Steem is no longer decentralised and may steal your funds. Use Hive instead.

sounds fun and to see you get musical instruments with Steem all the better.

I hope to be able to buy all the gear I've been wanting for a while. Can't always justify it from the household budget

a baritone ukulele? this exists? me need, fast. i have pretty big hands and long fingers, maybe i can finally place them all on the fretboard of a baritone ukulele...

It was only slightly shorter scale than a guitar, so easy to adapt to. They are fairly cheap, so worth a try.

Which Queen song were you playing? Do you sing along, Freddy Mercury style?

It was Good Company as sung by Brian. The recording doesn't have Freddie on it

Baritone uke can be weird... it's not high enough to sound like a ukulele, but it's still really twangy and kinda small. I had one for a while, then again mine wasn't so nice, maybe a better one would get more excited.

Smaller ukes are cool though. Concert size is probably the perfect choice.

This one was fun, but just felt odd. Kind of like a toy guitar. It's a different tone that could have uses

I'm a fan of queen i look forward to hearing your rendition one day @steevc

This song needs some practice. I'd only played it once before last night

I took guitar lessons in school i wish i carried on doing it now

Ukulele is easier than guitar. You can learn a few chords and play lots of songs. You can start with a cheap uke. Probably lots around as some people will give up.

Some year ago I went to a ukulele's concert, 10 or 15 (I don't remember) players of ukulele! Fantastic!

There's at least one ukulele orchestra touring here. I've yet to see them play live

wonderful!!! I searched the Orchestra that I watched, 7 ukulele and 1 guitar, their name is Sinfonico Honolulu ^_^

Oh, I was hoping for a clip! :)

Sorry. I don't tend to record stuff at the sessions, but I may record some audio when I collaborate with others some time.

Fair enough! :) Thank you.

never tried to play one of those :)

You should try one. It's a lot of fun

I'll try when I find a ukelele I can play :)

Some glimpse would have been nice

Glimpse of what? I showed the instruments :) Didn't have time for lots of photos

glimpse of you playing buddy

but it is ok

i get it

I'll do some more Uke videos and time. Here's an old one

one man and his guitar. makes life better

One man and many guitars = happiness :)

It is cool Buddy

Appreciate it !!

Ukelele is like a venezuelan cuatro!
