{The Carpenters} Close To You - Ukulele Instrumental

RyRod · Apr 13, 2011

I don't know if I should even post this after Sungha Jung's video got posted. Kid's a tough act to follow!

Yet another redo of a song I learned awhile ago with the help of Dominator's tutorial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkK2s2Q92hY).

It's tough to make an outside video when you live a couple miles from the main airport in MI and the planes just happen to be taking off in the direction of your house.

In between take offs I managed to get a decent take done.

Played on the Talsma Tenor with Galli Genius Carbon strings tuned F# B D# G#.

Great job! I REALLY enjoyed listening to your playing. Quite expressive (and IMpressive)! Thank you for sharing.

Really nice playing! I enjoyed it very much.

That is some pretty impressive audio quality considering the apparent distance from the camera in your video.

More importantly, impressive ukulele playing!

Great job! Very well played

Thanks everyone! It really means a lot.

As for the audio quality. I guess I got lucky and bought the right external mic. Set the camera's mic level pretty high and it does the rest.
