My all-time favourite, as it sounds so peaceful/soft/soulful- and I can imagine when I play it in my home- which room? When I first started to play on this instrument, I did not even have a ukulele to start with. I used to listen to the ukulele while playing my guitar. My first ukulele to […]
My first lesson with ukulele wasn’t at the school but my auntie’s place. She showed me the violin lesson I have to do. I was so scared, I had no idea how to be a musician. Once I started, I was playing my first real concerto. Before that, I was a violin prodigy in my […]
The guitar playing instrument. When did it dawn on me that a solid body guitar would be a better choice than the hollow body? Well, I was in a car with an electric guitar which had a good quality metal case on it, I asked the driver if it would be OK if I played […]
No, but it does have a nice range, nice neck flex and it can bend. The neck bend has not been the best I have seen in a good reason, but once again it has not been the worst either. I have not had an issue with the sound of the instrument either- it sounds […]

“He’s got some serious chops.” Are you playing with any of your original band members? I was playing at a gig in the East Village last night. I came out on stage for a bit, and one of the guys had a guitar that he used to play with. They told me it was his […]
If so, why?” There you have it, for those of you interested in learning these tunes. I hope you find this exercise useful. If so, then you can start using this simple technique on your own. The “Sine” Technique If you are not using a metronome, it might help to start out by playing Sine. […]
No question, but guitar is much more precise. You can play every single note better than they are on harmonica. If you think you are good, you are. If I take up the guitar, what’s the one characteristic I’m going to take with me? Music. Music is what is important. Be a musician! Can I […]
Many people choose a ukulele for its looks, but many ukulele player don’t always feel that the look is very important.
