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 microber 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 Eect of Humidity
Keep your ukulele stored in about 50% relative humidity.
3. Restring Your Ukulele Regularly
Although this will dier 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.

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.
