    I'm 60 years old and have been playing blues shuffles for quite a number of those years and never came across this form of it. This is fantastic and goes to show that old dogs can learn new tricks. Thank you very much for your channel. For your skill at both playing and teaching. I very much appreciate your hard work and generous gifts to us less gifted pluckers.

    Is there a chart with the exact chords. I learn better when I see things written. I am a beginner, coming from another string instrument, in which i am intermediate.
    I'd be willing to pay for the chart. Thanks

      ​@first_fret of course it is E7-A7-B7 but... except for E7, they are not in 1st position and also I thi k you are very good at mytting string.
      I believe a video in blues atrumming pattern would be awesome. Thanks.

      Uke player here. We can. It just isn't the same feel.
      The 12 bar in C sounds better than in E in the Uke.
