Reading this thread set me feeling guilty about having an unstrung ukelele hanging on the wall, so I started playing around stringing it up, using a set of guitar strings I had handy.

I ended up using tuning it mandolin/fiddle/banjo style, GDAE, using the top four guitar strings.

It's really fun to play, what with the frets all being so short. Anyone else tried this?

Now, do I still call it a ukelele, or should I call it "a ukelin"...
