I saw a blues guitar tutorial on youtube for soloing and they have 5 special boxes which consists of a set of notes, but forms a pattern on the fret board (2 of them looks like a sideways house).

I attempted to make somethign similar for the ukulele in teh key of G min pentatonic. But I wonder if this is possible for teh ukulele. The diagram is on paper and I got 5 funny looking blues boxes/patterns and designated whcih notes should be bent, vibrato, hammered on, pulled off, etc. to sound nice. But I do not know if they are correct or suitable for the ukulele, but when I tested them, it sounds pretty good. If someone's already made a chart, can you please share it? If no one's made it, I can share it with you guys, but I got to computerize it.
