fear my repetitive chorus

So I recently picked up an arch-back ebony concert ukulele from Leho. It is a sweet little instrument for the price!

What I'm wondering is what sort of strings come on it from the factory. Odds are decent that they're "Aquila new nylgut" from all I've heard, but I'd like to know for sure so I can help choose where to go when I wear these out.

I've asked on their facebook page, but no answer so far.

Hello, fellow lemmy ukulelians,

I'm just getting into this cute little instrument. I have a bit of a background in playing guitar, so I figured I might have an easy time playing Ukulele as well. However a few introductory lessons might be useful to really get into it.

If you know of any online resources, that you can recommend for learning, please do post them here!

I can stream from my phone too which means I can perform outside. First attempt at a stream was just 3 songs from my bedroom but I'll probably do some outdoors on my walking routes. I should be live at about 5pm GMT most days. Anyone who's interested here's my channel...https://www.twitch.tv/voran145

This was my entry into a Halloween ukulele challenge. I started from Aldrine Guerrero's playalong tutorial and built it up from there!

I managed to grab this before Reddit Sessions was removed. Couldn't not. It's my favorite song of hers.

I'm doing one on 20 October at 6pm Dublin time.

If it's dry I shall play outdoors and you can see some of Southern Ireland as well as the ocean.

Zoom may cut out at 40 minutes. If that happens just wait a period of 2-3 minutes and I'll restart.

Lyrics:

Smoke spills out past the tavern door The wail of a violin calls Why don't you play you say The pieces wait in neat lines

Queen Luna rises above the moor I move to meet your white pawn I see the hemlock you mixed with that red wine

All of this was a blunder of mine You can't take back your words Pour out the ocean and sunder the sky

I feign to sip from the poisoned wine I fail to see the branched lines I send my queen where rook waits on poised open file

Queen Luna lours spreads her fell white wings I hear the death howl they sing I load a shotgun with silver They are waiting outside

All of this was a blunder of mine You can't take back your words Pour out the ocean and sunder the sky

I've been working on improving my fingerstyle playing with some classical repertoire. This is my attempt at "Study No. 10", a classical guitar etude by Fernando Sor arranged by Jeff Peterson.

Sorry I didn't record a video to go with it. There's also an instrumental version since my voice doesn't quite capture the same passion as the original!

Got my first uke a couple of years ago, cheap soparano starter kit from Amazon. The tone is not great, I know it’s partly my technique but I’m hoping these will brighten it up a bit.

What strings are you using, and what are you using them on?

I'd feel a bit silly just posting umpteen songs of my own so I've held off, feel free to post yours!

I absolutely love this, honestly like it more than the original. It's impressive how she can get such luxurious sound out of a purely treble instrument.

Lyrics:

I ventured deep in the ocean, down to the dark plains

I felt the weight of the water upon my back

I swam to a fearsome place where no light penetrates

I gave in to the yawning abyssal black

I heard her fingers pluck the strings of a bone lyre

I lost all thought, caught in the whirling of the ocean gyre

The siren has drugged me, she's taken my will away

She's taken the red that was once my rage and pain

I felt her voice in my sinew, the nerve cords of my spine

My bones dissolved, oneiroid changes took hold

My skin swirled blue-grey, my limbs became serpentine

My neck split to form gills, I no longer felt the murderous cold

Her fingers danced wildly on the strings of a bone lyre

I was lost to the world, to the whirling of the ocean gyre

The siren has drugged me, she's taken my will away

She's taken the red that was once my rage and pain
