I had guitar lessons as a kid, but fell away from it because of a personality conflict with my instructor (middle school class). I’m 57 years old now. While going through counseling and therapy for Complex PTSD, my therapist has encouraged me to pick it back up as music is the Universal Language and a healthy emotional release. I purchased a D’Angelico Premier acoustic last Saturday and started searching for lessons on KZfaq when I came across your channel. Your presentation style is clear, concise & very relatable. I’m retired and have very little going on in my life aside from hitting the gym 5 days a week and my Therapy sessions twice a week. Now, I have a healthy emotional outlet and have set aside 30mins each morning and evening for practice…and I absolutely WILL be sticking with your program. I can’t thank you enough! God bless you, young man!

Thank you for not starting your video with a showoff clip, shredding at a level years beyond the viewer’s ability. Those who do this tend to assume their viewers know a lot more than they actually do, then blah blah blah blah long complicated explanation packed with jargon. Simple clear and concise.

Thank you so much for making an "Absolute Absolute Beginner" video. All these "Beginner" videos wanna start with "How to play a ___ chord" and "Step 1 - Play a popular song" but no "This is what these strings are called" or "This is how to read the diagrams I'm gonna be flashing up on the screen". I'm a TRUE beginner - I don't even know what I'm looking at. First time ever holding a guitar and don't even know if I'm doing ~that~ right, or strumming properly. Before I get heckled to death for being stupid, I inherited my gr-gr-uncle's guitar who died 30 years ago. I just never had the heart to repair it because too many parts needed to be replaced and I felt like it wouldn't be his anymore. 3 decades later and now I feel like it's not honoring anyone for it to be sitting in my closet caked in dust, so I just got it professionally restored.. and it's beautiful. It didn't look or sound this good when he was singing us his silly, slightly inappropriate songs on his porch. I wanna learn to play it secretly to surprise my family.

The thing about finding a program is 100% correct. It's also one of the things you mainly pay teachers for. You pay teachers not just for learning, but their ability to organize information so it's easily digestable and you're not drowning in information.

This is the first time I've come across a beginner guitar lesson that I could follow from start to finish with absolute clarity. The pacing of the instruction was simply brilliant, and the level of detail was perfectly tailored for someone like me who's starting from scratch. It's a relief to finally find a starting point that feels right, and I'm genuinely grateful for the evident effort that went into producing such a well-crafted video. A huge thank you for this resource - it's been incredibly useful and appreciated!

It's kind of fascinating, that it took this long, for someone to understand how to make a BEGINNING guitar video. I've never understood these other channels, that claim to be for beginners, and then the dude starts talking and never stops talking. Before you know it ... He's way off track ... Has moved on to guitar theory .... And just has no reason being online teaching lessons. Finally! .... It's good to see someone who gets it. KZfaq should give this guy an award for being able to accomplish what no other guitar teacher has been able to do .... ACTUALLY TEACH. I'm not big into influencers or online teachers, so we should all reward this guy with a subscription and make sure he gets to the level he deserves to be at. 💯😎👍🏼

Wow!! , I was afraid to learn guitar because I thought it would be too difficult, and I didn't know where to begin. I had lost hope and believed I wouldn't find a good program to guide me as an absolute beginner in learning guitar. As an absolute beginner, I didn't even know the names of the strings. You can't imagine the relief I felt when I finished watching that video because I regained hope in learning guitar in such a fun and smart way! I hardly ever comment on KZfaq videos, but I felt the need to comment on this one and say THANK YOU!!

Kevin, please continue to create these amazingly concise videos. I know you by name now because after watching your step-by-step involving all the levels of learning guitar I made a word document with a checklist and put your name on it. I'll email it to you if you'd like lol But I feel like you're the person that is going to keep me motivated the most because you're the most comprehensive, other people feel somewhat sporadic which leads to early onset frustration. Thanks for the direction.

Also appreciate your wit & sense of humor, keeps it light which I think makes for a better learning experience. You have mad skills, I’m subscribing because of your genuine & sincere nature…& that you are 180 degrees out from others who either want to sell something (or we can tell they’re not interested in helping anyone who doesn’t send $). You’re the first I’d be willing to sit down, have a beer & talk to. Look forward to more videos…now I’m gonna practice about an hour…keeping Eddie’s sacrifice in mind. 😊

A fuddy duddy like me can often deride YT, I mean a billion likes for a falling loaf of bread. However, there are also a ton of proper content creators that I can get something from, something from I mean learn something useful. I’ve paid for some lessons, watched a ton of other guitar videos on here & finally, someone who strips it back to the bare basics, not assuming that we all know what you’re talking about & pitching this at exactly the right pace. You were the guide I was looking for, a structure to measure progress & not taking yourself over seriously, humour is spot on. Subscribed & will be working my way through your videos rather than watching dozens of others & not getting anywhere. Thank you for the hard work you put in & also looking forward to seeing your growth as you work your way through your content. Good luck 👌🏻

i walked into a charity shop very close to me a few days ago and saw a guitar hanging on the wall. so i bought it and as if by magic your beginner video came up tops in my search. fantastic..... i've just organised a tuner and some picks and in the meantime am getting familiar with the strings following this lesson. thank you for your easy and straightforward delivery. i played violin at school but that was now 40+ years ago and i cannot even remember how to read music so i'm hoping your clear instruction will help me resurrect the basics of music. looking forward to my playing adventure and the peace i hope it will add to life. i will be sticking to your channel most definitely.

Wow your video is the 1st beginner tutorial that actually caters to the actual beginner, starting from scratch and although I'm not a complete beginner I've got a better understanding just from from your 1st video. I'll be sticking with you young man. I'm 64 and determined that I'm going to finally learn how to play and believe you're the one to teach me.❤

Amazing video! This is a great video for any starting guitarist. I'd love to put our brains together and do these same kind of intro videos but with a band perspective!
