  • Welcome to Ukulele School! This is the Ukulele Chord Tutorials for Beginners Series! In today's video, we are learning how to play B7 chord with the proper hand position.
    In order to produce a B7 chord, we need to play notes B D# F# and A on the ukulele. You will use your index and middle fingers in order to achieve this with proper form.
    In the ukulele chord series, each video is dedicated to learning how to play one chord. In this case, the chord is B7.

    Trying to master this cord while playing "I can't Help Falling in Love". My middle finger doesn't want to cooperate, (It usually does when its trying to be a bird, Hehehe) I'll master it... Its sounding much better, even after only one day. Thanks Ms. B.
    Love and Light

    Hey dudes, there is a more convenient way to play this chord, it's just like Em, just move that chord up to the e,c and g strings, so 2nd fret on e, 3rd fret on c and 4th fret on g. Much more easy, especially if you're playing ''can't help falling in love''

      EXACTLY!!!! Very helpful when playing "I Can't Help Falling in Love" because you switch from Em to B7 and it's just a matter of moving your fingers one string up towards you.

    • @Sophie-cm2un

      Made You Look same problem so I found another way to play it. Do the 2 bottom strings with the top of you index finger, the c-string with your ring finger and the g-string with your middle finger. It’s kinda hard, but this works.

    Hi there, thanks for this tutorial. I had been struggling like crazy with this cord. You didn't mention it, but I noticed that you put your bar finger really far across the neck. Once I copied your technique I had it dialed! Thank you so much!!!

  • @mracw21
    @mracw21 4 роки тому +3

    You can also use fingers 1,2 & 3 on the second fret and use your 4th on the 3rd fret C string. Still practice baring though, it takes awhile but your index with naturally get tougher where the strings push on it

    i just saw you're almost at 1000 subs :D congrats! thats a really pretty ukulele by the way, bertha hasnt found her ukulele yet, she's tried mine and she's struggling with keeping her fingers just on the string she wants to press, so she often mutes the other strings, I'm struggling to help her with that, do you have any tips? I'd appreciate it

    • @BernadetteTeachesMusic
      @BernadetteTeachesMusic  7 років тому

      Hey! Yes :) I think we may hit 1,000 tonight 💫
      I'm glad you're letting Agatha play with your uke!
      This will be good practice for her.
      Do you have me on facebook? I can answer this with a short video there ;)
      If not, here's what I think MAY help
      1. have Bertha move her thumb to the back of the ukulele
      2. have Bertha use the tips of her fingers (the part closest to the nail)
      3. have Bertha press harder.
