[x5lani5x]

[BozoMeFatty]

[TheUkulelePanda31]

@BozoMeFatty Yeah.

[pierrevaldez]

[jerryfinsternumber9]

What is your ukulele tuned in?

[jerryfinsternumber9]

Concert version plz

[gr0bi18]

sry for the beginner question :D...you play on a concert ukulele? or tenor?

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@gr0bi18 Tenor

[Kayapotribe]

What kinda Uke does the local boy have?

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@Kayapotribe Ko'olau

[werty718]

hey wats up with the sound i cant hear a thing!

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@werty718 Mono signals on some smaller laptops or phones,ipads do that for some reason on this video . you have to plug in speakers or headphones. Sorry bout that

[JtCh0]

i cant hit that fifth fret while holding the Dm chord with my pinky!

my hand is too small... lol

[EstanBulLoFre]

Am I the only one whose pinky finger can't stretch out to hit that fourth fret on the first chord?

[ThePaintedUke6887]

HI,  Do you guys know where you can get a custom ukulele made in Oahu, for a reasonable price???

Thanks!

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@ThePaintedUke6887 What is reasonable and what do you consider custom?

[ThePaintedUke6887]

@HawaiiMusicSupply I was thinking about having my name in abalone or mother of pearl in the fretboard and a slotted headstock. I don't really care on the brand, as long as its good quality. I was thinking around $400 but I could go higher or lower but I would rather not spend over $800.  Thanks!

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@ThePaintedUke6887 No way I would ever believe someone could do that here and make anything. In fact the price for the inlay could be more than that. You gotta save up or luck out! Thanks for the inquiry

[ryoya1983]

Thank you soooo much for the great lessen! but I want your voice bigger next time. a bit hard to catch you. anyway, I can't wait the second video of this!!

[darkstar3472]

where is part two?

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

my son pushed over my camera and it died ;( or we would have part 2 already, hang tight, I have insurance-

[LipiXx483]

wow i didnt now that i could learn this in 5 minutes :D

thanks! and keep up the tutorials (:

[randomguy12345678901]

hi, i had a quick question for anyone that can answer. the uke i got doesnt really show the dots on the neck and it doesnt have any on the sides, what can i do to either make the dots show better, or can i just put like stickers on the side?

[UkeBeth]

Thank you! nice tutorial :D looking forward to part two !!

[randomguy12345678901]

can you try and make a tutorial of Jake Shimabukuro's "hula girl" i cant find and decent tabs or tutorials and i really want to play that song :P

[No1BRC]

thanks a lot- it's much fun to work through this lesson :-)

[nathanewa]

@Yomhas35 while my guitar gently weeps

[mexicansnowglobe]

whens next vid coming ?

[mexicansnowglobe]

i all ready figuard all of that out on my own

[kclawson64]

Nice tutorial. Thank you!

I would like to suggest a simplified version of the One Note Samba (James Hill arrangement) for a future tutorial. Dominator has a video and a PDF with tab, but that is for a Ukulele that is tuned to ADF#B (Low A), and most of us that are new to the Ukulele are tuned to GCEA.

[ThePaintedUke6887]

you guys should do me and shirley t

[LSteen39]

Hey, I love the Tutorial with a second Guy to Bounce things off... Hes asking the questions we have that often get glazed over.. thanks you guys Rock!

How Bout trying domething out of the realm Like Michael Fronti and Spearhead's "The Sound of Sunshine"

[prettiwiki]

Hey Dude,

Would you be able to do a 143 Kellys Song tutorial?

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@prettiwiki We sure can. Thats a really nice song. We'll work on it. Thanks for the suggestion. Aloha!

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@Yomhas35 It really depends on how much time and effort the individual puts into learning songs. For some, it may take a few days, maybe weeks to learn a single song. For others it could take just a few hours. Both songs have a few technical points that could make it difficult to learn but I don't think either song harder to learn than the other. I believe its more of playing Jakes Shimabukuros style that some may find difficult to pick up and follow.

[MrFlyingPanda]

can u do his strumming? can u show us how he does it, even if i ll never be able to do it

[MrFlyingPanda]

yeah!! THX

[CurtainGuy]

Thanks very much for posting this.. I've been waiting for someone to do a good job teaching this song. I like that you explain all the different methods of playing it.. (3rd is my favorite) I also like the little bits of music trivia here and there (harmonic minor scale, etc) Looking forward to the rest!

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@CurtainGuy Thank you for watching. I'm glad this video was able to help you. Stay tuned for the rest of the videos. Aloha!

[ThePaintedUke6887]

dang it! I learned it the hard way..... just before this came out..... :(

[4nim4trix]

Wish I can the uke as well as you guys x_X

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

Of course you can!  Just practice everyday and you'll get it in no time. Aloha!

[JJ4reel]

I honestly love you guys. I'm gonna go to Hawaii one day and thank you for being so amazing.

[HawaiiMusicSupply]

@JJ4reel I'm glad that we could help. Thank you for watching. Aloha!
