Just signed up on Patreon and think that's the best move I ever made. There is so much great information there to learn different songs, get the tabs, and lyrics to sing along. This is very exciting stuff! I just printed out the tabs to this song on Patreon and working on the timing. I'm starting out with just the strumming until I get a little better since I'm just starting out. I usually strum with a pick but it seems to sound better strumming with my thumb. I seem to have trouble strumming with my finger as opposed to my thumb. Thanks again!

Just gonna go ahead and plant the seed; Thanksgiving will be here before you know it and a tutorial for "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" the quintessential American Thanksgiving song would be most welcome. It builds on this song really well.

Thanks for the time to reply stu. Been playing since December and after years of not playing guitar its the best 90 quid I've spent. It's opened up a new world of music I thought I wasn't interested in. If you do the ' hesitation blues' or ' who stole the lock of the henhouse door' I'd be made up. Thanks again Dave from the UK.

Could you please show how to count the syncopation pattern. Thanks P

@@UkuleleZen When you show it slowly, you play seven notes and I think you rest on the and of 4, though to be honest, I'm finding it hard to tell. But when you play it full speed, I could swear you're playing eight notes. What's that eighth note? Or am I being misled? Or maybe the question is, you told us about seven notes (pinch (MT) , I, T, M, T, I, T), but their are eight eight notes in a measure. Where are you putting the rest? Or if you are playing on all eight eighth note beats, what are you playing on the eighth?

@rachitsingh98 3 жыл бұрын

This is great! Thanks for the fun lesson. I was wondering if I want to play it only the Baritone, apart from changing the chords to the key of G, should I also change the fingerpicking pattern? It sounds good when I follow the same but not quite the same as what you do...so if you could help me out with that, it would be awesome! I had the same doubt in the Bob Dylan video too when we did 4 2 3 1-4 2 3 2 picking.

@UkuleleZen 3 жыл бұрын

Go for it! I think modifying patterns and making them fit into our own way of playing is a good thing!

@rachitsingh98 3 жыл бұрын

@@UkuleleZen Okay! I added an extra pinch on string 3&1 after the first part of the syncopation pattern. It sounds good to me so I'll go with it! Thank you again for encouraging this experimentation in style. 😄

@MrJaynickel 5 жыл бұрын

Never got around this one, now I did :) Thanks so much!!! I found playing A instead of A7 better sounding. Ab is just not such a good bass note for the A7 chord. An alternative would be to play straight A with middle finger on 3rd fret on E-string. Doing so would result in A7 but then with A in the bass instead of Ab. Does this make any sense? Anyway thanx for sharing these songs with us!

@billstoye3628 5 жыл бұрын

MrJaynickel - playing the E string on the third fret is G, just like the open fourth string, only up an octave (with a low G string). The G note is the seventh of the A chord. There is no Ab note.

@volkersessler8976 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Stu, what happened to the B7 chord, did you erase it to make it easier??

@MariUSukulele 4 жыл бұрын

Hello Stu. I realize that for the split bar you do not follow the whole pattern but play the first half twice instead. I can only assume that handling vocals simultaneously might 'cause' that. Is that so?

@UkuleleZen 4 жыл бұрын

That’s a good point Marius. Sometimes I think things through and sometimes I just play and feel… I believe that if a person is keeping the rhythm and enjoying themselves that’s enough. And yes… Sometimes patterns change due to what we’re singing it’s all up to you really 😉🎶😎 happy playing!
