You have a knack for teaching; a skill that is not easily learned. Thanks for the lesson.

Just came to this party 9 years late. I am new to bar chords. Was dissatisfied with the sound I was getting. I stop and start your videos draw out the chords. You have changed my playing thank you

Fantastic lesson! I'm all about working on closed chords, 40s swing sound, and moving up the fret board. These videos are perfect for where I'm at, thanks much!

God, you're an awesome teacher, Gerald. I saw the review of your CD in Issue #27 Uke PLayer PDF, and then I went to your website, and now these lessons, which are right at my level. Buying your CDs now. And you're in MI--I'm in IL. Thank you for taking the time. I'm getting this closed chord stuff thanks to you.

The chord shapes are exactly the same on a baritone uke but the names of the chords are a fifth higher. For example the C bar shape in the video is a G on the baritone - same left hand shape.

Thanks XOsuperior. The ending of the song uses partially closed chords. The F chord I play is a plain vanilla F chord (2010). Then a F#7 (341x avoid playing the 1st string). Then a G7 (453x avoid playing the 1st string). End on a bar C.

Brilliant, Gerald! Thanks. I already use lots of chord substitutions but I've never seen anyone show SWING ukulele and tutorial # 2 is amazing. Made me laugh when you said that open E7 works for blues... hehe Thanks a lot! On to #3!

Hey Gerald! I really appreciate this videoseries, and you are doing a great job of teaching something hard so it becomes more easy to understand. I have one question though. You mentioned how to end the song, but i don't think you thaught us how to play those chords with "closed strings". Do you mind explain that to us? Thanks in advance

When you're playing the E7 and D7 with your fingertips, which finger is on which string? I've paused the video and can't figure it out. I've experimented and whatever I've tried just doesn't look the same. Thanks for posting these swing ukulele tutorials, fantastic! More please.

P.S. Cutting up my fingers on my fluorocarbon strings since I'm using the meat of my my fingers like never before on these closed chords. I'm getting my nylon stringed uke out now. But, it's a good pain. lol

Thanks for the video. It helps a lot. I have a question though. I'm using my middle finger and my ring finger to double-bar the G9 and A9 chords. Will that hinder any future chord learning for swing ukulele, or will it work fine in the future?
@gbross
@gbross 10 жыл бұрын
Your fingering should work fine Butch. Everyone has different sized and shaped hands and fingers. If that works for you and easily get in and out of the chord then you should be fine. If it sounds like music, you are doing it right.
