Best tutorial i have watched on this strum. This has helped me big time thankyou !

[MattBatt]

Just learning the Uke and I must say this strumming pattern when practiced is a game changer for me. I was bored of the normal chord progression, but adding that sinple TAP at the start has changed the depth of so many songs for me.

Thanks!

EXCELLENT TEACHING> THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH

[SlyDeParis]

Thank you ! My playing was missing the "solo" G string, knew it, but didn't tried yet to figure by my own how to get it, and the Life ( or maybe the algorythm of Youtube ;) ) sent your tuto to me ! No doubt with the G string "solo" trick, this song sounds much better played, more aerial and sequenced at the same time.
I'm just surprised there is no palm mute at all, but maybe I got used to the way I played it with palm mutes on the first down and up strokes, because I learned it this way and it seemed to fit approximatively with the tapping sound ( not the solo G string ) we can hear on the Iz's recorging, making it sounds kind of a reggae style. I tried quickly to add a palm mute on the first up stroke after the "solo" G, but it seems too complicated and not useful for playing it as Iz did.
If you have a clue for what the missing tapping sound, it would be great ! Maybe a tap on the body of the uke ?
Thanks !
