  • i can`t tune mine. it doesnt sound the same when you strum it and its really annoying. any tips? thanks. i really wanna learn the uke!!.

  • Get a clip-on tuner for your instrument. I recommend the "Intellituner" this should solve your problem. If you have an inexpensive uke it may still sound out of tune slightly and this is due to the construction of the instrument. You'll have to live with that, just get the tuner to say G-C-E-A from the top down for starters.

  • Benny, I am loving these, just bought a uke today, been watching your videos all evening, who was your inspiration to learn? mine was "Bruddah Iz" Israel Kamakawiwo'ole...

  • George Formby was my inspiration but since I learned "When I'm Cleaning Windows" I havn't done a single one of his other songs! Theres so many great tunes out there I couldn't resist branching out :-)

  • benny ur mi home boy!!!! I had to perform it in front of a whole bunch of people but i didn't no how to play it when i went on and watch all ur video it helped me a lot i mean a lot!!

  • Glad to hear it :-) Keep up the playing!

  • THe music at the begging is epic =)

  • you can use a choramatic tuner to tune a uke

  • after you say turn over what are the chords?

  • can you just explain strumming pattern coz it sounds like down down up down down up is that right ?

  • I have a soprano, But can you make a new video for like beginner beginners. And could you take more time showing the chords. I think you have chosen some great songs, I think your the best uke teacher on youtube.

  • how much is the uke

  • i like this song more than that one from Ep.1!

    5 stars

  • Thanks Mrclarky for Yr response. Actually I use my Guitar tuner to tune G, E and A strings. And for C string, I do that by ear. I wonder if it works like that. I have one Uke since 2 days and want to learn but It's weird... I'm a bit lost with the tuning! So sad :(

  • depending on the tuner, most normal guitar tuners will not be able to recognise the notes as they are not used when tuning a guitar.

    i just use my pianno, G C E A

    also a good way to remember this is:

    G:good

    C:chefs

    E:eat

    A:a lot

  • Can we use a turner Guitar to tune an Ukulele?
