lildevil – beautiful playing, Barbara! Love the laid-back feel and coupled with your shirt, it really makes me think of Hawaii 🙂
johanna2509 – your triplet technique is phenomenal! But I do have one critic. I’d say you nailed it 75% of the time. So what I would work on is getting the execution consistent, so we get that number closer to 100%.
And super cool to see Berny’s uke 🙂
alex2531255 – Excellent playing! Great note clarity and sustain. And I LOVE the birds in the background – it makes the ambience of this piece so beautiful!
cncamacho – I thought you did a great job! Timing sounds great as does the triplet strum 🙂
propsfpv – Sounds good so far! I do think Loke is easier, so you may want to work on that one as well.
laurasil – Bravo! You did so well on everything, especially that solo! I’m impressed 🙂
The only thing I can suggest is to play along with Evan in the tab player. That’s always a great way to practice!
@rebeca – Well done! I really dig the rubato you used at the mid mark of the tune (before 30 sec). If I remember right, Chris did that too. It adds a cool stylistic touch!
The only thing I heard that stood out was what I’m guessing is a little stumble for the last walk-up (48 seconds). I’d keep that section steady to match the feel of the rest of the piece. But overall, great job!
@ukelars – Here is my feedback for you 🙂*** HEADS UP *** We’re switching the day for this month’s live stream.

unclemymy – Great job! I thought you did really well, the one thing I will suggest is to target your practicing on sections that you stumble on.
So for example, bar 17 and 18 are toughies with the big stretch requirement. So you want to practice 16 going into 17, 17 to 18, and 18 to 19, before putting it all together: 16-19. In essence, you’re focusing on one phrase.
Ohh, and don’t forget to tune before you record 🙂
taylor22jane – I loved it! I just shared it on our social media. You guys rock!
LOL – I had the same realization when I first heard EVH play guitar. Literally, mind blown!
Thank you so much for the support, Taylor. And wow! I just watched your fam jam. Totally gonna share it on our social media 🙂
Hi Anne, reach out to him via his facebook page 🙂
noonka – WOW, bravo! I don’t know what to say, that performance left me speechless. Amazing playing 🙂
morrieuke1 – Bravo, Michael! Your playing is getting better and better every time I listen! Love the laid-back feel. Excellent job on sustain and just the overall vibe. You aced this piece. Keep up the great work and thx for the kind words!
raffybaking – Hi Raffy, this feedback is for Loke Lani. The ending (fingerpicked) part is perfect, good job there! But for the triplet strum, your execution of the right hand technique is more in-line with rasgueado rather than the triplet strum. Check out the lesson that Matt taught to learn a few ways to perform the right hand technique. After you work on it, post another video and we’ll make sure you’ve got it down 🙂
robinboyd – Wonderfully done, Robin! I’d give you the same feedback I left for Michael. Both of you nailed the big takeaways of this song. Keep up the great work!
voyager – Well done! Here is my feedback for you 🙂
I’d recommend going through the entire Fingerpicking Course. It was written to not only help you get acquainted with 3 ways of fingerpicking, but also to help you recognize when to use which approach depending on the context of the music.
Judging by quick glance, the music you posted looks like either a 4 finger approach or hybrid of 3/4 finger approach would work well for it.
