I play baritone ukulele, tuned DGBE, using guitar chords. The following instrument,a YAMAHA GL1 GUITALELE (GUITAR UKULELE) is half guitar, half uke! A mini 6-string guitar that is sized like a baritone uke and plays like a standard guitar.
However, the tuning is pitched up a fourth to "A" at A/D/G/C/E/A. I guessit's like having a Capo on the 5th fret.
Question - if I wanted to play with others (as I do) who might be playing a song in D E and A, how do I achieve the same chord sounds as the other band members? Do I simply transpose to G A D and so on?
