I have just purchased a new Clearwater Electro Baritone Uke which I am very excited about. It has a lovely tone and a great volume even without playing through an amp. I just need to teach myself new chord names now. Does anyone here play Baritone? Can you advise any good books or sites to trawl through?

Regards

Linda

	lc47 says: 11/14/2011 11:35:24 PM Hi Sherrie My chord changes are getting quicker but I find it difficult to change from F to Bb. Is there an easy fingering I am tuned DGBE. I suppose it will probably just happen with time:) Linda
	rendesvous1840 says: 11/16/2011 9:43:35 AM Going from F to Bb, I leave my index finger in place, and drop my ring finger to bar the 2nd,3rd & 4th strings. At first, it was kinda tricky to keep the bar away from the 1st string, but it comes with time. You need to leave it arched slightly to clear the first string. This also leaves your pink free to play extra notes on the 1st or 2nd strings, such as melody notes, or altered chords like B sus4, etc.
