starting the uke?
Hey people!

I was thinking about learning the ukulele but i'm a college student with not a lot of time/ money, Would I have to take lessons to learn the uke? and also how hard is it to learn? Any other advice would be fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you

	The uke is easy and fun. There are many free lessons online, lots of inexpensive books, and even the instruments aren't all that expensive. You can noodle around learning songs and chords in the odd moment or two, and it will always make you smile. Go for it! (Reply to this)

	I never had lessons.. I just dived into Chordie and found songs I liked, then used the transposing-thingy-box-whatnot to set the tablature for ukulele. Print it off and play.. I learnt the chord shapes pretty quick that way. (Reply to this)
