Love this song, Gerald. One of the greats.
Hi Stroudtucson - thanks for watching and the good words. I've been playing fretted instruments for 45 years. Self taught but learned a lot from all the musicians I've played with. Advice: Play with everyone - you can learn something from everybody.
Thanks Jim. See you in a few months on the west coast.
Thanks Peter!
Hi Gerald - I haven't been in touch in a while, but I have been
enjoying your ocasional offerings such as this one. I hope you
keep 'em coming because they are a delight to my ears! Peter
Amazing, perfect
Another musical gift.Thanks.witold
Thank you Gerald. I think that is very good advice. It's kind of a musical journey I guess and the teachers are all around.
truly inspiring....
PERFECT.BRAVO !
Just wonderfull, as usual...
Thank you Gerald for this great performance, a quick video on your phone! Amazing, I notice you use a phrase I use “from everyone you can learn something” I add The trick is which to keep and which to throw away.
Thank you MrVInylment
Fantastic!
cool, Gerald....thx....nice changes.
Wonderful way to start a Monday, Gerald. Thank you for the enjoyment your playing gives to so many of us. And, sigh, you make it *look* so easy. That's a pro!
Amazing playing!
It's a standard 17" scale length tenor uke. It may look bigger because it's a custom made uke with a 1.5" nut. Most tenors on the market have a slightly narrower nut.
This is soooo good and what a beautiful tone! - loved it. AND no Uke player's face contortions as a bonus !!
Thank you Nick.
@@gbross Hi again - can't put this one down! - is there any pickup amplification on this. I can feel a focus from guitar to Uke coming on thanks to listening to you - hope I have enough years left to climb the early steps ! Thanks
Enjoy all your videos, your currently teaching me swing ukulele!
Fantastic video, I love your playing. You are teaching me a great deal just by my watching your videos.Thank you, very beautiful playing.
I'm all relaxed ..' Love it!
I love listening to the ukulele. I am going to have to pull mine out of the closet and pick up on your instructional videos. Thanks...Greg
That was far out. Great sound!
Thanks Tonya! Hope to see you at a uke event this year.
Thanks all - Ken... you heard me working out this tune at NAMM a few weeks ago. :)
Thanks Xavier!
Thanks Lorenzo D!
No lie, you are a terrific player. Can you tell me a little about how your learned. Are you self-taught? I have been playing for about three years but I find it is hard to find a teacher or lesson plan that keeps you moving forward. I learn little bits here and there, but it gets frustrating when you want to improve. Thanks so much for posting your beautiful playing. It's so inspiring!
How lovely. You've done me a world of good on a dreary day. Thanks!
Klasse!
Ha. I thought I had heard it recently.
Great playing....what is the scale length of your uke....the fret spaces look really wide compared to my tenor.
So is the string spacing close to that of a guitar?...i notice the extra width now but it still looks like baritone fret spacing...maybe its the solid fret markers
Thanks Tom!
Thanks all - Ken... you heard me working out this tune at NAMM a few weeks ago. :)
