Welcome Scott! This Friday’s lesson will be right up your alley – it’s episode 5 in our Concepts Lessons series and has a lot of guitar friendly technique in it 🙂
You’re too kind Kit! I opted against letting members leave comments on lessons b/c it leaves the page looking cleaner and simpler. ST is right, please post here 🙂 I check every post!
Lol, no – but you are onto something. I can’t give it away yet, but there will also be a very fun twist with the upcoming challenge. Details coming middle of this month 🙂
I used to watch WWE as a kid too 🙂 Funny thing was I thought it was real, until one day a dude jumped on another dudes head, but the camera showed he was a mile away and yet the other guy acted like it hurt lol!
I’ll add this to my request list Shashank!
So I’m behind on feedback – as we had 10+ submission on the last day – waiting till the last minute, come on guys, lol joking! 😉

jobyer – great job, keep up the good work!
kala_uke – Always amazing to see someone tackle #2 – it’s a toughie! You did very well! I would recommend to slow the tempo down a bit to focus on the timing and transitioning from one section to another.
argonite – very nice! My only suggestion is to watch the timing on that open G string – as it is a half note.
sebastian – fantastic, keep it up!
sifkek – very well played! Great job!
yukalele – Awesome job for your first time! I don’t believe you lol 🙂 It looked like the uke slipped once – this lesson may help to better stabilize it if you’ve noticed that’s an issue.
kktisk – Great playing!
4753173 – lovely! Similar to kala_uke, I would recommend to slow the tempo down a bit to focus on the timing and transitioning from one section to another.
hyzenthlay – Awesome! I would recommend to work on the B melody transitions. Try 1 or 2 bars at a time, work on getting the muscle memory down for the chord shapes and then practice putting it together 🙂
vissttoor – Very nice! Couple suggestions, watch your timing as some sections “speed up”. Also, I would try to fingerpick with a lighter attack. Give that a shot and see if it makes the uke sound “sweeter”.
mrfrimm – love the intro! You did awesome! I would suggest to correct the right hand wrist, as it looks like you pick/pluck from an awkward/bent angle. Check out this lesson for some tips on right hand form.

Thanks again to all who participated! You guys rock!
Wow! We had 32 site members participate in our first challenge for the month of March! I am blown away and extremely humbled. Remember, the take away here is not the prizes but the fact that you rose to the challenge and set a goal to learn the etude, practice it, perform it, and share it with our community. Congrats again to all who participated! Our next monthly challenge will be May 2017, stay tuned for more info! Watch the YouTube video below to find out if you won 1/3 ukuleles!
Hey Brett, good catch! I never realized I contradicted myself. I’m going to give 1 entry per person for everyone who participated, regardless of:
1) playing the entire etude or only partial
2) posting more than 1 etude—
I’ll be sure to clarify the rules better for the next challenge.
