How are mandolins tuned?
And what the hell is a ukelele and how is that thing tuned? anyone?

No, cellos are tuned in 5ths going up also. Sorry to be so long in responding, but I had a life for awhile.Garry Sharp said:You know, if we could turn a thread about tuning a bass into a 100 pager, that would be a REAL achievement
