Profiled in this month's Guitar Player Magazine - had to check it out.

Smokin' ukelele - the best since Tiny Tim ;) :D

Here's the LINK (http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=1352016870638076087&q=my+guitar+gently+weeps+ukelele)

Jake is a true master of that instrument. Amazing what he does on the ukulele. The arrangement of that song is so tasty. A true master indeed.

It surprised me that the sound is so good for playing outdoors (Central Park?). Dang, there are so many talents and masters out there in the world that we rarely hear of! That's one of the great things about the Internet - there is a lot of good stuff on the web, if you can find it.

I love this guy.

Is there such a thing as an electric uke?

While my uke gently weeps.

It'll cause the chicks to go all dreamy-eyed.

Did'j'all know that Martin made it's name on mandolins? It was all the rage in the 30's (I think).

Time for a brand new string instrument. Too many people trying to be SRV n' Hendrix. :p

Wow. That is all I can say. Wow.
