clawhammer uke

Just a quick sound sample of my akulele played clawhammer style. I learnt to play clawhammer from this youtube video:

I am not that good at it and I don't know the song well but I think the akulele sounds good when played clawhammer so I thought I'd post a quick sample for anyone interested in playing clawhammer on a uke.

beautiful--nice playing. It looks like a charango style ukulele.

Thanks! You are right, it is made like a charango. It's a lovely little instrument.

Thanks!

I'm only a beginner at clawhammer but I love the sound and I'm hoping to learn some more.

charango is my main instrument (I keep saying that, but really I play ukulele mostly now lol) and I have been tempted to get a charango style uke from boliviamall

Thanks Pete,

I'm thinking about doing just that!

You've certainly got the clawhammer motion down, now you have every excuse to get yourself a 5 string Banjo!! ;-) Pete.
