Uke Minutes 22 - Pluck Strum (with Jake Shimabukuro!)
August 9, 2008
Alright UU Crew-members … It’s doesn’t get much better than this. The Man, The Myth, The Legend - The Jake Shimabukuro (that’s right, I put ‘The’ in front of his name, just because he’s that awesome) - came around and hung out a bit with UU. So here it is, a very special episode of UKE MINUTES - PLUCK STRUM (with Jake Shimabukuro)!
Have fun with this technique, play around with it for a bit, and when you feel the time is right, log into our forum discussion about this episode and talk with some other cool people about it, too! Hope you enjoy chillin’ it here with Jake (and when you see him, please don’t give him a hard time about the fruit kabob thing).
