Hi Live Ukulele.com, Thank you for taking the time to feature
Lloyd NakanoHi Live Ukulele.com,
Thank you for taking the time to feature your free tabs. Looks like hard work.
I know I won’t understand all the musical stuff above the tabs.
After awhile, they begin to look like erect bean sprouts, some alone and some with pals hanging together, not to mention the squiggly worms every now and again. The big looking ‘S’ at the beginning must stand for Super.
I have an Ohana tenor Ukulele. I am at the point where I can barely spell Ukulele, without looking. Perhaps, someday I could make folks IZ, Herb Ota-Jr, Jake Shimabukuro, Brittany, and Live Ukulele.com, proud that I can sound fairly good using your tabs and without much musical background. At best, I will be able to entertain myself by playing the music I love.
Thank you, Warmest and Best Regards,
Lloyd
Hello Live Ukulele, You truly are wonderful people. I am in
KieranHello Live Ukulele,
You truly are wonderful people. I am in Ireland where Ukes are only becoming popular so there ’s not much in the line of tuition or help for a lonely Uke learner like myself. You really help greatly. I got the tabs for Brittni’s ‘Glass ball slack key’, but they seen to be different from the album or the live performance. The difference is around the 6th line on the tabs sheet where the line begins with a bar chord on the 7th fret, In her performance she starts this line on the 1st or 2nd fret,(hope I’m making sense!) or else I am reading it wrong. Anything that you can advise on would be much appreciated.
PS. I just received delivery of a Moore Bettah Tenor uke. It really is something special with a beautiful sound. Highly recommended!!
The very best to you all.
Kieran
thankyou great tabs
louisethankyou great tabs
Wow, You guys realy got some awsome tabs on here.
BassmasterWow,
You guys realy got some awsome tabs on here. I like the fact that you have Hawaiian songs along with more mainstream songs; so there’s kind of something for everyone. It’s also cool that you guys have the star wars theme, I think thats great.
Keep up the good work!
Bassmaster
Herb Ohta Jr's Europa is nice but I just can't
Herb TanimotoHerb Ohta Jr’s Europa is nice but I just can’t seem to get Brittni Paiva’s beautiful solo arrangement out of my mind - just have to find a way to play it. She hasn’t published any tab arrangements yet, so wondering if anyone else out there has tried to work it out. Hours I’ve spend studying her video has met with only partial success.
I would ask Dominator about that, he does a lot
liveukuleleI would ask Dominator about that, he does a lot of alternate tab versions.
Keep in mind that Brittni has done her own thing with that song. Try doing a Herb Tanimoto version!
Check out these videos, same song different interpretation.
