Learning the uke has been a lot easier than when I tried to learn guitar. I never really understood how chords work and my hands are a bit to small to handle all six strings at once. I was able to learn the strum from my last post, and after realizing I was playing it without the final thumb strum, I fixed the pattern and now have it down.
The chords I have learned so far:
A7
Am
C
Cmaj7
D7
F
G
All of these chords use 3 or less fingers and are rather simple. This means I have learned 7 of the 32 major chords. It's a start. I also find that I have to retune my uke every time I play because the nylon strings stretch like crazy. I am thinking about restringing with Aquila strings that have high reviews and seem very popular for ukuleles. Maybe I should just invest in a electric ukulele, since that is what my ultimate goal is. Definitely things to consider.
