First ukulele and first song.

ItsMrPitchy · Feb 3, 2011

I was curious what other ukulele players first uke was and their first song on the ukulele.

My first ukulele was a Stagg us10 soprano and the first song i learnt was '5 years time' by Noah and the whale.

A Kala lacewood/spruce tenor to 'play' Radiohead's "Creep". Still a favorite...

Koaloha pikake soprano and an easy strum version of White Sandy Beach. It turned out to be good for my fingers to get used to hitting bar chords and that Bb chord shape. Really tough at the time though.

Resurrecting an old thread like it's my job.

Lanikai-LU21 soprano (from Amazon, lol), Hidden in the Sand by Tally Hall. It's nothing but barred chords; what a great choice for first song, eh?

Hmmm...well, I play B major barred; it's easier for me.
