Find information on all nursing degrees and careers.
As any experienced travel nurse can tell you, getting your nursing license for a new state can be quite an arduous task. This is because, one, it can be really frustrating applying for a registered nurse license for a different state every 3 months. And two, each state's nursing license board has their own requirements and time frames.
Most states require you to submit an application, proof of education and credentials, which need to come from your nursing school, and a license verification form.
However, some states require you to submit extra qualifying factors, ranging from letters of recommendation, supplementary exams, or specific required classes you may need to take before they give you a license. After all the paper work is submitted, each state has its own processing time ranging from 10 days to 4 months.
Some states also issue a temporary nursing license so you may be able to start work until you receive a permanent nursing license. In addition, some states give you the opportunity to walk-in and get a temporary nursing license the same day if you have all the necessary paper work. Even with that, the proof of education and credentials must come from your nursing school to the nursing license board before you apply for a walk in nursing license.
So what do you do first? As soon as you decide where you want your next assignment to be, find out what you need to do to get your license in that state. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) has a listing of all the state boards and their contact information and is an invaluable resource.
Browse the state's website to find what verifications, continuing education (CE) requirements, crucial dates, and other prerequisites must be completed. You can usually download the application from the website itself. Or you can request for one by mail.
Most states say that their nurse licensing process takes 8-12 weeks. So start early. For example, New York requires proof of education from the school you graduated from. They say that getting that proof is what takes the longest.
Normally, the nursing license boards are great to work with. They want to help you. And when you call, you will usually get the right answers. If you have any questions during the process, call them and ask for help. That is what they are there for.
On the application itself, make sure to be very thorough. Answer everything you can, and double check to see if you missed anything. Your application can easily be rejected if something is missing. These boards will not contact you if there is something wrong. They will just send your application back. It is your responsibility to stay on top of it and follow up as much as needed.
Next, you should make sure to complete any of the other requirements. Are there any special classes they expect you to take? Find out and take them.
Keep in mind that your recruitment company should reimburse you for any charges you incur to apply for your new license. Also, make sure to keep a copy of everything you sent in your application, in case it gets lost in the mail or anywhere else. Keep a set of all your records with you on your travels so you can have them whenever you need.
It really depends on your travel company if they will help you with your licensing or not. With many of these companies, the best you can hope for is if your recruiter calling to remind you to start the process for your next assignment.
However, with the advent of multi-state licenses, it has become much easier than in the past. Many states use a site called Nursys.com, a popular license verification service, to make the process easier. It verifies that you took your board exams and where you got your original nursing license from. License boards from most states use this site to verify your license. It costs about $30 when submitted online and this information is online for 3 months so the license boards can look at this information and verify your license. Some states, however, do not use nursys. They may have their own verification form. Therefore, it is extremely important to know what the requirements are before you apply for your nursing license.
Also, under the mutual recognition model of nurse licensure, RNs and LPNs/LVNs who are licensed in their primary states of residence can practice within any state that has passed the Nurse Licensure Compact legislation. Currently, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wisconsin have implemented the Compact.
In the event you cannot get a permanent license right away, you might be able to get a temporary license that will last for up to 6 months. California is one such state that works this way. If you plan to do only one 3 month assignment, all you need is the temporary. But you should probably get the permanent anyway. You never know, your plans could change. You don't want to have everything to fall by the wayside because you failed to take a couple more steps and get your permanent license.
For example, in California, it is better to actually show up in Sacramento and get your temporary license in person, then wait for it to arrive by mail. This is the "walk in" process mentioned earlier. It is much faster and easier. The only thing needed for the walk-in temporary license for California was the application, finger prints, and the payment mentioned on the application. The nursing verification from Nursys and the proof of education and credentials from your nursing school needed to be submitted before you go for the walk-in.
Once again, the important thing to remember is to know all the requirements to apply for the nursing license in the state you want to work in, before you apply. Make sure you read the website, the application, and the requirements thoroughly so no time is wasted.

Cyprus Orthodox Church backs Ukrainian Church's independence
World 2 min. 303
Holy Synod spokesman said the body's decisions are binding according to its constitution.
Metropolitan Epiphanius I / Photo from UNIAN
The Cypriot Orthodox Church's top body this week backed their Archbishop's move to recognize the independence of the new Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
With the move, the Church shifted away from an earlier position of neutrality on the issue, Crux reports.
Of the Holy Synod's 17 bishops, 10 voted not to contest the decision by Archbishop Chrysostomos II to extend blessings to the leader of the new OCU, Metropolitan Epiphanius I during a liturgical service.
Read alsoUkraine Religious Freedom Support Act submitted to U.S. Senate – mediaThe Archbishop's reference to Epiphanius as head of the new Church in Ukraine during a service was seen as de facto recognition of its independence.
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, who is considered first among equals in the Orthodox patriarchy, last year granted independence to Ukraine's OCU, severing its centuries-long dependence on the Russian Orthodox Church.
Bartholomew's move outraged the Russian Orthodox Church, which cut ties with the Patriarchate.
Holy Synod spokesman Bishop Georgios said the body's decisions are binding according to its constitution whether they're made unanimously or by majority.
He said the Synod also called on all Orthodox churches to work "in order to overcome the present crisis that threatens the Church of Christ with a schism."
Orthodox Church of Ukraine: Background
The Unification Council of members of the Ukrainian Orthodox churches in Kyiv on December 15, 2018, elected Metropolitan of Pereyaslavsky and Bila Tserkva from the then Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyiv Patriarchate Epifaniy (also known as Epiphanius I) as head of the new local Orthodox Church in Ukraine.
On January 6, 2019, Epifaniy, as Primate of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine and Metropolitan of Kyiv and All Ukraine, received from Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I in Istanbul the tomos of autocephaly (independence) of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine. Metropolitan of Kyiv and All Ukraine Epifaniy was inaugurated as Primate of the newly created Orthodox Church of Ukraine at Kyiv's Saint Sophia Cathedral on February 3.
Metropolitan Epiphanius has said the autocephaly of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine was being recognized by more local Orthodox churches despite pressure from the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC).
One of the forms of Kremlin pressure on Ukraine is through promoting the idea of a "Russian Orthodox Church", Ukraine's intelligence chief Valeriy Kondratiuk said. To this end, Russia employs a wide range of tools "to hinder the process of formation of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, manipulating the feelings of Ukrainian believers and trying in every possible way to preserve its influence on them."

Donald Glover on 'SNL': 3 Sketches You Have to See

Emma Thompson on 'SNL': 3 Sketches You Have to See
Let's not bury the lede: That was the best Saturday Night Live episode all season.
Watching SNL is not unlike watching a sporting event or a concert: All three are live experiences in which anything can happen, and when something magical unfolds, it becomes contagious. Donald Glover and the Not Ready For Primetime Players didn't throw a no-hitter last night, but they did deliver the most consistently funny and inventive episode since Martin Freeman hosted in Season 40.
We only talk about three sketches a week here, but the second trio of sketches behind the ones below would still represent a stronger batch than those in lesser episodes. That's how good this episode was. Melissa Villaseñor's inept dirty talker, Pete Davidson's savage "Weekend Update" roast of Michael Che and Colin Jost, and Glover's insanely confident Jurassic Park lawyer would all make appearances on weaker installments.
Watch Childish Gambino's Caustic Video for New Song 'This Is America'
This was an embarrassment of riches, and what follows are the ones that will have the most traction before Amy Schumer returns to host next Saturday.
Michael Cohen Wiretap Cold Open
At the risk of making this review topical: This was the Avengers: Infinity War of cold opens. Had the Black Widow herself (Scarlett Johansson) not appeared, this would still hold true. SNL has not had a good track record this season when putting Alec Baldwin onscreen as Donald Trump, but here he's just one of a dozen-plus figures clamoring for space inside the cacophony that is the Trump Presidency.
Often times, the cold open will shove in two or three disparate stories inside a topical cold open, and the overall effect is to dull the impact of each individual segment. Here, the sheer tonnage of content actually works in its favor, as the whirlwind around Michael Cohen (played once again by Ben Stiller) is reflected by the blink-and-you-miss-it approach to every scandal concurrently occurring in the here and now. If you didn't like Martin Short's Harold Bornstein, you could stick around for Kate McKinnon's Rudy Giuliani, or you could be entertained by Jimmy Fallon's Jared Kushner. Something for everyone!
By the time the sketch got around to Stormy Daniels, the audience was prepped for another famous non-cast member to portray her. Instead, we got Daniels herself, a reason unto itself why this will be the most covered sketch of the next week. Daniels didn't exactly light the world on fire with her performance, but to be fair, Meryl Streep herself couldn't have saved, "I know you don't believe in climate change…but there's a storm coming!" But that doesn't ultimately matter. This sketch's anarchy matches the anarchy of the current moment, and packing it with celebrities was merely the icing on an already potently funny cold open.
80's Music Video
Full disclosure: "Friendos" is the superior technical achievement, and if I wrote this recap ten times in ten alternate universes, it probably would end up in this slot half the time. But this child of the '80s – inspired by Oran "Juice" Jones' infamous "The Rain" video – is going with this one in this universe, because the nostalgia factor, coupled with a truly brilliant ending, takes the win by the slimmest of margins.
First of all, the song itself is catchy as hell, to the point that if I heard it on the radio, I'd think it was a real song I once recorded off the radio onto a black cassette. Secondly, the sketch does a great job of following through on the song's inherently creepy premise by making Glover's singer a straight-up stalker. Thirdly, it takes the music video trope of the silent woman and turns it on its head, with Cecily Strong's beleaguered woman attempting over and over again that he's accusing the wrong woman, only to hear another increasingly bizarre thing that Raz P. Berry has done in retaliation for this perceived affront.
If nothing else, I have to give props to Glover's dance at the end, after he's revealed the location of his girlfriend's jewelry. It's a small shift from his original moves, and he doesn't oversell it, but everyone watching understands what he's doing. It's an absolutely brilliant bit of physical comedy and the perfect capper to this segment.
A Kanye Place
The cold open was broad and crowd-pleasing. But this little slice of political satire sneaks up on you, shifting slowly past a mere pop-culture parody into an analysis of how keeping focused on what's important is simply impossible at this point in history. We all know what we should do, this sketch argues, but our impulses keep leading us astray.
That's a pretty heavy premise for a light sketch. But using Kanye West as a fulcrum upon which the entire premise swivels is a fantastic way to illuminate how each successive scandal can numb us from the one before it. Everyone has a momentary breaking point, and the "monsters" swoop in despite our best efforts to keep them at bay. (Everyone that's every hashtagged in anger can relate.) It's difficult to maintain the strength of a group when each individual has her or his own Achilles heel. In that regard, using the horror genre to depict this truth is perfect: It's a genre in which common sense flees when confronted with senselessness. In a strong episode, this was the strongest moment.

Posted on March 2, 2021 by spandrella
I don't even know when I left off with my Bosstones listen-along. It's been at least a year? Or two? I was going through my list of possible blog posts, though, and realized that I only had two Bosstones albums left (at least, until they put out another one). So here we are.
Also I started writing this and then it turned into something over 4,000 words long, so today, we listen to Side A (which is technically incorrect because the LP version of this album is a double LP, so we're really kind of listening to the entire first record but you know what, Side A sounds better).
Pin Points & Gin Joints was released in 2009, the Bosstones' first full length album since Jackknife in 2002 (they went on hiatus in 2003, and didn't do anything until the 2007 Throwdown). I think that Medium Rare came out before Pin Points, but that only had 3 original/new songs on it and was mostly b-sides (which are great! B-Sides are great. Bosstones b-sides even more so than most songs. But b-sides != new music).
In looking at the Wikipedia entry for this album, Joe Gittleman (the bassist and one of the primary songwriters) said, "We really want to make a fun, upbeat record with a lot of cool ska stuff. Songs I look forward to playing at shows." Mission accomplished, sir, because I enjoy hearing just about every one of these songs at shows.
The first song up is "Graffiti Worth Reading," which I'm pretty sure I heard one way or another before the song actually came out–released on the internet? At a show? It's super fun, upbeat, great to sing along to. It's about people who tag walls and the people who read them. Chris Rhodes, who plays trombone, has some fun as fuck background vocals on this. The lyrics go fast but are relatively simple and happen on the beat, so it's easy to sing along.
"Nah nah nah nah" is number two. That might not be the right number of Nah's. Shrug. Also upbeat, also dancey, except it's about coming to terms with the decisions your deadbeat dad he made when you were just a child. "I'd rather you hadn't than had/If you hadn't, I wouldn't be mad/At what I'd been handed/Despite it, I've landed/On both feet, so don't worry, Dad." Dicky has this habit sometimes of inverting syntax to keep his rhymes intact, which is kind of all over the place here (and in "Graffiti").
Thinking about the title of the album–a gin joint, most of us either know or infer, is American slang for a bar. Where the Bosstones have played a lot of shows and spent a lot of time. It's also in one of the most famous movie lines in history: "Of all the gin joints in all the world, she had to walk into mine," from Casablanca. Ska in general has a fascination with gangsters and spies, with the tension between fashionable elegance and brutal crime. Early ska is full of James Bond covers and songs about gangsters and speakeasies. Street gangs and getting in fights. The Bosstones cover these themes too, though of course they do it in their own ultra-specific way: they wear suits onstage (like a lot of other ska bands), but the gangsters they sing about are, like, James Michael Curley and Sammy Gravano. So citing "gin joints" here is working on multiple levels.
Then there's pin points, like how many angels (or devils, in the case of the Bosstones) dance on the head of a pin. Like just how many guys can you fit on a fucking stage. Or maybe pin points like pointallism, the drawing technique (Dicky is also an artist and has designed most, if not all, of the Bosstones' album art). Pin points are also legal citations that direct a reader to a specific paragraph of a judgment or report, which I did not know until I started looking into the etymology of "pin points," but now that I see it I don't think it's an accident. There's a lot of introspection in this album, a lot of Dicky thinking about specific moments in his life and how they influenced where he ended up, for good and for bad. In fact we go straight from "Nah Nah Nah Nah Nah," where he's thinking about his dad's abandonment of him and how that affected him growing up, to "The Route that I Took," which is about his early history as a punk and as a musician and has some of my favorite lyrics on the entire album.
Without really knowing I took all the wrong routes
The misguided monster in the Doc Marten boots
In the wrong directions against all of the grains
Got off at all the wrong stops, back on to all the wrong trains…
I can just continue quoting the song here, that's cool, right?
Without suggesting to you the routes I took were never wrong,
I took a look and still I took and somehow I stayed strong,
And I just stayed on the course with very few deviations,
One of two situations, some other odd altercations.
And when my days were too dark, well I had something to sell,
I am the carnival barker with some stories to tell.
There'll be apologies made at every fork and each bend
And I'm so glad that I stayed and I will stay till the end
There's also the absolutely glorious line, "While I made up my mind, I had some choices to make/Should I leave hell far behind me just for heaven's sake?" And, "Without a drop of the sense that god had gave to a stone/But in my own self defense, I was not all alone."
I love the way Dicky is able to do this. He takes idioms and sayings–got off at all the wrong stops, leave hell far behind, for heaven's sake–and uses them in a way that is both true and accurate and yet also sort of literal in a way that idioms generally aren't used. I'm also a sucker for multiple rhymes in the same line, like "I stayed on the course with very few deviations/One or two situations, some other odd altercations."
I also love the story of the song. It's very specifically Dicky, and I can't relate to it on a literal level–I've been blessedly sheltered from drug use, and drug abuse, my entire life, and a lot of this song is about being around people using drugs (something he's also written about in other songs). I also wasn't nearly the agent of chaos that it sounds like he was in his youth. But there's an overarching theme of being in the shit, and going through some shit, whether it's of your own making or just bad luck. And not knowing if you want to hang around or not (either in the environment you're in or, like, at all), but doing your best to get through it, any way you can. And then looking back and going, well, if I had to do it again, I would sure not choose to do it that way, but ultimately I have no regrets about what I did, or where I ended up. That's not a song that many 25-year-old punks ever have the chance–or the wherewithal–to write.
(On another note, here and there there are old punks writing songs about being an old punk, which, as an old not-quite-a-punk-anymore, I appreciate. As I grow older, it makes me sad that songs that I stitched onto my heart when I was 17 don't always sound like they're about me anymore, now that I'm 38.)
"I am the carnival barker with some stories to tell"–a reference to both Dicky's role as a lead singer, one with a very distinctive voice, and his role in the band as primary lyricist. He's also the ringleader on stage, the guy who's most likely to engage with the crowd and talk to folks. Historically, a carnival barker is the guy who stands outside the circus tent and invites people inside to see the best show of their life. They're hucksters, fast talkers. salesmen. The label does fit him, in a way. And not just because he wears loud plaid suits and wields a microphone.
I like "You Left Right," aside from the wordplay in the title (and the missing comma) because it articulates the confusion that often comes in the wake of a breakup (or at least, that comes in the wake of mine), when the anger mixes with still feeling protective or tender over this person that you cared for, because emotions have the turning capacity of ocean liners.
Sitting in the car with the engine off
And I've got no where to go
I need to be somewhere away from here to think
….I sift and sort and come up short
So far past my last resort.
After that, we take a break from the introspection for "Too Many Stars," an anti-war song. The album came out in 2009, but this song may have been written or conceived around the Iraq Troop surge of 2007? Or just a reaction to being eight years into seemingly endless wars that fought on two fronts. And how we make these decisions to rain fire down on people thousands of miles away. I do find it interesting that this sounds like any number of anti-war/anti-imperial songs that were written during the Bush presidency, but was most likely written (and was definitely released) during Obama's first term.
Way too many stars falling from the skies
An open invitation sent to open up their eyes
A monumental diplomatic moment that was missed
Too many make their living off it hand right over fist.
(Once I was at a Bosstones show and I was on the rail, at the front of the crowd, and I accidentally made eye contact with Dicky as we both sang the lines, "A monumental diplomatic moment that was missed/Too many make their living off it hand right over fist" and for some reason that moment is now burned into my skull as a cool thing that happened at a show.)
Next up is "Your Life," which is my favorite favorite favorite (yes, I know. All the Bosstones songs are my favorite. They're like puppies that way. All the best.) For some reason I keep inserting this song into my queue when I'm listening to the Bosstones' newest album While We're At It, right after the song "Unified." It fits, for some reason. Either a similar tempo or a similar key or something that I can't articulate because I'm not a musician, but my brain clicks into it. It also has a lot of the wordplay and idioms that I mentioned above that I just completely love.
You were warned from the day you were born,
You were to young so you blew it off.
You were told you were gold but as you got older,
You discovered that you were to soft.
"You were told you were gold and then discovered that you were too soft," oh my god.
This is another one of those songs where, even though my life has been drastically different from Dicky's, and even though I don't know what events he was thinking of when he wrote this song, there's also ways in which we're the same. Maybe all humans. I hit the rocks so, so hard as a teenager and young adult, as my idealism and naivety crashed into the reality of how the world actually is. This song is about that, in a way that articulates the experience in a way that I would have said it, if I was as good with words and rhymes as Dicky is.
The last three verses of something are something that, every time I sing along to it, I feel like I'm singing to my younger self. She went through so much shit, and a ton of it was due to not having any real mental health support even though she really needed it (and didn't know how badly she needed it, and didn't know that it was a thing she could or should ask for). I try to keep her safe these days, while not keeping her locked away. She earned it.
The bottom was coming up quick
I guess it just has to be hit
The secret the key and the trick
Is learning to deal with it
It's uphill from this point on out
And the pinnacle's up at the top
It hasn't been reached, only practiced and preached
So at this point you might want to stop
You might but might I suggest
I suggest it's best just to climb
Continue you've still got it in you
And be thankful you've still got the time
You've still got the time.
The outro of this song is the chorus over and over, but behind it, in harmony, one of the Bosstones is repeating, "You've still got the time" over and over. "Be thankful you've still got the time. You've still got the time." That's a thing I need to hear, to remind myself of, a lot.
(Also, does Dicky have a list somewhere of idioms somewhere of plates and their many metaphorical meanings? In "Desensitized," on their 1997 album Let's Face It, Dicky wrote, "Let's get to the bottom/And blow off the lid/I'm trying to keep a balance/Like the plates on top of sticks…")
Next up is "I Wrote It," a song that I know some Bosstones fans super adore, but I confess it's not my favorite. It's about the narrator (I really should stop assuming that the narrator is always Dicky) writing a song in a borrowed notebook, in a bar in Boston, wearing a suit jacket that I think he bought at a thrift store. There's no indication in the song that the lines he's writing are great, or worthy, or that they're any of the songs that made the Bosstones "big." There is a drum lick in the chorus here that I love, where Sirois hits the toms with a sort of *womp womp* which is just fun. There's also a repeated line in here that, "I wrote, I wrote it for you," which always gets kinda emphasized when they play it live. "FOR! (womp womp) YOU! (womp womp) (horns horns horns hooooorns)"
I just noticed that this song starts with Dicky finding a golf pencil in his blazer, and he ends with leaving the pencil in the empty shot glass, for someone else to find. Back to one! Full circle! Craft! Something something.
And now we are up to "Not to Me on That Night," which I've just realized I've been mentally squishing together with "You Left Right," to the extent that I'm surprised that there's three songs in between the two on the album. Dicky might very well still be sitting in his car with the engine off. But there's also….something darker in this? Like Dicky notes that "That's when the sanity ceased," and then later he says, "I noticed something was wrong, and I took it seriously." He could be talking here about discovering his partner is cheating on him, or about noticing that his partner is having serious mental illness symptoms and needs to go to a hospital. "You had nothing to say/But it took several hours to say it." Is Dicky just mad and done and not listening anymore, or is the other person in the song honestly prevaricating? It's hard for me to tell. And sure, I know, I am almost certainly over-interpreting.

Ukulele vs Guitar – What's the Difference? Find Out
1 What is Ukelele?
2 Types of Ukelele
4 What is Guitar?
5 Types of Guitar
8 Ukulele vs Guitar – The Main Difference!
10.1 How is a ukulele different from a guitar?
10.2 Is it good to learn the ukulele before guitar?
10.3 How much easier is the ukulele than the guitar?
What is Ukelele?
The ukulele is a four-stringed instrument that dates back to the 1800s when it was introduced to Hawaii by Portuguese immigrants. It has since grown in popularity and has become one of the most recognizable instruments today.
The body of a ukulele is traditionally cigar-shaped, with a sound hole in the center, and made out of either wood or plastic. Although there are many different shapes on offer, this form is certainly the most iconic.
The ukulele is a small, four-stringed Hawaiian guitar-like instrument with a unique tone and a fairly simple form. A ukulele is a Hawaiian instrument. It was originally made from a hollowed-out, dried gourd.
The instrument was originally designed to be the main instrument in the hula, but today it is played worldwide by musical professionals as well as amateurs.
Many people find that the ukulele's smaller size makes it an excellent choice for young musicians or those who are just starting out with playing instruments.
Types of Ukelele
The sound of a Ukulele is usually compared to a guitar but it can have different tones because its construction. It has a long, thin neck and fretboard which allows for small movements so that the playing is more accurate.
Its size, as well as body shape, means that it could be used as an instrument for children, specifically those with smaller hands who cannot reach the higher frets on a guitar or other instruments.
There are three different parts to a Ukulele, the main section which includes the strings, the soundbox, and the fretboard. The main section consists of four pieces. It consists of two sound-holes, one for each string that goes into the instrument with an end cap that holds them in place.
The soundholes are where you play your notes by strumming or plucking using a plectrum (a flat piece of hard material such as plastic or metal that is held between thumb and forefinger). The fretboard is where the tuning pegs are held on. These tuning pegs keep the strings in tune so that they can produce a nice melody.
The strings are made of thin pieces of metal with a nylon coating, this allows it to produce different sounds when plucked or strummed. Finally, the soundbox is where sound is amplified and projected out through the soundholes.
The ukulele is a small four-stringed instrument. Although it's often believed to be Hawaiian in origin, it actually originated in Portugal in 1879 when Manuel Nunes adapted the Portuguese cavaquinho for the less-used lower octave.
Although the ukulele is most commonly associated with Hawai'i, many people play this instrument around the world. The size and tuning of this instrument allow for easier fingering than other instruments like guitars or violins.
What is Guitar?
The guitar is a string instrument that is used in musical genres such as rock and country. There are 3 main parts to the guitar: the head, the neck, and the body. The head of a guitar has a round hole in it called a "fretboard," which is where the strings are attached to.
The neck has adjustable frets that can be raised or lowered that correspond to specific notes on each of these strings. Finally, the body of a guitar contains metal rods called "vibratos.
One of the best-known instruments in the world is the guitar. It has been one of the most important musical instruments ever since it was first used by Spaniards in 15th century Spain. The guitar is a type of stringed instrument and comes in various sizes and shapes with six, seven, eight, nine, or 10 strings.
Types of Guitar
There are different styles of guitars. The standard guitar model used by all artists is the classical guitar, but other types include the steel-string acoustic guitar and the electric guitar. These models can be broken down into different designs that emphasize specific features such as size, number of strings, and sound production.
However, none of these guitars were developed until much later in history; for instance, Edson Guitars developed their first steel-string acoustic guitar in 1932, and Fender Guitars developed their first solid-body electric guitar in 1946.
The general structure of the guitar is that of separate bracing, which is usually made up of a top, back, and sides. The top is usually made out of solid wood while the back and sides are made from hollowed-out or solid wood. The neck can vary in construction too, but typically has a flat back similar to the top. The neck also has two tuning pegs which are used to adjust the pitch of strings.

Ukulele vs Guitar – The Main Difference!
A ukulele is a four-stringed musical instrument like the guitar. The strings are connected to the fretboard, which in turn is connected to the soundboard via a bridge. There are many sizes of ukuleles ranging from soprano-size instruments having one small bout of dense nylon strings. A soprano ukulele is the smallest member of the ukulele family and produces a higher, more vocal-like sound than either concert or tenor ukuleles.
A guitar is a stringed musical instrument and part of the guitarist's musical instrument family. The four strings of a guitar are tuned EADGBE. Its body is typically made of wood with a smooth, rounded shape that has many synthetic materials incorporated into its design. For example, the soundboard, back, and sides are all made from veneer as well as the neck part.
A ukulele is a small guitar-shaped instrument with four strings. The ukulele originated in the 19th-century Hawaiian culture, and it became popular worldwide. There are many differences between the two instruments, but generally speaking, a uke is easier to learn because its chord structure is less complicated than that of the guitar.
How is a ukulele different from a guitar?
Guitars generally have six strings while ukuleles tend to have four. Guitars use nylon strings or steel strings, while ukuleles mostly just use nylon strings. The two instruments are tuned differently.
Is it good to learn the ukulele before guitar?
Learning any musical instrument will help when you learn the next one, but learning the ukulele before guitar won't be particularly more helpful than learning any other instrument first. Similarly, you could learn guitar before ukulele; it does not really matter.
How much easier is the ukulele than the guitar?
As compared to a guitar, the relatively low tension and the small fretboard of a ukulele with only 4 strings definitely make it easier for a beginner to form a chord.
