Three Chord Tips That Will Save You HOURS

[@ericfleming6363]

keep these beginner vids coming, youre actually good at explanations

[@virginiaebeilstein2849]

I thank my God for folk like you due to one of your lessons on chromatic scales I know my fret board better than I ever have and I can pick songs out on my own

[@giannagarda7598]

These tips are great for strumming and are a 'preparation' for fingerstyle, which requires an extra capability - which is to reach a note of a chord in the order it is played without changing the tempo.

[@jasneskis]

Forgot about that. I need to practice it more. Dim chords are really hard. Thanks for the reminder.

[@michaellandreth1392]

Great lesson. I would like to add a suggestion though. On the G Chord. If you use the Pinky for G and the Index for G7. It works really well. As it does for D D7 on the Guitar. Thanks

[@muzakaz]

BAM! EXACTLY HITS THE PROBLEM I HAVE BEEN HAVING! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

[@joandanis8776]

Learned about Uke Circles from a friend, about six months before Covid shut everything down. She lent me a uke, and I took a set of group lessons, then bought my own tenor uke. And then I found your channel! I learned so much from you. Thank you for being a wonderful teacher! Our Delta Uke Circle in BC, Canada has just started up again, and I can actually play along with most of the songs, thanks to your lessons!

[@chrispaulina]

Yes. More tips, tricks, and suggestions please.

[@melanieyehuda8744]

I really enjoy & love how you explain things in your videos....I wonder how long did you spend time until you became an expert ukelele musician.

[@kurtis9496]

I wish I found this video earlier! the first tip has helped me see where I can improve a lot

[@barbararyan2092]

Thanks - this was really helpful! I like your video tips! BTW, you really have a clear, wonderful way of explaining concepts making it so easy to understand.

[@heididagle7425]

Snazzy tip for the change from C to Em! Thanks!! These were all super helpful!

[@elizabethpollock9580]

I don't know if you can see the chat Kevin but your chord tricks, fingering tips and bar chord tricks are very helpful. Thanks again!

[@westonprice3994]

Awesome tips, Kevin, thank you! Cheers from Down Under, mate!

[@wendymcaninch1694]

I’ve just started playing and your lessons are invaluable, thanks for all you do 🙏

[@IThinkImGonnaUke]

Thanks for these tips. These tips are very helpful.

[@sujayanarula3913]

I know where you got that expression from Mr😃😆 Thank you for these exercises, I haven't touch my Uke since long..time to learn some new chords! I am going to use the same exercises on Guitar as I am practicing right now!

[@russellrichins7553]

Thank you very much for these chord tricks--it really helps the mindset to realize there are multiple fingerings for each chord transition. I just picked up the baritone and as a result of your tips, have already sped up changing from G to D (C to G on the uke) or G to D7 by switching from finger 3 to 4 for the G. More of these improvement tips are certainly VERY helpful for we newbies, perhaps much more so than a lot of song tutorials. One thing that I'd really appreciate are tips for memorizing the fret board so that I don't have to rely on tabs to read sheet music. Just a thought.

[@leetayon8791]

Thank you for this very informative, easy to follow video. I especially appreciate the second camera angle.

Greetings from the wintry climes of Basle, Switzerland. Everytime I watch one of your video I learn something new, merci vielmals

[@AllForUke]

Awesome, thank you! Do you have a lot of snow this year? - Kevin | allforuke.com

[@AndreRMeyer]

@@AllForUke no, Basle is known for it's viticulture climate. Every so often we get hit by a snow storm in Mid February - March though. The area is known as 'Das Dreländereck' = Border triangle Germany France Switzerland

[@dfagerstrom3734]

Awesome. Thanks.

[@hikesystem7721]

Great video, thanks. I'm having a great deal of difficulty forming, getting in and out of chords formed by multiple fingers on the first fret. I'm not sure why.

[@tuckeroo59]

Kevin this is great getting these cheat kind of tips. I’m gonna practice them …. Ta

[@wulliepie4141]

great tips! enjoyed that

[@jenniferlanders5741]

Thank you for the tips!! Very helpful.

[@sheilalucas9154]

Hi, great lesson. Any suggestions to help with Em to D7.

[@khantwinzin8188]

These tricks were very useful.

[@SaxeGrove]

I dig your ukulele. I also dig the Pau Ferro, but they are not the same 😄 My guess is you are playing a Mahogany Supertenor

[@chadbochenek2195]

Thank you

[@janegarrison5526]

Any tips for the transition from F to Em?

[@AllForUke]

I'd suggest leading the move to Em with your ring finger. While playing F, have your ring finger hovering over the C string where it will land for Em. That's a tricky chord transition, but I think this will help! - Kevin | allforuke.com

[@garrymacantanaiste575]

Thank you so much for sharing this advice. It makes so much sense.

[@jimcummings4712]

How about using a capo on a baritone? Why,what, how, and does it make it easier?

[@TheSpektacle]

Thanks Kevin, clear, patient explainations. Helpful! Question: how about thumb position? Are there bad habits to avoid? Does one just place the thumb where it's the most comfortable?

[@AllForUke]

Hey Fred - I think this is a great idea for another video. I’ll add this to our content list for upcoming filming sessions. Thank you!

[@markusbu8688]

Tip: Changing between G and Em is very easy if you don't use your index- but middle-, ringfinger and pinky for the Em chord. Question: Tip for changing from Am to Em?

[@ravi3240]

Nice

[@AndreRMeyer]

G goes pinky = Em is fun / or a D# lends itself in becoming a Gm

[@kennyPAGC]

Then I try going from G to Em and RIP.

[@AllForUke]

While playing the G chord, try grabbing C string 4th fret with your pinky to play Em. It may be a stretch but works for some. Hope this helps! - Kevin | allforuke.com

I haven’t watched your videos in awhile - when did you go grunge? You’re too old for that look. 🤣
