Scales (Every music student's favorite topic)

This is a single page PDF file with some comments and examples dealing with the scales you're likely to encounter when playing in our group: scales-for-uke.pdf.

Chord Fingering Charts

If you are just getting started with our group, please check out various “how to” resources on the web. Please get a complete fingering chart! Two freely available (you just have to print them) are on the site https://ukuchords.com/. Both charts are 6 pages long and cover more chords than you'll ever need, use or see!
