J. Shimabukuro on ukulele and the utterly, inhumanly amazing Tommy Emmanual on acoustic playing a duet of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".

Is that a mandolin or ukulele?

My bad.  Trying to do too many things at once.  Corrected.

Nice find!

I've long been a fan of both musicians, but seeing and hearing them play a duet together was incredible.

It's a bass uke.  I've got two uke's.  A bass and tenor uke.  Also an old banjo and a hand made mandolin.

My dad played all of them.  My granddad built the mandolin.  Unfortunately the only musical talent that I have is prompted by baked beans.
