it might be helpful to mention that this is in D tuning.
not the more (nowadays) C tuning.
so for most players, all of these chord shapes are a full step high.
for example, the C chord shape would be a B chord in C tuning … etc etc…

What do you suppose prompted the shift from D tuning to C tuning? It seems like many of the older books are with D tuning, but most online tabs and whatnot are C. I’m just curious.

Hi!
I found your site a few weeks ago. I find it very useful for Uke greenhorns like me. Am trying to learn through websurf the basic of Ukes.
Am from Manila, the Philippines. Here in Manila, Ukulele is still in its dormant stage. Most commercial guitar stores only sell cheap and make believe ukuleles for kids. I’ve been trying to figure out transposing chords in ukulele. Any idea where I can get (free download) transpose ukulele chart.
Will greatly appreciate your help. Looking forward to hear more from you. Also please advice me other useful materials such as the one above.
Thank you very much!

The chords in closed position (no open strings) can be moved up and down the neck to give you any chord you like. You can trasnpose by getting a chart from a library books, or by counting semitones or frets from one key to the other for the first chord, then move all other chords the same number of semitones. (A semitone is a the same as movingup or down a single fret so that all sharps or flats get counted in the move). This is easier to do than to describe -give it a try abd it will soon become easy.
