The Independent is correct in saying that he is "one of the most influential guitar teachers in history."
Caleb Buist agreed. I am still playing ten years later thanks to him.
It was nice of them to say... but I find all that stuff a bit embarrassing! :)
Definitely the best around, only started at Christmas and already started learning some AC/DC all because of Justin 👍
JustinGuitar you’re humble, Justin, but you make the world a better place.
@@justinguitar Yeah, that makes sense.
My mum is 87 and during lockdown I gave her a ukulele to ‘play about with’ and this video to learn. She now knows how to play quite a few tunes. And sends her thanks 🙏 x
The kind of wholesomeness we need in 2020
Music with kids is an awesome thing when in lockdown!! I just wish I'd been able to get all this course done sooner (more songs and stuff on the website!).
Lindsay so true, stay safe 😺
Imagine this guy teaching you music from childhood. You're gonna be a music legend by the time you're 18. XD
@anglovirtual a guitarist is like a singer, a good one can sing (play) anything, they just choose whichever genre they like and stick with it. Justin is amazing at teaching foundational stuff, which develops a guitarist that can play anything he/she chooses.
💯💯💯
Many years ago I taught my daughter recorder by learning myself the music theory and playing the notes the day before we done it together. I'm now encouraged to do the same with my granddaughter and the ukc. Thank you for creating and sharing this wonderful video.
I'm getting a ukulele now. I followed your gutiar tutorial, wrote notes about chords and i think I'm advanced enough to teach someone the basics. Thank you, never stop
This is so awesome, Justin! My kids have been watching me learn guitar through your site and app, and have shown an interest in learning an instrument. They would love this video. Been planning on getting them an uke!
Get one for you - one for them - and learn WITH them :) they'll love it!
@@justinguitar That's a great idea! Thanks for all you do! Best learning course I've found.
love it!! thank you so much!!
i just looked at another one of your videos and figured out so much
I have to thank you for all the high quality instructional uploads. They're literally the best on UA-cam. I can't buy you a beer or shake your hand but I'm getting a t-shirt. Thanks for all you do.
Hi Justin, I bought both my boys uke's when they were born. They're 5 and 6 now and have finally started showing an interest. This is going to really help mate. I've personally been playing over 30 years and still use your videos for guidance, keep up the good work dude.
ur welcome!! They'll love it - try to find songs they like - tv shows anything to grab their attention! :) good luck!
Just bought a beautiful ukulele here in Hawaii. Thank you for your wonderful teaching especially during the time of covid 19! Stay safe
Loved this helpful & engaging video! So many great points! Thanks so much!
Justin youre the greatest
Thanks for your work🧡
Great video! Thank you, Justin!
Thank you for that lesson. I finally get the strumming now. I may not be a child, I am 58. A long time ago (30 odd years) I cut the tendon in my left ring finger which means I can not move the top part of that finger. To top it off I had a stroke 2 years back with some loss of motor skill in my left hand. The doctor suggested doing hand and finger exercises or playing an instrument. Started with a keyboard but that did not appeal to me. Then I saw Jake Shimabukuro and The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain and knew which instrument I wanted to learn. In past 3 months I mastered the cords mentioned, and then some. That is easy enough already, even the transitions. It is/was the strumming I struggling with. This video made it so easy. Hopefully I can get my 9 year old daughter on board agail. Thanks again.
~Have been following you for a long time & love the way you teach us. I'm an old girl but will never give up playing my uk's
Great Job Justin! Thank you!!
Beautiful lesson Justin, just beautiful!!! Thanks!
Your guitar videos taught me how to play so I might use these now for the Uke.
Try it - such a fun instrument!
I get a lot of my guitar playing tips from Justin. And after watching to the end of this video, most of my parenting tips too! My son has a Yamaha Guitalele (ukulele-sized 6-string guitar tuned to ADGCEA, like a guitar with a capo on the 5th fret) and now I really want to play some nursery rhymes on it. Well done, mate.
Great tip for the kids songs and keeping them engaged! thank you!
Did this with my granddaughter-- so good and easy. She loved it. Ordering your book.
Great lesson on Uke! I’ve always loved your guitar lessons and I love this too!
Sooper Helpful !! Thanks a Lot, I got inspired and started playing Ukelele today... Enjoying a lot because of you 👍👍👏👏😄😊😊🙏🙏
So true the uke is a blast with my grandkids. Thanks for the tips. And I like to play it myself instead of guitar sometimes.
Love it ! This lesson is so sweet :)
Love u Justin keep doing your thing!!
Thanks! :)
Such great idea my grandchild she would love it , thank you for this Justin 👍
Yay!! This video is exactly what I needed right now.
amazing as usuasl
thank you justin!
thanks so much!
nice, thank you so much
Loved it a lot!
My son is going to love this. Thanks man!
great for beginners
I'm a beginner guitar learner..and whatever I know about the guitar playing I owe it to him...I even leanrt how to hold the guitar and plectrum properly from his videos 😊....
MUST TUNE IN AGAIN,LEARNT ALOT. THANK YOU.
Thanks Justin, came over here after reading your email. Ukulele is a great way to introduce music to your kids and to play with them, just never thought of it as a primary guitar player. Look forward to the experience when mine is a bit bigger to do this with :) but might as well buy a uke now and your ebook so I can start practicing those children’s songs lol
Had a ukulele for a while but not played it,definitely going to try now,my granddaughter wants to learn so here goes.
have fun!
Lovely idea!!
Justin makes the world a better place
Perfect timing!
My kids are stunned 🤩
Thank you great lesson
You are my guitar guru! Really making great progress along with your website!!
Great video, I've got a couple of Ukuleles kicking around. They sound pretty good when you tune them up haha
Thank you Justin! My nephew has a ukulele, he doesn't play, I guess. But I'm with the guitar and I'll end the Blues Lead Guitar 1. Take care Justin.
Thank you once again Justin. Learn a lot from you.
good
This is adorable. A bit late for my use though I might still try this with my sisters kids. The twins just turned 21 and they are gonna roll their eyes so hard.
:-)
Great teacher. Thanks.
You're welcome! :)
Really appreciate sir.
Always wondered how to play one, been using your guitar lessons for a long time now you're my go to online teacher. Thanks for all your effort over the years very much appreciated! 👍
Cheers Lewis - Uke is like a guitar thinnest 4 strings with capo on 5th fret! Easy!
@@justinguitar No problem, it's nice that every lesson feels fresh and genuine. And the I find the way you teach best suits me. Think I'll have to look at getting a ukulele and having a mess about on it. I'll be playing 'when I'm cleaning windows' just in time for when the family come round at Christmas. I'll skip the 'Wanker' song though as it's not very family friendly 😂
Love this! Uke shopping def on the to do list this week. As an aside lve just heard Drive by Joe Bonamassa, bloody hell! Would make a great lesson, nice solo too,. Cheers for the continued inspiration Justin.
Thanks this helps a lot great video 😉👍👍
Cheers Liam!
I decided to learn and play the uke for one reason...our 1st grandchild was born 6 months ago & I want to play and sing to her. I found the perfect video to get me started and for that I thank you Justin! Heading to your site now for more info.
Wonderful! Thank you. Cheers 😊

I would gander to say that if you still can't break into a good strumming pattern on the guitar, this might help to get your first steps in motion as it plays itself. I never thought much about one till this little diddy came to me today.... thank you Justin
Thanks Justin. I bought a couple of Uke's a while back to teach the grandkids as they always want to play with Grandad's 'tars, where Grandad doesn't want sticky lolly fingers on his "tars". Now I can play a few kiddies songs and not just AC/DC songs ;-)
Great video!
Incy wincy just put a massive smile on my face and made me remember that music doesn't always have to be super serious.
Love the way you teach...
Thanks Sayan!
The D'Addario Micro Tuner is great for Ukes. I have one that lives on my concert ukulele.
Yeah I have one of those somewhere - must dig it out!
I've watched you videos since 2015 when you did those ukellele for beginner parts
you rock justin
Thankyou. Wanted to have detailed lesson of ukulele. 😇new subscriber
My nieces, whenever they come over and I’m playing guitar, will always go grab the ukulele and pretend they’re playing along with me...good video dude...will try and teach them
Wow.. I've managed three of the chords. Took me a few hours, my fingers are killing me :-) but I never had so much fun in years.
I am from India. You are an amazing teacher. Excellent way of teaching. God bless you.
Thanks and welcome Cheers 😊

Great vid', Justin, you really have got me wanting to learn the uke . You could also use a Willie Nelson style strap that he uses on 'Trigger'.
will look up WN's strap... uke is loads of fun. do it!
Great lessons! Ill just add that you can just use an app on your phone to tune. There are many of those for free.
Do you have an App for the Ukulele, like the guitar one? Thanks I'm a newbie, 8 days! Love it!!! thanks for your help!. (In Seattle)
Great
Justin ! Please do a video on how to use the new katana version 4 update ! It allows MK1 to do stereo expand ! But no instructions ! HELP
Only saw this as I am using your website and app to learn guitar and as a show of support I have subscribed to your UA-cam aswell. I have a 4y/o daughter who loves playing my guitar... raking on it with a pick. But she finds it tooo heavy to hold (electric) can’t even see over it with it on her lap ( dreadnaught ).
This is a terribly inspiring idea. What have you done.
Great stuff, you should do some banjo videos Justin
No idea why I watched this whole thing, but I am so glad I did because your vamping scenario was freaking GOLDEN!!! OK, back to Intermediate Blue grade, blues (oh and now funk) & theory 5 \o/
ha ha!! Good luck on your journey!
@JustinGuitar , may I ask what ukulele are you using? What brand and what kind? It sounds amazing. I am a total beginner. Level 0 and would love to start with the instrument you are using here. Would really appreciate your help. Thanks.
Great idea Justin! How old do you think a kid can start learning uke do you think?
What the actual heck......only yesterday I was thinking of learning Ukulele......and today this video!
Many friends of mine are learning to play ukelele, this video will help them a lot. Thx justin, awesome job!
Do a tutorial of "The Campfire Song" by Chris August! Please do it! Listen to it first and let me know what you think.
Yeah! I'm gonna get a uke and melt my baby girl's face!!!
Any recommendations on what kind to buy?
All the years I’ve spent learning guitar I should have just bought a Ukulele instead 😂. Great stuff. Probably get one for my grandson as an introduction to music and the guitar 👍
Omg that so right 🤣
hi Justin, Where can i buy your hat.i like that next to your video tutorials! :) can you send me a link of the store?
9:30 I hear you play triplets (one-x-and-two-x-and), which is probably a bit more complex and confusing for beginners (and doesn't quite match the rhythmic pattern on a screen). Thank you for your lessons!
It's a shuffle - but I ain't going near explaining that in a 15 minute beginner video!
Hi! I just need a bit of help... I’m starting guitar next year (9th grade) and I don’t have a guitar... I wanted to join because my mom didn’t like any of the other options and I didn’t want to do choir again... what kind of guitar do I need?
@:36 The baritone has the same chord shapes as a concert or soprano? I learned something today.
The same intervals in the tuning, so a C on soprano is G on Bari - but it's the same shape! Not like chord in Open G tuning vs std on guitar. If a complete noob got a Bari by mistake and played a song - the concert pitch might be wrong, but the song would sound fine! :)
I don't even have a ukulele. But here just listening and enjoying the video.
High Justin sorry if this is a wrong platform but this is Douglas from Zambia and I'm requesting if you can teach a song by Peter Tosh called"lessons in my life"
i dont have kids but i love it
Heyyy Marty Schwartz here with Marty Music!! Here to teach you how tooo plaayyhh thee oookalaaeelaeehh!!!
@justinguitar finally I can bond with my daughter and let her free my guitars.....
Can we use a plectrum to play ukilele? Does it make the music more melodious?
Avoid plastic - people use felt plectrums on ukuleles. Cheers 😊

Dang it, man. Now I have to go buy a ukulele. (Smiling inside)
A question - when I place a capo at the 5th fret of my guitar, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings sound like A, E and C (when played open). But the 4th string doesn't sound like a ukulele G. Why is that? Or am I wrong?
On a ukulele, the 4th string is typically a "High G" and is an octave higher than the C (3rd) string.
HI SIS
The Baritone uses the chord shapes but they are not the same chord names eg the G on a concert is in fact a D on a Baritone
Remember, you are kids!!!
yeah!
hi! just wanted to let you know there’s a grammatical error in the title. it should be “your kids will love it!” anyway, great vid!!
Spotted and fixed and I have suitably punished myself for my stupidity ;)
@@justinguitar 😂😂😂😂
@@justinguitar by the way I have learned guitar only by watching your videos
I am at the intermediate stage now at stage 4
I just wanted to thank you for being such a good teacher😊
I look forward to practicing with Nitsuj every night ... FYI ☺️
I'll tell him! :)
