Well, damn, I'm grossly over-pollinated and posted the wrong version. Let me try this again.

I like this shape too, but often add the 9 because it's way faster/easier for me to grab that quickly. Cheers!

I like that shape, although, more often I'll use 0100 & then hammer on the G on string 2. I dig the sound of the double b7 more than the doubled root.

Thanks! I like to post the crazy ones to get myself out of my comfort zone, but there are really a lot of groovy and simple progressions to play, too.

You have shown a sense of great strength and fortitude that I would never be able to emulate. I applaud you. Fortunately for me, there's also a large body of water between us so that I don't need to covet said underpriced vintage Italian combo organ, even though I may greatly want to do so.
Cheers!

There's a lot of sensible uke content scattered across the Internet and various social media. My niche is more posting chords that may be useful to a very tiny (possibly non-existent) group of players who're looking for a bit of madness as a jumping off point to push beyond what they currently use.

I mostly use these as fingering exercises to get my hands moving in new and interesting ways. They're not always the most suitable chords for everyday songs, but I find them to be good exercises for me. It also keeps me motivated while I try to find time to work on my ukulele chord dictionary.

Let me think about this. It's a great idea, but may be more involved than I have time for right now. I've got a lot going on at present time, but definitely want to think about how I could most easily implement your suggestion. Cheers!

It is a nice one to play. I've got another simple one lined up next, but may have to post a knuckle buster after.
Cheers!

This shape is one of my favourite ways to roll into a G6.

Just wait, my good man. If you think you hate it/me right now, I'm about to post the entire progression.

That is the most appropriate response ever. My work here is done.
I'm working on a PDF for a graded 2-5-1 workout book. These are the current level divisions:
-Painless
-Middling
-Onerous
-I Hate You, George, Never Speak to Me Again
-Why, George, Fucking Why?
This current 2-5-1 is a level 4.
Cheers!

I think the true answer is that by watching this we all win!

My wife recently bought it on a whim on a field trip to our local escape room, I mean, bookstore. She read it and I just finished plowing through it. It was exceedingly difficult to put down. Molly, the main character, is a true force of nature & worthy of at least a song.

It really does, especially coming off that B9. It's also way easier to play than Fmaj7, which I will refer to as the Dread Fmaj7™ until my dying day. Cheers!
