Clumsily put by me? It'd be easy with an ostensibly laid back subject to get loose with the teaching, but I really appreciated that the teaching points clearly flowed through the video with no lag or loss of focus. You haven't had to edit it to keep the points you've made clear. It's very skilful stuff. Kudos to you for that.

It reminded me a bit lessons of the Mindfullness-Based Cognitive-Therapy (MBCT) and the Meditation Stress-Reduction Therapy in my classes of psychology at the university. So with the ukulele (music therapy), that could be a good combination of a new type of an effective therapy to reduce anxiety disorders. Hahaha!!Keep it up my friend!!

Make sure you check out some of my NEW & recent videos… I always emphasize a light touch and resting often in the practice process...take your hand off the instrument in between drills… This lets you make sure your practice it correctly and doesn’t strain you. Take some time to become a habit but pretty soon practicing in an efficient manner will bring results… What this channel ukulele zen is all about. Thanks for watching!

Once you know those notes just add your own rhythm to make up your own (or copy my rhythm). The notes are (starting on C string - go to next string after ||): 0 3 5 || 3 6 || 3 6 || Have fun w it :)

Stu, Great Stuff. It's all about smooooth, yes? Question: do you let the nail on your right thumb stay a bit long to help with plucking or is that just a personal preference? I thought my fingertips on my left hand were tough, but all the sliding causes my hand to be more vertical and rubs on heretofore unknown tender parts. BTW, couldn't find a free tablature of this and was glad to pay you $2, but you might want to change how you present it. I always look for good new stuff from you. Thanks for sharing your talents.

Hi David. I DO keep my thumbnail long for playing melodies & fingerstyle on guitar, uke & charango. Not TOO long, but long enough to reach the strings with ease. This video was made before I started to charge for the download tab...I tried to make that change clear with the little video "annotations" that fly into the screen. In the future whether tabs are free of for a small fee - I will be clear about it from the start. Happy playing & thanks for writing!

@UkuleleZen
@UkuleleZen 4 жыл бұрын
The keys of C major and A minor are related (a minor is the relative minor of C major, and C major is the relative major of a minor)... It all depends on whether the backing cords are defining the key as one or the other… But you are right they do have a close relationship!

That song is a 12 bar blues - I'm pretty certain of it. This link is for the Key of E (guitar). Try using A7, D7 & E7 instead- will sit better on the uke. This riff works in the ket of C... tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/the_doors/cars_hiss_by_my_window_ver2_tab.htm

Oh...that? Just a little spontaneous lick. Sorry, no tab, BUT - I'm playing the 1st position blues scale & bending the highest note on each string. Watch it a few times & fill int he holes from this outline: 1st string bend 6th fret, 2nd string bend 6th fret, 3rd string "blue note" on fret 4, then fret 3, then open...you fish for the rest! (scat it & see if you can find the notes) Good luck!
