This opens up your hand to enable more stretching!Īfter each initial fretted note, you’ll get an open 4th string with your thumb straight after, which turns Campus from a G major scale to an excellent riff. If the stretch bothers you, try placing your thumb right behind the ukulele neck, with your thumb pointing towards the ceiling. As this is a G major scale, the way that we should tackle scales on the ukulele is via a finger per fret technique – this means your index finger is always on the 7th fret, middle always on the 8th, ring always on the 9th, and pinky always on the 10th. ![]() ![]() Let’s talk about the left-hand technique. That means you have one small hand movement as you move your index from string 3 to string 2, but it shouldn’t feel too strange. The right-hand technique requires our thumb to be glued to string 4, so that means the index finger will take over string 3 and string 2, with the middle sticking to string 1. Campus is a very clever riff, it essentially is a G major scale – and that’s it! The way we need to tackle this riff is very different, so let’s talk about the right hand first.
