Scott, I purchased your Essentials e-book recently, and I'm now mucking about with the fingerpicking sheet. What I really love about your resources - apart from the fact that the e-book for instance is marvellously comprehensive - is the immediate usefulness of them. I have been learning the ukulele for about three years, first with the tenor, now with the baritone (which will definitely be my main instrument). Your resources, both paid and free, give me so many avenues for building my musical understanding and playing ability. Thank you!
Nice clear teaching style. And I LOVE the camera angles when showing both left and right hand! Super nice tutorial. Thanks very much!
Thanks so much, Susan! I'm starting my summer break as a high school biology teacher, so I'll be making several new videos in the next few weeks. :-)
Happy playing,

I just found your page and tools this week and I am really impressed. I love the math of music and it should be for everyone who wants to learn. Your tools are well done and user friendly. You even offer many of them free. Thank you for all of the help.
This is great. I ordered a baritone ukulele the other day. Need to keep myself busy during Covid-19 stay at home. Glad I found this and will be going to your website. Thank you.
I’m so glad I found this video of patterns!
Thnx im going to look at this many times so cool just what i was looking for.
Best Teacher Ever. Thank you!
Thanks Colette!!

Thank you Scott. I have not found any better finger picking patterns anywhere. Much appreciated, especially the introduction of the melody notes.
Thanks Gale! Glad you stuck around for the melody notes part- it shows you're a tenacious learner! Keep up the good learning! :-)
Scott
This is an excellent tutorial! This is EXACTLY the kind of fingerpicking tutorial I've been looking for! Thank you so much for sharing these with us! Gotta go practice these!
Thanks Jennifer!! Three steps to success: 1. Practice 2. Practice 3. Practice. :-)

This site has great tutorials and music theory explanations. Just starting the Baritone Ukulele and I found your fingerpicking tutorial to be clear and helpful.
Thanks a bunch, Richard!

I've been playing uke for a few years and have put off fingerpicking because I thought it would be too hard to understand. This was clear and precise and has helped a ton. Thank you
This is brilliant and very easy to follow. Thank you so much for offering this for free!
Thanks Aaron!

Thank you so much Scott! I know I can do this because when I can’t practice, I miss it! Your video has been a great help to me.
Really like the way you approach beginning baritone uke. I am hooked..
Love your teaching style
This is something we uke players should all try. Get doing it
Great finger picking video - one of the best I've seen, if not the best.
Thanks so much! This was so helpful and really appreciate all the free resources.
Awesome tutorial. Just what I've been looking for. Thanks heaps. :)

Such fun. Great tutorial
Excellent!
This is very helpful, thanks Scott!
Thanks Steve! It's a lot of fun to play that way. :-)

Excellent Scott. I love to fingerpick and that's mainly what I do. This is a great lesson for those who want to expand their horizons on either ukulele, or guitar. Learning to fingerpick even a little is very rewarding. Scott, for those watching this, they can go into "settings" and slow down your lesson which might be of added benefit if they're trying to pick for the first time. Just saying. Thanks Scott!!
I do the slow down trick all the time! Good call, Steve!!!
Happy playing,
Scott
Cool! Thanks Scott!
Steve Douglas !
I'm loving this tutorial. These patterns are deceptively challenging .
I agree, Mary Ann. They take lots of practice to get down. :-)
Happy playing,
Scott
Hello again! I just ordered one of your books and I didn't notice Paypay had my former address. Forgive me if this is redundant but I want to make sure the book arrives at the correct place. Thanks!!
@@maryannryan9423 Thanks Mary Ann! I'll make sure your Toolbox arrives at the correct address. :-)
Hope you enjoy it!
Scott
@@FretboardToolbox Thanks!!! As a singer, the baritone uke is a fantastic, "lazy man's guitar," as I have dubbed it. So glad more and more people are putting out books about it.
Wow, I am having a lot of fun following these!!
Thank you so much, Scott !
Trying to do 2 per day, till I get the right speed and also able to experiment a bit on my own to understand the good and the bad sounds (like you mentioned in one of the comments). But this is really helpful and a great style of teaching! Subscribed. :D
This is so helpful, thank you!
Glad to hear it- thanks for letting me know!!
Happy playing,
Scott
Great job and cool site:! I have both baritone and tenor Ukes:)! Nice picking styles for many different genres:)! Love doing Beatle tunes on a baritone uke!
THIS IS GREAT! Thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!

Thanks Jeff!! I've seen lots of folks linking to the Humble Baritonics on the Baritone Ukulele: Beginner and Beyond page. Keep up the great work!
Scott
I’ve been practicing this every day for the last few months and I love my progress. Number three is a tough one for me!
Keep up the great work! It’ll pay off!!! ❤️
Great teacher!
Thanks Robert! I love teaching just about anything- I've been a high school biology teacher for the past 18 years. :-)

Woww..coool teaching....lthanksss soooooo...from a littl town northern Spain...forever blessingss to U brother
Thanks so much, SwSnAir! ¿Tú hablas castellano? (Yo se que usted tienen varies lenguajes en el norte de España, pero espero que si). :-) En el próximo futuro, quisiera crear un canal nuevo "Fretboard Toolbox Español". No tengo fluidez, pero, como con la música, estoy aprendiendo más, paso a paso, diariamente. :-)
Happy playing!

Scott your diagrams are superb, but is there any detail of what strings in TAB form that you are picking? I have spent ages looking for such Fingerpicking Tutorials, so thanks for making these available.
Thank you for showing that fretboard orientation. I'm cognitively unable to rotate images in my mind, so I'm a complete blank when I look at the typical mirror images of fretboards.
Thanks Rita!!
Happy playing and healthy wishes!
Scott
Just restrung my tenor to dGBE (bari is linear GCEA atm.. lol ye ye) so have to try to incorp this into my daily
No one's gonna tell you the "right" way to string a uke, are they George?! Isn't it fun to understand so many different tunings? :-) Happy playing!
Terimakasih..saya akan belajar
Terima kasih dan terima kasih google translate. :-)
Senang bermain,
Scott
Thank you....great video. I like the idea of adding melody ...where on your website can you get the melody notes with the tool box you speak of? Thank you again!

Great video, man!
What's the picking pattern you're playing when you add the melodies at the end?
Thanks Steven! I think it's a bit of a freestyle using a few ideas from those 10 patterns. The trick is to experiment and remember that when you're experimenting, every sound, good and bad, is being recorded by your brain. The "bad" sounds are just as important for learning as the "good" sounds. :-)
Happy playing,
Scott
This is great! I have a question about what order to play what string. Can you please clarify what order should the strings be played? For example should pattern 2 go like this: 1-D & 2-G & 3-D & 4-D E? What about what string combos to pinch in pattern 3? Thanks.
A lot depends on what chord you're playing and what kind of sound you want, but I end up pinching the G and E strings a lot. If I'm understanding you correctly, I think your pattern 2 order looks good. You should definitely experiment though, because your brain is recording every sound it likes and which ones it doesn't while you're experimenting. You'll likely hit upon some sounds you really like. :-)
Happy playing,
Scott
Is the string tension of the Baritone Uke lower then the Tenor uke?
👍
Do you have similar information for Chicago tuned tenor guitars? DGBE
I do, Ross- they’re my Baritone Ukulele books: www.fretboard-toolbox.com/baritone-ukulele.html
Happy playing,
Scott
Thanks for making the video. I had a question and it'd be great if you can help a newbie like me - How do I know which notes/strings to fingerpick in a given chord? As in how do you choose them? Any rules as such?
Try the patterns in the video, and then play around with them with different songs and then see if you can add little melody lines to then using the notes from the key of the song (the notes in white boxes in Fretboard Toolbox books). I know that’s vague, but you’ll learn the most by experimenting. It’s like when we learned to walk, we just had to fall down a bunch of times to learn what works and what doesn’t. :-)
Happy playing,
Scott
What strings are best for arthritis in the hands and fingers, please
Which brand and model ukelele is this?
Cordoba 20BM. :-)
I’m getting pretty good at this! But, my baby finger always hurts from grounding it.
I’ll bet with practice those rarely used muscles will adapt! Let me know either way!
Happy playing,
Scott
I can’t get my picking hand to relax. It’s stiff to the point it hurts after doing the patterns
Hi Janice,
Learning to relax your hands take a lot of time, so be patient with yourself. You’re using combinations of muscles to pick that are rarely used together in any other scenario. Just work on a few patterns until you can start to feel it, and then take a break. Record how many patterns you could do before it started to feel bad, and then see if you can work up incrementally from there. Learning to play an instrument is a marathon, not a sprint, so don’t feel bad if it takes time to work up to longer practice sessions. :-)
Please let me posted on your progress!
Happy playing,
Scott
What would you say is a good decent baritone ukulele to start with? I do play the guitar. So I think this would easy for me
Hi Steve,
It's really fun to go from guitar to baritone uke, and the baritone can really help open up some ideas on the D through high E strings on the guitar.
I'd ask your question to the outstanding Baritone Ukulele Facebook page that one of my customers runs, if you happen to be on Facebook. They answer questions like yours all the time. They're a really cool, eclectic group of players. If you're interested in that page name, get in touch with me on the "Contact" link of my website and I'll send you the link. www.fretboard-toolbox.com/
It's a closed group, so I don't want to post the link on here. :-)
I don't know tons about the various options out there, but I have a Cordova BM 20 that I really like. I've also got a more expensive Pono MB that should be arriving in the next couple of weeks. :-)
Happy playing,
Scott
FretboardToolbox thank you
No problem, Steve! Hope you enjoy the group, and get some good suggestions. :-)
Scott
Hi. Lanikai is also a nice, reasonable option. I pair mine with aquila nylgut strings and it has a very warm and woody tone to it.
Why do I have so much trouble with no 2?
Because it’s hard!! Just keep plugging away!!
@@FretboardToolbox Thanks
........:)
