Uke #6 - Your first 4 ukulele notes

You should be very familiar with these 4 notes already. They are G, C, E and A. Support the neck of your uke but be careful not to touch any of the strings with your left hand. Pluck the first open string with your right index finger and that is your A note. Repeat that with the second open string and that is your E note. Third open string will give you C note and the fourth open string will give you the G note.

I will also take this opportunity to show you the fingers numbering for your left and right hand.

You will be using fingers 1,2,3,4 on your left hand to press the frets of the ukulele. For the purpose of plucking the strings, you will use the thumb and three fingers (p,i,m,a).

Nice, now you have played your first 4 notes and ready for more.
