By the end of this book you will also learn 7 of the most important and widely used fingerstyle patterns that you can apply to all of your favorite songs.
This Beginning Baritone Ukulele Fingerstyle Songbook is a step by step method to master finger picking. Each of the 7 fingerstyle patterns you are going to learn will be introduced in 2 separate lessons. The first lesson of each fingerstyle pattern will introduce a finger picking pattern and have you practice that pattern over a simple 2 chord progression. This will allow you to focus on learning and memorizing the fingerstyle pattern while not having to worry about switching to a lot of different chords.
The second lesson of each fingerstyle pattern will be an original song written specifically for you to continue to master the finger picking pattern you just learned. But this time you will apply the pattern over a song that uses more chords, moves around different strings and the fretboard, and sounds cool. These songs will give you a sense of accomplishment when you master them and will make people turn their heads to listen when they hear you playing them.
By the end of this book you will not only learn 7 of the most important fingerpicking patterns but will have 7 complete songs you can practice and play. As a bonus, at the end of this book, there is a chord progression already written for you that you can create your own fingerstyle pattern for.
