Today I got a soprano from the store,my wife is going to be mad knowing that. Two hours later I learned how to tune my beautiful hukelele, plus the first four chords, sound so great. When I master it , I 'll sing a love song to her,and I 'll safe. Soon we are 50 years married, so I have some week to practice. Thank you,Master.
(This is concert/ soprano) *HOW TO TUNE: -Recommend a clip on tuner so you can tune it rly quick -There are built in tuners on some ukuleles -sopranos have same tuning but sometimes they tune the smaller ones up a tone from this -the tuning is: 4th string = G (high sound) [the string closest to the ceiling] 3rd string = C (lower sound) 2nd string = E (medium sound) 1st string = A (highest sound) [the string closest to the floor] -goes from ceiling to floor *HOW TO HOLD IT: -hold the uke w your forearm and press the uke against your body and hold the neck with your other hand for a little support ^^Balance the weight of it between the forearm (arm w the hand strumming) and the hand on the neck -OR you could rest the body of the uke on your lap and hold the neck w your other hand *HOW TO STRUM IT: -Usually strum with your 1st finger (there are techniques tho,, like finger styles and stuff but 1st finger is best for beginners) -usually you strum around where the neck meets the body -practice: do 4 down strokes w 1st finger then 4 up strokes to get used to it (make sure finger isn't getting caught on the strings) -practice 2: 1 down stoke, then 1 up stoke repeatedly -practice 3: (this is a common pattern) down, down, up, down, up, down -smth you should study is different kinds of strumming patterns and different ways of playing it -don't stress *4 SIMPLE CHORDS: *PROGRESSIONS TO PUT ON THOSE CHORDS:
This video helped SO much. I had a ukulele just laying around, and today, I finally decided to learn how to play. I went from knowing nothing about it, to learning 8 chords.
I was just promoted to music teacher at my school and inherited 28 ukuleles. Today is the first day I've ever attempted to play and this video was perfect to help get me started. Thank you!
Thank you! I’m thinking about buying a ukulele soon, but I want to know a bit about them before I buy one. Your video has already helped a ton! Thank you!
How's it going? You'll be a uke maestro by now hopefully. Cheers 😊 | close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide [ www.justinguitar.com/ ] & Moderator on JustinGuitar Forum
it's easy to do if you push the C, E and A strings on the 2 fret with your index finger and push the E on 3 with your middle finger. only two fingers get involved
After years of asking for a ukulele my mother just decided to buy me one to give me something to do during all this Covid-19 mayhem. 15 minutes later I had a ukulele and I'm so excited to learn! This video was a great start!
Me too, my brother used to have a ukulele and doesn’t use it anymore, thought I would take it up because it sounds beautiful and, I write my own songs... ☺️ I totally agree with you that it sounds nice/beautiful/amazing
Aliya The Person same. I was at camp and this dude nee how to play and my friend so it seemed like a good idea to learn how to play they also said it eas simple so
Ash Robichaud wow! You're committed!!! Tbh I haven't played an instrument seriously for like four years And it was the Clarinet XD Good luck on the Ukulele!!!! I bet you'd be amazing on it!
Bought a uke from a work colleague but walked past it guiltily every day for months. So I kicked myself up the proverbial backside this morning after mindlessly watching tosh on the tv and followed your lesson. Why didn't I do this before?! 4 chords reasonably mastered. Many thanks Justin.
Thanks man - Picked the Ukulele up for the first time in my life two days ago, got the basic cords together after first 30 minutes and over last couple of days , this video has really helped pull it all together, you're really watchable, straight talking and to the point - Nice One! : )
You're a good teacher! Covered a lot in just a few minutes: Tuning. Positioning. Basic chords. Strum patterns. I'm lovin' this guy and this little instrument. Thanks Justin!
i think i have had my ukulele for about four years or five and just now i feel like learning how to strum an ukulele CORRECTLY 😃 thank you for the clear explanation!
Thanks Justin, I finally bought a ukulele today and your video was so tremendously helpful. Really appreciate the time and effort you put in to making this tutorial and I can't wait to watch the next lesson. Cheers!
I'm probably late to this, but I bought a "Vorson ABS Concert Ukulele" and it's pretty sturdy, sounds great, and holds it's tuning well. It's only $25-29 on Amazon depending on what graphics you choose. The reason they're so inexpensive is because they're made of plastic, which is actually more durable than the wooden ones. It just doesn't look like wood. I'd definitely recommend upgrading if the one you own doesn't sound great and you don't want to spend a lot of money on a higher end one 🙂
Thank you for sharing. I'll be 50 this coming June and I think learning new things doesn't require age. I hope I can play simple songs for my KG3 pupils.
This is really helpful! I'll be returning to this video when I get my first ever ukulele in a week - I'm sure it'll be ideal for my nonexistent skill level. Thank you so much, Justin!
cool, I went to Hawaii once and got a ukulele at Walmart and never played it and then my father sat on it XD. so I got a new one from an actual music store that I never touched until now
GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU! Picked up my old Flying V ukulele that I got in exchange for a bag of doughnuts at Download about 10 years ago and has been sitting in my little girls bedroom for decoration. Given me a strum rhythm to practice to make it less boring, taught 4 chords and an easy sequence to put them into to make a song I recognise. And teaches you how to tune. 3 hours later and I already feel like I can play a song I sort of recognise. I can’t wait to show my little girl in the morning. She probably won’t be at all impressed by my new talent. Really handy video though.
Thanks so much for this great video. I am a music teacher in schools and have been asked to give a ukulele class tomorrow! In all my years of playing guitar (over 30), I am ashamed to say I've never even picked one up, so your video has been mega helpful as a starting point. Many thanks!
I can't decide if my ukulele sounds bad or I am making it sound bad. Probably both. Also my fingers are dying. Idk what I thought was going to happen, but it's been one hour and I'm still not Tyler Joseph.

So here’s my story Earlier today my friend found a ukulele in her closet while she was cleaning it out She didn’t know what to do with it I gave her five bucks for it We were both happy Until I realized I have no clue how to play an instrument I figured out how to play twinkle twinkle little star somehow...... Now I suck even more than when I started. Bye bye
Thank you! Playing the Uke for the first time today and have never played any musical instruments. I was able to catch right on with this video! Very helpful!!!
Hi Justin Just bought a cute little Uke today at a Cashies store. Mint condition and very cute. Found your great video and have it all tuned up nicely. Sounds great and now learnt my first 4 chords😊👏👏👏👍💕Yah. Heaps of fun. I play guitar also so was puzzled at first by the tuning of the uke, but followed your instructions and all worked out well. You are awesome. Thank you 🙏
animeaddict My husband daniel taught me and easier way to play the G Cord. Put your first finger over the first threecords on the second fret and then put your Second finger over the second string on the third fret. It is so much easier to play it that way, hope it helps😄
Bob Lawblawblaw My husband Daniel also taught me an easier way of playing the G Chord, put the first finger over the first three strings on the second fret and then put your second finger over the second string on the third fret it’s so much easier to play it that way
This was wonderful! I've never played the ukelele or guitar or anything. I just tuned our ukelele and gently played the four chords in this video over and over again. Our little kids loved it and my wife said it sounded like her native Hawaii.
Hey Justin, Thanks for these tutorials. I just started to travel longer on the road. I wanna use my ukulele that I got yesterday to basking. I am stoked by the way you explain staffs. Cheers!
I did the same exact thing, lol. I used to play the clarinet back in middle school (don't care much for non-rock instruments now) but there's something intimidating about the harmonica. I want to learn how to play it so bad though.
I bought a ukulele years ago and started to learn but for some reason I stopped. Now during this lockdown I have decided to learn again and I'm enjoying it already :)
I'm A Gøner just bar out the 3 bottom strings with ur 1st finger and 2nd fing on the 2nd string 3rd fret. Complicated stuff but its so much easier than playing with 3 fingers

Nice. Helped me a lot. The only question that arises is, am I using the tip of my first finger to play, or am I gliding the the nail of my first finger over the strings? Thank you
yoyooyasmin YAS TO EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID I’m absolutely smitten i’ll never let you go my smol uke She asked me son when I grow old will you buy me a uke of gold And often I am upset that I cannot play very well but might as well get used to it Ooooh Ooooooh I’ll cut my pineapple :)
I bought my first ukulele yesterday, and found this video which made for a GREAT start!!! I just might be able to do this, lol. A tuner is a good idea, and inexpensive. Working on my first 4 chords and sequences - thanks, Justin!!!
I just got a new ukelele for christmas and I have never played a string instrument at all before. My mom's boyfriend got me some kind of electric tuner to go with it, and I'm pretty sure I have the basic idea down: You select a chord/note you're trying to match, then keep tuning it until the thing on the screen meets in the middle, and you do this for all of the strings. But, whenever I tune it or just move the knobs at all, nothing happens on the screen. I'm sorry if I sound dumb, but again, I've never played ukelele or any kind of string instrument so I'm trying to learn how to tune it from the instructions. Can anyone help me on this?
Without knowing the exact type of tuner it's hard to give advice. I haven't got a uke yet, but I have been doing a lot of research and saving before I purchase my first uke. There appear to generally be two types of tuner, those with a microphone built in and those that clip on to the uke and tune by vibration. The second seem better for the beginner, plus you can tune up in a noisy area. The only thing I could suggest with your tuner is to read the instructions or check the specific model on the Internet :)

*HOW TO TUNE:
-Recommend a clip on tuner so you can tune it rly quick
-There are built in tuners on some ukuleles
-sopranos have same tuning but sometimes they tune the smaller ones up a tone from this
-the tuning is:
4th string = G (high sound) [the string closest to the ceiling]
3rd string = C (lower sound)
2nd string = E (medium sound)
1st string = A (highest sound) [the string closest to the floor]
-goes from ceiling to floor
*HOW TO HOLD IT:
-hold the uke w your forearm and press the uke against your body and hold the neck with your other hand for a little support
^^Balance the weight of it between the forearm (arm w the hand strumming) and the hand on the neck
-OR you could rest the body of the uke on your lap and hold the neck w your other hand
*HOW TO STRUM IT:
-Usually strum with your 1st finger (there are techniques tho,, like finger styles and stuff but 1st finger is best for beginners)
-usually you strum around where the neck meets the body
-practice: do 4 down strokes w 1st finger then 4 up strokes to get used to it (make sure finger isn't getting caught on the strings)
-practice 2: 1 down stoke, then 1 up stoke repeatedly
-practice 3: (this is a common pattern) down, down, up, down, up, down
-smth you should study is different kinds of strumming patterns and different ways of playing it
-don't stress
*4 SIMPLE CHORDS:
*PROGRESSIONS TO PUT ON THOSE CHORDS:
Cohn Clark just use a tuning app on your phone
yoooooo frl same rn. hope you learned from 11 months ago. i am starting today bought this thing for my birthday.
clapotis Lol no they’re not. I have one, and it doesn’t actually tune my ukulele to G C E A
After wanting for years to play the uke I came across Arthurs Uke Blog and it seems to be the top home study system (google it if you are interested)

She didn’t know what to do with it
I gave her five bucks for it
We were both happy
Until I realized
I have no clue how to play an instrument
I figured out how to play twinkle twinkle little star
somehow......
Now I suck even more than when I started.
Bye bye
At least you figured out how to play a little song.
Camdyn Locklear so it turns out, it was out of tune. So when I tuned it and harshly PLUCKED the strings like I had done before, it sounded A
W
F
U
L
Have you learned how to play it a bit more yet? 😂
_shellii nope😂
_shellii it turns out that when I played twinkle twinkle the strings were out of tune😂
Thank you! Playing the Uke for the first time today and have never played any musical instruments. I was able to catch right on with this video! Very helpful!!!
Hi Justin
Just bought a cute little Uke today at a Cashies store. Mint condition and very cute.
Found your great video and have it all tuned up nicely. Sounds great and now learnt my first 4 chords😊👏👏👏👍💕Yah. Heaps of fun.
I play guitar also so was puzzled at first by the tuning of the uke, but followed your instructions and all worked out well. You are awesome.
Thank you 🙏
Awesome! Thank you!
WHY IS G CORD SO HARD TO PLACE MY FINGERS
Ikr, you have to cram ur fingers in there somehow
any tips?
Jojo Animated ikr 😂😂
animeaddict My husband daniel taught me and easier way to play the G Cord. Put your first finger over the first threecords on the second fret and then put your Second finger over the second string on the third fret. It is so much easier to play it that way, hope it helps😄
Bob Lawblawblaw My husband Daniel also taught me an easier way of playing the G Chord, put the first finger over the first three strings on the second fret and then put your second finger over the second string on the third fret it’s so much easier to play it that way
Just started today and can play first four strings pretty well after watching your video. Top notch! Thanks
This was wonderful! I've never played the ukelele or guitar or anything. I just tuned our ukelele and gently played the four chords in this video over and over again. Our little kids loved it and my wife said it sounded like her native Hawaii.
its going from TOP to down get it?
OMG |-/

DNL25 I'm just in it to learn how to play house of gold tbh
DNL25 yeah I get it
DNL25 HA
thanks mate. Impulse bought a uke even though I've never played a stringed instrument.. Can't wait to learn
great! picked it up real fast
+Rad Berries i did the same and i have a really hard time strumming =/
+Rad Berries you say you picked it up real fast. How fast? Did it sound off when you strummed it for the first couple days?
You're awesome. I have no experience with guitars. I play violin and some piano, but I think this will be fun. Thanks for a great little video.
Just got my first ukulele for Mother's Day!!!! Great video!!
Hey Justin,
Thanks for these tutorials. I just started to travel longer on the road. I wanna use my ukulele that I got yesterday to basking. I am stoked by the way you explain staffs. Cheers!
Everybody here wanting to be somebody while im just trying to learn shit
I dont know Anymore hahaha same bro.
IS it in tune?
Amazing video. Didn't take me long to figure out that chord sequence was also used for I'm Yours by Jason Mraz
Thanks. You're such an awesome teacher 😊😊😊😊😊
I just wanna learn from this dude cause he seems great.
I bought a harmonica (key of g) and haven't learnt how to use it. A lesson on that to get me started would be awesome!
I did the same exact thing, lol. I used to play the clarinet back in middle school (don't care much for non-rock instruments now) but there's something intimidating about the harmonica. I want to learn how to play it so bad though.
You are an amazing teacher! Love your personality as well!
Thank you so much started practicing in lockdown and my kids and wife love it. Cant wait to show the rest of the family.
Thank you, I just got my 8month old grandson his first uke and we are going to learn to play together ♥ God bless you ♥
Me: Yayyy Ima be like Tyler!
Also me: I can't do this! *sobs*
Keep practicing and get a teacher
I cant like because I wanna keep it at 69
Chloe Hughes mmmeeeeeee
Same ..... same
lol thats the only reason im here *sadness noises*
Great video, man! I LITERALLY just started playing the ukulele and your videos are very helpful! Thank you :-)
I bought a ukulele years ago and started to learn but for some reason I stopped. Now during this lockdown I have decided to learn again and I'm enjoying it already :)
Is anyone else suffering because they can't play g chord for the life of them
I'm A Gøner me
I'm A Gøner just bar out the 3 bottom strings with ur 1st finger and 2nd fing on the 2nd string 3rd fret. Complicated stuff but its so much easier than playing with 3 fingers
I just got it... keep practicing.. your get it 👍🏻
Yup I am struggling so much with the g chord oml
Grace Haynie - Haha, very true. So much much so that I almost went full out Pete Townsend last night while trying to 'master' 3 Little Birds. 😤😋
Wow, youre a really good teacher!❤️
My ukulele is coming in next Tuesday. It’s Friday where I live. 🌺
Just bought one from a garage sale!! So excited to learn it!
Ukulele. I can now add that to the list of instruments I own but fail to play.
I don’t even own a Ukulele but this tutorial is satisfying.
I’ve been trying to play the ukulele for years and all I had to do was look on RUclips when I was a little bit on track

Thanks for the video. I'm a lefthanded guy that has never played an instrument. I have long thin fingers. I am having problems getting my fingers on the strings without hitting the other strings. Any suggestions? Thanks Harold.
practice more. and more. .
This is a common beginner issue and will improve with practice and time. Can I recommend you visit the community - there's many good folk in your position and you can share tips and help there: community.justinguitar.com/

Clear down-to-earth presentation, lovely.
This is so helpful! Also, to remember A C E A i use Great Chimps Eat Apples.
+Amelia L goats can eat anything hahah

I use green caterpillars eat apples
i use good chefs eat all
How about My dogs have fleas?
Nice. Helped me a lot.
The only question that arises is, am I using the tip of my first finger to play, or am I gliding the the nail of my first finger over the strings?
Thank you
lllt in in
I want to learn songs to be dodie, Tyler Joseph, and cavetown. We can’t forget cavetown (rob)
Yasssss cavetown
yoyooyasmin YAS TO EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID

i bought a ukulele just because i listen to cavetown songs.
Lmfao I'm tryna be chloe moriondo
Especially cavetown
I bought my first ukulele yesterday, and found this video which made for a GREAT start!!! I just might be able to do this, lol. A tuner is a good idea, and inexpensive. Working on my first 4 chords and sequences - thanks, Justin!!!
9:57 “hey how you doing i’m doing just fine i lied i’m dying inside” does that melody reminded only me about THAT vine?
Lol yeah
I agree
I should be studying for my math test? WHAT AM I DOING HERE!?!? I mean I have a ukulele, but seriously what the heck am I doing here?
I believe that is called stalling. lol
+Hawaii Girls..... yeah...
+Sarah Ong dude same!
+Sarah Ong SAME i dont quite have a ukulele yet cause i just ordered it but I have a maths test tomorrow and GUESS WHO HASN'T REVISED
Ssssaaaaaammmmmmeeeee
great tutorial thanks!
That was great. Thank you. It's 8pm and I bought a ukulele at 3 this afternoon. Trust me when I say I'm so glad I found you. ;)
btw, that first chord song set sounds exactly like intro to "somewhere over the rainbow" by izzy.
Had a dream about a Ukulele, now I must have a Ukulele. It's such a wholesome intrusment.
I just got a new ukelele for christmas and I have never played a string instrument at all before. My mom's boyfriend got me some kind of electric tuner to go with it, and I'm pretty sure I have the basic idea down: You select a chord/note you're trying to match, then keep tuning it until the thing on the screen meets in the middle, and you do this for all of the strings. But, whenever I tune it or just move the knobs at all, nothing happens on the screen. I'm sorry if I sound dumb, but again, I've never played ukelele or any kind of string instrument so I'm trying to learn how to tune it from the instructions. Can anyone help me on this?
Without knowing the exact type of tuner it's hard to give advice. I haven't got a uke yet, but I have been doing a lot of research and saving before I purchase my first uke. There appear to generally be two types of tuner, those with a microphone built in and those that clip on to the uke and tune by vibration. The second seem better for the beginner, plus you can tune up in a noisy area.
The only thing I could suggest with your tuner is to read the instructions or check the specific model on the Internet :)
Your uppermost string should be tuned to G, then C, then E, then A at the bottom.
