New Year! New studio! New ukulele! New arrangement! Here's my ukulele solo rendition of "Human Nature" by MJ! Hope you like it!


My arrangement was inspired by:

- Igor Presnyakov's amazing acoustic guitar solo arrangement:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr7Bmy0Ui1I
- John Mayer's heart-touching performance at MJ's Tribute Memorial:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUeCjj9C0x0


My simple recording setup:

- Instrument: Ko'olau T-1 Hawaiian Ash (w/ aNueNue fluoro-carbon strings)
- Audio: Apogee MiC, GarageBand (+20% reverb, no EQ)
- Video: Canon S95, iMovie


Like, comment, favorite, subscribe and share are mostly appreciated! Thanks for watching!
