what do you mean? guitar and the uke are totally different. guitar aint harder. its like asking a violinist to play a piano.

Actually, depending on which ukulele you have of course, the ukulele strings are in the same pitch as the four highest strings on a guitar. There is one alternative tuning available, but otherwise it's like playing a guitar sans the low E and A strings, as long as you take into account that the second (G) string on the ukulele is an octave lower than the D string. This is also why it's easy to jam with a guitar if you play the ukulele.
