After 2 years on the charts, this is the most underrated video on KZfaq!

Great no nonsense tutorial. Absolutely true to the original( in spite of that little addition sans second guitar). A favorite of mine for a half century. It's a privilege to have this opportunity to finally learn it. Thank you !

Awesome job taking a complex arrangement and breaking it down. I loved learning this song. Thanks a million.

Your excellent tutorial is making it possible for me to learn the very song that inspired me to pick up the guitar 50+ years ago. Thank you!

This is really good. Been playing this for 45 years and I'm still learning little nuances on it. One thing on your opening cover, the harmonics at the end - the strums start at the 5th, 7th, 12th, then back to the 7th. Then the final chord is not a slow strum but a slow single pick on each string with harmonics on the 12th of the top three. I know this video is two years old, so you've probably refined it since then but great job on this all around.

Thanks so much. I really appreciate your precision and patience. A natural and enthusiastic teacher.

To anyone wanting to play this duet solo-This is the best Little Martha lesson.

Absolutely great tutorial!!!!Thanks for sharing to the world. Very articulate explanation. Just happened to see this looking up tutorials and ran into this. My good fortune. Going to now tackle this piece. A most beautiful melody.

Really Great. Duane Alman himself ( Who died sadly at the age of 24) wrote this song! You play it as good as I have ever heard anyone, and it seems even better than I heard Duane Play his own song! Good Job !!!

Thanks for this great tutorial. I have always loved this tune.

Fantastic and thank you for tab as well! What a lovely tune and great playing

Dude, this makes the most sense of any lesson on here. Thank you!

fantastic explanation. thats for breaking it down.

Thank you very much for this. Very detailed, and counting out those fancy time signature bits they threw in there helps a lot. It is a beautiful tune and you play it beautifully.

This is awesome! Thanks for a great lesson!

What a wonderful way you have of playing ! A lovely tutorial. You really do have such a beautiful and gentle way of explaining how to play. It really means a lot to me considering I'm not so good at reading/understanding tabs.

Really solid lesson, thanks for your efforts!

That play through was wonderful.

Thank you so much for this lesson. Beautifully played and taught. And the tabs are fantastic! Subscribed!

Thanks Dave. New player so this is a steep learning curve. Your lessons are informative and easy to watch and follow. Also, thank you for your book, "The Perpetual Beginner". Great read!

Beautifully played

Fabulous on many levels.

What a great lesson - thanks so much!

You rule. This ruled. Thank you so much!

Just subbed. This is awesome, thank you!

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing.

I’ve been playing this in standard tuning forever knowing I was doing it way wrong for 33 years now…lol. Thank you for putting this out there for dummies like me. Gonna work on this for a while till I get it down……correctly.

Thanks so much. I figured this out many years ago, but haven't played it in ages. I have a solo gig coming up and I wanted to do it, and this made VERY easy!

Much thanks, top notch work

Awesome tutorial makes it seem easy

Awesome lesson bro thank you more allman brothers please 👊👍

Just discovered your channel. Excellent tutorial!

awesome lesson man!

Thank you very much, great tutorial! Greetings from Germany, Chris from Mainz

Wow. Excellent!

Very nice indeed. Great sounding Larrivee too.

Dig it, sounded great, gonna give it a whirl. Thanks for sharing.

Damn saw this…I’m subscribed!

Ran across this tuning quite by accident while replacing strings once upon a time ago and have left one of my acoustics in 'it' ever since. Just wait till you hear what it can do for your flatpicking sound.

Best I've ever seen

PERFECT! With a set of those D'Addario EJ38H Nashville Tuning strings, I bet it would sound amazing.

Love the Larrivee.... you certainly make it "sing".

The ultimate Little Martha tutorial.

Thanks for this. So great. I had a friend who was a roadie for the band in the 1990s so I had some great experiences backstage etc... I only have 2 guitars right now but songs like this one and other tunings for sure make the case for additional guitars so you can just leave them tuned to either open e or the other tuning I use a lot is double dropped d... (Overkill by Men at Work) and Cover me up by Jason Isbell. Beautiful guitar you have by the way.

Your Larivee sounds great.

Awesome lesson. Just wondering what type of thumb pick you use? I’ve tried several, and nothing feels comfortable…

Super job thanks. So I've been listening to this for 51 years now I have to ask who was Little Martha?

Great lesson as always Dave. Would you have any concerns leaving a guitar in Open E for an extended period of time, in terms of tension on the neck?

First section. 6 and 3 together pull off, but what frets?

Nice touch👏🏻 zero string buzzing🫡

Dave - Lookin like Neil Young these days!

not bad ,but not like the original
