What if I told you that by understanding two chord shapes you could play nearly any jazz standard? That's exactly what shell voicings are for! We can use these three note chords to highlight the most important part of the harmony in the chord and say a lot while playing a little. This is also a great way to understand what makes chords different. If you're looking to dive into playing jazz ukulele learning these chord shapes is a great place to start.

Great dive into this topic, Christopher! Once you understand how chords are built and where the notes live on the fretboard it really opens up endless possibilities. Since I mostly play chord melody or campanella style arrangements I always think about how to best voice the melody first. The real fun starts when you need to problem solve and figure out ways to sneak in the harmony as the melody hums along without breaking up the flow of things. Keep up the great content!

Great lesson! Could you please make a follow up with the other inversion of these shells, so that voice leading can be smoother. By the way the example songs at the end of your lessons are always very spot on and useful! Thanks 😊

Thanks Francesco! The third one that will work is an Fmaj7 as 241x but also some other fun options if you put in string skips!
