Learn The Ukulele Fingerboard Quickly & Easily

I was sitting at the computer. Your program came on without me doing anything about learning the Fretboard. I am a pianist, organist and play accordion and lastly ukulele. I am running out of time am 78 yrs of age but keep music ongoing. I have always wanted to know the names of the keys on the fretboard. After Listening for the first time ever your wonderful presentation sent the light bulb to my brain and I caught the things everything and I was on cloud nine for this info that for many years bothered me not knowing and this will stick the rest of the time God keeps me here. It all clicked and I am just ecstatic and am going to tune in on all your lessons I am a new follower. I just loved your presentation you use words that make concepts stick. THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT TO THE WORLD ABOUT THE UKE I have never had formal lessons on like the other three instruments. All I have to say it is never to late.

You have a gift of explaining complicated stuff to something interesting, fascinating, simple and logical. Thank you so much, Phil.

Many, many thanks! I agonized over memorizing the whole fingerboard several times and finally just gave up on the whole business. Now it suddenly makes sense. This is one of the most useful youtube videos ever.

The man's a wizard!

In a sea of YouTube content where a whole lot of stuff is click bait or a waste of time, every once in a while you come across a video that you watch the whole way through on the first go and it just plain makes things *click.* This video was that for me…! You are a very talented teacher with a knack for making things simple, but not oversimplifying them. Bravo! 👏 👏 👏

Also helps that the fifth fret and seventh fret are whole notes, so you can create a mnemonic for those starting with the letters. Like for eg "Cheer For A Deer" and "Don't Go Before Evening"

THANK YOU! I've been playing uke for over 20 years and not knowing the notes has always been my shame. This was extremely helpful.

Thank you Sir, I am a young student of 56. I am very much fascinated with your lesson. This is YouTube who helped me to get a great teacher like you. Thanks a lot.

Learning basic piano theory makes this so much easier. But this video helped clarify stuff

Thank You ! I was getting frustrated with others complicated explanations

You have no idea how much help you’re giving me. So many lightbulbs lighting up at long, long last!

Coming late to the Uke (60) this was really informative.

Thank you sooooo much! My ears were starting to bleed from my x teaching me this! You explained it beautifully.

You changed the way I aproach the ukulele in under 17minutes, well done

Good video, I didn't want to be stressed and I was able to remain calm, breathing easily and keeping the heart rate down. I wondered what the noise was and I realized I was snoring.

the best teachers are effective teachers… and you sir are effective… thank you!

This is without doubt the most sense and easiest way to learn the fretboard imo,this is the first video ive seen breaking it down simply,it surprisingly made it so more interesting to learn this way,thanks.

All of a sudden it makes sense. Thank you so much.

OmG has a guitar teacher for 2 years never explained it to me all make sense penny drop mate you just changed music for me get on it

I'm gonna be watching this video several times because the whole video is very informative. And, you've answered many questions I've had about playing the Ukulele. I've often wondered if there was a pattern such as the one you have more or less "uncovered" and shown to us, here. TYSM for explaining all this to us. Hope you're still making videos. 👍
