im tired of playing guitar . and now i want to try ukelele...
thanks for your videos..

[jaidenandrews]

this is a dumb question but how hard do you press on the strings while doing the chords? I feel like I'm pressing too hard because it sounds like the strings aren't vibrating as much as they should

This tutorial helped me so much! I just got a ukulele today, and I had absolutely no experience with stringed instruments at all, but I was eager to learn. This tutorial really helped me understand the basics, thank you!!

Definitely gonna be watching your videos to help me learn how to play one!! thank you !

Wow this is gonna be an easy switch from guitar... These chord shapes are so simple

This is very "doable" for children as young as 4 or 5, and if they learn to sing with it, their ear and singing voice and rhythm is being developed very early. Can you imagine the potential abilities in all forms of music later? Especially if they start that young!

How do you distinguish the soprano, concert, tenor, and baritone ukeleles?

[FairwayJack]

I bought my ukulele in Indonesia...it has steel strings...not nylon ...I can tune each string to the correct note using a tuner app via microphone ....but when I play chords it doesn't quite sound accurate ...could this be due to the steel strings ?? Thx!

[thatonefalloutnerd]

Hey, Can someone help me? my ukulele is in tune and sounds nothing like his!

[JGL_]

Wait I'm new at ukuleles and wanted to buy a tenor, is the chords for a soprano the same as tenor and concert ukuleles?

[StrangeC]

[dreameroftheworld]

[ghaao]

I have an ukulele and it is a little bigger than yours. Does that change the strings or sound at all?
