"While my guitar gently weeps" by George Harrison.?

Question

Have just stumbled upon this gem.

This is a heavily modified Shimabukuro's ukelele version of George Harrison's song. I don't own a ukelele, I own a guitar, but I would like to learn to play the song in the exact manner that Shimabukuro plays it. Where can I find some tabs o Shimabukuro's version for an acoustic guitar?

I'd be grateful, thanx.

Answer 1

I have heard that guy too and he is totally awsome isn't he. That Shimabukuro is playing all over the neck. I play the mandolin which is basically the same as the ukelele but with 4 more strings. I don't think you will be able to find any tablature for the way that guy plays it. The only way you will be able to sound like him is to learn the ukelele or mandolin I'm sorry to say.
