  • thinks great video.

  • thanks man

  • Thanks this vid will help a lot! :)

  • How come every time I try to play a chord, there is thing little 'click' sound that I hear? Is it cuz one of my fingers is touching a string that is supposed to just be open? Well how do I prevent that? I swear if I could solve this problem, all my other issues would be solved. Like... when trying to play a chrod, my fingers start hurting so bad from holding the strings down so long that I actually tear up... ughh !!

  • HEY MAN IM STARTING TO PLAY AND I CAN PLAY A COUPLE OF MUSICS USING WHAT I LEARNED FROM YOU BUT IM HAVING A PROBLEM MOVING MY FINGERS I KIND MOVE ONE AT THE TIME IS THERE ANI GOOD EXERCISES TO START MOVING ALL OF THEM AT ONCE???

  • by the way your thumb should not be that far up

  • Thanks bro, you're a good teacher. This vid helped me a lot!

  • thanks for making this video, me and my 9 year old son are now both learning to play the guitar and we have been watching this video over and over!

  • dont play the 6th string (the thick one) when you play the C chord

  • Thanks! I started playing these chords, today, the first time I picked up a guitar. Are my wrists supposed to hurt like this?

  • Thanks :) I sing and i pllay the drums but thid whole guiytar thing is new to me as of today lol you really helped

  • Thnx it rly helped :D

    good job besides that

    

  • My Guitar teacher said that the D is 1st finger 2nd fret 3rd string. middle finger on 2nd fret 1st string.then the ring finger is on 3rd fret 3rd string

  • thanks! it really helped me!

  • You just saved me $100 for guitar lessons. We need more people like you to devote your time to help people and save money for us poor people. Thank you!

  • You're so good! Tnk you!

  • Thank you!

    

  • Dude not a good video

  • do you press down on the strings hard or press down on it lightly? thanks

  • When I become famous I'm gonna credit some to you for teaching me this.... ;P Jk But thumbs up if you would!

  • thanks for the help, but my acoustic guitar isnt properly tuned so i need to get that done

  • thank you so much

  • ty i really learne some chords thanks to u :)

  • awesome, thanks

  • thank you for making this easy!

  • would these work for electric guitar?

  • @XPrincess30 Yes, but it won't sound the exact same way on the electric guitar, so you can't rely on the 'What it should sound like" part.

  • awesum it helped me so much

  • i like his style

  • I just wanted to take the time out to say that out of all of the videos ive watch, websites, books you have been the only one to give a true beginners video, i havent been able to understand anything thru anyone else. do you have a site that i could donate a few bucks to you?

  • thnx dude this video helped me a lot !!!

  • thanx man this is a verygood video!

  • @-xiongkou559 then you need to stay on you finger tips when u press down dont give up ull get the hang of it. Whats happening is ur not staying on ur finger tips when u play so ur muting the rest of the strings so when u strum all the way it plucks

  • My fingers doesn't seem to be in the right place. It too fat or something. It keeps touching other strings. Makes it sound bad.

  • @xiongkou559 Trust me, I thought the same thing. It takes practice, but you can get it. Whenever I have had that happen, I go string by string to find out where the problem is, and then fix it. After it's fixed, strum a few times so you can feel how your fingers need to be when you're making the strings ring clear. 

  • thanks big thanks

  • thumbs up if your fingers hurt like a motherfucker

  • Thank you dude fucking life saver haha

  • That helped me a lot :) I tried to find chords in internet and books but they seemed too difficult. This is actually easy! Thanx again :] Ps. Sorry 'bout bad english, i come from finland :(

  • Thnx!!! Now I can play how to save a life, chasing cars, AND dreaming with a broken heart. Believe it or not I have never even taken 1 REAL lesson b4 :3 I've only had my guitar about a week :D I learn fast

  • can you show us how to strum each chord next time you do it please :)

  • This really helped me, i learnt these chords in a day nooo joke!!! :D thank youuuu!

  • thanks dawg. good teaching

  • Thanks so much, I'm a complete beginner and this is super helpful! Greets!

  • Thanks :) I think I'm going to go through this every week. Today I learned how to strum better and play up a G chord. Progress.

  • Thanks so much, uber helpful.

  • This was super easy. Thanks so much :)

  • Love it maybe it could mention what strings to strum though

    

  • i dont get it i put my fingers in the right place but it doesnt sound like that when i strum.. :|

  • @RandomGirl123LOL

    same here, and I just tuned it.

  • @AlmightyScubba haha yeh it took me forever to figure out what i was doing wrong

  • Comment removed

  • Im going to sound really thick, but im confused.. Ahh stuff it ill learn the keyboard.

  • Tanks a lot!

  • It might help if you also mention which strings are strummed with each chord.

  • @dragns alll of them i think

  • @LoVePaNdA821 No... on the G chord, all are played. On the C chord, the bottom 5 are played. On the D chord, the bottom 4 are played. On the Am chord, bottom 5 are played. E chord, all are played. Em chord, all are played.

  • Thank you !!! :D

  • holy crap dude. you are a miracle worker. thank you

  • Thank you your video is very helpful, kind of like Guitar Chords for Dummies! hehe I've learned 3 chords today because of your video! Wish I could see you strum the chords though at the end of the video when you played them together.

  • Like a boss! haha...thanks

  • I JUST LEARNED 3 NEW CHORDS IN  4;14 OOOOOO YEEEEEAAAAHHHHH

  • i was wondering if there is a certain way you must have your fingers on the neck.. because every time ive try to play a cord im always muting strings.

  • this was awesome thanks 

  • Thanx for that clear lesson

  • Thank you very much

  • Learned the first three chords in a matter of minutes thanks to this video. Incredible teaching. Muchas gracias from Alabama.

  • Thanks!!!

  • thanks for teaching me some cords!

  • my guitar is really crappy atm... one string broke off, everything is out of tune, im left handed and i have a right handed guitar, and it's a crappy beginning guitar... :( any suggestions for what cheap left handed guitar i could buy for beginners? i might take guitar lessons after i buy a guitar

  • @oceanrm same here but im right handed

  • @oceanrm Learn it right handed like Noel Gallagher

  • LOL i can only play the G cord.

  • You are amazing! Thank you for the lesson

  • you are my guitar hero!!! (seriously!!!)

  • plugfather . com has some great lessons also, as well as an awesome javascript guitar tuner!

  • @m0nkeypill0w oh ok. thanks

  • good video but the only problem is you don't say what strings you don't use while strumming and which ones you do

  • what strings are u strumming with your other hand? all of them?

  • Thanks that realy helped!XD

  • this is awesome!! you're really a great teacher. thanks

  • Omg... you're the first teacher I ever understood... can you please make some tutorials on easy songs? or some stretching techniques? thank you

  • Mine don't sound as good as yours... ....

    Is the normal for a beginner guitar player?xD

  • @Runningfoot2009O have to tune it first lol jk

  • thanks alot . may god bless you always :)

  • thumbs up if you think this guy is a don.

  • @justcause2gay this guy is GOD

  • at last! a video for ACTUALLY learning the guitar, not watching some guy playing the chords and you cant even see his fingers... THANKS! :D

  • @justcause2gay haha agree

  • thank you that was very helpful :D

  • Thank you so much for putting this up! :)

  • This video is great, you explain it way more clearly than almost everyone else I've talked to.

  • YOUR SO AWESOME!!! :D

  • Best vid yet.

  • Playing with long nails is not a good idea..haha

  • @DreamForever562 Actually guitar players grow long nails on one hand but keep the nails on the hand that does all of the chords short.

  • Very easy to follow... would like to learn a bit on the picking side so that I can make it sound like you

  • that is the most excellent way to show how to , for a beginner , Thanks Guy

  • tis helped me a lot .thanks ! :DD

  • This Helped A LOT! Thanks!:)

  • My guitar cost like $300 and I have a digital tuner, I followed all the steps yet mine sounds nothing like this

  • It'll depend on the guitar though I mean I could say whoop just bought a standard acoustic but it wouldn't sound anything like the one say slash has... Plus you gotta press down real hard so it doesn't come out weak and distorted.. Keep practicing.. Try 4 strums on each.

  • I respect you for the x files poster, you have a good day

  • DO YOU KNOW HOW HELPFUL THIS IS? I love you for making this video<3

    You're horrible if you dislike! 

  • That's not a g chord..

  • @lovesnicolepcd Then what is the G chord? which strings and which frets? i RLLY wanna learn how to play

  • it sounds bad on mine. not as clear. like constipated.

  • I found this very helpful :D

  • I can't bend my fingers like that D:

  • thanks for the help man very easy to follow i can play cords now and ive only been learning 1 day thanks again

  • thanks for the help

  • i didnt get the same sounds as yours?

    mines an acoustic too....

    awkward turtle*

  • this video has so much likes because he puts his fingers up to the camera to show you. which is really helpful. other video just have them playing and you sit there fiddling with your fingers trying to figure it out. Thank you!

  • Great help thanks a bunch

  • Pretty cool. Good job.

  • YAY! in 25 minutes, I learned a few chords on a dusty, brand new guitar! Now I can actually use it, instead of having it there for decoration(:

  • learned how to play the guitar in 10 minutes. like a boss.

  • @li1Richy haha,yeah :P

  • good teacher! =) God bless you

  • Thank you but when I tried all the chords they didn't sound like yours?

  • I don't get the same sound as you do. Could my guitar just be un-tuned? Or might i be doing something wrong? Because all of the chords i strum sound morbidly evil. And i doubt that's gonna impress anybody.

  • Nice fingers...

  • OMG this helped so so much, through all the "help" videos ive looked at, this was simple, easy & slow to follow! Thanks! :) from a beginner in guitar playing, Be well & much love, cherilyn

  • I usually use a ''full G chord'' by placing my ring finger on the 2nd string (B string) and my pinkie on the 1st string (low E string)... it sounds well, more ''fully'' xD

  • I just started playing literally 30 min ago and thanks to you I can go from chord to chord pretty fluently right now. However, all the practice I've done hasn't helped my ability to type. My fingers are so sore and fatigued!!!

  • This helped me so much thanks(:
