Gb6 Ukulele Chord

Here is the Gb6 chord step by step:

1. Lay your middle finger flat across the g and C strings at the 3rd fret, a small barre.
2. Put your index finger on the 2nd fret of the E string.
3. Put your ring finger on the 4th fret of the A string.
4. Strum all four strings.

Roll your index finger slightly onto its bony side so it presses every string evenly. Read how to play bar chords if it keeps buzzing. New to these grids? Have a look at how to read a ukulele chord diagram.

Not really. 3-3-2-4 is already the simplest playable shape for Gb6 on a ukulele; every alternative either needs more fingers or sits higher up the neck. If it still feels awkward, the tips above are the fix.

The Gb6 chord is built from four notes: Gb, Bb, Db and Eb (the root, major 3rd, perfect 5th and major 6th). The added sixth gives this major chord a softer, sweeter color than a plain major.

Once Gb6 feels comfortable, its close relatives are worth exploring: try Gb7, Gbmaj7, Gbm and Gb. It works as a richer color alongside the basic chords you already know. Then put it into a strumming pattern. When you are ready, try some easy ukulele songs.
