No such thing as ukulele strings which are easy to install, but these are no worse than others. Really like the baritone tuned GCEA

I like that I can tune my baritone to gCEA. What I didn't like is the higher tension on these strings made pressing the strings to form chord harder and difficult. It was just too painful to play my baritone, even after using these strings for 4 months. I eventually replaced these strings today with PHD baritone GCEA strings, which I like more.

I’m not sure these are really for a baritone ukulele. It’s for GCEA tuning instead of DGBE, which, okay, fine, but I have to either tune them so low that that they barely hold any tension, or I’d have to tune them so high that I’m afraid they’d snap. Not exactly what I was looking for.

I bought and installed these on a ukulele that came with terrible sounding "original" equipped strings. Some improvement but these are not my favorite strings, too thick and dull sounding. You can do better with Martin clear or gray strings that are also sold on Amazon for about the same price.

I strung one of my baritones for a loaner to a friend with very large hands so he could learn ukulele with his children in the same tuning as a smaller ukulele. I really like Nylguts for beginners as they are rugged, dependable and always a sweet toned. Experts may choose other strings, for myself (probably an advanced beginner or early intermediate) I prefer Aquilla Reds. My wife, who plays better than I do, always uses Nylguts.Usually Baritone ukuleles use a DGBE tuning, But this is a fun alternative.So be aware when ordering that these are high G tunings just like soprano, concert, or tenor ukuleles.Baritone ukuleles are awesome but the ratio of learning material available for these is so much less than samller high g ukuleles.

These strings are perfect for playing a baritone uke with standard tuning GCEA.

I agree with Sam's March 17, 2017, review. These strings were so tight that I thought they'd damage my baritone uke. Because of this, I tried tuning it down by an octave; however, they were then too loose. I've ordered the Aquila Lava strings (gCEA) with the hope that they'll be better suited. I'll be receiving them today, so time will tell. If they're an improvement, I'll update this review and let you know.

I ordered a Kala baritone uke, and liked the way it sounded out of the box, but since the tuning is different from a "standard" uke, I thought I'd swap out the strings with the Aquilas. I've used other Aquila strings and have been happy. It could be that the strings are fine, but compared to the original strings on the baritone, these sound cheesy. Some folks say you can't play a baritone uke like a regular uke, but I beg to differ. Any song you play on a standard uke will be easily recognizable on the baritone.

Love these strings. Shipping was a little late but no biggy. Sounds beautiful.
