Learn How to Play the Ukelele the Smart Way With Populele

What in the…Populele?

Well, you have to admit – there is something about the ukelele that just gets you going. Perhaps it’s partly because Amanda Palmer, or perhaps the ukelele simply exudes fun.

Here’s a confession: I’ve always wanted one but I don’t know if I can play it or learn to play it. I do play the guitar, so it may be easy to learn.

But what if you’re kind of hopeless in this department but really want to play the ukelele?

Populele will save the day. 

The world’s first smart ukelele, this musical instrument is not just a toy. You know, like the Guitar Hero guitars (which are awesome nonetheless). Populele is a real ukelele – handcrafted European maple and Italian Aquila strings. Sounds fancy, doesn’t it?

On the tech side, the smart ukelele has a 72-LED fretboard, which, coupled with an app, will teach you how to play your first song in a quarter of an hour.

Sounds impossible? Not really. Think of those Yamaha keyboards with pre-set songs and keys that light up so you can learn how to play. It’s just like that, but for a ukelele.

What makes it more enticing is the Game Mode, which features games that are designed to teach you how to play without the trauma associated music teachers. (Okay, I had a really bad experience with one piano teacher when I was young.) With this mode, you get instant feedback and you can correct yourself AND feel rewarded immediately as well.

You can also record your songs and – naturally – share them on social media.

Learning to play a musical instrument takes hard work, effort, and time. Populele cuts you some slack and gives you a gamified experience, too.
