The title of this Website says it like it is! Got a few minutes to kill – just you, your uke and the Internet – then give Ukulele Beatles Fun! a try.

My suggestion is to ignore the fretboard and follow the chords and words at the top. In my opinion the fretboard uses some different versions of a few chords. Might be worth learning those, too, sometime.

The important thing is to crank up the speakers and just have fun!

I love this uke!

“We will attempt to beat this record at CHARTFEST in the James Hay Theatre at 3.45pm on Friday, May 28,” ‘

-Cache size – Medium
-Reconnection (I didn’t even mess with it)
-Socks (I didn’t even mess with it)
-Format – WAV
-Pause – Sound Out
-Web Management (I didn’t even mess with it)
-Preset List (I didn’t even mess with it)

Enjoy!
