It takes a special person to be able to teach. A lot of talented people can perform their art extremely well but find it difficult to find the ability to teach that art. So not only are you an exceptional guitar player, you are also blessed with the ability and patience to teach that art. I'm sure your schedule is crazy busy, so taking the time out of your day to teach others something that you love is amazing by itself. You are talented in so many ways man. I have always been a fan but have found a new respect for you as a teacher. You may be teaching the next Keith, Eric, Brad or Eddie and not even know it. Keep up the good work and God bless.

Dr. Christian Conte just a fyi, He didn’t take his time to teach anyone anything, this is a guitar lesson that comes with a “Urban” guitar. Its a cd pack, I bought one only because “He” said it was a good well made guitar, Turned out to be a laminated piece of j**k. I returned it a few days after receiving it. He would never take this much time for free, To do anything. Hope this helps. Btw look up the “Urban” guitar. You will see!

!? I had the black cutaway, (acoustic), looks like the one he is using, “The Player” edition, they said it was select Sitka Top, and hand picked mahogany back and sides, Not true btw, it was all laminated, I took it to get set up, you know, lower the action, and set it up for my style playing, but while was at my local guitar shop, i asked a few questions about this specific guitar i brought in, and the guys there pointed out and showed me it was laminated. But Look man, dont let me persuade you not to get it, this guitar is “OK” if your just starting out, heck any guitar will do for that matter if ur brand new to guitar, I was only stating that this isn’t Keith UrBan sitting just loading videos to teach people for free, this is a part of a multi part set, that came with those “Player Series” guitar from HSN.

Happy to impart his knowledge and have fun whilst doing it. He addressed all the concerns I had as a beginner. The chords sound ok but the song comes alive when his voice kicks in. The various stages broken down, allow you to piece it all back together but with the new found knowledge of how it's supposed to fit. Great work guys, from the video production to the tab progressions.

The best and most friendly guitar lesson I ever watched. Meanwhile I am in the sixties but I have been playing this old CCR song since my student days. Unfortunately I am not a great guitar player and would be happy to play half as good as Keith Urban - not yet talking about the voice - but I learned quite soon that with just three chords and the associated minor chord you can probably play 80 percent of all songs, and with a guitar you are the king at all campfires. Singing Bad Moon Rising in D major however may be quite challenging, therefore I always used to play this song in G major, along with C and D chords, which you can perfectly complement with D7 and C7 chords and also using some single strings.

I just started playing 2 months ago to the day on an electric guitar. I''ve only recently started working on chords, strumming and chord progression. I tried chords in the beginning but I literally could not practice beyond about 2-3 minutes of playing due to finger pain. So, while I knew the shape of ADE and G, I didn't play/practice them for just under 2 month but instead worked on scales (A minor pentatonic and Blues) up and down the entire fretboard as well as learned some easy licks. It was much more "gentle" on my fingertips. But over the 2 months my finger tips have toughened up. Today I played/practiced chords, strumming patterns, various simple chord progressions for over 60 minutes non-stop. I stopped after that, not so much because of pain but fingers were getting tired. Had one of my best days today as far as progressing with chords which I really just started working on about 5 days ago...along with using a metronome. Once your fingers toughen up and lose nerve sensitivity is when you can really have fun practicing as well as a greater level of accomplishments. I haven't even yet learned any songs on the guitar after two months....well a few simple one involving mostly picking rather than chords. But now I plan to get Bad Moon Rising down!

Very clear. Of course real song has two guitars - one playing kind of the same as Keith played and the other has a guitar tuned down 1 tone and he is playing E-B-A shapes (but because downturns it ends up as D-A-G). Added this to show, you can basically play same thing and really make it sound different with little tricks when you get in band situ.

When Keith was showing how the beat went, he described it as boom chick-a-boom. Its resembling in the drum world as the train beat, that signature drum beat that W.S.Holland used when he backed up Johnny Cash from 59, til the end. Combined with the double half beat on the lead guitar. That was the magic that resonated with the vocals for that never heard sound. Even Sam Phillips knew it was special while at the same time knowing that Luther Perkins was a new player with little or no experience. It was magic and it had potential, more importantly it was original and something new.
