I know I'm sounding like a music teacher, but my advice is learn music and learn music theory. Because once you learn music theory, you don't need anybody to teach you. You can figure things out for yourself. And the sky's the limit, there's no limit. When you don't have the theory background… Byron Yasui

Ukulele for Guitar Players

This book is for current and former guitar players discovering the ukulele for the first time or returning to the instrument.

Ukulele for Guitar Players is a guide to transferring the accumulated experience and knowledge gained as a guitar played to the ukulele. Or exploring the possibilities that the ukulele offer. Covers chords, scale and an introduction to reading standard music notation on ukulele.

The ukulele is both a different instrument than the guitar and at the same time a lot like the guitar.

Guitar players that also play the ukulele find that it gives them a different and fresh look at how they also approach the guitar.
