I’ve been TH-cam ing ukulele tutorials since the pandemic hit, and I’ve absolutely loved your teaching style. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise!
Great 'Brown Eyed Girl' lesson Stu! Brand new ukelele player on my Enya Nova Tenor here and you got me having fun and improvising like a pro. I noticed my C string sounds off on the D7 (2020). So I'm muting it or using (2220). Open C string is dominating the others like a drunk in a midnight quoir!

Thank you Jose! Have fun jamming on this riff 😊🎶🤙 There are a lot of cool perks waiting for you as a patron of the channel - whenever you feel called to join, happy and grateful to have you 🙏🏻
Thank you for joining in and learning with this video. You’re on the right track with your comment… However, may I add this: the speed will come when your wrists and hands feel relaxed… And of course, when we feel relaxed. Use breathing and go slowly patiently when you can play it accurately at a slow speed, the faster speeds will naturally come.
I think that's a great idea -- pick hwoever you feel most comfortable. Persoanlly, I find the thumb makes a bigger, richer sound, but that's just me. Many ways to feed a cat ;-) Thanks for watching & jamming Kevin!
Hey Stu! Do you know what I like the most about your videos? Well, aside from the fact that your visual aids are top-notch (chords, tabs, sheet, and now bpm, come on!), it's the fact that you are the Master at tone of voice, relaxed attitude, and calm expression. You drip Zen my friend. So much so that after watching some of your vids I sometimes feel like building a yurt in my backyard so I can sit in it and contemplate my navel. Thank you for all you do. Peace
That’s not a bad habit… That is precisely the habit I’m trying to offer! Great job! This is using a guide finger… The more you become aware of using it, the lighter it’s touch becomes… Gliding up the string like an ice skater gliding over a frozen lake. Happy jamming Gordon 😊🤙🎶
Mahalo Stuart! You are an excellent teacher!
Mono-tasking and move like a glacier…, be the glacier! I Love It and now I have better explanation for my speed. Thank you!

Hi Stu, how are you? I mis you! 🤗🌷🎶❤️
ooh my hand ain't used to that lol. Love it!
I know what you mean! 😊
For me the hardest part is accepting that the speed will come if you play it properly. But only if you play it properly!

Hi from France,very interesting videos 😳🎼👍just a question,is your ukulele a tenor model ?
Thanks
Francis
Thanks! Yes this is an tenor ukulele 😊
Love it. What do you think about pinching the top 2 strings instead of strumming?
I think that's a great idea -- pick hwoever you feel most comfortable. Persoanlly, I find the thumb makes a bigger, richer sound, but that's just me. Many ways to feed a cat ;-) Thanks for watching & jamming Kevin!

Glacial, is perfect.
When I slide, I just leave my index finger down, add/delete ring finger as required. Is this a bad habit?

A riff from an Irish-ish man 😊
Glad you enjoyed it Gavin! Happy jamming and give Seán my best.
