  1. Christopher James Friesen –

    Meh.

    It has the content, but it’s out of order. A horrible companion if you’re making comparisons to the physical book. Just buy the paperback. It seems that Hal Leonard is not very invested in providing quality digital content.

  2. Alberto –

    Excellent guitar method.

    This is a complete down to earth guitar method which I’m certain that a six year old can comprehend, and succeed.

    Guitar lesson for a Senior

    This is the book that I have been looking for so I could learn to play like I did 55 years ago. I still have a lot to learn from it.

  4. Stillman –

    Excellent beginner’s resource!

    Solid resource for beginners. Gradual progression in difficulty with popular licks like Greensleeves, Star Spangled banner etc thrown in early enough to keep you motivated. There are youtube support videos for all the tracks that someone has created. All in all a great resource.

    Durable book that is easy to follow

    Great book that is easy to use. My 10 year old son could follow easily. Plus, it stood up to his abuse so overall, a durable book.If this review helped, please let me know by liking it.

    I play better than prince now.

    I bought this guitar book and although I’m disappointed it didn’t include an actual guitar and 30 free hours of instruction for the price, I now can play better than Prince, May he Rest In Peace.

    Could be more clear about fret position for self-taught learners, however is great book and I have made much progress in just a month.

    Shown to professional guitar player

    I shown this book to a professional flamenco guitar player who is also my Spanish teacher and he said that this book will allow me to go anywhere I want to with this book, whether it’s fingerpicking country songs or heavy metal I’ll be able to branch off from this book alone. He also learned from books so he knows a good book when he sees one and he was super impressed with this one.

    Recommended Guitar Book

    This was the recommended guitar book from the music school. We originally bought only book 1, but that went by pretty quick (~2-3months). Recommend to purchase this complete series instead of book by book.

  13. Shane Bland –

    Best book for beginners with old time ethic.

    This is a very comprehensive intro to the guitar. If one were to buy only one book to begin this should be the one. I have gifted it to two others already who were just beginning. For those who do not already read music, this will get them up to primary speed easily. If one were to simply follow this instruction and remain OFF YouTube, they would become proficient. The YouTube gig only complicates the process as well as displays many bad options. Just get a private quiet place and work through it. There is no shortcut, no play in 5 minutes. Just get over it and LEARN it properly. Without that ideal as a guide you will simply have a guitar in the closet somewhere soon. Without the old time ethic of simply settling in to actually learn something students will always give up and drift away from the goal.

    Worked Fantastic For Self Guided Learning

    I am using this to learn at home without in person instruction or tabs. The lessons are easy to follow with what feels like a nice pace. Exercises give good tips to pay attention to.

    Essential Book, but get the one with audio files.

    Must have book for beginners to learn how to read sheet music. Beware, though, that this version does not have the accompanying audio files which makes things less useful since you can’t see how something is played, particularly for the more obscure tunes. Overall, would buy again if I lost it, it I’d get the one that has the audio files.

    Outstanding method book

    This book is outstanding!If you want to teach or learn by method, this book is really hard to beat. By the time you’re through all three sections, you’ll be able to:-Read music-play most any chord in a pop fake book-know more than basic rhythms-know finger picking patterns (including Travis picking)Once done, you’ll be able to pick up just about any guitar songbook and play along.

    Easy to follow

    Grandson wanted lessons, but not in the budget, He uses this tutorial every day and is learning the guitar and basics quickly and at his own pace. Great starting option

  18. TWM –

    Not a bad start

    This is more for a begginer however its lessons do go from very begginers to the experts. In the start it does tell you how a scale is formatted and notes are counted, does spend time teaching you to read them. However thats what I wanted, yes I know the scale (I played clarinet in school) yes I know how to read notes. I also didn’t know how to play a C on a guitar. This is not really for someone who wants to just play songs on this is more for someone who wants to learn a wide verity of songs, from country to rock, classical to metal. If you want to specialize in one maybe this book isn’t for you. However I like this book because its not just a tab book of here is Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name” (its playing on the TV at this time) or whatever song you may want to play.

    Warning – this does NOT come with access to the audio files

    Pay attention to which of these you are buying. I didn’t as I assumed they all came with audio access.If the particular version you are purchasing does not specifically state audio access you will not be able to access the online audio files to play along with.Lesson format seems solid – unfortunately I’ll be purchasing a second copy so I have online access.

    Received promptly and without product bloat.

    I hate going to music stores: limited choices, inflated prices on materials written decades ago, trying to find options sourced from other stores… Modern music outlets just suck.The fact that I can buy the same book online, minus the triple inflated price point because of DRM coded audio books included, is amazing. Wife and sister-in-law will love using this to learn and for me to brush up on my music reading skills that are lacking.

    Good for my kid

    This book was recommended by my 8 yr old’s guitar teacher. She can easily follow this book and learn guitar from it. She is always studying ahead of what her teacher assigns so I like that it is easy for her to go through.

    Hal Leonard’s marketing sucks – Buy books from fundamental changes instead

    So here’s the deal I got exactly what I ordered.There are two versions of the book.One is about 10 bucks more and under the “guitar method” on the front cover, top left, there is (in 10 point smaller type “Audio Access Included”).My book doesn’t have that. I purchased this precisely because the Bass Book came with audio, I just didn’t realise there is a version without the audio. And as others have pointed out, why would you sell a version without the audio.This is pretty scummy, I don’t really mind paying extra (but get this: audio is *free* with the excellent “fundamental changes” books). But having two versions, with no way to get the extra content is just annoying.I went to the Hal Leonard website and there seems to be no option to purchase the audio tracks.Amazon should make it clearer in the listing that there are two versions. So now I am faced with the choice of just using this as is, or returning it (which is a hassle).As the other 1 star reviews might indicate this is just dumb deceptive marketing. Change the cover in a more visible way, or offer the means to purchase the content online. how hard could the latter be? you’d actually make customers happy.Stupid, stupid, stupid.Makes me want to avoid Hal Leonard products in future. And that’s a shame, because the content seems pretty good.

    Helpful for beginners

    I am using this book to learn to play the guitar (a challenge at my age-senior). The book is helpful-it seems to go at the right pace and includes interesting songs from a variety of genres. I like the fact that it uses mostly music notation instead of tabs- it helps to learn to read music. Only regret is that it doesn’t come with the Cds.

    Great instruction/lesson book for learners

    Very good book for learning to play the guitar. Me, my son, and my niece all used this same book and we all really liked it. It is very easy to understand.

  25. Chuck’sTravels –

    Very thorough

    Exactly what I was looking for. I’ve been teaching myself to play and using a lot of online courses but there is nothing that compares to starting from scratch and learning the proper way. This book does not spend a lot of time on form but it does provide the rudimentary basics beginning with basic notes and music reading. If I am ever able to master everything this book has to offer I will not only be able to play guitar, I will be a musician.

    Binding needs to be better quality

    The binding is very weak. I had to replace it almost immediately and that’s kind of annoying. Wish they’d fix that as my guitar teacher stated it happens to most of his students.(I’ve purchased both the print edition and the kindle edition when I lost the printed version)

    I would highly recommend this book to anyone that want to learn to play the guitar!!! I have been playing acoustic Guitar for several years using tabs.. I decided i would like to learn to read music and play it on my guitar…. This book makes reading music and playing it super easy!!! You learn the notes one string at a time, at your own pace…. And it don’t stop there you learn chords,strumming(something i had problems with) and more. I have other lesson books that don’t come anywhere close to comparing to this book…

    Great beginner guitar book, especially for those who want to learn to read notes not just tabs. It also has a code at the front that lets you access mp3 files to play along with the songs included.

    The Best, Most Complete Basic Guitar Method Book

    I have been teaching guitar for more than 40 years, and over those years I spent a lot of time with a couple of other popular guitar methods, specifically Alfred’s Basic Guitar and the similarly titled book published by Mel Bay.In my opinion, the Hal Leonard guitar method is more complete than any of its competitors. I used to teach chords on my own, and strumming and finger picking techniques, and leave the book to teach note reading, but the Hal Leonard book does it all and, most importantly, it seems to introduce new things at the right times in the student’s development.

    okay

    starts off with music notation very confusing! would personally not recommend for beginners unless you have someone educated helping you. still seems good for others, not for me though!

  32. Jaidon –

    Great method for teachers to use!

    I use this and the Mel Bay books to teach beginner students (they are very similar methods, but each set of books include different examples to choose from when teaching). I have no complaints, though I do recommend using these books and supplementing them with your own exercises when teaching.

    Where the notes are on the fret board.

    The book had everything I needed at my stage of learning. Precise and not too wordy. By the time I work my way through the book I should be a good player of the guitar.

  35. bryan g. –

    technical acuracy

    easy to understand. an area that is often not approached by aspiring musicians probably because it can appear daunting, not attractive to the weekender. But can be the most important element for the long term, and rich friendship music can have in store for anyone seeking a buddy.

    A very complete method, covers a very wide variety of topics, can be used as a stand alone method or can be seen as a reference tool.Amazon didnt provide audio, didnt work, so I contacted Hal Leonard and next day they provided me mp3 files.

    Excellent book for beginning guitarist, and for other players needing music reading practice

    This book is good for kids and adults alike. Goes nice and easy, nothing too complicated, but still covers all the basics. Would highly recommend for anyone just beginning to play guitar. It’s also a great refresher for those who have been playing chords awhile, but never learned to read music. I’ve been playing guitar for 8 years, but mostly chords. I never really practiced reading music. My son is now taking lessons, and his teacher uses this book. I’m now learning along with my son. It’s never too late to teach an old dog a new trick!

      would have been 4 stars but no sound files

      At a private teacher I do like this book…. but obtaining sound files is proving to be next to impossible. Of course you can shell out 13.46 for the cd but that seems a little unfair. Anyway, I did find it in iTunes store and purchased it and … viola….the sound files are included and actually will play….. but they are too fast for beginners. My plan was to find these files on my laptop (I know they are not coming from the cloud as they work even when I turn off my wifi) and use the Anytune app to slow them down…. but I can’t find them on my hard drive! They are there somewhere … but I can’t locate them. Anyway, if you are reading this and have found these files please let me know in a review. I would say in the questions section but for some reason I can’t find the “ask question ” link…. ugh.

      The original edition(s) of this classic beginner’s book date back to the 1960s. When I was 8 or 9 years old (1965-ish), my dad bought a beginner’s guitar for me, along with this book. I was glad to see that the book is still around [in an updated edition], and I bought it as a future gift for my grandson… or someone else if he decides he doesn’t want to learn the guitar.

      very good

      My friend wanted me to teach her 8 year old son how to play the guitar, so she asked a retired music teacher what a good book to use is, and he recommended this one. So we each got it and so far I am very pleased with it. I have never known how to read music (I learned to play chords years ago, but never to read music)but this book teaches to read music as you learn which string of the guitar plays which note and where it is on the music staff. I am learning things as I teach my little friend also. I really like this book. It is simple to understand and it is laid out in a way that I (and my student) don’t feel overwhelmed. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about playing than just chords.

      Easy to understand and very helpful

      I’m three years in to re-teaching myself piano with Alfred’s books and I’ve always wanted to play guitar as well so I bought this one. All of Alfred’s books are easy to understand but, as with anything, practice makes perfect. I’ve been doing the lessons for just over a month now and am pleased with my progress. Playing any instrument takes time and practice and I find myself wishing I could play more than three simple lines of ‘Ode To Joy’ but ,as with the piano, I know I’m learning things at this necessary stage and this book is very helpful.

      Not the most inspiring elementary music book.

      This is an elementary level book, which has pictures, fretboard diagrams and standard notation. Many of the songs are traditional ones but others would be unfamiliar to the twelve year old target reader. It was designed to use song files which were not included and not linked so I suppose this means the learner must learn the song before they can hear it played. So I doubt that any child I know would be motivated to practice without strong mentoring from a teacher or family member. At this point I’d say it would not be as effective otherwise.

      As good as ever

      Every bit as good as when it was part of my training in 1965 forming a strong foundation for learning music theory as it applies to Guitar. This purchase is in an effort to show my Son how to fret with all Four fingers.

    23. catherinepb –

      Good method, but not so good theory

      It seems to progress in a very methodical way from one string, two fingers, onto the next string and eventually all fingers. So the student can work up those callouses and build the finger strength gradually. I’m not sure I like how the theory is presented, and so I use a separate book for the music theory. That’s why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars.

      Miss the chord chart

      It is still a good tutorial for learning to read music on a guitar. However, I REALLY miss the chord chart that they used to have inside the back cover. It is now best for only note by note playing.I used this many, many years ago when I was learning guitar, so this has probably been through several new editions since then. But, one of the most useful references was the the index with finger charts for nearly any chord. If I had known that it no longer contained this, I probably wouldn’t have purchased it. Will have to use on-line chord references instead.

      Bought this for our 11 year old daughter, who wants to learn the guitar. I went through the book and brushed up on my cords and note reading so that I could help her. The book makes it very easy to learn the basics and our girl is having fun trying to learn the instrument.

      What my wife used to learn the uke….

      From “Twinkle, twinkle little star,” to “Michelle,” I can hear amazing progress in the other room. She has used the book learning to play beautifully. Easy to follow because of tableture and music, so she is learning how to read music. Unlike many “how to” books, the layout is user friendly and contains the variety she was looking for. As a guitar player myself, some of the advanced arrangements are easily transferred, so we can pick and strum together. A good buy, even without the CD.

      Not as Good as Book One

      I thought this wasn’t has good as Book 1. I couldn’t use several of the songs included for practice. The book included the lyrics and chords for these, without the score, so I had no idea how the melody went. There were other songs with their scores and the instruction was just as good as Book 1. If you like the Hal Leonard Method, you will find the book useful, but be prepared for a little frustration.

      Kindle version doesn’t have audio

      I bought book one and the audio was embedded. I liked it so I went ahead and bought book two even though I am not ready for it yet.The audio is not embedded in this book and there is no code to access the audio. The content is probably as good as book one but you really need the audio as a beginner. I regret this purchase.According to the Hal Leonard website the audio content should be embedded by the vendor so it looks like Amazon screwed this up. I will update if I find out how to get the audio.

      I have had a Uke for some time but finally decided it was time to learn it and Hal Leonard help me accomplish some of that because his way of learning was easy to understand and the lessons helped me to achieve some very good knowledge about my Uke. If you are a beginner this is the set of books to begin with. Good luck you all future Uke players!

      Could be helpful but certainly not a “method” at all!

      I didn’t see any method in the “Method..” – it’s a bunch of scores loosely attached to various subjects like hammer-ons, pull-off and like, but 90% it’s picking notes and nothing else, no strumming, no picking patterns, let alone chord-notes melody or different musical genresThe bottom line, it could give you some additional ideas when you’re already good with the instrument, but don’t try to use it as a self-teach book, go straight for “Ukulele for Dummies” if you really want to understand the instrument

      Good for adults, not suitable for children

      Good for adults but not suitable for children due to the subject matter of some of the songs. “I plunged a knife into her breast” (Banks of the Ohio), fighting and drinking (Sloop John B), drinking (Rye Whiskey), going to jail (Pay Me My Money Down). imprisonment (Worried Man Blues), etc. This is the classic material of folk music and nothing wrong with it, but it is not for kids. For my younger uke students, I like Everybody’s Ukulele Method by Ukulele Mike Lynch.

      Finishing Second Book

      I’m not much of a judge of musical method books but I’ve finished book one and almost this second book and I am learning to play the ukulele. I’ve moved on to sheet music for songs that I’m interested in and that is fun. Most of these “method” books use old public domain music that is not very interesting. There are some online sources for specific songs with uke notation for very reasonable prices. Just look for sheet music.I think that both books of this series have been very useful. There is also a “chord finder” book in the series that is probably worth your consideration.Uke on!

      A lot to learn here, but some missed opportunities.

      After playing through book one of this method in the morning, I took the opportunity to play through book two in the afternoon. The format is the same as book one, and continues where it left off.The Pros, Weakness and Cons for this Ukulele Method:*Continues to have you pluck traditional melodies, learning new keys, notes and bits of theory as you go.*Continues to include traditional notation & tablature for most of the pieces.*Teaches you three major moveable chords, very useful information. The author does not, however, back this up with much practicle application (though there are dozens possible).*Covers hammer-ons, pull-offs and slides, but only provides one piece to reinforce these important techniques.*Covers a few new strumming patterns and techniques: Ragtime & Calypso Patterns and the Five-Finger Roll & Triplet Stroke.*Introduces the chord families of D, Bb and A as well as further exploration of minor keys. At this point, if you’re using this method, you should be used to the fast pace of learning new, sometimes difficult chords.As with the first volume, I think this is an excellent introduction to melodic picking, but does not fully capitolize on the opportunity to add harmonic counterpoint and other techniques of melodic soloing on the instrument. Chording continues to move along at a fast pace, but that is just the author’s approach – though I’d prefer a more gradual approach, with more reinforcement of the principles introduced (a lot of lost opportunity here). However, if you choose this method and follow through with it, you will learn a lot that you can apply to whatever music you choose to learn later on.M Ryan TaylorUkulelePlay.com

      I like the size of the printed music and the fact that it has tablature along with the melody line and also the ukulele chords (and words). It is easy to follow, well written, and a quality book to get started. I play guitar so the chords and strumming came easily. This book starts with melody playing and helps me learn the location of the notes on the strings. It is a quality product. I also bought book 1. Together they cover most of the commonly used keys.

      Good follow up from book 1, however, you really have to have a good grasp of ALL the material in Book 1 before diving into this. Lots of theory is covered and it’s pacing is good. I teach a lot of youngsters and prefer not to teach them in method books with TAB. I get around this by not telling them how to read it HAHA! If there was a TAB free versions of this book I would give it 5 stars.

      Easy for absolute beginners

      I have been playing the ukulele for 3 weeks and having never played any musical instrument before in my life – I believe that makes me an absolute beginner. I love how easy it was to start playing the songs in this book. Made me feel like I could actually play something that was more advanced than children’s nursery rhymes. The tabs are a lifesaver and help me out enormously as I struggle to read musical notes. Definitely recommend this book for anyone who wants to expand their repertoire as they learn.

      Uke book, for the uke… with fun songs

      All the songs in this book fit the uke with its standard tuning of GCEA (high G). Some of the other books I looked at seem to have just taken guitar melodies and then put UKE chords on top, but the melodies then fell off the range of the instrument you have so are unplayable. Not so with this one. Every note is playable on the uke (tabs are provided) and all the lyrics are given. I never saw some of these verses before (btw, turns out that Tom Dooley guy was a jerk after all). This is a great book for sing alongs. Lots of fun tunes: “I walk the line”, “house of the rising sun”, “all my loving”.

      A great start for new uke players, even better for experienced stringed instrument players.

      for an inexpensive beginner uke book, it’s great. There are some really good songs in here and the chord guides through each song and tablature for note playing comes quick, especially if you’ve toyed with guitar for some considerable time. You’ll be playing the uke immediately. A few songs by the Beatles and Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and more. The tablature helps you get the tune if you’re not familiar with a song.

      Good but not for everyone.

      The Bad: I am a music instructor and try and avoid using TAB with beginners. I try and get them to use the black dots…so, as this book contains TAB I would only use it with experienced students or adults who want to work on melody. Thus, the 3 star rating because I can’t use it for everybody I teach.The Good: The songs are cool! It is a good supplement to the Ukulele Book 1 so if you are purchasing that book, this is a good add on to your purchase. If you are a TAB reader, it is fine.

      This is just right

      I am a beginner, and this book is just perfect to carry around with me and practice. I don’t have to worry about charging up my laptop to find ukelele chord music to play outside or in my car or whatever. The only problem is that I have to stop to turn the pages. I don’t have to do that with my laptop. But I like the freedom and light weight of a book. The songs are classic in this book, and great to learn.

      I feel it’s a useless book for someone learning tab

      I play several instruments, but have never learned a string instrument before, so I decided to start learning the ukulele. The book starts by defining very simple music terms which I found silly (like “verse” and “chorus”), But it gives absolutely NO explanation of how to play the tablature. I have no clue what all the numbers on the four lines listed as TAB even mean. I wish it gave SOME kind of explanation of how it all worked. I feel it’s a useless book for someone learning tab.

      I bought this songbook for my beginning Ukulele students. I love the tabulature in addition to the notes. It’s a perfect way to learn the fingerings while learning to read the music, words, & chords. The songs are all familiar. I think it is a good supplement to any instruction books.

      Worth picking up

      If you are a beginner, this is really worth picking up. Lots of great songs, like “I’m so Lonesome I Could Cry,” (Come back, Hank Williams…)

      Enjoying This Book

      I don’t love every song in this book but I do like most of them. The chords are mostly easy and great for establishing a foundation. This book and the 

      Makala MK-S Soprano Ukulele

       were a gift for my wife last month and she sounds great playing the songs.

      Great beginners guild for learning the ukulele and playing songs

      Good song book for Uke

      Don’t get this on your kindle.

      I’m a beginner uke player. Some of these songs are easy for me, but others provide a good stretch. However the kindle format means you have to turn pages to play the entire piece. You can make the image larger, but that cuts off part of the page. I suggest buying the book. I do love the Hal Leonard Fast Track books for uke and harmonica. I’m going to order this one in paper.

      A good basic book for beginners

      wide song selection. easy to see cheats, Print is very dark and high contrast – you can see all the notes even if slightly buzzed on mai tais. Not all the tunes are going to be your faves but you will probably like half of them. Not bad for a book with twenty songs. With the notation, I expect that this book would be very good for duets, one fingerpicking and one strumming.

      Great for Beginner Uke Players

      My daughter loves it and has now learned most of the songs.

      Ukulele book

      I bought a ukulele for my grand-daughter. I grew up with the guitar, I don’t know how to play the ukulele, this books has the fingering charts, however, I’m not sure what sounds are correct…so, the book is great, but the player (me), I still don’t know what I’m doing.

      Just OK

      This book is definitely for a beginner. You can actually get most of this type material for free on the Internet if you will just do a little searching. But the book does serve its purpose and it is a good purchase if you would rather have a book than trying to find some similar material on the Internet. It also makes a nice gift if someone is receiving a ukulele for the first time.

      The Internet Really Makes This Obsolete

      When I bought my first ukulele two years ago, I purchased this songbook. What a mistake. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with the songs. Each title includes sheet music for piano with easy to read ukulele chord diagrams. And the most difficult chord in any of the songs is a B flat–and that isn’t that tough to master. You also get complete lyrics.So what’s the problem? There are only twenty songs, and not a lot of variety: five Beatles songs, two songs each from Elvis, Woody Guthrie, and Hank Williams. Truth to tell, I haven’t opened this songbook since the day it arrived. There are numerous websites where you can print practically any song you want. Why would you spend good money on this? And this songbook says nothing about strum patterns. Overall, it’s just not very helpful. It was a rookie mistake on my part. I wish I had my money back.

      Easy read and to learn the songs

      Such a easy to read and learn uke book. I love that’s it tabs. I don’t play often so not good at uke or guitar but this is a book I can play the songs and pick up no matter how long it’s been since playing

      Easy pop tone for uke

      Pro – I like the strings with the number of the fret on it as well as the chord bars shown for the songs with the words.Con – It could tell you when to play the chords and with what strumming pattern as well as when the picking comes back on. This could be used as a duet with one person strumming the chords while the other person does the picking.

      Not much Popular Songs

      I was expecting popular songs – old and new, but it is the kind of a song book that is nice to have but will be not be in use. I wish for song books like this, there is a way to view the lists of songs.

      Loving the Hal Leonard series!

      We had such great luck with Book 1, we ordered Book 2 and lessons are coming along wonderfully. I also ordered Easy Songs for Ukulele Supplementary Songbook, which my 11 yo daughter LOVES. These books were recommended by her instructor – highly reecommend!

      Purchased for Self

      I did not recognize too many of the songs, and there was not very much variation to the music being played. I recommend using online music/chords/tabs if you want more popular, up-to-date music, or even easy songs like these in the book

    35. Joann W. Layton –

      It wasn’t what I was looking for.

      The book is probably a good book but it wasn’t what I was looking for. I was looking for the old folk songs I learned to play on the ukelele on but the songs in this book were too modern for me.

      Good book but not for me (yet)

      I bought this thinking I can start learning my daugther’s ukulele that she no longer wants. Boy was I wrong ! This book is great, in my opinion once I find the Ukulele for Dummies or Ukulele 101 book.

      Love this book

      The little diagrams with the dots above where you change cords is just what I was looking for. You don’t have to memorizethe D cord, or the C cord, etc. Much easier to play songs without much memorizing.

      Good book

      Good book. It has good songs, but I wish it had more classic songs.It also makes u rate the book and you can’t get out of it so I’m giving it a lower score.

    41. Julie –

      very good

      Great songs, but there are easier versions out there. I am a very new beginner and found some of the cords difficult but all in all this is a great book of songs

      useful for uke players

      I enjoy trying popular songs on the ukulele. Especially when the chord diagrams make it easy to figure out how to play the chords on the uke! More like this.. please!

      Good Beginning Songbook

      This book has a lot of good eawsy songs for the beginning player. It should be used witth the Hal Leonard Ukulele Method, Book 1 to teach students, or yourself, to read notes (or tabs) which ultimately will lead to a better more advanced uke player. The songs can also be played just with chords.

      The book is okay but the song aren’t all that great

      I just wanted to learn to play the Ukulele for fun and bought this in addition to the Uke which came with it’s own book and DVD. This book is okay but the songs are more on the lame side. It was cheap enough but I don’t think I’d buy it again knowing what I know now.

      Starter book

      This song book is a little thin on music and chord charts, it was a good starting point for me but i needed several other books to really get enjoyment out of this purchase.

      Easy to follow

      This is a great songbook for ukulele beginner; with the pictures of the chords right above the text / notations and the selection of the songs almost “guaranteed you will know”, as a complete beginner I had a blast trying them all on the 1st day I picked a ukulele into my hand

      ukelele song book

      I was disappointed that the book was more suited for adults than an 8 yr old child who was beginning to play. The instructions were good, but I did not think I could give it to him b/c of the song selections. Age appropriateness would be good to lidt with this item. Thank you.

      This is a nice book to have for your first song book. Call me old fashion but I like a songbook instead of having to hunt songs on the internet. For the money its a good deal.

    57. Kim –

      Okay

      Nice, simple, with the chords, tabs, and lyrics. Don’t like that you have to stop and turn pages. They could have avoided this easily and included more CURRENT songs. Other than that, it’s okay.

      Very Cheaply made but works

      I have to leave the back stand out all the time, because it is made so cheaply, however IT DOES WORK, just don’t open and close it to many times.
