Before we delve to deeply into our ukulele chords let's take a look at the tuning of your ukulele. The resulting names of the chords we play depends on how we tune the ukulele.

Evaluate extra-curricular activities. I realize that little Sally has begged for Ukulele for sale in uk lessons, but if it means you will be living with her when you get old because you didn't save for retirement she might have reconsidered. If you can afford it, great. But if you are struggling financially these types of things need to be the first to go. Not only do they cost you in fees, but there are usually fund raisers,uniforms, snacks, other incidentals, and the gas it takes to get to the activity.

That's because the chords you're playing are in one key and the song was recorded/written in another. Why? Because oftentimes, the chords you find in fake books, song sheets and online sites are transposed into a key that's easy for beginners, like the key of C. The chord progression is the same but the key is different. That's why it sounds fine when you're singing and playing the song by yourself but not fine when you play along with the recorded version.

Buy only the best quality Ukuleles. The top quality ones do not cost a lot and it is worth spending. They will say in tune longer, will be easier to tune and will sound better.

Continue to read those vows over and over again. Jake learned how to play his Ukulele by playing it over and over and over again until he knew what it could do so well that he no longer had to think about it.

The standard tuning for soprano, concert and tenor Ukulele for sale is C tuning which means the four strings will be associated with the pitch of G C E A. The 4th string is G, 3rd string is C, the 2nd string is E, the 1st string is A. That is when you strike the open string it sounds those notes. The G is tuned to the G above middle C on the piano, an octave higher than you might think. The baritone ukulele is tuned to D G B E with the sound going from low to high.

You can use your first finger for all the Uke notes but a more professional approach is to play the notes on the first fret with your first finger, the notes on the second fret with your long finger and the notes on your third fret with your ring finger.

In this easy ukulele tab notation the actual length of the notes are not indicated. Tablature notation often assumes that the reader are familiar with the notated melody but there are ways to notate even the duration of the individual notes. However, this will make the tabs a little bit harder to read.
