Re: [Ukulele Madness] Hey, whatcha working on?

Well, I am not as advanced as many sound here. But I am getting better and
better with chord changes and strumming. I am working on several Contemporary
Christian songs that we sing at our church. Transposed several, so I can just
have the lyrics and chord names, and that is working out great. I am working on
about 7 of them. I have about 2 of them down pat. Of course, since it is the
Ukulele, I am adding a bit more rythym and beat to them, than if it was just a
guitar. I am totally in love with my Kala concert Uke, and I just purchased an
electric, solid body uke by Euluke...concert size, bird's eye maple...very fun
to play and it is very portable, so I take it outside and camping a lot. Has
headphones, and I bought a mini amp. A Honeytone, to use with it. So that is
very fun.

P.S. sorry if this goes through twice, something happened on my end and I am not
sure it went through.

Let me know how it works out. I have been thinking of doing the same thing,
With the octave tuning the sound is not what I am looking for while single
string playing with our group.

Thanks, Tom
