Maelström - Ukulele Original

Update: Tab for Maelström available on my blog:

I have had to replace the fretboard on my Fluke as it showed some dents on the plastic frets (read about this delicate surgery here:

I have recorded this video after the fretboard change and with new Savarez strings on. Maelström is a nice tune for performing a sound check as it involves both fingerpicking and strumming.

Hi Armelle lovely song have you got tabs please or power tab?

Thanks Phil.

[Armelle0808]

@philrab66 Phil, thanks for the nice comment. I haven't tabbed my song as I worked it out by ear.

If that can be of any help, I am using the following chords Dm, A7- Dm, C - Dm. C. Gm, - Dm , C, C7 and alternating between picking and strumming.

Very simple. Earthy. I hear a gypsy singing over the top. Or maybe just another instrument. A wooden flute. Well done.

@isca72 Thanks for your comment. Funny to read what you would do with this tune.

Hi Armelle I have tried to work out how you pick this, is it the same picking for each chord. I worked out you must be plucking 1 &4 together then 4. But when i tried to play it it sounded like you were doing this twice is that correct. If you have the time could you please let me know as I would like to learn it.

Thanks Phil.

Just looked on your webpage and realised it is your original song. I really like it.The chords will help but I can not work out which strings you are plucking. i have only been playing for 4 months.
