Author Rob MacKillop introduces techniques for the left and right hand and explanations for each piece that help you along the way. The accompanying online audio download contains both slow and up tempo versions of very tune in the book. Review: A uke book everyone should have - This is a book every beginning to intermediate uke player should have. The exercises aren't easy. In fact, if you could play them at full speed, you'd be well on your way to a professional ukulele career. However, they are accessible to all levels at the slower speed. On the CD, Rob plays both a slow version and a fast version. An advanced beginning/intermediate player will be able to play the exercises at the slow speed with a little practice, but will be quite challeged to get them up to the faster speed. A person who is new to the ukulele will be challenged to play at the slow speed. The exercises sound so nice at the faster speed that students will be motived to keep practicing in the hopes of getting up to that faster speed. The book focuses on both left hand and right hand techniques, but it also has excercises on musicality--dynamics, playing soft to loud; accents, 3/4 vs. 6/8, for example--which is another important part of playing well. I'm working my way through the exercises. So far there is only one I can play at the faster speed. I enjoy having exercises to practice and I know they will improve my playing. Review: Very musical exercises - This book provides exercises with detailed notes that help a beginner to fingerpick. The exercises are very musical in that they are more like little songs themselves, and the author provides plenty of opportunity, even with the first one, to be creative and expressive. I started the 20 progressive studies by the same author, and then found this one which is a primer. I recommend this one first, as the CD has both slow and fast performances, which are really quite helpful. Also, he gives more specific notes for the right hand, using the 3-finger and 4-finger approaches. My playing has surely gotten better, and there are videos too of his playing of many of the studies on the author's site. He is also great about answering questions about his books. Doing these studies works really well with learning his Celtic Tunes book and Sanz baroque book. I couldn't be happier with it and have recommended to my ukulele orchestra colleagues, along with his other arrangements. ## Features - Author: by Rob MacKillop - Format: Book + Online Audio - SkillLevel: Beginning-Intermediate - NumberofPages: 44 - PublicationDate: 08_20_2015 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,693,510 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #349 in Ukulele Songbooks #498 in Ukuleles (Books) #9,146 in Music Instruction & Study (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 117 Reviews | ## Images ![20 Easy Fingerstyle Studies for Ukulele - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71AQUey9j7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A uke book everyone should have *by S***H on September 6, 2012* This is a book every beginning to intermediate uke player should have.

Written for gCEA tuning. Rob MacKillop also encourages improvisation and creativity and introduces this in stages. This is an excellent book for an absolute beginner. Pieces are arranged in order of difficulty so the student can gain confidence quickly and easily. The staff and tab are in large easy-to-read print, no awkward page turns plus space on the page to add any notes or comments. The cd also has both slow and fast versions of all pieces. I have used this book for a month and am making significant progress. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/28533118-20-easy-fingerstyle-studies-for-ukulele](https://www.desertcart.be/products/28533118-20-easy-fingerstyle-studies-for-ukulele) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
