B flat chord is my current headache. Having trouble getting those two barred strings to cooperate. I know it's me and not the uke so I just have to keep on practicing. Thanks Mike for all your help. Your videos are a Godsend!
Thanks for the post ,really enjoyed it picked it up from George's music Idrive Orlando Fla. From there Uke news email. Happy strumming .You r a great teacher.
Yes, Mike's a wonderful uke teacher!...he explains the details in a simple way so that we all can understand what he's saying!..great work Mike!....and keep up these sensational tutorials!...
dear Mike, you have the best uke lessons on youtube in terms of that you explain all the details in an excellent and clear structure. Thank you for it! I have only one question: you number your lessons. But where/how can I find them in the original order if I would like to go through the whole process step by step?
Hi Mike it seems the barre chords are the beginners nightmare of learning stringed instruments, it's also true in my case. I still have trouble with Bm B7 and Bb, sometimes the sounds OK other times not so.Thanks for your "hope" tutorial and see if I get it right once and for all
Hi Mike, another excellent uke tutorial. Thanks. A quick question: Is there a reason why the Bb chord (or B chord and others) is played as a partial barre as I find it easier to get a less duff sound barring along the entire 2nd fret? Cheers and happy strumming to you too.
Ukelele is a much simpler version of the guitar. I plan on picking one up soon.

So if the chord sounds dulled, you have to press your finger down harder? (Sorry, total noob.)
