@imnewwave An even better Cadd9 = 5435, particularly on a low-g tuned ukulele

Good lesson. I understand the diminished chord thing much better now.

Hi Mike, You are the best in teaching ukulele..! Singapore needed you badly as a Profession ukulele teacher. SINGAPORE JO

[SomebodynamedTor]

Great explanation. One thing I use to add when explaining this is how to figure out which of those 3 variants is which.. it's like this: If you want to play, say, a G diminished, just select the variant where a G note is one of those 4 strings.

Hi Mike.

I go to Kona a lot. Did you meet Ponchman at Just Ukes? A lot of Uke stuff goes on in Kona. Can you tell us some of the things you did,Uke wise, in Kona? I will be going back there in Feb.

Hi Mike,

As someone who's starting to study music a bit more seriously after years of tinkering, that's incredible useful (and interesting) to me - thanks so much!

As for the lack of moustache, two things:

a) it's your face and I'm sure we'll get used to the new version!

b) take a look at the song 'Moustache' by Sparks on youtube, if you've not seen it before - it's a minor classic!

Cheers!

Greg.
