    PDF songbooks

    This was a few years ago and I don't remember the details. I found something online. A quick google revealed this: https://www.softwaretestinghelp.com/convert-kindle-to-pdf/ Note that the Daily Uke is copyrighted, so if you go this route, you can not distribute the songs to others, if you...

    PDF songbooks

    I bought the Kindle version of the Daily Ukulele and then converted the ebook to a pdf. A little work dividing it into individual songs was well worth it

    Bari linear string conundrum

    All, I generally play a reintrant Bari and concentrate on campanella stuff, but I'm learning Fred Sokolow's Slack Key Uke songs and love them on a low D, and I'm having problems finding a set of strings that I like. Normally I avoid wound strings like the plague because they have a short life...

    Message In a Bottle for Low D Bari

    Here's a simple arrangement loosely based on Sting's solo performance in London in 1985. I'm not great with getting the correct midi file out (it's too high), but it gives you an idea. The original was in C#minor - I moved it to Am to make it fit better on the linear Bari. If you played the...

    Song Help Request Any John Fahey tabs available?

    I actually have Fahey guitar tab and play a few songs on guitar. I have made several attempts to arrange Fahey songs on uke but they never come out sounding anything like the original. They all have a very big tonal range and the thundering bass and tinkling treble together are sort of the...

    U-Bass Questions

    I am not a bass player, so I'm a little lost - maybe you all can help me out! I recently bought a U-bass (used) and subsequently picked up a Fender B-DEC 30 bass practice amp at a garage sale. When I play the U-bass thru the B-DEC the bottom string is essentially inaudible. I think this...

    Take your uke to the ICU!

    Funny story. Recently spent 3 days in the hospital, 2 of them in ICU. My wife brought in my Pono and I spent 3 days fingerpicking instrumental songs. I claim degree of difficulty points since I had an IV in both hands for the entire time. It was a huge hit. Apparently the bar for what...

    Liloa's Mele (Grandson's Lullabye) by Sonny Chillingworth

    I have adapted this slack key guitar song in Taro Patch tuning to a re-entrant Bari uke. You can use the tab on any uke and it will work if you tune to Taro Patch (lower string 1 from A to G). It would also work well on a re-entrant uke and would have more of the alternating bass which was...

    That Flaming Ukulele In The Sky

    All, I discovered this gem on Youtube and had to do it. I just introduced it at a Uke picnic this morning. I'm not sure about the melody - I can't find it so I tried to transpose it off Youtube but I'm not too sure about the chorus especially. If you know the real notes, please correct...

    Hi, I'm working on a Rob MacKillop fingerpicking piece and I'm a little uncertain about the left hand fingering (I'm left-handed). I put it into Guitar Pro and assigned the fingerings I think are best, but they will require me to practice them so I would like somebody more experienced to look...
