Tips for playing A♯6 on ukulele
On ukulele the usual A♯6 shape is 0211, with a small 2-string barre at the 1st fret.
Notice the C𝄪 in A♯6 (A♯ C𝄪 E♯ F𝄪): each note of the chord takes its own letter (A–C–E–F), so the major 3rd has to be written C𝄪 rather than D — the same key on a piano, spelled to fit the chord.
