Thanks! Check out the updated video I did on this tune - more complete instructions etc ruclips.net/video/Tfiu5pIkwRc/видео.html
Kelly, a catchy tune. One of my favourites along with Cathy' Clown by the Everly Bros. Excellent tutorial by youself. The Uke oozes quality plus. A joy to listen to. Thank you.
@@thereseg7203 thanks Therese! I'll have to put Cathy's Clown on the list too! Yes the Sitka Bird is just beautiful!!
Hey Paulette!! Glad you're onboard with us! I'm in Brampton btw so maybe we've met somewhere along the way. So glad you're enjoying the videos!! Kelly
Can’t tell you how glad am to have stumbled on your awesome channel. I’m pretty sure I know you from somewhere. I knew you were Canadian when your chemin de fer n’était pas complètement massacré. You’re by far the best uke teacher out there.
i messed up on the sledge hammer was using the top string for my up strum instead of bottom string LOL figured that out today. Now have to retrain my brain!
Oh no 😆 just when you were getting it all put together! Good luck!!! You can do it!!
Hi, Kelly very good with the chord melody. An this ANUENUE seems outstanding. Mhhm im a bit skeptical because with the slotted Headstock, i prefer the normal one due to personal experience.
@@pulti thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. I really like this uke - the sound is amazing!
@@fourstringstrummer yes, the sound is amazing. What do you think in comparison to the moonbird?
Rats. Just took “the leap” and bought an Oscar Schmidt based on a video. Haven’t even tried to play an instrument for 40 years. And that was me “strumming up” because I just flipped my brothers garage sale acoustic guitar because I’m lefty. No lessons. Just the Roy Clark boot (❤) and a wicked case of ADD. Now I want to string inverse so that my picking hand is still my dominant as I recognize that’s important on a banjolele and I’d rather re-learn and convert the cords for my right hand and get the picking/strumming correct. Love your style. Subbed.
Banjo Ukes are a blast! You are going to love it!! Check out the banjo ukulele playlist on my channel - there are quite a few videos on there now! Have fun - Kelly
Well done as usual Kelly. Everything so clearly explained and fun
@@antonpas3903 thanks so much Anton! It's an old favourite of mine!
Great tutorial Kelly! Fun song-One of my favourites 😄
@@wandam3295 Hey Wanda! Thanks!! Glad you liked it! 😃
Love this song!! Great strumming tutorial.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@@chirples yay!! Thanks!! 👍 It's such a fun song to play!!
This is a wonderful lesson, Kelly, with an awesome song! I am going to do my best to up my game by following your excellent teaching instructions. Thanks so much for inspiring and motivating us. Great work, Kelly!
@@patriciaplat4663 thanks Patricia! Much appreciated! Have fun!!
Kelly, one could not wish for a better explained pro and con review. A potential buyer will learn a lot and make an informed choice.
@@thereseg7203 thanks Therese! Much appreciated - I always find it interesting to hear the differences of the sounds when they're played one right after the other .
Where can I get the written cords for the banjo ukes
Hi Sandra - chords for banjo ukes are the same as the ones used for regular ukes so any uke chord chart should work out perfectly for you.
Nice to have a comparison of all 3 Kelly. Love how you explained all of them so thoroughly !
@@bonniedavidson936 thanks so much Bonnie! Glad you liked it. I find it interesting to listen to them all side by side so you can really hear the difference.
@@fourstringstrummer I think the Duke is the clear winner here !! But the Ohana isn’t bad. I kind of like the twangy sound too It’s nice you have an option with Ohana to get a concert. I love the case for the Duke. Wow !!!
Thanks!
Thanks Bonnie!! Much appreciated!! 😊
Excellent explanation and overview of these three. They all have their characteristics and all seem to be fine but The Duke definitely has the tone I prefer. Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks Patrick! Glad you enjoyed it!! Kelly
I’d like to have a banjolele but don’t know where to buy one, I want a tenor

Great kelly, thanks so much for being thorough and objective. Appreciate you and your channel 🙂
Thanks Jamie! Glad you enjoyed it!!
As usual well explained. One of the best if not the best ukulele/banjolele channel on youtube. Always interesting and educational lessons. Thanks Kelly
Thanks so much Anton! Always appreciate your comments!!
Thank you! I have one now I need to get on it!
Have fun!!
Well I enjoyed that now to try and strike each string evenly and not get caught up on one which then becomes load. The joys for learning
Glad you enjoyed it Steve!
Listening to you from France. There aren’t so much informations about the banjo-ukulele on the Internet. This is great, it will help me improve my playing. Thank you very much."
I'm glad you enjoed it! We will be doing a live Jam session this week with the Duke Banjo Ukulele. We will be doing a strumming seminar and then a play along session. It's happening on Saturday at 3 pm Eastern time (I think that's 9pm in France?). If you;d like to join in just email me at fourstringtrummer@gmail.com and I'll send you the ZOOM link and the song sheets! Thanks - Kelly
Hello, I just ordered this Mini nova U...thanks for this excellent sound, many talk a lot in their video and don't play enough in demo, plus you play very well. I myself have the same uke in an electro tenor version... real fun, I don't regret this purchase at all, I love it. Best wishes
That's great! I've owned a few of these and am always surprised by the sound. Thanks!! Kelly
I love the way you make challenging things look so simple. Super job!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!!
This is an excellent new explanation of the more advanced strums. Thanks. I had sort of given up on those, but now I’m going to work on it.
Thanks Bonnie - glad this one is working better for you!
Thank You Kelly. You have the knack to breaking things down, and making it a lot easier to practice and learn. How you remember the lyrics beats me. I have to cheat even with the oldies I should know off by heart.
Hey Therese! Thanks - I'm glad it's working for you!! Believe me - sometimes there are a few takes when the words slip away from me!! Kelly
You're so cool "big dog"! Thank you that was great! I want to grow up and play just like you someday! 😉
Hey Karen!! Glad you're enjoying the videos!! Kelly
That was lovely mate.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it! Kelly
As usual another well done tutorial. A teacher who explains clearly the strum patterns for every tutorial. Well done video tutorial. Thanks Kelly
Thanks Anton!! Hopefully you can join us next weekend for our live Jam Session!!
Hey Bob Dylan. One of my favorite singers !! Great choice.
Hey Bonnie! We definitely need to put more Dylan on the channel!
Thanks expecially showing the strums.
No problem Steve! Glad you liked it! Kelly
Love the take away tip… keep your digits separate while learning the double strum! ❤
Great one to sing and play. A big thank you, Kelly.
Hey Mike! An old classic! Hopefully you can join us next weekend for the live Jam session!
Thanks for the awesome lesson. Definitely appreciate your videos.
Glad you like them Lou! Maybe we'll see you next weekend on the Live Jam! Kelly
Great lesson. Thankyou.

Thanks
Thanks SO much!! Much appreciated! Kelly
I just cant get that strumming. Keep breaking in to island strum. Do I have the number of beats wrong?
Hi Steve - have a look at the strumming lesson in this video. This is how the strum works. ruclips.net/video/U1r7aoLjxvA/видео.htmlsi=6Sg0Wab75XqYSNd5 Also if you're available next Saturday at 3pm Eastern we're doing a live jam session and lesson and this will be one of the songs we cover. Just email me at fourstringstrummer@gmail.com and I'll send you the link and info for the jam. Hope that helps! Kelly
❤
I really like the way you approach the ukulele do you teach any other instruments I have others I can’t play😮😮😮
Hi Susan - glad you're enjoying it!! For now it's just ukulele (keeps me pretty busy!). If you're available, join us next Saturday at 3pm Eastern - we're going to do a live event, with lessons and a play along. If you're interested just send me an email at fourstringstrummer@gmail.com and I will send you the link to join us as well as the song sheets! Thanks again - Kelly
❤
Hi Kelly is there any disadvantage of using the index finger instead of the thumb on the last up strum of the double strum . ie. thumb ,index ,index, index. It’s just that I get a clearer ring on the A string that way.
Hi there - nope - if you're u can work it that way and you like the sound then go for it. It will give you a different sound coming up with the finger (fleshy part) versus your thumb (nail) but if you like it that way then it's all good! Enjoy!!
❤
Thanks!!
❤
Glad u liked it!!
brilliant thank you
Glad you liked it! 😁
Finally a well demonstrated video to demonstrate the difference. Well done as usual Kelly
Thanks Anton!! 😁
Super! I've been thinking about a soft upward strum. This helps a lot, Kelly.
Glad you like it Rich! 😁
Nice one Kelly. Loving that ukulele - what a stunner!
Hey Jamie - thanks - yeah it's a beauty!
Thanks!
Thanks SO much Bonnie!! So nice!😊
@@fourstringstrummer. Just a little tip for how much you do for us all !! I appreciate it. And I like just even hearing you sing and play. So nice in this day of over produced songs. Like sitting by a campfire !
A beautiful mellow tune. So calming to play and sing. Thanks, Kelly.
Hi Mike - glad you liked it. It's not a very well known song but it's such a nice one and worked well for this technique. Thanks!
