spongebob ukulele image
..
I purchased a spongebob ukulele. I am 17 and mainly got it because it looked so cute. However now I want to learn how to play it, but it doesn't sound right. I have tried tuning it in with a pitch pipe that comes with it.

there is a video of someone playing the exact same ukulele as I have (copy and paste into url)
The strings are like plasticy, are they meant to be like that?
If i got new metal type strings would it make the product better quality?
If I went to a music shop and asked them to tune my ukulele would they charge me?
Thankyou everyone for any answers x
Answer
Your strings are fine. Ukuleles use classical guitar strings, which are nylon.
Tuning it by ear usually yields a better sound. Go to a piano, and tune the strings G, C, E, A. G being closest to your face, and A being closest to your leg.
Pitch pipes suck and are almost never accurate.

What is the connection between the show Spongebob Squarepants and Hawaii?

I've noticed alot of production music for the show is named after Hawaii and alot of episode themes are also connected with hawaiian culture??
Answer
IDK, the animators must have thought that tropical sounding music would help drive the point that this cartoon takes place under the sea, possibly somewhere warm and tropical.
With the exception of a few episodes, like the one where Squidward is treated to somewhat of a vacation with tiki heads in the background, the only thing that is culturally Hawaiian in the show are the music instruments, the steel guitar and the ukulele.
