[aemdragon5]

Did you say the Jake Shimabukuro concert was in Guam?

[davoomac]

yeah! jake had a concert on Guam!

[daveyuke8]

like it a lot. Thanks dave

[oldvolkz]

did you forget a chord after the Bflat.

when you first play the whole song you do a chord right before you to the 55 3 1 0 2third fret. time 1:50

[jbrowsingj]

Aren't your string numbers backwards? I always thought

G was first

C was second ect.

[davoomac]

nope, thats how they are numbered! :)

[BumbleMarkizme]

dude!! friggin awesome

im actually learning a hard-ish song.

not like only 4 chords that are repetitive!!!

[davoomac]

I'd love to see you post up a video if this helped you learn it!

[LennyPlatinumstein]

very good ..didnt watch listened ...hmmmm A PLUS LADDY

[holtzholtzholtz]

guitar is overated

uke will rise! >:)

[utiyama]

nice! I will try it.

[spacedogs]

I try this !!!

youre good teacher

[holtzholtzholtz]

uke is harder than guitar

[FullXClip00]

thats hella sick, i wanna play the ukulele. i can play the guitar already so since theres only four strings is it easier? its a great instrument

[davoomac]

If you play the guitar already then playing the uke will be much easier for you. I'm sure you already know how versatile the uke is if you've seen guys like jake shimabukuro and james hill.

[FullXClip00]

alright thanks alot man you play it hella good, one day ill hope to play as good as you keep playin tho!

[Tbannu]

yay!!! i wanna uke!!!

[FingerboardOwner]

hey dude.. i first played guitar.. about 2 weeks ago i bought a ukelele.. from guitar to ukelele is hard... the first day is hard.. play about 2 hours each day and it will become easy :) it's worth buying one!

[elsanchokaki]

nice playing. but why do you play the uke? i would have it hanging on the wall for the autograph not to get screwed up

[davoomac]

I take this uke all over the place and play it all the time and the black sharpie hasn't even shown the slightest bit of wearing off. :)

[elsanchokaki]

good, i say it cause i have a guitar autographed by carlos santana and i keep that out of reach

[FingerboardOwner]

wow thanks dude! i realy liked it.. i have my uke now 1 hour.. and i can do it now!

[tgirl0412]

wow! this is great! you are a very patient teacher! :) thanks for your time!

[davoomac]

not a problem.  :D

[bingcro]

you are very good and patient instructor

[lonboi808]

dang i wanted the 8 string kala like ur tenor but they ran out:(

anyways thanks for the help

[mastermoeking]

i just got my ukulele so i have been using your vids to learn how to play. thanks

[davoomac]

[davoomac]
