  • That's really something. I love the sound.

    I guess I'll have to add a metal strung tenor taropatch to my project list.

  • I jut had a world class ball playing along with you on my tenor uke. Thank you so much for the fun. I am your newest fan.

  • Really nice picking... and what a beautiful uke !

  • @ackeim amazing! i love your version of this song.

  • This is really great! Thanks! I'm getting a ukulele soon. I love "Railroad Bill." What a classic song! Maybe someday I'll write my own uke cover!

  • Could it be played this nice on regular 4 string ukulele? (pineapple/soprano/concert) Because I so fcking love this and I want to play this:D

  • @BajusTom of course, go for it!

  • Please forgive my ignorance, are is that an eight-string? (Four strings doubled)

  • @wesmatron Looks and sounds that way ;)

  • @JavidOnd Thought so. I was taught this tune very early on in my guitar playing journey by an old guy with bent and broken hands... almost twenty years later and I can't get it to sound even close to how authentically he played it. Thanks to YouTube I found others playing it too.

  • @wesmatron yup= 8 strings with each one doubled

  • Thanks for demonstrating what can be done with the ukulele

  • Wonderful cover!

  • wow...this is great...thanks

  • beautiful!

  • Man, that's similar to Freight Train. Nice playing and singing.

  • I generally hate ukeleles, however this sounds more like a mandolin, with a bit more sustain, so its good.

    exelent playing and singing aswell.

  • Oh Aaron, How I wait for a Tutorial on ragtime picking! Im loving this song! Ramblin' Jack Elliott does a great version.

  • That´s brillant! Your style of playing is amazing.

  • Hey Aaron, nice, makes me think a little of freight train by elizabeth cotten. Is that the the uke you brought along to the ukefest in Vicenza?

    Cheers!

  • Wonderful playing and wonderful taropatch... I spy koa and ebony? And are those tuners all planetary?

  • nope, just normal friction pegs

  • I suppose that's a good thing... was wondering about weight on the headstock.

  • Wow!!! Beautiful taropatch, both sound and looks.

  • A fine looking (and sounding) uke and some seriously cool picking :)
