Not bad for a $30 ukulele. The sound has really grown on me and I'll probably get a better baritone one day.

Here's "Close to You" again, but on the Rogue Baritone Uke. It's one of my favorite songs to play on there because it translates so well from the tenor. Some songs just wont work, but this one does.

where do u get ur tabs?

[Ryrod]

@fcap6 I actually never had the tabs for this. I just learned it from Dominator's tutorial. Search for that, it'll help a lot.

[fcap6]

@Ryrod Yeah that's where I learned it but it's different.. How did u learn crosscurrent?

[Ryrod]

@fcap6

For "close to you" I took the basics from Dominator's tutorial, Aldrine Guerrero's version, and Guting's version. Look those up.

Crosscurrent took a long time because I had to watch a ton of videos. Guting has an amazing version up and Aldrine has a couple too.

Good job. I have a rogue soprano and I can't play that at all. You should do a tutorial on that :)

[Ryrod]

@Ayri23

Check out dominator's tutorial. It's played on a tenor, but I use the exact same fingerings.

copy and paste this in after youtube(dot)com

Dude, thanks for the video. I'm really interested in purchasing a Baritone Uke. I love the fact that it's almost portable like a Uke, yet, it can produce an awesome full size acoustic guitar sound
