So Ive watched the "The First 20 Hours" video and I was practising those chords he uses (G D Em C) and in the video, D is played with 3 fingers. Theres no way I can get all 3 of my fingers to do that, so I've been going thumb over to barre. It works pretty well aside from slowing changes down, but I was wondering if this was "acceptable" or if I should try another way?
About strumming, this is a weird one.
Ive watched a lot of videos on how to get started playing and almost all say that they can show you the chords used, but not the strumming pattern due to legal problems.
Why is that?
All I know about guitar shaped instruments comes from, well, guitars and tab is readily available in both magazines and online tutorials, so what is different about the ukulele?
Lastly, Id like to get a strap of some sort, but I was wondering if there was a consensus on whats good or not? Ive seen the sound hole ones, and was worried that may warp or damage the wood somehow? Can anyone give any tips?
And speaking of tips, do yall have any? Im practicing everyday, and am really loving this things bright tone.
Thanks all
