Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What tuning does this use?
It's written for standard ukulele, so the chord diagrams match a uke tuned the usual way. No retuning needed.
02Does it work on a baritone ukulele?
The chord shapes are written for standard soprano/concert/tenor tuning. A baritone is tuned differently, so the printed diagrams won't transfer directly.
03Are lyrics included?
It's a songbook, so it's built around playing and singing the songs rather than instrumental arrangements alone.
04Is it hard to play?
It depends on the song, but ukulele arrangements of pop material generally stay in common chord shapes. Knowing your open chords should get you through most of it.
