Quick answer

Frettify converts readable PDF sheet music into standard high-G ukulele tablature by recognizing the score and creating an editable ukulele tab draft in the browser. The fourth string is the re-entrant high G, not a bass string.

Start from a printed or exported sheet music PDF instead of retyping the melody on the ukulele.

Get standard high-G gCEA tab with four lines in A–E–C–g order.

Keep the re-entrant G string as a high string, not a low-G bass string.

Turn guitar or treble-clef melody notation into a ukulele tab draft you can edit.

Download Guitar Pro files and tab PDFs

After conversion, review and edit your tablature, then download a Guitar Pro (.gp) file for editing and playback or export a PDF of your tab for printing. These downloads are available across Frettify's supported instrument conversions.

Questions musicians ask

Can Frettify convert any PDF into ukulele tab?

Frettify is designed for readable sheet music PDFs. Clean scans and exported digital scores usually work better than blurry photos, handwritten notation, or heavily marked-up pages.

Is this high-G or low-G ukulele?

Standard high-G only. The fourth string is re-entrant G4, shown as a lowercase g where labels distinguish octaves. Low-G ukulele is not supported and is not silently substituted.

Can I convert guitar PDFs into ukulele tab?

Yes. Choose Ukulele before conversion. Frettify maps the written melody onto standard high-G. Dense guitar arrangements may still need simplification.

Start converting music in Frettify Studio.

Upload a readable PDF score with Ukulele selected, generate standard high-G tab, then refine the draft in the browser.
