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 KZfaq 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.

If you already play guitar, ukulele is pretty simple to understand. Think it this way: place a capo on the 5th fret of your guitar, forget the low A and low E strings. There you have it, that´s basically an ukulele. Bonus tip: use the uku to train your CAGED system, it will help immensely.

Nicely done Sean... Love the way you breakdown the musical concepts that really tend to be difficult to learn and make them so easy to understand... I have become a better musician because of your wise insights... Blessings to you 👊🏿🌠

I am subscribed because I think you’re a 5-star instructor with a real knack. This lesson is filled with gold, but there’s an accessibility trouble. It seems that the only good fit is for an accomplished guitarist who got that way having completely avoided even an introduction to music theory (yes, I know that includes all the famous rock bands of the 60’s) As a result, it misses being an easily followed lesson in either theory or string play. And yet, it knocks on the door of a room filled with treasure. First, it craves a white board with strings and notes labeled for you to allow people to “see” the theory of the you-kalele. Second, it needs to be broken up into a short playlist to prevent it from becoming an uneven bucketful of golden nuggets of disparate topics ranging from beginner concepts to tips for a performing guitarist who wants to add uke to his repertoire. Please take this as constructive criticism meant for a first-class teacher trying out a new lesson plan for a new instrument. BTW, may I suggest that the mountain dulcimer may be the best instrument for showing an up-from-the-bottom approach to music theory? ( a lovely assistant at the vanna whiteboard would help immensely)..

I'm a beginner on a Concert uke bought only because I have longer fingers and I thought that would be best, a larger uke. Of course as a beginner I'm struggling with finger placement and changing chords, but now that I see you playing a smaller Soprano uke, I am wondering if I should buy a Soprano uke. Would it be easier for me to learn on, do you think? Professional opinion appreciated. Thanks!

Very timely, as I just got my uke here and am going through the steps of relearning the chords. Thank you, Sean! I have to say that the ukulele fretboard started making much more sense to me when I realized that this is basically four high guitar strings in standard tuning capoed on fifth fret (with the G up an octave, but for chord shaping purposes, who cares). Is that a Martin ukulele you are rocking?

Think I'm gonna get me uke soon. Should I avoid the super cheap ones? Gear4music have them for 20 bucks and they look surprisingly good, but I feel like they might not work too well. What price range do they start getting half decent? 50? 100? I can't spend more than £100 on a uke. Ideally not much more than 50 or 60. Thanks.

@AlexanderDekhtyar 2 жыл бұрын

I *just* got myself a Mitchell soprano uke, and these I saw on various sales for about $30 (standard pricing - around $50, I think) - I'd say that they are a very reasonable first uke that avoids being a grotesque souvenir without hitting your pocket too much.

@jimmitchell8768 2 жыл бұрын

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Sean. You can pronounce it however you like, but you can't just go and renumber the strings. At least I vote no.
