This book has such straight-to-the-point instructions, I was playing chords or melody in no time at all! The tablature is extremely easy to read. And playing along with the CD is really fun.

Really enjoying this book. All the songs in it are great, just the kind of music I want to play. I think folk songs are easier to sing for us who can’t sing so well than contemporary pop. I like how the book has both the chords for strumming and the tab to play melody. The recording is slow enough to play along with, with some practice. I found the first finger picking pattern on page 96 makes a great finger exercise to learn to play melody. Love the old timey photos, too.

This is the 2nd instructional book I have purchased.
With the first book, I put down my Uke for months before attempting again.
I tried again with Ignoramus. In one short afternoon, I have learned how to tune, 3 major chords and 1 easy song.
This book is golden!

Pretty and a good guide to playing, I guess, I went to the music store in Gloster, to get an electronic tuner, and I was seduced by the he Ukelele, that he sold me,
Akala, he played it for me, I’m a failed classical Bassoonist! Thank you, Tom Eaton
