 Interesting, doesn't a ukulele only have 4 strings? I wonder if he had to tune a certain way to play that song?
Kinda makes me want a ukulele to play around on, a lot easier to carry around and mess with than a full size acoustic, I've looked at them but most were smaller than that guys.

That was pretty amazing.
Paz it does only have 4 strings. I would imagine where he speeds up, in places, its done to cover the missing chords.

Absolutely amazing!!! :o
That's a slightly larger uke than I've ever seen before, but even on a six-string, that'd be some damn good pickin'!
Also sounds really sweet- definitely a well-made instrument.
This kid should be recording!! :)
