It's when the usually lowest string is tuned an octave higher, typical of Ukulele tuning. Click on the link below for sound samples of reentrant tuning vs. standard tuning as it applies to Ukuleles. http://ukulelehunt.com/2008/04/10/ukulele-tuning-notes/ Last edited on Wed Jun 3rd, 2009 06:31 am by DaveVisi |

A 5-string banjo also uses re-entrant tuning. The short 5th string, which usually is not fretted and is played as a drone, is one octave higher that it's string position would indicate.
