull.

4. Don’t Go too Harsh With The Pick

Learn how to strum without letting the pick touch the body of your ukulele.

5. Use Your Capo Properly

Make sure that your clamp is wide enough while placing it to avoid rough friction with your neck, and similarly,

make sure to unclamp it then remove it, not just pull it o.

6. Use a Case

This is necessary if you want to avoid damaging your ukulele.

7. Handle Your Ukulele Properly While Playing

Pay attention not to drop the instrument.You can cause a lot of damage to your ukulele if you just keep dropping it

every now and then, from simple scratches to serious breaking.

output signal. Press again to exit.

controls to your liking.

Controls

• Volume: For the cleanest signal, set the volume knob as high as possible, without causing distortion or feedback.

• Bass: Boost here to add depth and weight to the sound of the instrument.

• Middle: Turn the middle knob all the way left for a smooth“scooped out”tone at high volume levels.

Raise the middle knob to the right of center to add midrange “bite” to the sound.

• Treble: Boost to cut through the mix. Cut to mellow and subdue the sound.

• Tuner: Use the tuner to tune your instrument.

When the batt lamp lights steadily it is time to change the battery.

To conserve the battery, unplug the instrument and turn o the tuner when not in use.

How To Plug In

Before you install batteries or plug your amp into an outlet, make sure that

all volume knobs or are at zero. The Mini Amp powers ON, once you plug

or install the batteries.

Plug one end of the instrument cable into the jack on the bottom of your

ukulele until it “clicks” into place as far in as it will go. Plug the other end of

the cable into the “input” jack on your amp in the same fashion.

Turn the volume up on the amp as you strum the strings until you reach

the desired volume level.
