I've known James for 6 years now. And I can say with the utmost respect that not only is he an amazing player, but a truly great person. Well done James!

Oh I'm not referring to chords, just to the range of the instruments. James Hill has access to more complete arpeggios and has a wider range of notes to choose from. So certain ways of playing songs sound better on different configurations. Chords can be transposed, but the fact is that a wider range of notes is more verseatile, and give more leverage. So, Jake works with less range and thus gives a different appeal to all his songs. XD sorry if this was confusing.

@ChanimalCrackers The open chord for James' ukulele is D. Jake's ukulele open chord is the traditional C. I don't know if Jake can play D chord, but James can play both. It's not too hard to learn the D chord. Just need to learn how to transpose the keys.

Don't forget that James Hill has more notes to work with. His ukulele is a low G, while Jake's is a high G. Jake only has about 2 octaves to work with. The two are practically different instruments.

@jblackbath I'd say James. I've hung around with other talented musicians at a musical camp. James' improvisation skills make Jake's written music sound at an intermediate level. Can Jake tap his fingers on his ukulele sound box, sing, and play simultaneously? Search: James Hill and Billy Jean on YouTube. You'll be amazed.

@hoorano Jake is also more musically interresting. James is more traditional.

Maybe my explanations were too advanced for you? What if I talk more in a language you might understand: Goo-goo-ga-ga, music + competition = good.
If that's still to much for you I can always take out the puppets, douchebag! rotfl!!!

James is more technically proficient. Jake draws in the audience with his emotional appeal.
