This is the first ukelele channel I have come across who is not uploading only song tutorials. learning a lot from your videos ❣️

@Cederuiter Год назад

Today I went into a shop to get a tenor ukulele... I ended up with a bariton ukulele and I love it! I used to play the guitar, but because of arthritis in my fingers and carpal tunnel syndrome, I can't play the guitar anymore. So I got a soprano ukulele and an online course to learn how to play it. Then i heard about a tenor ukulele and wanted to try that, because the sound of the soprano is a bit too high for my liking. I'm more a person for lower and softer sounds, more guitar-like. Now i found your channel and I love your demonstration of the bariton ukulele! It sounds so much like my beloved guitar and is somehow a bit easier to play. Now this is my instrument; finally found it! I hope to see more of you on RU-vid and more of the bariton ukulele. Thank you so much! And if you ever have a course on playing the bariton ukulele, I'd love to take it!

Try 1/2 a teaspoon of ginger with 1/2 a teaspoon of turmeric in a glass of lemonade - my sister put me onto this as she has osteo arthritis in her hands - I have arthritis in my knee - try it for a few days - it cleared my arthritis - it's bloody marvellous!

@heidilaw4 2 года назад

This is genius. Really helping me to move away from only learning one song at a time to making them my own and adding variation and creativity to them! If you'd make videos about music theory, and how to apply that in ur playing, that'd be soooooo awesome!!

Hello! Long time bass player here, and I've recently fell in love with ukelele. Been playing it for about a year now, and your channel has really opened my eyes to the heights the instrument can reach. Thank you!

@MarcoCirilloUkulele 2 года назад

Thanks Dob. The Uke is a lovely instrument. I am sure it feels a lot smaller than a bass ☀️🎸

@BlueDragonMedia 2 года назад

There is a bass version of the ukulele, I have no idea if it's any good but I figured I'd mention it as I think it may be something you'd like. Lol

@PreservationEnthusiast 5 месяцев назад

@@BlueDragonMedia There is a Uke bass but because the scale length is smaller, the strings have to be much thicker and heavier. The tone is more like a thud. It doesn't have much ring or sustain. Nevertheless, some like it and a great way to get a bass sound in a compact instrument.

@LarsvanderSchans Год назад

So good to have video's like this. I have been playing clarinet and saxophone for years and years, and around 2 years ago I was done with it and fell in love with playing ukulele (this was something different). Now when I am getting better at it I start to focus on technique and theory. The cool thing is that a lot is the same, but on a clarinet or sax there is no concept like a chord or rhythm with your other hand. It's one note at a time. Learning this whole concept is really cool, and I love your video's. Thanks for making them.

Very useful techniques borrowed from Guitar playing that help the novice ukulele player get more out of the instrument. The "percussive" technique is often called the "chuck strum," for those who want to research more. Thank you for all you do!

I really enjoy your style with it and your technique. You make me want to play better each time I see your videos. Have you made an Instrumental CD of you playing the Ukulele? I would like to purchase one if you do. Also I know you also play the guitar but, honestly, which one do you prefer now that you also play the Ukulele?

@shop970 Год назад

It's very good. It is steps. It is correct habit in practicing those steps. It is those steps in time. In rhythm and pace of learning. Technical and typical for any fretboard really. Get comfy . Learn names. Shapes. And positions. Then play them smoothly. Then be glad ! It's rather easy & not steel string guitars!
