woooaahh this is amazing! so many people out there are just strumming their ukulele chords, but this guy is really making something amazing and extremely talented! :D does more with 4 strings than most people bother to do with 6! :D
woooaahh this is amazing! so many people out there are just strumming their ukulele chords, but this guy is really making something amazing and extremely talented! he did more with 4 strings then most people can do with 6. haha :D
@mattbear007 This is Jake Shimabukuro playing... I found his name, found an interview he'd done. SO here's what he has to say about his MAIN instrument. "It’s a Kamaka. I’ve played a lot of different ukuleles, but the Kamaka just has it for me. This one is a tenor-sized ukulele made of koa, and it has a Fishman pickup—they design special pickups for Kamaka. I string it with D’Addario strings. This is the only one I play—all my rehearsing, gigging, and recording is done on this."
Not that amazing.... I've been playing guitar 6 years and to be honest its an easy enough song to play on a 6 string instrument... never mind a 4 string one like the ukulele
@brainiac554 For the record, this is Jake Shimabukuro. He's been playing since he was 4 years old. He's 34 years old. That means he's been playing for 30 years. While you may think it's an easy song, I don't think it would sound that beautiful unless it's got experience to back it up. Shoulda called yourself egomaniac554.
rap and hiphop are cool, but people just don't get that they really aren't very complicated, and pretty much anybody can do it. this, on the other hand, is real talent.
Always good to read the info cos I thought he said he was playin the guitar and I was thinking no you aint that's a uke gotta love ukuleles and guitars too but this is just magical
@arcticmonkey100 OK first of all it is SOULJA BOY TELL 'EM and second of all they are FAMOUS because they are clearly entrepreneurs and know how to capitilize on their talent. They wrote probably one of the most genius hip hop songs of our time and they deserve all of the money they make AND MOAR. You shouldn't be so jealous
@5ame1n7he3nd Learn how to spell the word "more". Honestly this guy is good, one of the best I've ever heard. Soulja Boy, Soulja Boy Tell 'Em, does it really matter? He was just giving an example.
this is raw... i never heard this song before but you make it sound so beautiful, pretty, and natural. You have a wonderful talent and I hope you use it to your advantage.
Jake Shimabukuro is a phenomenon. Unbelievably, we got to hear him in concert in our small town a year or two ago (Hood River, Oregon) and I'll never forget him. A wonderfully likeable guy he seems, too!
