Did anyone receive the notification where I accidentally wrote “Ukukeke” instead of Ukulele? 😂😂😂😂😂 Darn Thumbs!
Hey! Got one thumbs up thus far, so one person caught it :).
I caught it! Haha
Yep and I thought it was another word for the banjolele that I didn't know😂
Hahahah!!! So funny!
Oh boy! So funny!
what a welcoming community, stopped by to listen to a banjolele being played but will be sticking around
As a ukulele player that loves Folk music, I want a banjolele so bad. These are great! Thank you!
Awww so cool Bryan 😀. I’m so happy you liked them. Love you!
Thanks Bryan, glad you like it so much. Good luck for the Giveaway (Jamie)
I love this! I have a banjolele and am always looking for new banjo-y ways to play it. I would welcome any other banjolele tutorials you want to make before your uke goes to the winner :)
You ready my mind! I have some banjolele songs and tutorials ready for you, so keep your eyes pealed for the next few weeks.
This reminds me of the early 80's when I was playing bluegrass on my guitar. Those were some fun days.
Shawn McDowell That’s Awesome! What was on your set list?
@@OneMusicSchool the old classic bluegrass songs like cripple creek, careless love, mountain dew, etc. I found flat picking very easy to do.
I would love to hear you play some of those tunes.
2 things, I found my great grandfathers banjolele and had it restrung and tuned today and I'm excited to start learning to play, and last, I love that you're a lefty!

Very cool Katie. I have been playing these stringed instruments for over 50 years and it always thrills me when you show me something I have never done before. Thanks dearly!
Wow Bill! That is incredibly encouraging! Thank you so much for telling that. It made my day. I always find it very encouraging when someone finds a video useful, and I'm so grateful for you :). Have an awesome day!
Hi Katie, you have done more banjolele tutorials...this is really great! I love bluegrass 😍. Thank you for helping us to play great things on the Ukulele! Best wishes from Steffi (Germany) again.
I don’t own a banjolele but I still enjoyed the video good job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oh thank you! I hope you try these in your regular ukulele. They still sound cool 😎
Oh what a great giveaway and tutorial. I've been wanting a banjolele so bad. Thank you for giving away something so unique, it is very generous of you! ❤❤❤❤❤
Woohoo! Best wishes to you!
Thank you for this uke lesson, I've been learning rolls on the banjo and guitar, it's great to try new idea's for my uke.
Great lesson! Concise coaching and very well explained. Will definitely subscribe.
This video convinced me I should buy my sister’s banjolele and learn a new instrument...My fingers are sore but I’m having lots of fun so thank you!
A super lesson, Katie. I love the sound of the banjolele. A big thank you.
Thank you so much for being here, Mike!
My banjolele is arriving tomorrow and im so excited! Just subscribed so I can come back and learn! :-)
This is awesome! I'm going to practice on my ukulele for now, but look forward to getting a banjolele in the future.
My current skill level is a bit past this guide, but I watched the whole video anyway. I'm subscribing for your wonderful vibe and attitude!
excited to find your channel today!!
Exceptional teaching. Inspirational, educational, professional expertise. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts and talents with the world. You are definitely making the world a better place with your wonderful videos. Mucho Gracias
Awww! Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it!
Good morning, Ms. Katie, I love waking up on Saturday to see what my my "present under the tree is" from you! Not a banjo or Bluegrass kinda girl, but I always appreciate learning different skills and techniques! I t makes for a well-rounded musician.. Besides, by the end of the tutorial, that cute little thing had grown on me...and much to my husband's dismay, I wanted one! BTW.... love the metrenome. Hugs from Houston!❤
HAHHAHA!!! I know what you mean! "But this one's different.." has been the key phrase that I've used, and it still hasn't worked. So funny. I'm so glad that you gave it a listen even if it initially wasn't something that you thought you might enjoy. I really appreciate it. Thanks for being here.
That's awesome Linda! LOL (Jamie)
oh my goodness, looking forward to watching this later--I have been wanting a banjolele for a little while, too...I bet this feeds the flame a little... ;-)
You're awesome, Katie. I hadn't picked up my ukulele in awhile... got this notification and you've got me excited about learning these techniques 😎
That means so much to me. Thank you for watching and for taking a one out of your day to leave me an encouraging comment. Happy that you’re inspired to play again.
You are fabulous and I will be back for sure. following now. Order a Banjolele TODAY! Thanks so much.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you 😀.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful musical gifts, talents and fabulous teaching. So helpful, inspirational. Mucho Gracias
.
Wow, thank you!
Thanks Miss Katie, I am going to have fun with my ukulele now. Thanks so much much much and love u much much much❤️💚💛💜💙
And much much much love back to you! It’s so good to see you again 😀.
Thanks for teaching me...this really helped me out alot!
You’re a great teacher!!
Great lesson, your a great teacher. Thank you
Wow, beauty just radiates out of this woman AND this is one of the best and easiest to follow tutorials I've seen on youtube to date.
These sound so cool! Love the sound of it❤️
I'm so glad that you liked them! I hope it brings you smiles while practicing.
These finger rolls sound great on my ukulele. On the Duke10 Banjolele it has that extra special tone, the notes sound fun and lively, it's a perky Happy instrument. Thanks for the new exercises, smiling learnings.
(Lol, funny bloopers, I was looking for the uke strap when you said that, hahahah) Happy days of Love 💚😘💚
Hahahaha!!! So happy that you liked this and that the bloopers made you smile😀😀😀😀. It really is fun and unique without being intimidating.
Super video! Here is an ending similar to shave and a haircut: play 3rd string open, then pluck 2nd fret and hammer on to the third and then fourth fret. Then open 4th string, open 1st string, open 4th and finally 3 fret on the 1st string. In bluegrass it's called the g run. For ukulele we can call it the c run.
Awesome insights!!! Thank you so much 😀.
Cool... runnings 😎😁
Hahahah
Great video thank you, im just starting out and this will really help 👍.
I’m so excited to see this!!! Thanks so much!!!
Yeah Mark! I’m excited that your excited. So happy that this is what you wanted to see.
Bravissima musicista!!!! Donna molto affascinante!! Complimenti! Thank you and best regards from Rome
Thank you so much!!!!
I play ukulele, I’m not great, I’ve got a kmise banjolele being delivered next week, I’ll have to restring it for left handed, I’m sure I’ll be using this very helpful video, thank you x
Great video. The tabs and metronome are very helpful. Thank you
So glad this helped! Thanks for watching.
This was a lot of fun to fool around with!
So happy you had fun with this 😀😀😀.
Thanks very much love this lesson x
Thank you so much for this! You're an angel
Sounds beautiful. Just like a 5 string banjo
Would love to see more banjolele videos!
I love your videos!
LOVE YOU!!!!!
Great video! Thanks a lot!!!
Thanks for being here. I really appreciate it.
Awesome 👌
I highly recommend anybody interested in any single instrument, always try to learn other parallel instruments. I think it helps learn the concepts by comparison. Especially good if the two instruments are tuned differently.
Great little lesson, thank you! It would be nice to know at what speed you had your metronome set at?
Thank you so much for making this video!! It's very easy to follow along with and reminds me of actual in-person music lessons! I recently got a banjolele, but I've been playing the uke for a few years now. Learning riffs and fingerpicking has always been so daunting for me and I've never really known where to begin. This video really helps me understand it better and find it more enjoyable than intimidating. 💕
Hi Kate, can you please do a tutorial on yankee doodle on the banjolele, the deliverance version
Wow this is super crazy, I’ve been looking into Banjoleles for the past week now! I have a Bondi Uke, but I was thinking about wanting a new sound. Maybe I’ll get lucky in this giveaway!
Good luck for the draw Blaise! :-) (Jamie)
So excited!!! Thanks for entering!
Thanks❤
Apart from your very helpful videos you are also so charming! (Mr Smarmy)
So fun!!
Yeah! I’m glad you liked it.
Thank u, my friend and I want to start a little band playing blues and rockabilly with old school hillbilly instruments, do you know if there's any way to to tune the banjo so that it sound creepy/ distorted?
Love this. 🙌✝️🙏❤️
Great exercises to do on any stringed instrument......This teaches good coordination and timing........Using a metronome is essential......Thank you, Katie, for all you do.......BTW, thanks for reminding me, that I do need a shave and a haircut.......I think I can use the metronome for that too....:).......shhhh...your strap is showing.....:)
Hahahahah!!!!! Greg, you light up my life!!! Yes, please use your metronome. I had a student say that she used her Metrodome to help her keep time, and I said that it must have been a long drive to Minnesota to use their facilities to practice 😂.
LOL
It’s one of my favorite stories.
very nice
Wish me luck. I'm left handed and decided to give the banjo a go right.
Oh my - going to need lots of practice at the faster speed forward and backward rolls - my fingers are getting stuck 😂
This stuff is amazing! If someday you make a course about this I'll pay for it!
Thank you so much! That is so incredibly encouraging. I hope you have a great day.
Hye, can you tell me what bpm you were using when slow and when speeded up? Thanks
Hi Katie great video. Just wanted ask why are we plucking only 3 strings?
Little bit of West Africa, Southern US, Hawaii and Portugal all in that little hybrid instrument.
Such a cool Uke! I only have 1 true Uke, so it'll be awesome if I manage to win one, best of luck to others too!
It really is cool! I've been having a blast with it.
Thanks :-) Glad you like it - Jamie, Owner, DUKE Banjo Ukuleles
Oh, unexpected and beautiful video. I love bluegrass.
Don't own a banjo, yet tho ; )
Thanks for watching! I hope you try it in your uke 😀.
@@OneMusicSchool thanks Katie ❤
😀😀😀😀😀
What is speed of metronome?
I want IT !!!😍
Haha! Did you enter the Giveaway Cassie?
Duke Banjo Ukuleles No 😱
Not yet!!!😬
How come you play F chord with only one finger on the back roll?
I thought forward rolls start with string 1 and reverse rolls on the 4th or 3th strings ...just the reverse.
How much does an instrument like that cost?
I didn’t really know bluegrass ukulele was a thing, I play the mandolin, my bf is learning the banjo and I got my niece a cheap ukulele cause she loves playing with my mandolin so aye maybe she’ll want to do some bluegrass with me and my bf one day
Love
Thanks for the love!
i have a bajolele but its an old 8 stringer
Hi, I'm Tim from Alaska, I play a Left handed Banjo. I was wondering if I can take a Banjolele, reverse the strings and play it left handed? Thank you.
I don't know why you couldn't... I, too, am left handed - and that is what I've done with my soprano ukulele - reverse the strings. I purchased my concert and banjolele as left-handed instruments with the only difference being the little markings on the side of the fret board. A little nail polish can take care of that!
Magnífica clase, gracias. Más clases, please
Gracias por ver! Mi canal turned mad que 300 videos de tutorials gratis is quisiera ver mas 😀.
What kind of banjolele is that I really like it
Thanks for watching. It’s a Duke 10, bid sadly they went out of business.
What am I supposed to do with my pinky? I feel like I need to push it down on the sound board to anchor, but your pinky is curled up and relaxed.
I'm playing on a normal uke, I wonder if that's the problem. Looks like you rest your forearm on the edge of your bajolele. Is that your anchor point?
Hi and thanks for watching. Yes, my forearm resting in the armrest would be my anchor point. I’m coming out with a video soon about fingerpicking technique, and I mention that you can place your pinky on the ukulele to anchor your hand if you’d like. It helps a lot. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don’t. It all depends upon the pattern for me. I hope that helps.
Yes!!! I got the ukulele string i ordered online today. Ive changed my string. Can you please teach me how to find the chords of a song? I learned ukulele for 5 months now. Im asking you this because you are the best uku teacher to me. Thanks...
That’s great news! What do you mean find the chords to a song? Can you clarify?
I mean "how to know the chord progressions in a song.."
I can see if you dont understand what i mean. I m from india and not american so my english is not that understandable. I study in a village school. So😥😥😥
That would be a good series of videos to make. It would take more than one video to explain the music theory behind it. It would take some practicing, but it can be done.
No, your English is great :). I just needed to know what chords to what songs. You explained yourself very well when you asked how to figure out a song just by listening to it.
Speaking of bluegrass (!), I’d really love to play John Conlee’s « Rose colored glasses » on my ukulele, but I can’t find any tutorial!! Pleaaase help! 😍
Thanks for watching and thanks for the suggestion :).
One Music School I love this particular remake:
ruclips.net/video/RbF_0JQFRQI/видео.html
Find the sheet music and transpose the cords to what ever key you'll sing it in...that's all it is to it. Rose colored glasses is more of a country music tune but in the video it is a bluegrass group playing a country song.
I looked at the guitar player cords as he played. He was playing G, C, and D cords but he was capoed at the third fret. That made him playing and singing the song in the key of B flat. I hope that helps you. Just transpose those cords to the key that matches your vocal range. In B flat with no capo just start off on B flat cord then change to the 4 cord then back to the 1 cord at the cord change and the next cord change will be to the 5 cord. If I was playing rose colored glasses and singing along I would strum slowly in 3/4 time to match my singing. Have fun.
Thank you so much! I've only been playing for a year, and although I sometimes surprise myself, I admit that I have a lot of difficulty finding just by ear or by observing ... and even by transposing, I succeeded a few times but not often . I'm a beginner, that's all! 🤪 But I think your comment will help me! 😃
🙌🏼💐
What size is your instrument? I want to get one but can’t find any info about size.
This one is a tenor :).
@@OneMusicSchool Thank you, I couldn’t find tenor size only concert. Are they still making tenor size?
I love this, but still didn't understand how this hammer thing works...
Try plucking an open string and then sharply strike the string with one of your fingers onto the space between the frets (try 3rd fret just to practice). It’s making a sound without plucking g the string with your right hand. I hope that makes sense.
That’s awesome! I love bluegrass! ❤️ I’m gonna try that on my regular uke.
Do you know if the giveaway is international? I’m from Poland and would love to have a chance to win. It’s such a cool instrument!
Yes! The giveaway is international :). This company is from New Zealand. Happy plucking :).
We would love you to win - Never sent a DUKE10 Banjolele to Poland :-)
@@DukeBanjoUkuleles hi Jamie!
I'm just wondering if you will ever do another run of Duke banjoleles?
Thank you so much for this. I have been looking for just this type of video for a long time. There just doesn’t seem to be very many resources for banjolele. Love that banjolele you are playing. Is it a concert scale?
tenor
Thanks :-) As Ricky says the DUKE10 Banjolele has a tenor scale fingerboard
Thanks for answering!
at first I heard chi-po-tle instead of triplet 😆
😂😂😂😂😂This made me smile!
What kind of banjolele are you using
Hi Bruce - it is our DUKE10 Tenor Banjolele. Check out the link in the description under the video. And if you are feeling lucky, enter the draw and you might win one in Katie's giveaway! - Jamie - Owner, DUKE Banjo Ukuleles
why do you never pick the g string?
Good question. Because the G string is only a whole step away from the A string, it sounds a little strange to the ear. Usually, the ear wants to hear the lowest note in chord. If you had a low g, it would snake a little more sense to the ear. I hope that makes sense.
@@OneMusicSchool So when picking the banjolele, I shouldn't try to do a 2314 pattern? That makes life easier!
UkuleleAngela .....I frail it with some tunes, make the chord, pluck a note or however many fit that chord, strum down with the fingernails, pluck the G string as you go by. It is actually the Pete Seeger 5 string style. Short a low G because of the tuning. Not unlike clawhammer, but pluck up, then you are up to brush down and thumb. The thumb rides the G string.
One Music School ...I've tried low G, then it doesn't sound like a uke, or a banjo! Restricted if any notes below C in the tune. Frailing is quite addictive once you "get it".
Lemme pick your g string. 😜
And just like that, I can do hammer-downs and pull-offs....KATIE-GIRL! Thank you, love!!!! =-)
Yes!!!!! So excited for you and that this helped you!!!!! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
💃🙆💃🙆💃
"ugallllee"
🎼🎼👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sounds a little bit like Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven?
Beethoven and the banjolele... not a bad combination 😀. Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate it.
I love you lady. I wish I could hug you
chev ro let chev ro let chev ro let
Cute!
I love banjoleles. I want buy one but my dad doesn't buy😭
Ecem Çetinkaya It’s really cute, right?
@@OneMusicSchool Yessss.I do everything for i have a banjolele😂
I know what you mean. I had to save for everything I wanted to buy when I was a kid. Nothing has changed, but starting early really taught me how to manage my money.
There is one worth 67 dollars/euros in amazon
Winner of a video, I've been looking for "ukulele lessons for beginners online free" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fenaylern Nonpareil Formula - (do a search on google ) ? It is an awesome one of a kind product for discovering how to play the ukulele like a pro without the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got amazing results with it.
if you can play it slow you can play it quickly you have been doing the ling ling workout i see.
Hmmmm...what’s the link king excise?
