Chord & FretC/G on ukulele
On the ukulele, the high reentrant G makes every shape light — and with four strings, every note is exposed. In this C/G voicing the bass is G and the shape runs from fret 5 to 8. Its soft nylon strings sound warm and mellow, light enough to float gently over a song.
Notes in C/G: G – C – EFormula: 1 – 3 – 5 / 5In the formula, the numbers count steps of the major scale starting from the note that names the chord; "b" lowers a half step, "#" raises one — and a slash names the bass note.
Where to use it: Bass pedals, chorus entrances and the classic preparation right before the main chord.
Every region of the neck hides more shapes of C/G on ukulele. In Chord & Fret, you hear every shape strummed string by string, in the instrument's own voice; open every variation on the neck, grouped by bass note; and change the tuning — the shape rewrites itself.
