Haha! That way lies madness 🙂I do know a uke player with a whammy bar on his uke, and it sounds great but the use was a custom build. As for pedals, you just need a pickup in your uke and an amp, quite a few players are using effects pedals these days.
Just found this video how good is this!! My question is does it work on baritone ? Or are my two fingers in wrong positions. Many thanks for your superb lessons, I prefer baritone as I have 67yr old engineers fingers and a tenor ukulele is the smallest I can manage.
Hi Helen, This is for Bb, not Bm, but the principles are the same ua-cam.com/video/PQUhYiYaW5s/v-deo.html It's really about hand position, not squeezing hard. Hope it helps!

Fabulous. I have been strumming for ten years and now I can see the next step is doable. Thank you
Thanks. This is so cool for all uke blues players!
once again you’ve shown me something I sorta knew already, but in a clear and easy to remember fashion.
so thanks again!
Really enjoyed this! Your lessons are so clear and easy to follow and your cheery attitude is so nice. Thanks for all your help.
A wealth of knowledge
Thanks Phil!!! I always joked that I’m more of a rhythm guy than a lead soloist. This lesson really helps answer some elusive questions I had
This looks both fun and within my current skillset. Thanks!
Many Thanks..
Having lots of fun with this. Thank you!!
Cheers Phil! It was worth getting up today - been playing the uke for several years, but never spotted this before.
That is really nice. This is so fun,thanks
Good stuff! Thanks Phil.
I'm thinking of buying a wah pedal and a whammy bar.
Where would I plug them in?

Cheers! Yes it does, but you'll be playing the key of G. To move it to the key of C, add 5 frets to every note.
@@PhilDoleman thank you Phil you have made an oldish non musical man very happy
Phil, I’m really struggling with Bm🥴 any tips
