FAQs about the Baritone Ukulele & Chord Bible Series
Q: Are the chords in this guide based on theoretical chord knowledge alone, rather than actual 'hands on' experience?
A: Absolutely NOT, every chord in the Chord Bible has been created with an actual instrument on hand to check for voicing, fingering and average hand/finger span.
Q: Will I need all the chords in this guide?
A: Probably not, but the whole ethos behind these guides is to provide a complete chord solution for the musician wanting to pick up virtually any songbook in the certain knowledge that he/she will find that elusive chord in the Chord Bible, from basic majors and minors up to exotic extended thirteenths.
Q: I'm a beginner, will the Baritone Ukulele Chord Bible be suitable for me?
A: Yes. The Baritone Uke Chord Bible has a well balanced selection of easy to play chords, along with more
advanced shapes for experienced musicians.
Q: Where does your Baritone Uke chord dictionary differ from other similar books on market today?
A: The first difference is the most obvious. The Baritone Uke Chord Bible has many many more chords than the
most comprehensive book up to this date. The second is the inclusion of a big selection of slash chords and
moveable chord shapes - additional material not available in other publications.
Q: Is The Baritone Uke Chord Bible just a tranposed standard ukulele book?
A: No. It's been written with the longer scale in mind, so all the chords are reachable with an averaged sized hand. A directly transposed guide would make many of the chords unplayable because of the longer required finger stretch.
Q: Does having the additional 2,000+ chords make the book a more daunting prospect for beginners?
A: Not at all. The content is very straightforward and logical, with the most frequently used chord types at the
beginning of each key (i.e. Major, Minor, Seventh etc.).
Q: Do you do a Ukulele Chord Bible in C6 (GCEA) or D6 (ADF#B) tuning?
A: We currently do a C6 (GCEA) Ukulele Chord Bible for Soprano, Concert & Tenor Ukes. A D6 version is
planned for the near future.
Q: I'm interested in your Chord Bibles, but you don't seem to have a book for my particular instrument. What are your plans with regard to this?
A: Keep a keen eye open for new Chord Bibles on eBay. A number of other guides are in preparation or are planned for the future. Feel free to ask for details.
Q: Do you have left-handed versions of your books available?
A: Not at the moment, but it's a fairly simple process to print out a few blank chord boxes and reverse the fingering positions yourself. We're shortly going to publish an ebook of chordbox, tab, stave and keyboard blanks in dozens of different configurations for this very purpose.
Q: Are your books ISBN (International Standard Book Number) registered?
A: Yes.
Q: Will this Chord Bible help me play from any songbook?
A: Yes. You'll be able to pick up virtually any artist or compilation songbook, fakebook or Busker book with guitar or piano chords in and look up the chords you need in the Chord Bible. It really is as easy as that!
Q: How can you publish guides like as these, when the major publishing groups don't?
A: Cabot Books being a specialist publisher, concentrates on a specific niche in the market, whereas huge outfits like Hal Leonard, Mel Bay or Music Sales Ltd like to concentrate on titles that will sell in multiples of 10,000+.
