I love the Circle of Fifths and booklet from Noisy Clan. The circle is very high quality and will last a long time. The instructional booklet is easy to read and super informative.

This is a great resource for using the circle of fifths understanding and applications. I put off ordering it because of the price but it is well worth it. It is durable with a heavy plastic outer that actually folds and snaps so it can be set on the table for viewing! Book is excellent! The best circle of 5th’s tool!

Amazing detail. This helped me understand music theory on my ukulele. It explains everything from the very basics very clearly. There is a lot to learn from this for experience players too. Would definitely recommend!

Ukulele Circle of Fifths

I've been buying many music theory books over the years, most of them not holding my interest to the point that I actually finish them. However, I took a chance buying the following Circle of Fifths Wheel and its accompanying ukulele book. Together they provide the best explanations I've found to date. I was aware of the Circle of Fifths and wondered how this purchase would present something new. The wheel helps mute the noise from the Circle of Fifths (it shows an overwhelming amount of information) and the book uses the wheel brilliantly to discuss chord makeup and progressions.
