    The best tutorial for a beginners you rush off into a ego trip like most of the blokes

    Wow! Okay, so I'm a long-term very average guitarist. One of my brothers bought me a baritone uke for Christmas, and I keep it besides my desk to noodle on it during the day for occasional breaks. Ran into your video through your comment on a "How Great Thou Art" baritone uke video (looking for the _On the Porch Hymns_ channel you mentioned). I've never tried blues before and I have to tell you, I had a *BLAST* traveling around that blues scale with your backing track. I can't remember the last time I had such fun with a YT video. Thanks for the great lesson, and personally, as a teacher in varying contexts, I agree with the others... you're an excellent teacher. Looking forward to seeing your other videos when I can get to them.

    Excellent. The Baritone is now my uke of choice due in large part to Abigail Flowers. Thanks!

    Love everything you're doing!!
    Perhaps you could adjust the mix when you play with the backing track to bring the uke more forward??
    Thanks so much!! 😎

    Thanks for this and your other videos. I'm just beginning to learn the blues and blues scales. The blues scale in E at 11:20 in the video, I'm curious why stop the scale after the E? I've seen other scales that add the A, A#, B (#1 string, 5-6-7 frets) at the end of the scale with the scale reversing after the 7th fret. Is it a style choice, a matter of how many bars to fill, ...?

      Hey! Thanks so much for watching, and great question. The way I presented the E blues scale was intended to convey the scale *in theory*. So divorced from the actual playing of the scale in a musical context, the notes in the scale are E, G, A, A#, B, and D (then you can finish with the high E if you like). Once you know that those notes are the ones that “belong” to that scale (I like to think of it like a color palette in painting), you can find those notes on other strings. What you mentioned, like continuing the scale further up on the first string/E string, is geared toward showing you how to play the scale *in practice*. Which is obviously a great thing to learn! I just tend think of things in the theoretical sense first, so I ended up displaying the basic, one octave scale to start with. But when you’re actually playing, it’s fantastic to find those notes further up on the neck or on different strings!

    Thanks for this Baritone Blues lesson and for your other 12 bar blues lesson where you play with Quentin(SP?) and we can follow along. I hope you do more of that. I was able to use a simple strum pattern and keep up with the chord changes while feeling I was doing something bluesey with you two playing in the background. One think I noticed in the repeat strings of D7 D7 D7 D7 which took me out of the rhythms and sounds that the changing sequences like A7 G7 D7 A7 make. I guess when you're really good at doing melody and chords and complex strumming along with some chord variations, it sounds better, but when I play the sequence alone, it's kinda ho hum. Again, this was a very good set of two videos for me. ~ Ray
