Virtually every musician can learn some valuable techniques from these groundbreaking lessons. They're exactly what every beginning player needs who's ever wanted to pick up the ukulele and play their favorite songs.
And it's sooo simple and easy (You'll see when you watch the DVDs).
And another really nice thing:
![](images/subhead013.png)
You'll never fall behind, because there is no schedule to keep up with.
If you can only practice your ukulele lessons 5 or 10 minutes a day, hey that's fine. Believe me, a leisurely pace works - it just takes a little longer. On the other hand, if you want to stay up all night learning with me, that's cool too.
It's completely up to you. And once you own these DVDs, you can watch them whenever want, so there's never any deadlines.
Best of all, you can get this entire course at a rock bottom price. We're planning on selling these lessons in the near future for as much as $147.
![](images/subhead014.png)
However, to celebrate the launch -- you can get them all for just $97 $77.
$77 will barely buy you a private lesson or two with a good teacher. But with "Ukulele Made Simple", you're getting lessons that you can watch over and over.
I actually charge over $100 an hour for studio session work and private lessons. And even if you could fly down to California I could only teach you about 10% of what's on these 3 DVDs in the same time period.
I honestly feel this is the best ukulele learning value offered anywhere. |
![](images/ukulele-014.jpg) Time to celebrate... Life is good.
Play your Ukulele and be happy. |
