I then discovered the massive Ukulele community right here on KZbin and discovered how much easier and more fun it is to learn to play prior to learning the guitar. I can say with total confidence that it is because of Jake Shimabukuro and videos like this one that he made that inspired all the ukulele teachers I now study with online and I am very grateful for Jake Shimabukuro for being the incredible talent he is and for promoting the Ukulele to mainstream status and elevating its image so that I could proudly play the baritone Uke today.

Austin Antosh "US uke players"? Uhh…No. He makes HIMSELF look good cause he's got talent and works very hard. YOU, on the other hand, just made yourself seem like a bit of a conceded ass. Let us know when you're performing on TED. I'm sure it'll be happening real soon!
