is that an oscar schmidt uke?

@ukenutcase

Hey, you got good eyes! Yes it's an Oscar Schmidt acoustic/electric. It's the first real uke I've ever had, my first one was a first act from Walmart. When I bought it about 4 years ago, I assumed it strung up and tuned like the bottom 4 strings of a guitar and I was very disappointed with it. At some point later, I discovered it tuned up completely different from a guitar so I had to learn some different chord shapes. The first two ukulele songs I put on youtube were on that uke.

Thanks for your kind comments. But it's been a while since I've done a "live show". The last was about 7 months ago at the mexican restaurant down the street from my house.

I love it, saved as a favorite, and makes me smile everytime, but that's the smallest guitar I've ever seen :)

@susaca

Haha, guitar--that's a funny name to call a ukulele!

[Vegakingz]

I like your version and your shirt, but you're missing the diminished chords so I made my own version. Ciao from Italy's one man band...

This is a delight to find. I lived in Hawaii as a kid from 1957-59 and I remember this song. It is a standard for Howlies learning to hula dance, but there was a local entertainer name Lucky Luck who had a variety show who would sing this all the time. At that time the only live television was local. Everything else was film flown in from the mainland.

This is so awesome! I wonder if you could do me a favor and post the tabs/chords for this? You rock!
