Four freakin' strings. That ain't right.
Thanks, John. He's got it down. Very cool.

This is the kinda thing that proves it ain't what you got, it's what you do with it.... I'm talking musical gear... of course....

I second that awesome. The next time he does something however, tell him to make sure his fingers don't leave his hands.

Seems like there's a hidden society of monster uke players out there......serious stuff.

What's the big deal? He only has four strings to play!

I'm with David. Anybody can play that on four strings. Just try playing it on twenty, with 8 pedals and 8 knee levers! Now, THAT will be a challenge!
