Learned so much from this Video. Thanks a lot from Germany❤

[@fourstringstrummer]

Glad you enjoyed it!! Kelly

Can’t tell you how glad am to have stumbled on your awesome channel. I’m pretty sure I know you from somewhere. I knew you were Canadian when your chemin de fer n’était pas complètement massacré. You’re by far the best uke teacher out there.

Great lesson - this is just what I need. I can play many many songs, I do open mics. My strumming styles though are limited and hopefully these additional strums will enhance my performances and entertain my audiences even more. I will be checking out more of your videos. Thank you. 😊

[@fourstringstrummer]

Hey Joe! Glad you liked it! There are lots of different types of strums in the various videos. Enjoy!! Kelly

[@fourstringstrummer]

[@bonniedavidson936]

Another great lesson. You are keeping us on our toes. I am way behind. But I love hearing you play and sing. One of the highlights of my week. Kelly !!!

[@fourstringstrummer]

Thanks so much Bonnie!!

Thank you SO much for breaking down the techniques and bringing it altogether at the end!! I'll be working through this video over and over for a while 😂✌️

[@fourstringstrummer]

Glad you enjoyed it! Have fun!! Kelly

[@fourstringstrummer]

@@putvogel25 "keep smiling, keep strumming and have fun!!" Thanks! Kelly

[@karent.8245]

OMG!!! I am literally crying from your "swampy" throat episode!! My husband asked if I was ok cause I was laughing so hard! Thank you for that!!!

[@fourstringstrummer]

Yaaa... sometimes I say stuff first and think later! Glad you enjoyed it!! 😀 Kelly

[@owenandapril9707]

As a Hawaiian ukulele player I found this an awesome tutorial.

[@fourstringstrummer]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!!

Kelly, that was an excellent assortment of chocolate box styles today. Pushing the envelope I like that. The flick with the finger was a great fit to the song and one I will be practicing. Quite a few Artists have covered Orange Blossom Special. I have a soft spot for Glen Campbell and the Live Performance with Johnny Cash on his Show is well worth a watch if you have not seen it.

[@fourstringstrummer]

Hey Therese! Thanks! Ya I kinda jammed a lot into this one!! Glad you liked it! Kelly

[@marytow4391]

Great lesson-and you’re right- a lot of fun! Thank you!

[@fourstringstrummer]

Thanks Mary!! Kelly

[@ChristineYardley-u7u]

Thanks for another great tutorial! I will be practicing while watching Netflix 😅 I’ve improved so much practicing this way, as I find I’m more relaxed when my focus is devided .

[@fourstringstrummer]

Thanks Christine!! Hopefully the rest of the family doesn't mind !! 😜

[@ChristineYardley-u7u]

Well there’s only me so no worries there 😂I can play to my hearts content 😌@@fourstringstrummer

[@truecrimewithglenclark9098]

cheers , ive been looking for some bluegrass tutorials, my ultimate goal is playing preacher and the bear by billy strings with some licks aswell.

[@fourstringstrummer]

Glad you liked it! I'll have to look that song up. Billy Strings - that boy can play!! Kelly

[@fourstringstrummer]

@@truecrimewithglenclark9098 did you see "The Preacher and the Bear" Tutorial I did recently? It's a fun one!!

[@randywalker1925]

Thank you Kelly that was an awesome lesson I'm assuming you can do the same thing on a banjolele😊😊😊

[@randywalker1925]

I really dig the price tag hanging from the headstock it reminds me of Minnie pearls hat😂😂😂❤😊

[@fourstringstrummer]

Absolutely - that strum/those techniques work the same on banjo uke. Check out the banjo uke playlist and you'll see lots of content like that. Thanks Randy!! Kelly

[@fourstringstrummer]

@@randywalker1925 maybe I should start the videos with a big HOWDYYYY!! 🤣

[@banjo-dx6mz]

Loving the strumming 😊. The time has come to buy a uke. Any suggestions on what type for beginners. Gonna put my banjo a side for a while.❤

[@fourstringstrummer]

LOTS of good options out there. I've really been enjoying the TK-14 Tenor from Ohana - it's one of their lower end instruments but the sound is great, they look really good and they are priced right! If you're looking for something more upscale I also like the Ohana TK-35G which is all solid wood with a high gloss finish. It sounds fabulous and looks gorgeous! If you're thinking about something a bit different the Pineapple Concert - also all solid wood is a nice mid-priced option. Mahogany with high gloss. I did a video recently where I highlighted that uke.

[@banjo-dx6mz]

@@fourstringstrummer I've just bought one from eBay used .....no idea if it's what I need🤔

[@fourstringstrummer]

@@banjo-dx6mz cool! Which one did you get??!
