SHRED WORKSHOP WITH LARISSA!⁠ ⁠ Just one day l

SHRED WORKSHOP WITH LARISSA!⁠
⁠
Just one day left till Larissa from @the_ukuleleaves takes over Flight Instagram account to share her story of how she developed her unique ukulele shred technique. Looking at Larissa it is very hard to believe that she picked up the uke just 3 years ago. The goal of this workshop is to inspire people who would like to try this technique and help them conquer their fear of learning something new. Have you ever had a feeling of watching someone play really well and think "wow, I will never be able to do this, no matter how hard I try?" Well, Larissa was there too and she has decided to share her experience with us all!⁠
⁠
It’s definitely a Flight School workshop you won’t want to miss! Tomorrow, 4th July at 6pm CET🤘⁠

Song: Juanes - La Camisa Negra⁠
Uke: Larissa custom Flight ukulele⁠

FRICTION PEGS⁠ ⁠ How many times have you shopp $FRICTION PEGS⁠ ⁠ How many times have you shopped for a ukulele and overlooked an instrument because it has those strange friction peg tuners at the back? How many people opt for the geared tuners that adorn the majority of ukuleles and guitars?⁠ ⁠ Well whilst it’s true that even your average geared tuner will be more than capable in keeping your instrument in tune, you’re missing a trick.⁠ ⁠ There is a reason that friction peg tuners have been used for centuries on the finest violins, cellos and, over the last century, ukuleles.⁠ ⁠ The tuning stability with these curious items is second to none. In fact there are some uke professionals and semi professional players who won’t use anything else. ⁠ ⁠ So if you have bought a ukulele from Flight and it has friction tuners, you have really spoilt yourself. But....⁠ ⁠ Here’s a little guide to how to use them.⁠ ⁠ 1. First of all you have received your uke but one or all of the strings are loose and the tuning peg won’t keep anything in tune. There isn’t a fault.⁠ ⁠ If you take a look at the very end of the tuning peg, you’ll see a little phillips screw. Get a small screw driver. Hold the tuning peg firmly, insert screwdriver into the screw and turn the screwdriver to the right (righty righty, lefty loosey). Turn it so there’s just enough friction (that’s why they’re called friction pegs) to stop the peg slipping but also that you can turn the peg to tune the string. ⁠ ⁠ 2. When tuning the instrument, the strings should be set up so that you can turn the friction peg outwards so that the string curves over the top of the metal part of the tuning peg from the inside. ⁠ ⁠ 3. There is a slight technique with using friction pegs. When tuning a flat string for instance; tune the string so it’s a little bit sharp to begin and then work down a fraction at a time until it’s in the right key. If the string is sharp, detune until the string is flatter than you need and then tune up a fraction to the right key.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Check out this beautiful MUS-2 uke form our Heritage Series that artist @tombwildesq uses. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠$

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME! 🛹⁠
⁠
We have never seen anything like this before! @tosha_dobryi converted a uke to a short board and actually skates on it! 🛹⁠
⁠
While we are are used to seeing Flighters⁠
shredding on our ukuleles...we don’t normally see them grinding with them! 😂⁠
⁠
Don’t worry about the ukulele—it was a defective model that would have cost more to repair than its value.⁠
⁠
How great would it be to see Tony Hawk riding—and playing—a Flight ukulele? 🤣⁠
