Imagine your guitar with a capo on V, playing only the D-G-B-e strings, there's your ukulele.

That’s the tuning for a tenor uke. If you put a low string on the bottom it is much more like playing a capo v guitar.

Why are ukelele such godamn happy instruments.

A Hummingbird uke - now there's something I haven't seen before.

always amazed by pete's playing. such a joy to watch!

Sam: I don't know how to play eukelele Pete: Here's how you play a 12 bar blues in C.... Sam and Pete start jamming...

You do know that there is also a baritone ukulele that is tuned DGBE, so it’s basically a regular guitar without the E and A strings. Very easy for guitarists to get used to without transposing chord shapes.

The Tobacco Burst version of that Epiphone Hummingbird Ukulele is way more classier looking than the Cherry Burst version. I bought the Tobacco Burst version the second I seen they were available a few months back, as I needed a Uke for a recording and it's a killer price for a well constructed Ukulele that also has a pick up. It's a shame that Ukulele's have such a bad rep due to people thinking it's an "Easy Instrument" and they only bother to learn 4 chords and think that every song is a simple C-Am-F-G7th chord progression. As if you learn to play it properly, it's can be an amazing addition to your repertoire, and it's soundscape is unlike any other instrument. It's just unfortunate that the vast majority of people playing Ukulele now are people with no intentions of progressing past 4 chords (or the third fret), can't tell if their instrument is in tune, and they are more concerned with following a Robotic Strumming Pattern as opposed to learning different chords and chord voicings. If you click on any Ukulele Cover/Tutorial video, the comments are always full of people panicking over "What's the Strumming Pattern?" as opposed to just naturally being able to find the Strumming Pattern through their own rhythm. ... or people complaining about the difficulties of playing an E Chord and instead of learning the chord, they just say "Oh just use an E7th Chord instead!". The Ukulele is a great instrument, but Modern Ukulele Players are hands down the laziest Musicians and they give the Instrument an unfair and undeserved bad reputation.

I've got a Floyd whammy & Burstbuckers on my uke. I keep it drop-tuned. 🔥

My son taught himself to play the uke. He’s pretty good too. I can play some too, and I used my guitar knowledge and music theory. As for lead, I’ll just start with chord tones and go pentatonic.

Pete playing the ukulele is the perfect example of innate talent vs getting good just by practicing.

Ukulele videos were not something that I had realized I needed until today!

Intro sounds like something you'd hear over a Lloyd's bank advert :-)

Ukulele with a pick?! Sacrilege! All of Hawaii will rise up and consume us all.

This was awesome. I subscribed to this channel for acoustic paradiso, but there's never enough! Keep it up guys

George Harrison was a serious ukulele advocate and player. There are stories of him stopping over his friend's homes and passing put ukuleles from the trunk/boot of his car. My kid loves her Cordoba Concert Uke.

That's amazing. I didn't know that about George. Adore him, so as a ukulele player, this little fact nugget made me smile.

Pete really is the guy you meet and within an hour he’s your best friend.

Only these chaps could trick me into watching a Ukulele review and end up enjoying the whole damned vid. Point to you, good sirs.

more more more ukuleles love it

Balalaika wars?

You guys are good for a moment there I thought I wanted a ukulele. It seems to have passed.

Do i see a Rob + blindfold Uke challenge coming up? Can he tell the tone wood and cheap vs expensive uke?

Some guitarists say "I don't know how to play a Ukulele" but they don't realise that if you put capo on the 5th fret of your guitar and forget the top two strings you LITERALLY get a Ukulele. Bam!

I'm here just for the jams!

fingers on use not picks! There are different tunings. Some have the four higher strings of a guitar some have a high G. My dog has fleas.

Once again Pete proves how amazing he is. That man would make a shoe box with elastic bands sound good....

This was so amazing to watch. I want to be able to jam like this. Seriously, this was so wholesome. I would totally buy ukuleles from you if I was in your area.

That Fender sounds nice

Could you please plug one of those into a Marshall stack and handle it to Rob. 😂

I think that Fender sounded best of all.

Never ending story.... Greatest intro to a youtube video ever

I've a Gretsch concert uke, great fun.

That guitar hanging on THEIR left in the background looks sick! Matches with the wall as well!

i have 5 ukes. 3 of them are different sized. fun instruments to play particularly with a guitar.

Excellent stuff!

Gives credit to Grace Vanderwaal for his daughter who is learning to play...

I'd be interested in the string comparison for ukulele!

I went from disgust at seeing ukuleles to admiration at how well you made them sound.

This is AWESOME!

Also... a gear related question. What was the amp that you plugged the ukes into at the end? I'm thinking of investing in a Fender Mustang amp and am hoping I can use it for my uke, acoustic guitar and electric guitar. What do you think?

Yamaha guitalele are pretty fun too.

Liquorice is a powerful laxative of course...

Ukes are so much fun! I love my Alvarez

I have a Fender Kos Uke and love it. Where can I get a hat like that??? great vids guys!!!

Lol learning on the go, looks like you guys enjoyed this more than you realised.

Never ending story

Just imagine a guitar with capo at 5th bar, the two lowest strings eaten by snakes and the G-string sexes it up one octave, then you have the ukulele

The melody from the never ending story in the intro!

Fender zuma ❤️❤️❤️

Who let the islanders loose? Great video!

You two bastards are way too good, fantastic!

nice jam at the end

Kinda wanna get an Alvarez but is that too flashy for a first ukulele that I'm only gonna play when I'm bored of guitar?

As an owner of a bunch of ukulele's that range from a $60 Kala to a $1200 Kamaka HF-2 get yourself what you want that's within your price range. I recommend theukulelesite.com as they set up every instrument that leaves their shop. Keep in mind some of the most expensive Ukulele's are boring to look at.

Guys, I need some help here. Which one should I buy: Alvarez RU22B or Mahalo MA4KA? :)

Great video. Anyway, here's Vanderwaal

Loved the shredding on a Uke! If you want to see just how versatile the Ukulele can be, check out James Hill doing "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" on the Uke... absolutely incredible! kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yquu1advZ7KbpKg.html

Are y'all going to go over the line of SGs Gibson released? I would love a video like that

That's one piece of wood I would happily burn....

"Shredelele -time"

You might not know a lot about ukes, but you sure played the crap outta them as brief as it was.👍

You did not just do a ukelele video. Worse yet, I did not just watch a ukelele video and gave it a thumbs up.....

Tuned like a guitar, with capo on the 5th :D so chords can easily adoptable

Problem when you play a tenor; low G or high G?

@kingstumble

5 жыл бұрын

A low G tends to make it sound more like a guitar whereas a high G is a more typical ukulele sound. Also you might find a low G is better suited to fingerpicking but it's perfectly possible to pick with a high G too. In other words it doesn't really matter! Try both.

@@kingstumble Thx, the confusing thing was some ukulele stars do indeed use the low g, others use the high g. If you want to play like those with a low g, you need to replace your strings. Or have two ukes. But I agree, low g is more like 'plain' guitar. I had the intention to learn to play James Hill's Billy Jean (there is a tutorial on YT), but found the restringing cumbersome, as I wanted to keep the typical ukulele sound for my other songs.

A ukulele is just a smaller, happier guitar ^.^

Nice cap, Pete.

I thought that it was a video with weird al' yankovic

You must take those black strings off the hummingbird and put a set of Aquila supernygut with a low G and it will turn that ukulele into a monster!
