Just FYI, the TABs seem like the chord changes all happen on beat 4, it was difficult for me to read it as I would expect the chord changes to fall on beat 1. Not sure if this was a mistake.

I noticed something funny that I think is universal for us guitar players, there’s this moment when we finish playing a composition or even just practicing where when we stop , there’s this moment when we snap back into real time and we all do this weird kind of head nod thing 😂 Playing definitely is an out of body experience! Am I right or am I right?!

Brian it’s impossible to communicate to you just how much you mean to us out here. And how you have had such a positive impact on so many. You have literally brought so much joy to lives with your talent and passion, only eternity will be able to reveal the immeasurable blessings you have blessed this world with.THANK YOU BRIAN. If I was able I would support you financially Iam in debt to you now and what you have provided over time is really priceless “ you can’t put a monetary value on what you have done “ you reap what you sow and you will reap blessings for the rest of your life. ❤️🎸 one day, I believe things will change for me and I will be able to get another guitar and I will practice and be able to enjoy the knowledge you share, and I will do my best to help someone else. It’s truly much better to give than to receive! I hope to someday be able to be a blessing to you financially. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I've been playing variations of 12 bar blues in E using Travis style picking for years. This lesson has opened up a whole new way of looking at it. I can't wait to get home to try it out. Thanks so much for bumping this old picker out of a rut. With this and many of your other lessons, I've experienced a renaissance late in life that is profoundly refreshing. Thanks so much, Brian. I'd recommend Active Melody without hesitation to any and all lifetime students of the most beautiful musical instrument on the planet!

Awesome video man. I’ve been literally running through your videos multiple times until I believe I understand the lesson points to be made. You’re an awesome fellow and quite the individual and I appreciate you taking your time for all these years. I thank you. I had a guitar instructor for about a year when I was twelve and he just basically asked me what lick or song I wanted to learn. Horrible. I kept playing and going through all sorts of guitars like I was a collector till probably 24. Then found myself going six years without even playing or owning a guitar. Hard times. But now Im 30 and I just bought a 61 SG and a vintage 00018 and I’m ready to get back into it

This is great! Ive played many of these licks, but consolidating like this was really helpful. And the Tbone chord was new to me, thanks! I do add a dead thumb bass to all of this, muted top E, then A at the change, I think it adds a lot to the overall sound. Great lesson!

I must admit this is my favorite video of all time from you!!! I watched like at least 8 of your videos in the last week wanting to know more about lead, well about over an hour ago I put this video on pause at 5:40 seconds... I am fricken playing the blues now!!!! My fingers just took off gosh why couldn't I learn this 15 years ago grr!!!! I'm just playing three chords with it using E G A.. Never knew I could do this solo! When I go into the solo I found just starting off using the B string on the 8th fret does wonders not even using the E string on 7th at all.. it goes great bending with it on the 9th fret on G string once I really get into action with the music.. I fricken love this!! Thanks a million for real!!! Reminds me of Stevie Ray a bunch!! Wish I could thank you in person but a huge shout out out of Dubuque Iowa for your awesome teachings!!
