How to play the Ab7 (G#7) on your ukulele The Ab7 can be a difficult chord as it uses all four fingers. The index is placed at the first fret of the G string and the middle finger rests at the second fret of the E string. Finally, our ring finger presses the third fret of the C string, and the pinky plays the third fret of the A string. Use only the tips to press down and keep the fingers straight up. Otherwise, you will mute nearby strings and it will not sound right. The index and middle are the two likely culprits if you hear a buzz or dampened string.
