I found this video of a guy playing a ukelele, who absolutely jams on it. If any of you play an axe, you'll appreciate this guy's skill.

Ukelele

That ukelele was awesome. I remember ******** that my hands were too small to play bass - maybe this is for me.

I have a friend who can do the Super Mario Bros. also. It's hilarious!

Loved the uke clip.

As for neat guitar, this is still my favourite.

Pfft. This is a guitar clip.

Yngwie J. Malmsteen FTW! (Download is 14MB avi clip, work safe), Definately worth a boo.

Amazing. If you're thinking you've heard it all, skip ahead to about 3:12. Holy. Shi t.

That's Jake Shimabukuro on the ukulele. He's from Hawaii and has been recording for a few years now.

He's pretty popular in Japan and tours the US every once in awhile.

The ukelele player was terrific.

Holy **** has Yngwie gotten fat. While he can still play dazzlingly fast, his music still blows.

Pfah! Cop out.
Victor Wooten, one of the finest bass players in the world is about 5'4" tall and has teeny little hands and short stubby fingers. Lack of hand size hasn't held him back.

He looks like he's about ten.

Ledward Ka'apana is the bestest hawaiian guitar player. He's also the funniest.

At risk of lapsing into a school-yard "Who's the best. . ." tiff,

For impressive fast fret-board work and hammering-on;

Acoustic: Tommy Emmanuel (Australian, but awesome)
Electric: Nuno Bettencourt (Remember "Extreme" - check out the lead 8 on "Song for Love") or Eddie Van Halen before he became Pope

For lilting, melodic soulfulness:

Acoustic: Either Ben Harper or early Jack Johnson
Electric: Martin barre

Biggest hair and ******** poncing about:

Stevie Vai

And for Bar Chords with accidental bum notes, damped strings and fret buzz

ME!

What's your view on Les Claypool? I've been listening to him pretty much religiously for years now.
