‘Ukulele Techniques
Learning techniques on the ‘ukulele is one of the most important aspects of playing. You can know all of the notes in the world, but if you don’t know any techniques you will be very limited in what you can do. It would be like trying to build a house without nails. It should be noted though that overdoing some techniques can be seen as showing off or being flashy – nobody appreciates that.
Arm Wah – A poor man’s modulation effect
Bending – Learn how to stretch your strings to the max
Harmonics – The chime effect that makes the ‘ukulele ring like bells
Octaves – One note from this octave and one note from that octave
Pull-offs Up and Down One String
Unisons – Two notes are better than one!
