How To Play An Easy Ukulele Rhythm With Rakes

An easy Ukulele Rhythm with percussive rakes on beat 2 & 4!
The easy Rake technique involves hitting muted string for the percussive sound. It can spice up any rhythm with ease!
Use the palm of your strumming hand to mute the strings before striking them or use your fretting hand to mute the strings before your strum. Practice muting the strings with either hand before performing the Rake Technique. You should develop left hand and right hand muting skills which will make Rakes possible in many music situations.
We will use a I V vi IV progression in the Key of C Major for this example: C, G, Am, and F chords.
