Apr 20, 2007 - very clear instruction nice! I play a lot in this style on banjo/uke which as you probably know sounds especially cool,with the thin uke G string it produces a sound very close to a 5 string banjo with twice the portability. cheers.

Sep 22, 2007 - thanks Aaron. I've got 3 subscriptions on Youtube and you're one of the 3.I noticed your fingerpicking sounds very bright and clear. Do you have long fingernails on you right hand?

ackeim Says:

Nov 15, 2007 - yes

ackeim Says:

Nov 15, 2007 - Yes, I have long fingernails on my right hand and often wear a thumb pick. I also choose instruments that are lightweight with a bright punchy tone.

ackeim Says:

Nov 15, 2007 - Myself and friend are coming out with a book of old time music for ukulele soon, stay tuned!

Oct 16, 2008 - Thanks a whole lot! I have been practicing clawhammer technique for the past month and I think I have the hang of it! Peep my video response. P.S. I want a Beansprout, but alas I need to scrimp and save first.

hugoestr Says:

Dec 13, 2009 - I think it is standard D because you can see him pressing the first string in the third fret to play C, but I could be mistaken :)

Cleevemire Says:

Jan 8, 2010 - no its tuned GCEA (standard C)
