The most common tuning is GCEA. The "top" string is the 4th, which is tuned to G. the next is the 3rd string, which is the thickest, and is tuned to C, and is the lowest tuned string. next is E, then A. When strumed from the top down you get the old "my dog has fleas" There is a chart here: http://www.tikiking.com/uke_lesson.html As trader Pup mentioned above, you can hear how each string should sound here: http://www.flea-mkt-music.com/e-tuner/default.asp Hope this helps!
