Brilliant tutorial Stu, so clear and easy to follow, started playing the Uke less than a year ago and with your calm and easy to follow help am now playing in a Uke band and enjoying every minute.my only regret is not starting years ago.

A great tutorial and all I can say about the mini concert is WOW! Thanks

I appreciate the explanation of the strumming simulating drumming . And you’re guidance with counting . It can be these little tips that can make a big difference , especially to self taught people like myself who rely on whatever I pick up . So grateful for the knowledge . Thanks again ~ Cheers . :)

I've watched a few of your videos and always get something out of them but this one, with your solo at the end, really put a smile on my face. Been playing the uke for maybe six months now and steadily building up a few skills and a play list but your lessons just add a whole new dimension and a whole lot of fun, thank you so much !!
