Um. How hard would the ukulele (or any other instrument that
*looks* like a guitar. You know what I mean.  ) be to learn coming
from the guitar? That's beautiful. Would love to try one out.

This is the guy that inspired me to suggest "close to you" He does a cool version of it that can be heard on his web site.

Awesome, I learned a version of "While my guitar gently weeps" from a fingerstyle book, alot of fun to play but no where near as complex as that uke. version.

A cool thing about how he played this tune is that you can hear that he was playing through chord s rather than thinking scales.
