    Are you getting started with your baritone ukulele? Here are some products that I find super helpful! (FYI, I get a small commission at no cost to you if you decide to buy through one of these links!)
    -Snark tuner: amzn.to/3oB1MHl
    I wouldn’t buy one that says it’s for ukulele because we want one that has a guitar setting, since that’s what our tuning matches.
    -Walker & Williams straps: amzn.to/3cpkjDW or amzn.to/3pAt4yL
    These aren’t the exact same as my strap because they make them in limited qualities, but I LOVE my strap and would highly recommend W&W!
    -Hercules ukulele stand, perfect for baritone: amzn.to/3t7DiZH
    Traditional floor stands often have trouble fitting a baritone, while this one fits any size instrument.
    -D’Addario strings: amzn.to/2MbBr5x
    These are what I use because they were what the local shop had in! I’m not a string nerd, but I definitely like these!
    -Baritone case: amzn.to/36qOsz2
    This is the case I use. While I ADORE the more vintage-looking, hard cases, I’ve found that they just don’t have the same storage as this one. I use the pocket and inside compartment to carry cables, tuners, extra strings, batteries etc.
    -Hard baritone case: amzn.to/3tll4nJ
    Now, if you don’t need the pocket, is there anything in the world more handsome than this case?! I don’t own one myself but if I needed a case for the aesthetic over the storage, I would buy this one.
    -Baritone fly case: amzn.to/3csORVl
    Again, I do not own this, but fiberglass cases are great for if you need to fly with your instrument. Plan A should always be to keep your instrument with you, but if you are absolutely unable, this is the type of case many musicians use.
    -Fishman amp: amzn.to/3tfAN7J
    I can’t tell you how many times I’ve used this amp. It’s perfect for solo performances where I’m playing and singing. I’ve only ever had 1 gig where it wasn’t sufficient, and that was outdoors and there was a waterfall between me and the audience. This is an incredible investment for solo performers, but I’ve also used it in many a small group setting.
    -Music stand: amzn.to/3pCLeQf
    This is the stand I use, and to be completely honest there are things that annoy me about it. But here’s what’s priceless: the easy grip extender thing--I just squeeze and it moves freely. ALSO I will never go back to using a stand that doesn’t have the little metal clips to keep your music in place. Whether you’re playing outdoors or playing indoors with a strong fan, you’re going to regret buying a stand that doesn’t have the metal clips at some point!
    -Cheaper music stand: amzn.to/36qdnCv
    I don’t own this stand, but if you’re looking for a cheaper option, this may be a good place to start! With music stands, you always have to be careful about the weight you put on them. Try not to put large, heavy books on if possible.

    This is a phenomenal guide and I'm at the part in my learning where it makes sense and I can do most of these. So close to being able to make my own song and this knowledge will really help me with chords that work well together. Thanks!!!

    I have been playing bluegrass music for many years but not on a baritone uke. So i just ordered one. In bluegrass the progression is most of the time, 1,4,5 with some variences. This is a very interesting. So, thank you very much for this instruction!

    Thanks a lot, Abigail !!
    Was discussing about this with my brother few days ago when he pointed out the importance of this basic theory behind progresions. You covered it really well and I enjoyed incorporating it into my playing.
    Cheers, from Germany! :-D

    this is awesome!!! i just discovered your you tube channel, and this progression tutorial has opened my eyes , because i have a key chord chart and I didn't know the meaning of the I,ii,iii.IV>V vi vii with the little circle, and how to apply, now I assume I can use to any key and practise all combinations.
    Love it... I have been teaching myself to play the uke , and by far this have been the most enlightening tutorial.

    • @AbigailFlowersMusic

    Hi Abigail, love the videos, one of the reasons I picked up a baritone ukulele as my first instrument. What I wonder is why I can substitute certain cords. Like take a G7 instead of G major or A7 instead of A major?

  • @ripplerider9386
    @ripplerider9386 Před 3 lety

    Way helpful..thank you so much..have a question...if I barr second fret at a/ c/d f/g what cord is that on baritone..also if I fret e/ f/g and d what chord would that be...there has to be more in that tone.

  • @PensandPaint
    @PensandPaint Před 3 lety +2

    Abigail, thank you first for teaching these progressions. I'm a newbie and when you start the 2nd progression and say replace the d7 instead of the regular D, you do mean the D Major correct? I just want to make sure I'm writing the correct notes. Thanks much!

    • @AbigailFlowersMusic
      @AbigailFlowersMusic  Před 3 lety +1

      Exactly! *Technically* if we say just the letter name of a chord, it should mean “major” is implied. But there are definitely times when people are unclear so that’s wise to double check! Thank you for watching, and let me know if you have other questions I might be helpful with!

  • @edt.5118
    @edt.5118 Před 3 lety +2

    Hi Abigail. Where can I find the pdf file for the chord progressions?

  • @hikesystem7721
    @hikesystem7721 Před 2 lety

    Why do they number the chords? Wouldn't it be easier to learn their names (g for example) and use the names?

    • @AbigailFlowersMusic
      @AbigailFlowersMusic  Před 2 lety +2

      Thanks for watching the video! Using numbers helps us spot the patterns when we change keys. You can have the same chord progression (in terms of numbers) in many different keys, but the pattern or similarities aren’t as clear if we only know the letter names of the chords. For example, the chord progression C, F, Am, G looks totally different from the chord progression G, C, Em, D. But in reality, they’re the same progression (1, 4, 6m, 5) in two different keys! So numbers are just another way to understand the chords’ relationships to one another.
