I think it’s fascinating that guitar has a deeper meaning to it than just putting your fingers where they need to go! It’s amazing to learn

Old video, but just wanted to say I clicked on your guitar lessons on a whim one night and grabbed my partner's guitar. I've been playing guitar everyday for two years now, and it's made an immeasurable impact on my life. Just want to thank you for bringing so much joy to my life.

I’ve been player for a year (self taught) so I’ve never really been able to progress past cords and this was fairly easy, learnt it in like 10-15 mins but this is really helping with progression, so thank you very much

I'm so glad you've posted these because I've gotten about as good as I would with private lessons without paying a ridiculous amount of money. I'm about to go to college and will not be able to bring my guitar with me but I've finally achieved my wish of learning to play the guitar. I've been wanting to do this forever.

@Mattsana 6 жыл бұрын

What would I do without this guy? This has thought me something that has bothered me. And that is the timing. The sync between the hands you mentioned. I've learned this scale in just a matter of minutes with quite good coordination with the synced hands because of your thourougness. You are excellent. By far the most valuable guitar teacher I've seen both personally and on the internet. Probably the best teacher over all... thanks Andy.

Wow loved this lesson, except I still haven't figured out how to play the last C note (appears Andy puts first finger on first fret on the B string)?? Doesn't sound right, anyone help plz? Also the B note (2nd last one) is B string open, correct? He finishes off a bit quick on these 2 but the rest were great, thanks :)

@ericschmidt9883 5 жыл бұрын

He seems to go the approach where you use as few fingers as possible early on for as much as possible lol. Not just for this video, but I noticed that with a lot of his beginner material. Which isn't necessarily bad, it's just a difference in opinion I guess. By the way, the audio on the closeup mic is really, really bad. It sounds so aggravating with headphones lol

If you're a beginner use medium strings. Medium/Light or Light sound great but they'll tear up your fingers. Medium strings are easier on the fingers until you develop caluses on your fingers.
