    Here is everyone on Page 3!

    melanie – Great job! Keep up the great work!

    mark1256 – Nicely done! One thing I would practice is making the notes hold out for the full length. Some notes in the melody sound a bit choppy. It sounds like just an issue with transitioning notes and chords, which is tricky with solo playing like this. So keep it up because you are sounding great!

    ccwuke – Very nice! Keep up the good work!

    qiuyan – Great job! I would try to make the melody stand out a bit more from the rest of the arrangement that way it starts to sound more full and complete. One way to do that is to accent certain melody notes, and make sure the notes are clear and pronounced. Otherwise everything sounds great!

    lyndallk – Awesome job! sounds great. Keep up the good work!

    misterbones – Sounds great! Right hand technique looks great, keep up the good work!

    terryfallon3 – Great job! I Would practice the transition a bit more that way everything sounds smoother and so it flows better. You have all the notes and chords down and they sound great so keep up the good work!

    rebeca – Great job! One thing i would try is adding a little rubato here and there to give it a more natural flow. Your playing sounds very delicate which is great! So i think slowing and speeding back up gradually will give this a more personal feel to it.

    barbecueblack – Nicely done! Sounds great, Keep up the good work!

    wongbrown – Sounds great! Keep up the good work!

    robinboyd – Nicely done! This sounds great. I like the tempo you played it at here. Very clean performance too! Keep up the good work!


    antitoxi – Sounds awesome! keep up the good work!

    shmu88 – Great chord transitions! Sounds smooth and clear. Great job!

    katazumiri – This is great! I really enjoyed this a lot. Awesome job and keep up the good work!

    myukemylife – Awesome Job! I would try to smoothen out the transitions so the melody will sound a bit softer. but everything sounds great! Usually when I learn a new arrangement, I focus on that part last after i have learned and practiced the piece. This last part is what really makes any piece sound great. Great job!!

    june2020 – Sounds awesome! Keep up the good work!

    debb1985 – Very nice!! Right hand technique looks and sounds great! Clear chords and melody too. Keep it up!

    hollus – Nicely done! Great timing and flow through out. I really enjoyed it. Great job!

    willymac – That was great!! Awesome lead playing. Very clear and articulate. Fantastic job!

    brettboy & @nthibode – Amazing job guys! Loved it. Keep up the great work!

    Here is everyone on page 6!

    karenj – Nice job! I would just spend a bit more time on the B section and watch out for those buzzy notes! Looks like for some of them your finger was placed right over the fret bar, so try moving your finger a bit behind the actual fret, that way it rings nice and clear. Other than that, great job!!

    terryfallon3 – Sounds great! I would practice the melody just a bit especially the transitioning of notes. They sound a bit choppy at certain points because the note is being released too soon before the following note is played, causing a short gap. Practicing it slowly and making sure each note gets its appropriate duration is going to make it sound smoother. But overall it sounds great so keep up the good work!!


    qiuyan – Great job! Very nice performance. Your technique looks great and the rubato sounded very nice as well. Keep up the great work!

    lisa-k – Nicely done! For the chord melody part, there were a few parts that sounded a little choppy on the chord transitions. So I would smoothen that out by making sure the notes last the appropriate duration before switching. So practicing it slowly and paying close attention to the movements in the transition will be a very helpful way to do it. Sounded great so keep up the good work!

    deadbuggy – Love it! Nicely played and I enjoyed the rhythm a lot. Great job and keep up the solid work!!

    themccoys – Nicely done!! Great feel and technique through out. I would say just to work with the bits that are higher up on the fretboard. I always have to be extra careful since I have big hands and sometimes I don’t get my fingers sitting on those smaller frets properly and so I get some buzzy notes. So just make sure you focus on finger placement as you get higher up on the neck. Sounded great overall!!

    richo_uke – Great job!! I would say to continue working on those transitions with the chords and melody as some of them had some sting buzz. Also make sure that each note gets its appropriate duration and that you letting go of the note too early! Other than that I think this sounds great, so keep up the great work!!

    dividedsky – Great job! Very nice performance with great feel and timing. Keep up the good work!!


    morrieuke1 – Nicely done!! Great playing and very nice performance as well. I would just watch out for some buzzy notes with a few of those barre chords in the B section. Other than that I think you sounded great. Beautiful uke btw!!

    lizzieswolf – Nice job!! The A sections sound fantastic! I think the B section could use a bit of practice just mainly with some of those chord transitions. Once you got to the chord you sounded fine, so work with getting from one chord to the next smoothly and accurately. Great job overall so keep it up!!

    turkgoose – Great Performance! The only thing I would say to work on would be the arpeggio bits on the second and third strings. In a few parts the notes get a bit muted on those strings, So make sure you have your fingers placed on the string with enough force as well as making sure your fingers aren’t slightly touching the other strings causing them to mute. Everything sounded great otherwise!!

    brettyboy – Fantastic! Very nice performance. Not much to say here other than keep up the good work!!

    robinl – Great Job! Those chord changes are almost there, so keep up the great work. If you aren’t already using a metronome, I’d highly recommend it. Practicing with one consistently makes a world of a difference especially with things like chord transitioning. So keep it up!

    ccwuke – Nicely done! Your rubato sounded very nice throughout the piece along with your vibrato! A personal style preference that I tend to do is to go back and forth with slower and faster vibratos through out the piece. I think it gives a cool variation to the sound. But that’s just how I play it. Great performance all around. keep up the good work and awesome Strat and Les Paul in the background!!

    taylor22jane – Awesome job!! Very nice performance. Your technique and feel were consistent through along with your tempo. So great job and keep up the great work!!

    marianne – Awesome job! Your rubato technique sounded great, and all the notes sounded very clear with a nice tone. Great job!!

    stefanic10 – Great job!! Most of it sounded really nice, so just keep working on some of those chord changes throughout the piece. Practice it slowly and make sure your technique is good and gradually start building up the speed in the chord changes. You’re not far at all so keep up the great work!!

    lhamilton – Great job!! I think the A section sounds fantastic, so I think the B section could use a bit more polishing. Basically the main thing I’m hearing is some notes being sightly muted and not ringing out fully. So just make sure your fingers are sitting on the strings properly especially when you’re further up the neck. Great job!!

    lhamilton – Great job on this, too!! I would take some of the same ideas I mentioned on Spanish Romance and apply it here, too. There weren’t many muted notes on this one, so you’re almost there! Keep up the great work!

    biancak – Awesome job!! I think you performed that very well. Keep up the great work!!


    stianukulele – Fantastic job! Your picking technique sounds awesome and very smooth and consistent. Keep up the killer work!!

    marlongas – Nicely done! Your rubato technique was really smooth and nice to listen to. Overall very great performance. Definitely keep up the good work!!


    idarrow – Nice job! I would continue to work on the B section, and getting to sound as smooth as the A section. You’re not too far off, so just get down some of those chord changes and transitions and you’ll be there in no time. Great job!!

    Here is everyone on page 4!

    gstriph – Great job!! The A section sounds fantastic so I would focus the practice on that B section at this point. It’s a bit trickier, but you’re almost there! your picking looks and sounds fine, so I think knocking out that B section is all there is to it now. Keep up there great work. Also, your ukulele is beautiful!!

    effortless – Fantastic job!! that was a great performance. Not much to say other than keep up the great work!!

    johanna2509 – Awesome job!! That was also a very nice performance. Very clean and clear. Keep up the great work!!

    ukandrea – Nice job!! I would work a little on some of transitions in that B section. The chords get a bit stretchy there, so you want to make sure your muting technique is good during those transitions to avoid extra string noise. Overall you sounded great and you tempo was very even though out the piece. So great job!!

    pippin105 – Sounds great!! One thing I would focus on are those chord transitions when you lift your fingers up from the strings. When you do that, use muting techniques to get rid of the string noise caused by lifting up your fingers. The open strings are ringing out slightly, and although it is subtle, once you get the muting down you’ll hear that it makes a big difference!!

    wongbrown – Very nice performance! Nice and smooth all the way through. Once you got up high half way through that B section it started to sound a bit challenging, so just make sure at that part you’re getting good contact with the fretboard and getting a nice and clear tone from the note. Otherwise great job overall!!

    bethany_gaurdiani – Fantastic Job! Only thing I can say is watch for those melody notes as you slide up and down the neck. Since there is so much movement going on it’s easy to hit a note slightly off causing it to buzz. But everything else sounded great. Keep it up!!

    debb1985 – Nicely done! Tempo and rubato sounded great. I would focus on the higher portion of the B section as it sounded a bit challenging with some notes in the melody and the arpeggio being cut slightly short. Overall I think this was a very nice performance, so keep up the good work!

    Here is everybody on page 3!

    bibilele – Sounds great!! I would keep practicing your vibrato technique as it sounds really nice, but I think it could sound a little bit stronger and smoother. Maybe vary the speed of the vibrato through out the piece. For this kind of tune I would go for a slower vibrato to add to that element romance. I think it sounds a bit more dramatic. Great job overall!!

    kittycatlin – Great job!! Very clean and smooth performance! One thing I would recommend is to slightly adjust y our picking hand to where your hand is sitting over the strings and then your finger come down from the top of it, that way when you pick, your fingers done move too far past the string causing extra movement. You’ll also have more dynamic control this way! That’s just my approach, but your performance sounded great. Keep it up!

    mademoiselleannette – Nice job!! One think I would try is to incorporate some slight variation between your thumb and index finger when possible, that way your thumb isn’t doing all the work! I know that this song has that certain strum technique, but there are some places I think adding the first finger will help out as well. Great job!

    robinboyd – Great job!! I would try to add a bit more rubato throughout the A and B sections. That adds a really nice flow especially with solo instrument arrangements that sounds so good. But everything else sounds great. Keep up the great work!!

    lyndallk – Sounds great! Your picking technique looks nice so I would just focus on some of the notes in the chords and melody in that B section. Some of them were slightly buzzy, so just make sure you’re placing your finger on the fret properly. I would also go with a slightly slower vibrato as I think it adds to the dramatic feel of the tune. Awesome job again!!

    shmu88 – Nice job!! I would add some more rubato throughout, as this is a very dramatic sounding piece, having that slight tempo fluctuation really adds a lot to it and makes it sound super special and more emotional for you, along with others that are listening. Great performance though!

    biancak – Sounds great! Really nice performance. Great job!!

    marlongas – Great Job! Everything sounds nice and even, so keep working with it to get it up to full speed, however it does sound nice slower. You’re almost there so keep it up!

    cncamacho – Sounds awesome! One thing I would try doing is adding some rubato and softer playing dynamics. It’s such a delicate sounding song, so I think having that softer touch will go a long way. Great Job overall!

    mister bones – Very nice performance of this piece!! I like how the melody stands out a bit more from the arpeggios underneath, and it stays like that all the way through. Very nice to listen to. Great job!


    Awesome job again! I would say there were some very minor transition buzzes from a couple of the chords, so just watch those transitions since there’s a lot going on in this arrangement. I think it sounds great otherwise!

    santai – Great job!! Taking it nice and slow is great because everything sounded smooth and consistent. keep working with it and gradually work it up to tempo. Keep up the good work!

    henri0 – Awesome job!! Very nice performance overall. Keep on rockin’!

    emiliano – Nice job!! Main thing I would focus on would be the dynamics. Try to soften it up a bit by playing the arpeggios lighter that way the melody can stand out a little more. Other than that you sound great!

    lynnwatson – Nice Job! Couple things I would focus on would be the hammer ons and making sure the volume of the note matches the note prior. Also, make sure each mote rings for the appropriate length of time so they don’t get cut too short. Other than that, great job!

    iyers408 -Nicely done!! I would mainly watch the rhythm of the melody as it’s slightly different here. Also I would focus on the notes being held for the appropriate duration since it sounded a little choppy at some moments. Otherwise great job!

    lakeside339 – Nice job!! just keep practicing it and getting it up to tempo. Everything is sounding nice and even so far so keep rockin!

    mac1984 – Great job!! Very nice performance. I love the soft dynamics here. Smooth and consistent. Great work!

    givingtree89 – Very nice! Main thing I would watch out for is making sure your fingers play right in the center of the fret. Sounded like the notes on the Low G string would buzz here and there. Everything sounded nice though. Great job!

    rIggler – Excellent job!! Very nice performance and great tone too. keep up the great work!

    maryjanew – Nice job! I would just continue practicing and getting everything nice and even and up to tempo. You’re sounding great already so at this point it’s all about repetition!

    cloud_cactus – Very nice job!! Your picking technique looks great. Just work with that first chord of that B section a little bit and get that transition a bit cleaner, but otherwise great job!!

    goody2shoes – Sounds great!! Very nice and smooth performance. Keep up the great work!!

    kirpuff – Great job!! The main thing i would say is to work on that percussive slap a little bit more. Try to watch the timing a little bit. there were only a couple times where one was slightly off time, and maybe give doing it on the strings more instead of the body a try. That may make it sound a little less harsh. Great job otherwise!!

    schaap123 – Nice job!! Very nice performance. Only little thing I would say is to get rid of some of that noise caused by moving around with the uke. I’m sure a big part of it is the camera making it louder than it really is, so just make sure you have a good grip on it as you play. That’s really it! Awesome performance!

    aloooy – Fantastic job!! I enjoyed your performance a lot. Sounded super solid to me, so keep up the good work!

    janaq1 – Great job!! Super clean performance. I really enjoyed listening! Not much else to say so keep on rockin’!

    coffeemug – Nice job! Main thing I would work with are the transitions from notes and chords. They sound a little choppy at some parts due to the note cutting off a bit too early. So just make sure each note rings out for the right duration and you should be good from there!

    jkulele – Awesome job!! Very nice performance. Not much to say so keep up the good work!

    b_ukes_101 – Great Job!! Everything sounds and looks great, so keep it up and practice getting it up to tempo! I’d also recommend keeping the alternating fingering for the melody instead of doing it all with the thumb on certain parts. All the extra movement with the thumb can make things sound a bit choppy. Sounds awesome overall!

    celia21 – Awesome job!! Very smooth performance. Technique looks solid and everything flows nicely. Keep up the great work!!

    cimarronsailor – Nicely done! Everything sounds great so just keep working with it and slowly build up the tempo. Pay some closer attention to when you’re higher up on the neck. Since the frets get smaller it’s easy to get a lot of fret buzz. For me at least! Keep up the great work!

    cinichol – Great job!! Keep up the great work. I would just work on a few of those transitions after the end of each of the main repeating melodies. There is some slight hesitation so once you get that up and running It will sound smoother.

    zukulele – Nice job!! Dynamics sounded great. Really enjoyable to listen to. Keep up the great work!!

    firemanwife2012 – Great job! I would smoothen up the transitions a little but and soften up the dynamics just a bit. You got the song down though! So just work on those couple things and then the song will sound smooth and nice. Keep up the good work!

    kittycatlin – Killer performance! Only think I would try is alternating the first and middle finger for the melody when there are several notes in succession. That will smoothen the flow and make it sound a lot cleaner. Also less movement for your index finger. Great job and super cute kitty!!

    karenj – Sounds great! One thing I would work on is making sure each note is held out for the appropriate length of time. There were some notes that were cut short, so be aware of that and you should be good from there!

    joannaetala – Great job!! I really enjoyed your performance. Only thing I would work on would be the transitions between melody and chords. There are parts that sounded a little choppy, so just focus on making all the notes ring out as you play!

    andyrose – Sounds great!! The main thing betides the hammer ons and pull offs are the dynamics. The way I like to do it is to have the arpeggiated parts slightly quieter than the melody which allows the melody to stand out a bit. Ant hen from there you can experiment with changing they dynamic levels from section to section. Otherwise you sound great!

    robinl – Great job!! Very smooth and even performance. Not much else to say but keep up the great work!!

    uku_on – Great job! I would mainly just get some of those chord transitions down a little bit more!! Lots of cool chords in this piece, and it uses the whole fret board essentially, so just focus in with those transitions since you know the chords already! Great playing so keep it up!!

    mademoiselleannette – Fantastic job! Very nice performance overall. I enjoyed listening! Keep up the great work!!

    malenieh – Great performance! Not really much to say here. Keep rockin’!!

    pika80019 – Sounds great!! Very nice dynamics and technique. Keep up the great work!!

    concan – Nice job!! Another nice and smooth performance!! Not much to say other than keep up the good work!

    angeline – Fantastic Job!! Those hammer ons and pull offs were spot on! Really great performance. Keep up the great job!!

    alana_ – Great Job! Very even and smooth through out the entire piece. Awesome performance keep it up!!

    rickeymike -Sounds great!! Main thing I noticed was the rhythm of the melody. The first and third notes are being held out a little longer than they should, causing the rest of the piece to feel a bit slower. Once you get the rhythm adjusted I think you’ll have it sounded very good!!

    tric_o_tronic – Awesome job!! I would experiment with alternating the picking between your first and middle finger for the higher strings. You’ll be able to play it more accurately and get it up to tempo. Give it a shot and see!!

    turkgoose – Great job! The percussive slap sounds great and not too loud and overpowering. Awesome performance, keep it up!!

    tsetsova – Very good!! Super clean performance! One thing that might be cool to try is softening the dynamics on the arpeggiated notes so that way the melody stands out a little more. That’s one thing I like to do, so give it a shot and see how you like it. Great job overall!!

    sdorunga – Sounds great! I would just work on that B section a little bit and get it to where it feels comfortable. There was a slight hesitation as it came in. Try to get it where it flows smoothly with the main melody and you should be good from there!

    laurakarr12 – Awesome performance! The tempo you played at was very nice. There just a few minor things where some notes were not as loud as others along with some fret buzz, but just keep practicing and that stuff should fix itself really. Otherwise great job!!

    bemarlie – Sounds great! I would just continue to work on the transitions between each chord. It’s almost there!! So keep up the good work!

    stianukulele – Great performance! Technique, feel, and timing were all sounding very good, So not much else to say. Keep rockin’!

    oldan_ – Awesome Job! Everything sounded solid. Keep up the good work!!

    whollyprofit – Sounds great!! Your rubato sounds great as well as your technique. One thing I would say is work on the dynamics a bit so that everything isn’t all the same loudness. Overall great job!!

    somasoma321 – Very nice!! Great performance of this piece. Keep it up!!

    lisamcc – Great Job! Not much to say here. I enjoyed your performance!

    andrewvh – Awesome job!! I would mainly work on the chords and melody higher up on the neck. That’s still something I have to really focus on when I play, so it just takes a bit extra focus and practice for those bits. Great job overall!

    jayton – This is great! Only thing I can think to do to make it better is just play it all the way through a bit more, and focus on getting all the notes and chords sounding at the proper duration. there were a few notes that were cut short. That can make a piece sound choppy, so once you get used to it , it will sound so much smoother!

    dal08260 – Sounds great!! I would just spent some more time practicing those transitions from chord to chord. You know the piece well, There is just a bit of hesitation here and there before chords. Other than that it sounds great!

    ukandoit – Awesome job!! Not much to say. Really great performance! Dynamics and that percussive slap all sounded very nice. Keep up the great work!!

    addilein – Great job!! I noticed a few notes in the main melody were being cut short slightly, so work on those notes and getting everything at the same duration and that particular part will sound much clearer! Sounds awesome though. I love the tone of that uke!!

    annemarie – Great Job!! Not much to really say here. I enjoyed listening. Keep up the great work!!

    yukalele -Sounds great!! Love the tempo and feel you played through out. Keep it up!!

    ebetsimo – Fantastic job!! Those trills sounded great as well as the whole performance. I really enjoyed listening. keep it up!!


    lissid – Great Job!! Only thing I can think that can clean it up a bit is to watch your muting technique. As you’re switching chords with the melody, the open strings ring out as you move your hand. It’s a very common thing when doing chord melody style playing, so working on your music is a great thing to do in order for things to sound smooth all the way though. Sounds awesome!!

    rockmyuke – Sounds great!! You nailed the feel and the flow of the tune. I would just work on making all the notes sound clearer. There’s a few here and there that get slightly muted or cut off. So just be aware too that as you play and practice. Over all it sounded fantastic!

    kanae926 – awesome job!! Not much to say other than I really enjoyed listening. Keep up the great work!!

    unclemymy – Awesome job! I would mainly just focus on the percussive slap. I think it is slightly too hard for this particular tune. So Practice and see if you can still do it, but control the dynamic of that slap a little bit. It’s a super cool thing to add to your playing but it can be challenging to do it within a chord melody arrangement. You’re almost there though so keep up the great work!!

    rufio0 – Great job!! Technique and everything sounded great. Only thing I really noticed was that low G string was flat. So just be careful with that! Tune again and again until the string is stretched and holds tuning. Otherwise killer job!!

    ccwuke – Great Job! Technique and feel sounds awesome though out the piece. Keep it up!

    mozcyc – Awesome job! Very consistent and steady. I enjoyed listening! Keep up the great work!

    ukulelee – This sounds great! I actually really enjoy the slower tempo of this piece. I always hear it played fast but this has such a cool vibe slowed down. I heard the slightest bit of fret buzz so just make sure your fingers are playing right in the middle of the fret and with enough force! keep up the great work!!

    robinboyd – Awesome job! The harmonics were a nice tough. Not much to really say other than keep it up!!

    amylilley – Great Job!! There are a couple chord changes I would maybe focus on just a little bit. The part at 0:40 there is a slight hesitation as you get your fingers ready for that. One thing I do all the time is add some rubato to slow the part down naturally as I prepare for the next chord change. It’s kind of a sneaky way to do it while still sounding nice and natural. I do it all the time for sections where there’s a change i can’t get to super quick. Overall you sounded fantastic !!

    katazumiri – Great job!! One thing I would pay a little attention to is the last note of the main melody. As you switch chords the last the note of the melody is a little too short. All the notes should be the same duration or else it can sound a bit choppy. It’s not a huge deal but it will make everything sound more polished!! Awesome Job overall!!

    gmflin8 – Awesome job! I would work on some of those chord changes a little bit and watch out for that stubborn fret buzz. Make sure each finger is placed on the middle area of the fret with enough force and that should fix that. Great job and I love the background!!

    Awesome Job!! Really nice performance here. Keep it up!

    oldan_

    Sounds great! I would say practice it just a little bit more because there is a slight hesitation before some chords. There are a lot of chords in this piece so that’s very common. I have the same thing with songs like this. It just requires a little extra practice. You should great so keep it up!

    pgoody

    awesome job! I would just work on the chord changes a little more, since there are a lot of chords in this piece. The more familiar you are with it, the quicker you can transition from chord to chord. Sounds great overall!

    uku_on

    Great Job!! The things i would work on come from practice. Getting everything to sound a bit smoother and dynamics and rubato. you have the piece down so keep it up!

    cyberloh

    sounds great! Only thing is i would work on the vibrato a bit more. it’s more so in the wrist more so than the whole hand. Doing it with the whole hand can tend to sound unnatural and really shaky. Vibrato is a tricky thing to get down at first, but you want it to sound as smooth as possible. The rest of the piece sounds fantastic though so keep it up!

    unclemymy

    sounds great!! I would just say to practice those chord transitions a bit more. This song does have a lot of chords so spending some extra time to get those transitions down can make a big difference. Killer job overall!

    themccoys
    Great Job! I would just work on those chord transitions a bit. There are a lot in this song and it can cause you to hesitate for a second right before the next chord. So just get used to each chord change in the song because once you break that slight hesitation, everything starts to sound smooth. Awesome job!

    dividedsky

    Great job! I enjoyed your performance. Keep it up!

    iyers408 – Great job! I would say to work on the last quarter of the piece. That sounds like the only spot you were having a sight issue with. Just comes with a bit more practice to get everything smooth with no fret buzz and stuff like that. Keep it up!!

    mac1984

    sounds great overall! Just some slight little things i heard here and there (fret buzz and a couple of dead notes), but overall this was awesome!! Looking forward to seeing more from you next month. Keep it up!

    lakeside339
    Great Job!! You definitely got the right vibe for the song in your performance. So keep it up! Hope your power comes back on very soon!!

    lildivil

    Great job!! I couldn’t hear too closely since the audio is being cut in and out on the video, but it sounds like you played it very well! In your webcame software on your computer, look for a setting that says something like “reduce background noise”. A lot of these welcomes will think instruments are background noise and will try to to cut the audio out. The setting should be under audio settings. See if that helps! Great job overall!!

    Great Job! Timing was good and so was the tone of how you played the uke. Not to bright or dark. I use a slightly different fingering at some parts but that can just be a personal preferance. Sounds awesome overall!! Hope your arthritis gets better soon!

    Sounds great! I would watch for fret buzz. It usually comes from not enough force being pressed on the string, or playing the note too close to the fret. I only heard it mainly in the beginning, so it’s not a major issue!

    Great Job! To me it sounds a little choppy so a couple things to practice would be dynamics and rubato. Using both of those will make it sound smoother and not all the same in terms of the loudness of each note. Having it vary it volume and tempo makes a solo piece like this sound really great. You have the piece down so I would just work on these couple things. Great Job overall!!

    Awesome job! I would watch out for that string noise where it sounds like you not pressing on the fret when you hit the string. It’s a simple fix, you just have to be aware of it as you go to play each note. I only heard that mainly in the beginning so you should get it in no time!
