Chord & FretC6 on ukulele
On the ukulele, the high reentrant G makes every shape light — and with four strings, every note is exposed. In this position the bass is C and the shape sits at fret 0, ringing 4 open strings. Its soft nylon strings sound warm and mellow, light enough to float gently over a song.
Notes on C: C – E – G – AFormula: 1 – 3 – 5 – 6In 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: Song tonic in choro and country; a warm, light ending.
