This video is between 7 and 11 levels of freakin' gold. Been tinkering with my uke for a while now, pretty much KNOWING I'm holding/playing in unnatural positions... but not knowing how to correct my issues. THANK YOU for helping me identify my problems, and actually see past these issues!

A very helpful video. Answered a lot of questions. Thanks for taking the time to address these.

Thanks, that was very helpful. I've been playing like five years and these are still good reminders to listen to.

I've been playing stringed instruments for how many years and I still didn't know about any of this? Wow. This explains all my problems. Thanks man.

Thank you! This is awesome. I started playing at the beginning of to pandemic, suffered tendonitis in my fret arm and was unable to play for 7 months. Your video is very well explained and very thorough. Thanks again 🥰 - Tom 🤙

Absolutely awesome! So helpful and particularly around the 6 minute stage, I’m having real issues with my wrist which is defo not in the right position. So, so helpful. Thank you!

I'm working out years of squeezing with my thumb and bending my wrist, so this insight helps. A lot of this is new info for me! Love your videos and I hope you're faring well through this time. Ukulele is something helping me through so videos like these are so worth my time.

Great advice!

Good info.

You just amaze me!

THankyou really helps

Such good info! And perfect timing because I just realised the other day that part of the reason I'm having difficulty with chird changes is because I'm using my fingers and thumb to hold up the neck. Thanks again!

Thank you so much,, so helpful ! ..now as I apologize to my Uke for trying to strangle the fret board... ...

Very well put video! Thank you so much! I really like the left hand part when you said the strength is from the weight of left arm and the back muscle instead of pinching between the thumb and other fingers. But I still have a question on the right hand position that has been bothering me for a while... when I press the uke against my body with my right arm, it seems like I need the left hand to press the neck back to the body to balance it. If I need to play open strings, the neck would shift away from my body because the counter pressure is gone.. Is that normal? It feels unstable sometimes.

Bassists know best. :)

Ever drop an ukulele mid-stunt?
