Happy to see Tahiti is among your destination of discovery ... I was born and raised in Tahiti, when I moved to Hawaii I heard that the Ukulele initially came from Cook Islands. It’s not something I know for sure but it’s not something us Tahitians really care about. We just enjoy dance, music & ukulele.
I look out the window in Scotland this year with the virus 2020 and send love to the beautiful Fiji. I have been to Hawaii but not Fiji. Love to all these wonderful musicians.
Aye well I ken Fiji might be beautiful but is about 2,000 miles from there. I prefer French Polynesia to Hawaii and think it must be better than Fiji too ;o)
I know it''s probably been 6 years since this video was posted but does Terema Toere or Tefa make those ukulele's for resale? I love how he put the holes on the sides for better resonance! WOW!!
Do they have a website? I'd love to have a Tahitian Ukulele with the wholes on the sides as well! Mine is on the back, traditionally and at times it get all muffled because like he said, we play them close to our bodies. Awesome video btw!!!
What kind of fishing line do they use exactly????? I must know! Is it all the same string, or are they different gauges? I make and slap together a lot of weird instruments and that red fishing line SPEAKS TO ME.
When visiting Bora-Bora started playing with a hotel staff. It turned into twice a day jam sessions…Poor guy had to hate me. I wish i purchased one before returning home.
Am I correct in saying that the tuning is not reentrant on this one, unlike the hawai'ian one? Or is the high A dropped by an octave instead of the low C being raised?
First time I saw this instrument and trying it out, I fell in love in its rich and happy sound.

I'm looking to get myself a Tahitian ukulele for birthday.
It's basically an 8 String Banjolele

I notice the strings are very close to the resonating body and there is no distinction between the body and fingerboard in terms of hight.
I think the guy in the middle is related to my great grandad Papa Taumihau.
Bonjour ! Le fabriquant de ukulélé s'il vous plait !
where can I find a good quality one? in New Zealand preferably.
When visiting Bora-Bora started playing with a hotel staff. It turned into twice a day jam sessions…Poor guy had to hate me. I wish i purchased one before returning home.
Whats the name of the song or tune, whats the beat called? etc..
You need to go to Rarotonga
Neh tahiti where its at
@@Washyourbum28 I think the 8 strings came from the cooks bra
@@davidsavelio6492 nah bro, you're Samoan
@@davidsavelio6492 tahitians invented it
@@Washyourbum28 oh ok uce didn't lol but the reason is the cookie go hundies here in NZ and Australia lol

Too good ❤️❤️❤️👍🥰🥰🥰👌🎊
Oh boy the exotic allure
why does that guy in the middle look so damn sad
jzonkel I know! The guy can shred!
Maybe does not speak English so the man explaining should also be speaking in Tahitian then the poor man wouldn’t feel left out. So rude not to
Why doesn't any body play melody on any of those?? Is it illegal??
What's the song Yous played at the end the jam sesh ?
It is tuned like a mandol
Find them here at facebook.com/maneaukes/
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sounds like a charango
Hola quiero aprender a tocar ukelele
Heyyy , what's this song 05:22 please :)
We were jamming on Santana's Europa. Most of the melody here is improvised though :)
Mount I
Don’t tell Dutch
Maybe man in middle doesn’t speak English and that is why he is so quiet.
The Tahitian Uke sounds good as an accompaniment instrument, but by itself, it sounds too clunky in my opinion.
Yeah you might have a point there. They do sound great in a bunch of 3 or 4 and more with voice!
