    Learning this was transformational for me. I notice you rest your thumb on the string lower than you play, and pick with fingers 2 and 3. Very cool.

    I tend to use my chording hand to hold up my ukulele which involves mostly using my thumb or palm to holdup the ukulele up as I move down or up the neck. I'm not entirely sure how to utilize my chording hand properly, but I am noticing that the chording hand is not supposed to use any effort to hold up the ukulele at all to help you play, so how do you keep the ukulele up as you play?

  • @alwayslookingatself
    @alwayslookingatself Год назад

    Another way to the 1-2-3-4 pattern, keep your fingers on the fretboard as you move the 1 finger to the next string. The point of this exercise is to keep your fingers close to the fret board the whole time

      Playing fast has nothing to do with this exercise. The 1234 exercise is mainly used to improve your left hand position and control.

      I think because the top string is not a low G string. It would not sound good when you move downwards to the bottom strings
