Uke Minutes 36 - 3 Finger Chunk

H-h-h-hey uke players of the Underground! UU presents a brand new episode of Uke Minutes, for your viewing pleasure:

Uke Minutes 36 - 3 Finger Chunk!

In this episode, we expand on the 3-finger "C String Bass Technique" from last week (available HERE for review) and provide a lighter, 3-fingered version of your basic Chunking technique (check out the chunk HERE).

Questions? Comments? Thoughts? Weird dreams about this technique? Post them below!
 
hey, was this used for the picking pattern to Is There a Place, too?

:smileybounce:
 
not this weeks live lesson but last weeks aldrine had it going...

a lot of people confused. so this was perfect!!
 
I only have a baritone, so I'm learning this as a 4 string chunk, using the top string as my baseline and plucking all 3 lower strings with my fingers...

I'm having trouble getting a solid chunk sound though...

Does it come from hitting the soundboard or just the strings? Any tips would be great.
 
ahh i really don't understand how to do the chunk bit itself

do i pick the string and then push down with the side of my thumb
or do i pick the string with my thumb against the string

so confused!

thanks for any help
 
I've just been slapping the fretboard with my fingertips.
 
Oh man, just watched CommunityChannel's newest video.

"Chunk" was her ugly word for the day. How sad. I love her stuff!
