Ukulele Lesson for Guitar Players

- Goin over the absolute basics you need to be an adequate ukulele player. It's all about knowing the chords in one key, and then being able to transpose those same shapes and see them in any key. Watch this video to learn where we get the chords from:

A little about me:
Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
He plays and teaches guitar on his RUclips channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

The best Uke tip I ever received was from the Mele Ukulele store in Maui. The strings are the same as the top (highest) 4 strings on a guitar, just with a capo on the 5th fret. With that wisdom, seeking out and understanding the chord shapes made a lot more sense.
Great vid, as always, Sean.
False
@@garyreidmusic Except for the ukulele's G string being an octave up with respect to what you'd expect on a guitar, it is true.
Jesus Christ loves you
Here’s the definition of a gentleman: someone who knows how to play ukulele but refrains from doing so.
After trying for years to learn the Ukelele I came across Arthurs Uke Blog and this appears to be the best home study course (google it if you are interested)
@@dogro7862 It took you years, ukulele isnt that hard.
Cause he is a guitarist
Props to you for linking a 7 year old video of yours. Your memory of your video catalogue should be commended. Are you still getting asked the same question, “How do you stay so fit and handsome into your mid 30’s.”
Hell yeah time to post some covers of riptide
I do have a ukelele laying around for the last 5 months now, and seeing this may want me to get back in! It's a fun and not as stressful instrument indeed!
A few years ago I bought my son a Uke for his birthday. Recently, I had picked it up and taught myself these very same things. You put this together in a really quick and easy format as always...but that is a super handy trick for ultimate guitar as well. Badass man. Keep doing what you do
Thank you so much! Your lessons are awesome! I’m a piano player learning uke and you r really showing how the uke is laid out. Thank u!
Glad you liked it!
informative and entertaining I cant wait for all my knowledge of guitar chords to get in the ay of trying to learn this thing haha. Thanks!
Excellent videos. Every one of them .
Awesome, dude!!
Now all I need is a hammock and a light breeze! Good stuff Sean!!
I remember the chords by imagining that’s a guitar with a capo on the 5th fret
Good point. Guitarists already know the ukulele chords if they just transpose the chord name because the tuning intervals between strings are the same, but the notes the ukulele strings are tuned to differ by a fourth (or fifth if going the other way). I came here to see if this was part of any RUclips video "ukulele for guitar players" tips because my grandchild recently got a ukulele and I just discovered this for myself...and yes, it's well documented in the comments.
This lesson highlights what I learned when I slapped a capo on the fifth fret of my guitar. Nice to be reminded of it again :)
If you are a guitar player, simply play the fifth chord of any guitar chord without 5th and 6th strings of the guitar. For example, C->G, Am->Em, F->C, G->D, etc. You don't actually need to "learn" the instrument and can play it right away.
yeah ukelele its a must to play every now and then. and easy to carry for camp songs :)
Nice
Great intro tutorial. 👍
I'm a mandolin guy but after watching this tutorial...I may have to purchase a Ukulele, very informative and thanks!!!!
I’m so used to guitar that this is just so much tinier than expected
Gréât way to teach. I was playing organ when I was younger From 1976 to 1986🎹 I learn French as Do-Re-mi. I was confused with C-D-E-F.... 😂 I’m getting better. Thanks for great info.🎶👍. Merci , de Nathalie Montréal 🇨🇦
Interesting to see the differences and similarities between the uke and the guitar. I love the sound of a mandolin and am thinking of getting one. Could you do a similar lesson on the mandolin?
Omg. I've been trying to learn ukulele for 2 years and I've not found advice and knowledge like this from anyone else. Thank you! I dont play guitar but this made so much sense to me. Also, advice for barre chords? I cant seem to get them.
haha thanks g, very good explained and well described what kind of instrument a ukelele is hahaha
Capo your guitar on the 5th fret. Only use the 1st four strings (4 highest),
Except for the octave G you have a ukuelele. All the guitar positions in that range
Translate to the uke.
I love that "transpose" feature on UG too...almost as much as I love that you used a KISS song as the example. I knew you secretly loved them...
I’m so glad someone caught that
@@seandaniel23 Ha, I've been ranting on about Kiss and I totally missed it. I need to work out a slow, punishing, Black Sabbath-esque arrangement of "War Machine" on the uke. Or "Unholy". Btw, have you seen the uke version of Paul Stanley's iconic Iceman guitar? www.ibanez.com/usa/products/detail/uict10_2y_01.html
I switched out the high G for a low G. Makes more sense to me.
Yeah- cutting a guitar D string worked fine for me
Try martin fluorocarbon strings for ukuleles, they sound amazing!
Nice video. Hope it inspires people to play. I like to think of a guitar capo’ed at the 5th fret and that I’m playing only the D G B E strings. So the C chord is a G shape and F chord a C shape etc.
Good tip!
If in doubt uke Em brother! 😂👍 Nice vid.
Yes..... I needed a Uke teacher who talks on my wavelength.
I just picture it as the top four strings on a guitar up a fourth.
This was a great video. There was only one thing missing.....you should of played it at the end.
Pauline Follett VonderVall?
Should Have.
I use the same tab site.🙂
'Super negligible'....only in America! ;-)
I have a question: because these strings have this particular tuning, does it matter when I have the third in the bass, instead of the one? I'm coming from the guitar too, so I wondered that.
Ukes sound great... being stamped on.
Hey , which chord to use in ukulele for it to sound like Gminor chord of Guitar !?
Goddamn, this is my kind of video 5s in
You need to do more videos on guitar chords you don’t have any on major or dominant 11 chords. What about dominant 6, or even min or dominant 69
Dominant 69 is my favorite position too
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!!!!!!!!! You actually did it? Thank you so much. My joy knows no bounds right now.
[happy noises]
The cavaquinho rocks
I'm a bit disappointed it wasn't a video of you smashing that ukulele into a million bits.
So ukulele is like start on the 5th fret of guitar?
I bought one too from China plays great.
I expected to receive a tenor but got a concert instead
Sounds like an easy way to get that tenor *and* the concert that you received (especially if you bought on amazon)
My fault really .
They gave the dimensions but the description said it way a tenor concert.
Live and learn I guess.
I still like it.
Don Ho RIP brother.
I play a guitar a little. When I picked up a ukulele, I couldn’t play it. I couldn’t play anything. I was trying to play it like a guitar. But a ukulele isn’t a guitar. Not to mention the strings thickness are not on order from thickest to thinnest
Will this work for an accordion? It's like the ukulele of pipe organs.
Check out David Bruce's '5 composers 1 Theme.' The accordion gets a lot of love.
😎
Play Pearly Shells.😃
Hahahahaa awesome vid!
Not related but I have a question.???
I find Karaoke songs I want to use as backing tracks for the open mic I go to.
How can I transpose the recording to a better key for me to sing and play guitar to.???
Audacity is free software that will change the pitch of most recording formats.
@@edsinrise9803 Thanks Ed I will check it out.👍
I think you are the first person I’ve ever seen play a uke with a pick.
That's a tenor. With a high D.
Do you also use a low D?
4:12 Middle stringer?
Hahaha
Good catch!
If China attacks Hawaii, they can uke them back. Imagine there's no stupid by John Lennon. A nice song played on the uke.
For the uke haters, here’s some listening homework (listen for free so not out of order as a commercial plug I hope) my mate Paul’s band... no guitars were used in any of these tracks... though it is a bit Northern England mill town and less sunny than Florida! ... ukepunk.bandcamp.com/album/i-blame-the-parents
Bring on the sodium
It's late Sunday night, I'm dreading starting the work week, then suddenly I have a slightly soul-lifting thought: Did I win that damn D'Angelico guitar yet? Despite instructions to the contrary, I'm still willing to kiss up to Sean, the greatest, funniest, sexiest, best-haired guitar teacher in the history of guitar teachers.OK, so guitar teachers set a general low standard when it comes to sex and hair, but Sean would have them beat even if that wasn't true. I really like that guitar.
I found ukelele chords for *Le Bal Des Laze* once, but they seem to have gone missing. They seemed to work fine on the guitar, though. (Or more likely I went out of tune, out of key, and was happy not to know this).
Very sentimental song. Jane's ex lover hides in a Shrubbery, fists clenched, watching Jane dance with her new fiancé at the grand ball the Chateau (an English chateau, though) of Lord and Lady Laze. As he stares, he feels himself dying of hate ... And then apparently he murders everyone at some point. I got lost in the translation at some point.
Michel Polnaref picked exactly the church whose sound he wanted for the ambiance of the recording. The organ is a real one, not a form of synth.
Here: ruclips.net/video/tPxajzP-2jQ/видео.html (very pretty song, for all its violent sentimentality)
I thought Paolo Sala used a ukelele in his labour of love (a cover down to the last loving detail of *The Everso Closely Guarded Line* - this ruclips.net/video/DtB4tEAesgA/видео.html ), but it looks like it's some kind of 6 stringed "Italian ukelele".
He produces some sound effects you might enjoy messing around with, using a screwdriver as a kind of "ebow", it looks like.
Just what I was looking for, got a uke to mess around on but so many lessons are geared towards non-guitar players and are too rudimentary,
Thanks for watching!
RIP DON HO.😟
Will learning ukulele help me with guitar?
Kind of... It can because the tuning is similar so the shapes translate but really the best way to learn guitar is on a guitar.
Yes but the chords a different
Try a baritone uke
Title says "Ukulele Lesson for Guitar Players". The "bare minimum" for guitar players is: Play it exactly like a guitar if you were missing the 5th and 6th strings. That's it.
For uke, ukutabs.com, legittt
ukulele basic, loose the pick, and you may as well cut off the g string as you don't like it so much
Now I’m going to put my Daughter’s ukulele to good use...👌🏻Thank You Sir....now go cut your hair and shave your face....👍🏻
Not even a uke master bro.
Is it only me or video quality is really bad
No voicing for diminished chords? And you call yourself a master. Next thing you'll be teaching fake piano lessons. Careful or you'll end with clipping on a clip-on tuner. Please pass the salt
Sir I am sorry to inform you that the video description says basic stuffs and a diminished voicing is not for an absolute beginner or an average hobby player,it says to be an adequate player not a god I mean come on use your brain and don't spread hate everywhere 🙏 I'm sure this video has helped many players 👍
SD, I love you, but you just taught the most lazy ukulele lesson. Bad habits for anyone that wants to play uke.
Please don’t play a ukulele with a flat pick. It really does sound fricking awful Sean. Also you need to strum at the ‘sweet spot’, where the neck joins the body, not over the sound hole. You play the ukulele like a guitarist.
From someone who plays and teaches both. I enjoy your guitar videos, but lay off the ukulele please!
this video is soooooo tripy
If I became the ruler of the world you can be sure the ukulele would be banned worldwide. What a pathetic instrument.
