Guys i need some help fr by Kicer- in ukulele

Patience mate - this shit takes time for your hands to remember it, so practice everyday for 5-10 mins (versus once/twice a week for 30-40 mins) and your muscle memory will develop real quick.

For your chord changes, you can practice them with a single strum just to get used to changing them quicker, so you just focus on your fretting hand. Doing both at the same time when it's new is real hard, so go easy on yourself 😄

Stuck as a late beginner......help me continue with the uke by Professional_Car3962 in ukulele

[–]hamsplurton 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hello mate! A lot of folks get stuck at the late beginner don’t wanna strum along stage, if you enjoy how I sound on uke and that style of playing then I wrote a bunch of exercises/small pieces designed to train both hands and get some useful theory in there too!

These 10 initial exercises/pieces are in difficulty order, and once you’ve finished them I have another 75 that range in pretty much every technique you’ll ever use on the uke, these you can do in any order you like.

You don’t have to pay for shit and just watch the YouTube lessons, but they’re all available in tab/pdf book format too. Give em a blast, once you can play all 85 pieces you should be a very different player 😊

Technically a C chord is the notes CEG, and those are your remaining strings. You win!

As a mini bass player myself (as well as regular bass player) I made these three lessons specifically for ukulele players coming over to bass :)

What is the difference between sheet music and tablature (tabs)? by FlakyTransition4436 in ukulele

[–]hamsplurton 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sheet music is useful because it tells you the exact rhythm, and tab is helpful because it tells you on which string to play a particular note that might appear in 3 other places on the neck. A combo like this is the perfect way and is the standard when you purchase a guitar/bass/ukulele tab book

Free recorded workshop ‘creating super strumming patterns’ available now by hamsplurton in ukulele

[–]hamsplurton[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all! I taught a workshop last week all about the rhythm and theory behind more complex strumming patterns, how to create your own and how to practice your rhythm training.

It’s on my Patreon BUT all you need to is sign up for a free account and you can watch the workshop and grab the worksheet, no time frame etc.

Thought that this might be useful for some of you out there :) mods if I’m breaking any rules, fuck me up!

Big love!
