LDVT and tozz, the harder you hammer on, the more pronounced it will be. Also, it could be your strings. I replaced my Kala all nylgut strings with some Martin ones, and it definitely ruined Postcards, the tone just wasn’t the same. I put more Kala Nylguts on and it sounds perfect again.

I’m having the same problem as LDVT. Even if I focus on hitting the top string, it just doesn’t sound the same. Any advice?

When I do the hammer on, you can barely hear the note. What is your advice as to make the hammer on louder?

Bully Wee Dixson: Yeah, that’s a very good substitution to make.

This might be partially because I’m a beginner/I don’t have the best strings, but I like playing the C chord in the second half of the song “0433″ instead of “0003″. I just like the sound of it better in relation to the other chords. It keeps the tone bright where as the other way just kinda takes me out of the mood for a moment. Again this might be due to a harsh twang “0003″ C chords produce on my uke :/, but for those beginners with temperamental ukes, maybe this will help you!

Sounds perfect. Love the Beirut tabs and many, more. Although this is my first post, this has been my number one source for a while.

It seems as though it’s like exactly right except your tab seems to be higher than beirut’s version on youtube. Maybe they were tunning a half-step down?
