Me: doesn’t own a ukulele
Me at 1 am: ukulele videos

So true its been 1:10
12:49 you wizard
Samee😂😂😂
Me at 12:58 so almost 1:00 😆
I’m starting with the ukulele and eventually plan to move to the guitar.
Me, too. Although, the more I am learning ukulele, the more I love it. My future guitar dreams may be squashed by this lovely little instrument.
Lovely Video clip! Sorry for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried - Riddleagan Best Ukulele Remedy (do a google search)? It is a good one of a kind guide for learning ukulele for beginners without the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my best friend Jordan finally got excellent results with it.
Im doing the opposite :^
same
I’m doing the opposite.
I started with ukulele when I was like 8. I'm almost 15 now, and I'm learning the electric guitar. :)
:0 that's so cool, I started playing ukulele around 1 to 2 years ago and I'm trying to learn acoustic guitar right now. Good luck on learning to play electric guitar! I really want to learn to play it as well
@@cuandotumedasunagalleta7169 I've been playing acoustic guitar for years and as of today I'm trying out the ukelele! I hope it isn't too difficult.
I'm 22 wanna learn both
@@cuandotumedasunagalleta7169 Which one is better? Learning ukulele first or learning the guitar first?
@@HabibHussain-uy7lg 100% Learning ukulele first, it's wayyy easier and after being able to play ukulele playing guitar is a lot easier and less scary than if you just hopped into playing guitar.
Also, after my comment I got an electric guitar, for me it's way easier to play an electric than acoustic because of the size (it's smaller)
But yeah, ukulele teaches you the basics I feel like and then guitar just comes a little more naturally after that
Sorry if this was too long lmao
I prefer easy to carry around, brighter/lighter/higher pitched tone of ukulele. Also guitar is very loud to me.
Guitar ain’t that loud if you have good control of your right hand
@@damnfreakingsien yes and good control of your strumming
Briley Garcia you can make it super loud, super soft, bassy or trebly, plucked or strum.
This is why guitar is so much more fun in terms or volume & pitch range
@@damnfreakingsien true
Yr weak
1:40 Sports, it's in the game
E - A - SPORTS - IT'S - IN - THE - GAME. so that makes them 7 strings
Lmao 😂
Take the e and a string off your guitar and capo on 5 it becomes a ukulele
No. Then it becomes a guitar with a capo and only four strings.
@@hardyc.lugerth true
Should i do this as a complete beginner? Like 0 experience
@@julz19 on a 6 string acoustic guitar? I would not recommend it especially if you have a branded guitar.
I was a complete beginner a couple of months ago, and now can play easy songs (strumming)
I have small hands, so it's still harder for me to do Barre chords or plucking as I muted most of the strings when I try to practice that 🤣
i played guitar first, I like the sound of guitar much better, especially the ability to play wide range of music from blue grass to classical. For a long time I was too busy to play guitar, one day I saw someone teaching ukulele in my community, I thought well, ukulele's probably easier to get back into it. Now I have a baby, ukulele is much easier to play around her.
Guitar may be loud but I like the wide range of sounds it give. Ukelele is more for people who know how to sing, that's my opinion. And it also might be a little difficult for people with huge hands??
R u joking? Go watch Feng E 😂
ruclips.net/video/K1u35HiKe_Y/видео.html
True. So I should get a ukulele? I sing. I want to learn to play and sing
@@unicorn7384 I think it all depends on your own preference after all. I was just stating my point, I actually can't give advice for that as I'm not a professional with instruments 😊
@@kira_ha i had bought it that day! and i learned it and a 2week ago i got a guitar and learned it as well!
I’m learning to play ukulele I like how smooth and chill it sounds
Wish someone bless me with a ukulele
Not expensive to get into!
The only video in RUclips which gives proper difference between them😂
Thanks for this! Really was trying to get into learning an instrument just for fun but more as a side hobby. Even though I have bigger than normal hands I'm probably going to look further into ukuleles. Just like the sound better even if the guitar sounds fuller.
Actually, I found nylon strings on the ukulele alot harder on my fingers than the steel on the guitar. I find guitar different for two reasons. 1: Due to my skinny fingers pressing certain strings on barre chords requires more pressure. 2: the guitar neck is longer, alot larger. 3: Can require more hand stretch. Both require the same the skill set to play at a high level. But I love the portability and robustness of the uke, and that alone is a huge positive.
That is the thing I tried the guitar of my brother and the guitar can get so unfomfortable because I have to stretch my arms all the time because the guitar body is somewhat too big. Then my brother said well the ukulele is basically the smaller guitar.
Just downsized from piano to guitar to ukulele. Looking forward to building up my repertoire. Love the uke because of its portability and the ease of learning.
The steel strings are more sharp than nylon. You forgot to mention the ability to be transported. For guitar you need a case and a lot of care. An ukulele could be carry in a school bag
It depends on how much you spend on your instrument.
What I found with these instruments is that though they have different tunings, basically all of the songs you know on the guitar you can translate to the ukulele, not using the same chords( though you definitely can do that) but the same chord shapes, the songs would be in a different key but it sounds quite nice translating guitar chord shapes to a ukulele
transposing, but good insight bro
I play both, ukulele is easier to just pick up and play but they both have a different sound that fits well with different things. If I'm going out and I want an instrument to play, I'd gravitate towards the uke because it's far more portable and it works great for just strumming a few chords, but the guitar has more depth and range. I may even try a melody on a recorder, violin or mandolin to change it up, I actually really like the violin but it is very hard to learn, mandolin helps though, feels like a guitar in many ways, but the tuning is the same and the scale length is close too depending on the instrument and seeing the frets helps me visualize the chords and scales. The uke is kinda my go to for a fun instrument I can just pick up and play effortlessly though, maybe one day the others will be just as intuitive!
I've started with guitar and finding it more easier to play. Though, I know that ukulele is easier to play, it doesn't hurt the fingers as it's made of nylon strings. But somewhere I felt I should go with guitar, even my parents also want me to do so. So I heard of my heart and get onto the track. Anyway, love from India 🇮🇳
I'm trying to figure out which one to try guitar or ukelele. I can't figure it out.
Unless there is a guitar you can borrow, I’d start with ukulele because of the price. If you buy from a respectable company you can get a pretty good ukulele for beginners for between $50-$100 USD. Guitars you won’t have such luck.
That said, if you like one, you should eventually move on to the other. It’s really fun.
I’d say guitar because guitars are harder but when you get good at guitar, you an transition to ukelele much better than if you went from ukelele to guitar
@@hopefulhyena3400 dude my cheapest guitar is 150 dollars lmao
@@guitar7279 my acoustic is 60 euros and my electric is 180 euros. my amp is 100 euros.
@@prodbykomrebi nice dude :)
I'd say the difficulty difference really presents itself in fingerstyle. Yeah playing chords, it's really not that much more difficult, in fingerstyle though you start to really notice how much easier it is to have a finger for each string or to be able to just use a thumb and 2 fingers.
I play both, but have been focusing on the ukulele lately. Time to break out the SG. 🎸🙂
i’m planning to move on ukulele. is it easier than the guitar?
@@drabhishektambe1186 Yup ukelele is easier...
I play both, and I like both a lot. I don't think guitar is that hard compared to the ukulele, but I will say that because of it's size I have to hold it differently.
That is the most beautiful, shiny looking Taylor I have ever seen!
A comparision between a small nylon string classical guitar like a 1/2 or 1/4 size and a tenor ukulele would be more fair and probably also more interesting.
I started with a guitar and I regret it. It was really hard I was interested in it but didn’t really love it. I should have started with a ukulele. My guitar has been in my closet for 2 years and never used it. I want to try ukulele but I feel like the same thing will happened again. I’m trying to get back into guitar but I don’t know. And advice?
Motivation and passion. Put your guitar in a floor stand or hang it in the wall where you can usually see it every day in your house. In that way, you will be drawn to play it.
I was a complete beginner when I bought a guitar as in 0 experience. It had been sitting in it's case for almost 2 years I think, and then one day, I persuaded myself to take it out, and start practicing.
I learned through RUclips tutorials. I bought all the materials that could motivate me not to give up on it again. I hang it in my wall, bought several humidifiers and temp monitor, tool kit for changing strings/low action etc etc, I changed its strings to a more easy gauge (as I have small hands 🤣 thankfully, I successfully changed the strings by myself with the help of watching tutorials)
The first few days were very frustrating as I was impatient on getting to know the chords + song in just one sitting 🤣 I almost gave up again, but I told myself that I will practice bit by bit and persevere with it. Changing/switching chords was one of the hardest when starting, not just the strumming, but you'll get there. Just practice little by little, repeat one chord first until your muscle memorizes the shape it made, then gradually increase it to another chord, then switch between them. The pain in your fingers will always be there especially if you'll be like me that play or practices in a couple of hours or days 🤣)
I write the chords/tabs/strumming pattern that I want to learn (from RUclips guitarists that made tutorials) in a guitar notebook or you can do in your phone/computer/tablet/ipad 😊
I can now play easy songs (strumming) as long as there are no barre chords or plucking (my small hands can't do it yet, I tend to mute the strings when I try to practice that chords or play style 🤣)
I suggest you start with an easy piece or song that you really really like to learn, in that way, you will be motivated to master it 😊
I just started a few months ago on guitar, and now I want to buy a Ukulele, so I could bring it when I travel 🤣)
I know this is a long message, but I hope you find it useful :)
If you have more questions, I can be reached at at my IG, snapchat, fb, yt or email, just look for it in my channel here :)
I loved this video 🙏🏻 so informative and easy to watch 😍 subscribed ✌🏻
I really like to sound of ukulele. Different people do have different tastes.
ive decided. i want both.
I gonna buy a Ukelele next week and I choosing it over the guitar because it's easier and takes less time to learn. Also easy to carry. And I don't really wanna put so much time to learn guitar cause most of my time will be invested in study...
I just wanna have some fun time with my friends and sing songs
The ukulele will be perfect for you. Plus down the road if you decide to play the guitar the ukulele will make it easier to transition to
@@Ukelikethepros yeah man i agree,,, i'll go for the guitar after myself into a good university...
@@Ukelikethepros Actually for my AI analysis lot of songs that i store the chord list in my data compare,
I find out Only 3 chord that ukulele can't play but guitar can.
For me there is only one thing that make guitar more difficult it the string that are closer together you have more room between strings on a ukulele and its a blessing for fat finger.
Steel strings "can" be harder on the fingers? You should emphasize that more. They are brutal on beginner fingers compares to nylon.
I have been playing guitar since 14 years now, i cant sing for the life of my so i dived into classical guitar (flamingo, and finger style, playing tremelo and bethovans pieces etc) then bought electric les paul for stage performances. now i feel ukele is something i should learn as it is easier to carry for trips and picnics so planning to dive into that... maybe i should learn to sing.. lol
Is it a little unfair to say that Guitar is harder than the Uke, considering they are difficult because of different things? Cuz for the Ukulele, the difficulty is stretching to play more difficult chords and melodies (As seen in JS's arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody), while for the Guitar, its hard because you have more strings to cover.
Thank youu!!
Thank you Terry I did learn things while watching your video, uk/gutar . I play the uke.
I just bought ukulele because I couldn't play on my guitar _the strings were too high., and even after they have been lowered professionally, I still couldn't start to play it, it was too painful and too high! But now I kind of regret getting it, I'd rather buy another guitar with the lowest strings ever
In the beginning its painful and frustrating and hard but you get over it soon if you keep on practicing
Guitar actually feels easier the more you learn & practice. There is so much you can do with a guitar.
get nylon strings for guitar, it will not be as hard. plus with time, you will get hard skin on fingers from playing anyway.
Get a 10/47 string gauge, will be easier with fingers. It will still be painful especially if you practice few hours to days + if you press down your fingers hard on strings-- that is not right as it will be so much painful on your fingers.
I just started a couple of months ago (self taught, zero experience on guitar). If I can do it, you can do it too 💪
Just be patient with learning, and soon you will be happy with what you learned, either a song or piece you've been wanting to learn or a technique in strumming/plucking/fingerstyle.
Don't give up! You can do it!
Literally going to buy a guitar sooner, i can play the ukulele and i really want to know about more instruments.
im switching to electric guitar, but i love my ukulele i even named it because it's my first instrument lol
i play guitar too. But acoustically I like the Ukulele better
I never played these instruments and I got interest in it so I'm planning to buy a guitar but I'd like to learn in ukelele, too. So which one is the best guys?
Which one you choose?
Awesome video!! thank you!
I recently bought a guitar, I’m having a hard time using it since my fingers can’t reach some strings-
When you’re starting off, your fingers will always feel short! You’ll eventually learn to position ur fingers
Amazing video. Thank you for making this.
Had an acoustic around 14 years ago and tried to learn to play but I didn’t enjoy it because my hand are smaller so some chords were tough, also kinda hated how big the body of it was.
I’m hoping to get a uke for Christmas, I think I’ll enjoy learning to play it a lot more.
So. Did you get it or not? 🙃
Thank you! I play guitar and I've been looking to learn how to play a ukulele and you're channel really helps a whole bunch! :)
I suck at guitar so I’m thinking about learning ukulele first
I play the guitar, but I wanna learn the ukulele
I play guitar extremely well. :)
But I have 0 knowledge of ukulele.
And I want to try ukulele. :)
Instagram? I wanna learn help please!
Guitar forever!
I play guitat. I was wondering about playing a ukulele on vacation to keep my skills up. Can't really pack a guitar very easily. I don't want to break my guitar on a long trip.
I'll receive a guitarlele in a few weeks~^^
Update: I have her now!!😊💕
@@murphy3861 and how is it working?
guitarlele???
His hair is so FREAKING gorgeous 😍
The only difference is that guitar has 6 strings and a ukulele has 4 strings. Both can be tuned differently in the standard E tuning. EADGBE for guitar, EADG or DGBE for ukulele. I played my friend's ukulele and it definitely feels like a small guitar. Rest is none. Ukulele can also be fitted with steel strings too.
I've read that ukuleles often are not built to structurally support the tension of steel strings. Composite strings with metal windings is another thing, but steel-stringed guitars do have some remarkable design to prevent snapping in half. I'd like to know more about that friend's ukulele. Was it a non-baritone tuned to DGBE? I ask because baritones are, among ukuleles, uniquely tuned in DGBE for whatever reason.
Very helpful! I'm going for the uke
Super informative👍
I took guitar lessons for 2 months...
I actually want to play mandolin now.
Guitar is my favorite musical instrument
Im about to buy ukulele or guitar , still thinking which one should i buy ,
I play guitar but I want to learn ukulele so I feel like it will be easier to learn than what I’m used to 🤔🤔
I learnt guitar first. Practiced for like 4 years now. Now today I bought a ukelele. It's easy af
I loved it!
I mena yeh The ukulele is like pretty soft smooth light idk found it better In sound tbh
And I can't play the same instruments you've talkin' about.....😅
Leaving a comment to promote as a thank you. Thank you.
I think guitar is quite difficult and I want to try ukelele first ?
I want to actually sing using these, and I'm currently very confused which one to get as I really wanna sing in it!!! Any suggestions?
Sapphire Cascadia i would go with a uke, u can hear the voice more, but thats just my opinion u might find the guitar better tho 🤷🏻♀️
I would say the ukulele as well. The chords are easier, so you can concentrate on singing better
Bro, the most striking difference is that guitar's got 2 more goddamn strings, therefore more harmony, fuller sound, everything else is secondary
Very interesting
I'm getting a uke and I saw a guitar and played it and it's so hard to play it is painful but I wanna know if a uke is softer or the same
Great video!
2:02 and 2:22
I’m 37 with music background whatsoever. Is it possible to learn now or is it unlikely that I’ll get good at this? And which instrument is easier to learn? Thank you 🙏
Your young at 37. Don’t overthink it, just grab one and start playing everyday.

Is the chords used for guitar and ukelele is just the same. And the placement of hands in frets?
Not the same.
No for the Ukulele its: "Got Ceral Eaters Angry" or GCEA
And for the Gutair: "Every Acid Dealer Gets Busted Eventually" or EADGBE
Can someone provide the chords for "Sitting on the dock of the bay"?
My cousin had a guitar, well I thought it was. By then I realize it was a ukelele.
Off topic but his hair is just magnificent
Hi can you please help me choose between concert with soild top and bone or tenor but laminate wood? I prefer fingerstyle playing
I play ukulele
witch one is better for starters?
Uke
I have to learn an instrument for my university studies (primary school teacher) and I think I like the Ukulele better bit the guitar might be able to cover my horrible singing voice and help me pass the test on playing an instrument and singing 😅
Hey, i have guitalele (ibanez ewp) and i want to play a guitar song which is in open G (D G D G B D) tuning, how should i tune my guitalele to use exactly the same shapes as on guitar? I know it will sound higher but thats the uke spirit
My intuition says me i should tune it G C G C E G but im not sure so im asking
I was confused between which one of these to buy... Can't figure out
same
Is it ... dangerous to play the guitar? Like,will it be painful on the hands?
Definitely not dangerous.. you wont bleed or anything. But it will hurt your finger tips for the first month or two. After that you build calluses and barely feel it
@@JalapenoJoseph ok thanks!
Guys , please recommend me what I should buy , I'm a new player and never played on ukulele nor guitar. I was planning to buy guitar.
I'm 10 years old but I think I can handle the guitar too. Please tell me what to do
@@taitutaitu5978 thanks for the advice
I’m 10 also but I planned to get a uke
Ukelele might be easier to learn
Get the guitar, I think it’s much nicer. I think of you get ukulele you’ll eventually want a guitar.
Hello sir,
I'm just planning to cover song and for that i want to buy a instrument..
Is Ukulele ok for that?
Please reply 🙏
U can cover songs on both! But uke is easier
you can cover any song on any instrument
Yes, a uke (like any other instrument) is ok.
