It takes a little getting used to, and again I would recommend using the 60 second chord changes method daily to get this version down. More often than not I will play this chord with 2 fingers using my third finger to bar strings 2,3 and 4 of fret 4. I personally almost never play this version of the e chord they way I’ve shown it in the diagram. Essentially this version of an E is a D chord shifted up 2 frets. Looking at the chord boxes above, it’s the first E chord that usually strikes fear into a players heart. Here’s 3 of them (there are more though)… It’s a case of selecting the one that fits into what you’re playing and which chord you’re transitioning from. Here comes the good news, just like every chord there are multiple ways to play an E ( otherwise known as chord inversions) and some are easier to fret than others. Get to grips with the E chord and you’ll never need to transpose songs or drop in an E7 that might not work anyway. It’s hugely limiting to you and your ukulele playing. Why place that restriction on yourself? That’s like saying you’re only ever going to play down strums because up strums are a little bit tricky. Well technically you could but you shouldn’t. It’s not uncommon for people to play an E7 in it’s place or just to transpose a song completely. Check out my guide to helping you get to grips with the e chord…Ĭan’t I just permanently avoid playing an E chord? Players will go to great lengths to avoid playing an E chord on ukulele. The e chord is every beginner ukulele player’s nemesis.
