I wanted to create this blog as a place where I can store and retrieve information for future reference. I chose the name Humble Uker Ramblings because I have started out strumming my father's 1950's painted Harmony ukulele. I think that the greatest appeal of the ukulele as "the people's instrument" is it's humble simplicity. My contact email is HumbleUker@gmail.com. I have also been working on a blog for the Baritone Ukulele called Humble Baritonics.
When he plays all four regular strings together it sounds good, so why not a strumming instrument? Would strumming the four regular strings have too much of an effect on the four extra strings? Why not hit one of the four bass strings and then strum the four regular strings? That's something that a regular uke's re-entrant tuning makes awkward. And quite the looker, isn't it?
