Guitar Pro 8: My Thoughts

Guitar Pro has been my tabbing software of choice since I started Uke Hunt fifteen years ago. So the release of a new version prompts equal parts excitement and fear at Woodshed Towers. I’ve been using Guitar Pro 8 for a few weeks now (on a Mac) so I thought I’d share my experience with […]

The Beautiful South – A Little Time (Tabs)

The Beautiful South – A Little Time (Tab) The Beautiful South are one of those bands that are so British I can’t imagine them making it huge around the globe. Nevertheless, they have some great tunes so I wanted to tab A Little Time. Plus what remains of The Beautiful South recent toured with, Uke […]

Johnny Cash/NIN – Hurt (Tabs)

Johnny Cash/Nine Inch Nails – Hurt (Tab) This arrangement of Hurt is very much based on the Cash version. But I was a massive Nine Inch Nails fan as an angsty teen, so some of that version might have slipped through. The plodding pace of this song makes it pretty easy to play. Just make […]

Sick Leave

Sorry for going AWOL this week. I’ve been under the weather recently and completely out of it most of the week. Hopefully I’ll be back in business before long. Patreon A massive thanks to all Uke Hunt’s Patreon backers for keeping the site up and running this month. And double thanks go to these legendary […]

Marvin Gaye – Let’s Get It On (Tabs)

Marvin Gaye – Let’s Get It On (Tab) Here’s my take on Marvin Gaye’s Let’s Get It On. Although you could just tell people it’s Ed Sheeran’s Thinking Out Loud and no one will notice. I recommend being relaxed and loose with the phrasing in this one. Being on the beat is not sexy! My […]

Radiohead – Karma Police (Tabs)

Radiohead – Karma Police (Tab) I’ve written up quite a few Radiohead songs in the past. Now it’s time for the OK Computer track Karma Police. Intro: Mostly picking out the chords with the thumb on the C-string and the middle and index on the E and A, respectively. On the Eb chord there’s a […]

The White Stripes – We’re Going to Be Friends (Tabs)

The White Stripes – We’re Going to Be Friends (Tab) Following on from These Days with another Cotten-picking arrangement: a rare White Stripes acoustic song We’re Going to Be Friends. But this is easier than These Days as the thumb alternating between the g- and C-strings through the whole song. The melody is very simple […]

Friday Links: Robot Overlords, NFTs and Margaritaville

After Scott Morrison’s ill-advised ukuleling, the uke became a bit of a running theme in the Australian election with ukulele leaflets and losing MPs being dispatched by a ukulele robot overlord. A bunch of ukulele groups have been doing great work raising money to aid Ukraine. If you want to give some direct help, give […]
