That was beautiful! I'm impressed
BEautiful Arrengement. Not much impressed by his technique the arrengement is sweet though, anyone from Venezuela would understand why.
i'm so very impressed. i've got one of those guitars but hardly can figure out how to play. this guys really inspiring.
i never knew the uke had so much potential. I always though they were kinda dumb. Isn't that a baritone uke?
i think many underestimate the ukele. same with the banjo. there are monster players out there that are looked over. the current bluegrass scene is where the shred is.
Nice!!! :grin:

I'm not sure why everyone's so impressed... it's a very nice arrangement, sure, but nothing that technically complicated. I've never played a uke, is it hard or something?
Fast arpeggiated fingerpicking is deceptively easy, at least on regular acoustic guitar.

I don't think everyone's impressed because of his technique but rather the way he plays. Man he feels the music and that's a nice arrangement. I'm not really knowledgeable about acoustic guitar playing, maybe that's why I liked his technique as well.
Not to be a dick, but if it is so easy, please post a link of yourself doing something similar.....MehYam said:I'm not sure why everyone's so impressed... it's a very nice arrangement, sure, but nothing that technically complicated. I've never played a uke, is it hard or something?

In think it is impressive because of the playing which is sound, the nice feel and the arrangement. All was very together and professional.
You know, it is not all about the wammy bar and loud chords.
wow, that was awesome, tearin up the uke !
Sure. Here's a sample that emulates his fast finger picking part around 3:35, which I think is the hardest part of what he's doing. As for the fast strumming, well, play along with any Who tune where Townsend plays acoustic, and you'll be doing tight strums in an afternoon.jimmi said:Not to be a dick, but if it is so easy, please post a link of yourself doing something similar.....
I'm not saying his performance isn't good - it's great. It's just odd that so many shredders on this board get ripped apart for their technique, which is much harder to learn than this.
Hmmm.... That is not quite the same thing as his is it??? Not saying it is bad but not really the same level. It is not about speed it is about what is being played. If you listen he is not just doing rolling arpeggios (which is what is on the clip you have posted), has is playing 2 to 3 parts at one time. There several distinct parts and overlapping sections played in time... Very different and very hard to do.MehYam said:Sure.
