    Hi Kelly
    Just to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (or I suppose that has to be 'Happy Holidays' in your part of the world)
    Many thanks for your videos and info through 2022.

    I prefer Hawaiian music on banjo uke. It enhances that soprano ukulele sound for me that I always loved.

      Hey again Lucy - you mentioned you liked Gordon Lightfoot - what are some tunes of his you like? I'll see if I can put a video together on one of your favourites if you like.

      @@fourstringstrummer Ah yes. Love that kind offer. I recently went back to listen to your rendition of “Early Morning Rain,” which is one of the best. I can’t resist a song about travel. Or I guess that one is about being stuck and wanting to travel. Anyway, anything would be appreciated. I particularly like Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Or If you could read my mind. But your choice, really.

    Wow, you make it look so easy.... Going to take me a while to get the strum consistent. My only issue is I sing it in Key of G.... I'm trying to figure out the chords in G but getting stuck on some. Any chance you could help me out on what they are? Love your channel!

    • @KI7GWM
      @KI7GWM Год назад +1

      To play this in the key of G, C = G, F= C, G7 = D7, Am = Em G = D, Bb= F#dim

    The Goldtone sounds much louder than the Aklot while the latter makes your voice stand out better.
    What do you think?
    By all opinions, the Goldtone has a good reputation.
    Given this observation, I'm not sure which one I would choose.

      I imagine you are in the same doubt as me trying to find the perfect banjolele for a reasonable price...for me from European Union. Did you buy any of them. I tried Aklot and returned it because it was too heavy and louder. Maybe the Firefly deserves a try...¿?

    • @craftlover9702
      @craftlover9702 Год назад

      I have both! I like the Aklot for the bluegrass sound and the Goldtone I play tunes like Ain't She Sweet, Baby Face, etc. I think the Goldtone works well for a lot of the rag time style.

    I'm wondering if you can tune the banjolele to GDAE or same as fiddle and mandolin .

    • @fourstringstrummer
      @fourstringstrummer  9 месяцев назад

      You probably could if you switched the first two strings around. GCEA is normal tuning for uke. The C could be tuned up to D.

    Where can I get the written cords for the banjo ukes

    • @fourstringstrummer
      @fourstringstrummer  16 дней назад

      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.
