[Psyphax]

Omg good

[atippon]

I'm searching for this last part tutorial for some time.

Great Jobs Quijan09. Thanks a lot.

Your uke is beautiful and has great sound too. ^^

The strum part of this song makes my right hand got numb. : b LOL

[aloha1971]

Quijan09, thanks for the great video. I got the strumming for the first 4 chords (DDUUD). What is the strumming for the next chords? It is hard to see in the video because too fast. Your response is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[aloha1971]

I meant DDUUUDD for the first 4 chords.

[mdgsdg]

fret numbers please! i cant figure out after the beginning part... it wasnt explained

[simplysweeet0011]

holy shit that fast

[stevenfamily]

Really enjoying learning this tune after one year of being self-taught.

I appreciate that you have probably re-posted this many times but for some reason, can only find (1 of 6) and this tutorial on the strum.

Would you please repost (2 thru 6) so I can save to my favourites.

Thanks in appreciation

great man, good tutorial. I cant play all the notes, I have an uke with only 12 "boxes" so.... for the high note it sound more like" sprichk sprichk" than the note but I have fun thx

[ryder631]

Dude you should make a video of the whole song cause your version is so sick! Please

[430OREOS]

are there any tab sheets with this that'll be awesome in helping me learn this

[CoolReign]

If you want to play it accurately "like Jake," I would suggest that you listen for the accents rather than listen to every stroke or strum. It'll make your playing much more enjoyable. Remember that Jake plays it differently every time he plays...like a real musician...

[Invicskim]

Im prettyy sure he does some triple strums sumtimes after 1:19 along with the fast strummin

[CoolReign]

@Invicskim He does play triplets...the rhythm is like "Bolero," but with quarter note trips at the end of the rhythmic phrase. / /// /, /// /, /// / / /

[uprock12]

Just wondering, what kinda strings do you have? Low G?

[Quijan09]

Na, I stick to High G tuning, and I use Tenor D'Addario Ukulele strings from Guitar Center!

haha xP

[Quijan09]

Uhh. . .I'm starting to have second thoughts about trying to make a tutorial of the whole song, sry bout that brah.

It's just that its such a long song that I'd be stuck on that video for hours upon hours and yeah.

But I offer an alternative, go check out Dom's site at:

dominator(dot)ukeland(dot)com/­index2.shtml
