I think on the finger picking it’s the 3rd string open right? You say second string open, but play the third? Thank you tho, I just found you and I learned the basics of the song in 10 minutes - you are a great teacher!

Anybody watching this, you should know that the key of C is not the key of the song. If you are playing along and you are wondering why it doesn't sound right it is because Vance plays it in the key of C#. Just a little bit of clarity if you are confused. The only problem is with C# you need all barre chords. If you want to learn it in the same key as Vance check us out, if you are cool with it not sounding like the recording this is an excellent video that break down a nice simple version.

How do you change from Am to G so quickly and easily? The transition feels uncomfortable/awkward for me
@ladynimue89 жыл бұрын
yes, I have a hard time to..I am guessing it gets easier as we practice

+Vanessa Rodriguez I learned the song within 2 days. It was easier for me to play Am with my index finger. Therefore I could make the transition from Am to G a lot faster and more comfortably

+AweDelta when I play G I just bar the bottom 3 strings on the 2nd fret with my index finger and I put my middle finger on the 3rd fret of the 2nd string. this makes the transition from A to G much easier and since F isn't used in this song you can use your index finger to make it even easier.

Hes a very good and thorough teacher, he makes it very simple and easy. But the main riff of this song are not Am G and C (these chords only apply for this song if you are playing it on a guitar). The real riff is D C F. If you try it, it will sound exactly like vance

There's a shallower learning curve than the guitar, once you start learning you can play some tunes within just a few minutes, but it's still an instrument, and it's plenty challenging to get good at it, just like any instrument (apart from like the kazoo or something) It shouldn't be too difficult to transition to it from a guitar though, although if you're used to using a pick, getting used to strumming without one could be challenging, since you don't really use a pick with a uke

@super8films669 жыл бұрын
Try sliding your middle finger from Am down to the 0200. And while you're playing Am, keep your index finger ready to move to 0002, and your fourth finger to 0030. Hopefully this will help!
@DanceVideo4119 жыл бұрын
The best way to learn how to go from Am to G is to just practice playing Am and then going to G. Just practice strumming A once and then G once and just go back and forth until it becomes natural :) Hope that helps

Your videos are super helpful but I find once I get the cords I find myself searching the song so I can play along with it. It would be helpful to be able to play along with you because the actual song is to fast and its annoying trying to search the song and then coming back to this video. I guess all im saying is all you need is a recap of what we learned all put together! :) thank you!

It's pretty simple. On the third (C) string, keep your index finger on the second fret for the whole plucky bit. Pluck the C string once while it's fretted, and then right after while its still kinda ringing, you smack your ring finger onto the fourth fret of the same string (If you don't know how to hammer-on, you might want to look it up since I'm definitely not doing a good job explaining it) After that, pluck the second (E) string and then use your middle finger (because your index and ring finger should still be where they were) to hammer onto the third fret of the same string. Then remove your middle and ring fingers and pluck the C string again, and then an open E string. Just do that whole thing a few times :P

@1LinkEdits10 жыл бұрын
I know this is like a month later comment, but it's all about practising the instrument part. You try to focus on the strumming, and the singing at the same time. You just need to practise that strumming pattern so much that you don't even need to think twice before singing. Try this from scratch: 1. Practise that strumming pattern 2. Then when you don't have too much trouble the strumming pattern, practise switching chords while keeping the strumming pattern at the same pace. 3. When you're comfortable with that, play it along with the song a couple times 4. Hum with the song as you play it 5. Hum without the song as you play it 6. By then, you should have the strumming pattern glued to your head. 7. Try singing. Obviously this isn't going to happen in the space of a day. It took me at least a week to practise Riptide. Also, this pretty much helps with any song
