Not really. There are many differences, but the biggest is probably the way it's tuned. The ukulele uses a type of tuning called "reentrant" tuning. In reentrant tuning, instead of the strings being tuned across the neck from high to low, one of the strings jumps up in pitch while its neighbors drop progressively. Reentrant tuning is found on other stringed instruments including the lute, Venezuelan cuatro and 5-string banjo.

you know, pictures can be deceiving. For that reason, it is very important that you look at the size of a product before making a decision about whether to purchase it. Because miniature furniture can appear to be the same size as full-size furniture, you should be very careful when picking out products. The same goes for paintings--a work that is 30 cm x 40 cm will appear to be the same size as a work that is 120 cm x 160 cm.
