Baritone Uke Chords eBook Mel Bay
This is a useful book for anyone who just bought a baritone uke and wants to get started quickly mastering some basic chords. I didn't need this book -- I've been playing guitar for years, and any chord played on the top four strings of a guitar in standard tuning is the same on a baritone uke, so tuned. But even so, my brain thinks in terms of six strings, and I thought I'd find it useful to stare at, and focus on, chords for four strings only. I did -- to a point.The problem is, in its 32-pages, this book will generally show you one version (only) of any chord, like a C chord or C6. There are some additional moveable chords suggested on two pages in back, but only for Major, Minor, and Dominant 7th chords -- no minor 7th, minor 6th, major 6th, major 7th, etc. Of course, a beginner can figure out a lot of additional chord possibilities by just realizing that any chord shown, if it doesn't involve an open string, can be moved up the fretboard.
Yet there are more ways to play a Dm7 chord on a baritone uke than shown here, fingerings which might be preferable, almost necessary, in a given situation, and which you can easily find online. Or, let's say you're playing a song that has a common "C - Cmaj7 - C6" sequence. You may not want to play the Cmaj chord at the first fret, as shown in the book, then jump up to the 5th fret to play the C6 chord, as shown, unless there's a musical reason to do so. So maybe you'd like to -- really quickly -- find some other chords. In that case, you'll end up putting down this book, and looking for another, better resource.

Baritone Uke Chords eBook Mel Bay Reviews
The book was a gift for my brother. HE loved the book and is learning the chords easily from it. He was very happy with it. Would purchase again. Shipped quickly and packaged well.
The baritone uke is really easy to learn for anyone that aleady plays guitar. It is just the top 4 strings of a guitar. This book does a pretty good job of showing how to play songs without those 2 missing strings. I recommend this book if you want to know the difference between guitar and baritone uke chords. The baritone uke is a great tool to write simple songs with.
For the price you pay this Mel-Bay ukulele baritone cord book is excellent starting with basic cords and then moving on to better chords......Different from a normal ukulele chord.......enjoy!
This is an excellent resource for any music student. Although I purchased it for myself to learn to play the uke, I have often used it in teaching theory and music reading to my piano students, especially those who are planning to take up string instruments after learning to read music.
I'm not sure what I was hoping for when I bought this. It's a book of chord charts. Probably good for a beginner but not as useful for someone coming from the guitar to the baritone uke like me.
This book provides large-format chord diagrams showing finger placement for all the chords a beginning or intermediate baritone uke player is likely to use. There are also photos of finger placement for major, minor, seventh, diminished, augmented and ninth chords. Chords are not presented in music notation as shown on the front cover for one chord. Inside the book, you are referred to Mel Bay Fun With the Baritone Uke or Mel Bay Fun With The Baritone Uke Book/CD Set for additional (very basic) information on strumming a few tunes on the baritone ukulele. All of these books could also be used with a tenor banjo or plectrum banjo tuned in "Chicago" or "guitar" tuning.
Some people will find the little book on this page to be useful along with Mel Bay Guitar Chords. The basic introductory information in the DVD accompanying the guitar chord book (i.e., holding and tuning a guitar) are applicable to the baritone ukulele, and many of the finger placements for playing chords are the same. If you quickly compare the chords in the two books you will get good idea of the similarities and differences in playing the two instruments. This would be especially useful if you already play the guitar a little or if a guitar player is teaching a beginner on the baritone uke or tenor banjo. Where the chords are different, the baritone uke chord could also be used as a simplified chord on the guitar. This might be nice for beginning guitar players where the complete guitar chord is tough to play. The guitar book DVD sometimes presents these simplified chords as alternatives where guitar chords using five or six strings are presented in the book.
The chords are presented in the same order in both books until the sixth chords, which are reversed in the uke book with the seventh augmented and diminished fifth chords in the guitar book. The movable and modern rhythm chords in the guitar book are replaced by a less extensive summary of movable major, minor and seventh chords on the baritone uke. These could be used as simplified movable chords on a guitar.
Because it was a 1961 printing, the first thing I did was get the yellowing pages carefully copied and lightened; then "archived" the book itself. (The tenor guitar version now sells for around $75). To have photographs of hand positions alongside the diagrams was a brilliant idea! I am not a really physically-skilled person, so this was the perfect book to learn from. Several times in my life, I had tried to learn to play ANY stringed instrument, and failed. Thanks, Mel! "You done good".
