New Video Series: Learn How to Play the Baritone Ukulele with Flight!

At Flight, we believe every ukulele deserves the spotlight, including the baritone! That’s why we’ve teamed up once again with Tyler from Ten Thumbs Productions to bring you a brand-new YouTube series dedicated entirely to the baritone ukulele. Whether you’re picking up a baritone for the first time or looking to expand your ukulele skills, this series will guide you through everything you need to get started and grow with confidence.

Baritone ukuleles have a deeper tone and different tuning than standard ukes, and they open up a whole new world of musical possibilities. In this 12-video series, Tyler covers all the essentials—from holding and tuning your baritone to more advanced techniques like fingerpicking blues. Each lesson is bite-sized and beginner-friendly, while offering plenty of depth for those looking to sharpen their skills.
