BARRE NO FEAR II

BARRE NO FEAR II

The nightmare of many beginners is the barre. Lets approach it in a simple and gradual way so as not to encounter problems and to know how to use it with cunning.
Lets start with two nice chord , no barre, but they will reveal to us an important tip that will always be valid when we play the ukelele. The chords are Gm and Gsus4, two chords that are easy to find on the neck of our instrument.

Lets play this two chords !

The Tip

Switching between chords can become more comfortable and quicker if the movements of our fingers are kept to a minimum, which is something we should always look for when we switch from one chord to another.
In this case the passage will be made by adding the little finger in the third fret of the first string, without leaving the Gm chord position.

A truly simplified transition between chords!

And now.... Barre !

But now lets get ready to face the first barre that we will encounter within a famous song: DO IT AGAIN , by Steely Dan and we ll find here three chords with easy barre.

CHECK ! The original version of the song and the chords
