Regarding the Ukulele Chord and Scale Books

Folks, if you haven't stopped by Curt's site, do so right now! ..And get his books, they are fantastic. This guy knows his stuff and is able to pass it along too. - - Alan Johnson Proprietor, The 4th Peg

(Regarding QUICKSTART Scale Fingerings for Ukulele) The ukulele book arrived, it must have been chatting with some Christmas cards somewhere.

The books are great!! I am very happy to wrap the books up, and put them under the tree.

My husband and I are both learning to play ukulele and he is also playing a little bit of guitar.  Thanks also for sending the full catalogue. These look like some of the best materials that I have found so far!

Thanks, Laura C.

(Regarding QUICKSTART Scale Fingerings for Ukulele) ... I was looking for blues chording info but your site came up as jazz chords. I figured soon or later I would need jazzer chords so here I am. Plus nobody else is offering more indepth info on the uke, I liked the scale one the best so far.

Thank you RDGauthier

I can highly recommend Curt's Uke books -- I have four of them and they are excelent.

Thank you Curt,

I bought a ukulele a few months back after stumbling across a few people playing it on YouTube.  I’ve been playing around for a while now, and these books are exactly what I need to bring my technique up a level.  Your website and books are definitely a great resource that I’ll be returning to for ideas and help.

Thanks again,

“I agree with everybody about just using guitar chords and dropping 2 strings, but I have found Curt Sheller's book "Scale Fingerings for Tenor and Baritone Ukulele" helpful for practicing scales in different modes.” - - dave (davebough, ezFolk Forums)

“Your chord of the week lessons are great! Really opened my eyes as to what I was doing & has allowed me to figure out the best way to play the chords I need, depending on the arrangement. Ive actually only looked at the first 2 weeks so far, then worked out the 3rd week myself.

I especially like the way that each week builds on what was learned the previous, so you are incorporating all the forms into the exercises!” - - S. (sharp21 at 4th Peg "The Parlor Room" Ukulele Forum)

Aloha Curt,

Just a quick note to say, Mahalo for the quick shipping on the Kala Foldup Ukulele Stand. I'm working on my strums with the help of your book. The arpeggio Fingerings are for when I get some of my lessons down pat and I can move on to them. Mahalo for all your time and effort in putting these ebooks and the information you have on your site. I go to you for the most consistent in quality of information.

Me ke aloha pau ole.

Thanks for the quick processing and delivery on my order. Your ukulele publications are the highest quality I have seen.

I'm just a beginner. Never played an instrument in my life. Now, at age 58, it's time to get down to serious learning. Retired, I now have the time.

Thanks, John

I wanted to pay you a compliment. (Now don’t get a big head!). I have purchased many books over the past 15 years I have been playing and none of them come even close to having the detailed and easy to understand information yours have. I really got a chance to get some practicing in and am finding your books to be such a great learning tool. I also purchased a timer like you suggested and my practice sessions the past 4 days have been my best in years. Take care.
