  • chuck not chunk stupid.

  • @southernbassman

    Chuck is a person, Chunk is a sound when used by ukulele players. Ask any other respected ukulele players. I tend to go along with what Aldrine Guererro says; Chunk!

    thank you and have a nice day.

    oh and if you people would read the info, the link to the "chunking" tutorial is in there.

  • @Ryrod watch?v=eZxOof50iqk dudes straight out of a Hawaii music store and says chuck. google it

  • @southernbassman

    Alright, I guess it depends on who it's coming from. Arron at HMS is awesome and if he says "chuck" that's fine with me. Aldrine says "chunk", other people say "chunk". Again it just depends on the person.

    There was still no need for the "stupid" comment.

  • @Ryrod sorry for the disrespect man,

  • how do you chunk? when i do it, it doesnt sound like a chunk. P.S. im a beginner and just got my first uke last week

  • @ItalianMafia36

    The best way to learn is to go to: ukuleleunderground(dot)com and type "chunk" in the search bar. Seriously, Aldrine gives the best advice on the subject.

    I wish I could paste a direct link but youtube is funny about that.

    Keep practicing!

  • @Ryrod haha i just looked it up! i understand it now!

  • Hi can you make a video of you just playing all the way through please? i've learnt all the parts but i can fit it all together :/ x

  • @charliegreen95 i agree, you did a really good job with that, but i kind of need a final summary

  • my version is a little different idk i just had a different output... left a video response of mine

  • Thanks dude really helpful keep it up

  • How many times do you "up, chunk" for right after the intro.

  • @TheWWYT

    3? I haven't played the song in forever. I'm pretty sure it's 3.

  • @cuds18 it's called both smart ass

  • you do know its called a "chuck" not a "chunk" right?

  • @Cuds18

    straight from ukulele underground

    "UKE MINUTES, Aldrine addresses a question that we’ve been getting a lot lately … “So how, exactly, do you do that ‘CHUNK’ thing??” Check it out. The chunking technique is used to add a percussive sound..."

  • The best youtube ukulele tutorial I've seen so far! Great teaching, it was really easy for me to learn! Thanks for posting, and keep posting!

  • instead of the g major, u should use g7th

  • whats the chord progression for the bridge part? Kinda got lost at this part. Is there a D thrown in there? Great tutorial thanks!

  • How do you play the D chord?

  • @NikkyNic

    Either bar the G,C, and E strings with your index finger, or place one finger on each separate string.

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome tutorial!! Keep em coming!! Thanx 4 sharing the knowledge....

  • The ending to this video is super confusing and I'm having a hard time learning what you're trying to teach... The rest really helped and you went through the steps, but I felt like you stopped going step-by-step towards the end.

  • @Ryrod hey at 3:54 when ure doing the c7 cord.. what is the strum pattern? u dont say it and i can watch ure hand quickly enough?

  • @Bamleft13 I'm pretty sure it's the same as the Em pattern before it. I just sat here and played it and I think that's it.

  • if you dont want to chuck you can simply mute all strings and it is a similar sound to chunking

  • for the begninning part can you tell me if you chuck and pinky at the same exact time? or is it one after another? thanks. great video dude helpin alot

  • @aznzoned it's the same time. actually, you don't even need the pinky mute.

  • @Ryrod yup. Disregard the pinky. If yo do a good chunk there is no need for a mute.

  • cool video, cool song, cool you, cool everything!

  • Awesome tutorial.  I just picked up a Uke' about two weeks ago. And with absolutely no previous musical experience, I am starting to get the hand of the song with your help. Have you considered doing any tutorials on Iz's songs? Kamalani, Heneheno Kou Aka, etc?

  • @dagwood4 I don't know how to play Kamalani, but check out DOMINATORUKE here on youtube. He's got 2 tutorials for Henehene Kou Aka, the main song and the solo part. Thank's for the comment/

  • how the fuck do u chunk...i rly cant figure that out cause u aint touching the strings but it does the "chunk"-sound?

  • @9konsti3 I do touch the strings when I chunk. It's hard to explain, but Aldrine at Ukulele Underground does a great job explaining it. I'll post a direct link to the lesson on the sidebar because it won't let me here.

  • @Ryrod should i get this chunking right away? or is it a learning thing? ive been messing around w uke for about a year and have never been doing it the way they show it on uke underground....looks like i have some catching up to do

  • @td321 it's definitely a "learning thing". Chunking took me awhile to get good at. All I can say is what everyone else says, "practice, practice, practice". I've played a uke everyday since I started in January '09 and I'm still learning and getting better at "beginner type" things.

  • @td321 Very helpful - youtube[dot]com/watch?v=RrJvuz­hMxGs

  • Good job

  • Great job man, you make it look easy :)

  • Thanks for the video. Very helpful.

  • great work! i learned it in 1 hour and i´m a noob at playing the uke

  • great, im glad this help out.

  • Ahh okay I can play it and its awsoem but my hands are so tiny i cant Use my pinkie to mute it haha.

  • good job. all i had to figure this song out was the tabs, but some parts confused me. you cleared alot up.
