  • Most critical review

    Good intro to theory

    I am an intermediate uke player. If you are a beginner and want to play tunes, this is not for you. Try YouTube, Cynthia Lin is excellent. Beyond basics, it introduces a little theory which is why I bought it. It's ok, but my gripe is that it often assumes that you play guitar.

  • These books are good and idiot proof

    Got this book for my son to help him learn the ukulele I bought him a ukulele before I got the book unfortunately him and me haven't had time to look at either because at the beginning of this week he broke his leg and ended up in a+e came home in plaster but it'll be a good book and he will learn quick and I plan to take up the instrument also soon
