[HeyZeus096]

I haven't really picked up a guitar in 8 years. I decided to re-teach myself how to play by learning a few basic chords and then this song. Thanks, this is an amazing tutorial especially for a beginner such as myself!

[HeyZeus096]

[Rip0409]

Gracias compadre!!!!!!!! muy bueno.

[gchain]

Hi dude. you replied to me 2 days ago. im back and i can do almost the entire song.

is this an intermediate song expert or beginner?

by the way. you rock. i love this song and i can finally play it i subscribed of course

[MetalMayhem11]

@gchain sorry but i just now saw your comment. i'd say this song definitely isn't a beginner song but not quite expert. i'd say just above intermediate

[MetalMayhem11]

@gchain could you specify what point of the video you are talking about? sorry i'm not 100% sure i know where you are talking about and i don't want to mess you up any more.

[MetalMayhem11]

@gchain yep, your one finger bars all three strings on the 5th fret

[Mish891]

that was kickass. maybe it isn't the best quality of video or anything, but the lesson was friggin awesome. subscribing.

[noal63]

My guitar teacher has that shirt :o

[MrTeddyisSexy]

thank you for putting the strings where to strum, thanks to you i can finnaly know how to play stairway

[MetalMayhem11]

@MrTeddyisSexy Yeah, that's definitely the best way for me to learn too. Thanks for your comment!

[99rockhopper]

lol you fail a bunch of times but i can understand this son is really hard

[MetalMayhem11]

@99rockhopper haha yeah I always find some way to mess up when I'm doing these

[rwbrdms1]

Dude, thanks for the vid but damn bro eat a cough drop or something. hearing you hack up lung butter is messed up.

[MetalMayhem11]

@rwbrdms1 Hahaha sorry, had nothing to do since I was sick =P

[starkleland37]

hey. i know ive asked this before. but could you put up a vido on how to play said and done by meiko. your vedios are super helpful. i didnt know how to play guitar at all and now i know the whole intro!

[MetalMayhem11]

@starkleland37 yeah i remember. i just don't have the same time to make these videos as i used to, and i don't really have fun making them anymore. to be honest, i don't even play my guitar anymore but 1 or 2 days a week. i'll look into it, but don't get your hopes up. sorry

[mrcactuscooler]

hey i have the same shirt

[chrismaggot1]

oi man thanks so much, this is awesome.

[MetalMayhem11]

@chrismaggot1 Anytime, thanks for watching!

[MrKeith649]

hey man i like that guitar what brand is it man id like to know

[MetalMayhem11]

@MrKeith649 It's a Washburn. It's a great guitar, especially since I got it for about $200 three years ago.

[sjlarcadia]

Hey man! Been a long time. Anyway, How do you add those "bubbles" for your videos?

[MetalMayhem11]

@sjlarcadia They're called annotations, you have to click edit your video after you've posted it on YouTube, and there will be a section for annotations.

[nudellman]

Great video. A good tip for barring is rolling your index finger on the side.

[poggo45]

wat kinda guitar u got

[MetalMayhem11]

@poggo45 It's a Washburn. I'm not sure what model but I got mine at Sam Ash for around $250. You can probably find it on their website or one of their stores. It's definitely a great guitar though, I'd recommend it!

[lolking4]

Omg!! Bar chords are so complicated!

But nice vid

[MetalMayhem11]

@lolking4 Thanks. and yeah they are pretty hard, I didn't learn how to play them till I had been playing for about 3 years. You just have to practice them alot and form your calluses on your fingers.

[TheTimBuk2]

This is brilliant thank you soooo much!!! :D

[MetalMayhem11]

@TheTimBuk2 No problem, thanks for watching.

[starkleland37]

heyy! your video helped me soo much! your the only person i can really understand and easily learn how to play from. thanks alot! do you think you could make a video on how to play reasons to love you by meiko? i really want to learn how to play one of her songs but noone has videos up for her music..

[MetalMayhem11]

@starkleland37 Thanks for your comment. And I'll look into it, but I can't guarantee anything right now. I will try though

[starkleland37]

@MetalMayhem11 ok. cool. that would be great :)

[maomei44]

wow ,, thx for showing me how to play ,,, i like this ..=D

[MetalMayhem11]

@maomei44 You're welcome

[JoeB183]

[yutakai0]

[MetalMayhem11]

@yutakai0 Anytime. Thanks for watching and commenting

[iamdanny619]

I NEED HELP WITH THE F CHORD!!!!

[MetalMayhem11]

@iamdanny619 What do you mean? I'm not sure if I can really help you with it more than the video, but tell me what you have trouble with and I'll try

[MustNotWatch]

thanks your video help alot

[whatthefizuck]

you just gotta keep practicing the bars... making sure the notes rings clearly... and one day out the blue your fingers will know exactly what to do...

[FIFAStreet234]

Hey Do You have anytips for barring?, Because i find it real hard :(

[MetalMayhem11]

The only tip I could give you is to just push your fingers against it as hard as you can so that it won't hurt when you do bar. I don't really know how to explain it, sorry.

[FIFAStreet234]

Dont Worry. :)

[kayeocho]

At least theres someone on youtube thats very specific on guitar lessons.

Unlike other people.

Thnxs Dude!! XD

[MetalMayhem11]

No problem, thanks for watching and leaving a comment!

[jo36dev18]

hey this is good. thanks it helped me alot.

[MetalMayhem11]

no problem

[Wrestlinfan354]

terrific lesson man. good work.

[MetalMayhem11]

thanks

[pspmad1]

amazing thnx but in your info on the side you should put all of the tabs etc thnx so much

[MetalMayhem11]

i don't have tabs for songs. just search ultimate-guitar on google, they have the best tabs you can get

[THEtinybrat24]

I thought the finger picking was fairly easy, I thought it would be more. I learned this first part really quick but sometimes I have trouble barring on the 5th fret. I'm still working on it.

Nice lesson though! 5 stars!

[dealer205]

nice lesson, best on this song.

[Pac2011]

It's the best video teaching how to play Stairway on YT i've seen. I have some problems with pressing 3 strings on the 5th fret at the same time, but practice makes perfect :) Picking pattern helps a lot here. Thanks dude.

[MetalMayhem11]

Yeah I personally had to practice the finger-picking more than the fretting, but just practice it and it'll become easier

[anfiwyn]

wow great tutorial!! you make this classic so easy to understand and learn thanks for posting this :D

[MetalMayhem11]

hey no problem, thanks for watching!

[Death2777]

Your Vid was a Huge help. I'm actually just a beginner, and this is only the secound thing I know on the guitar. Sweet Washburn. I'm actually playing on a Cedarea ^.^

I rate this 7/5- Better than AWESOME! You rock

[MetalMayhem11]

Thanks alot, glad it helped. And you must be really good for a beginner if this was the second thing you learned lol

[Lolita1Wolf]

Thanks a lot, a bunch of my friends have been asking me to play this song for them and a could never find the tabs to learn it. Nice Washburn too.

[HardRockDim]

oh my god. thank you so much, this helped alot more than any of those so called "professionals."

good video too.

[MetalMayhem11]

thank you

[HardRockDim]

no problem, man.

[genieofduhlamp]

you do an open on the 5th string then slide to 8

[jmeproductions0]

what brand is your acousic guitar?

[MetalMayhem11]

It's a Washburn.

[jigsawki11a]

this really help you explained it very well and clearly all the other vids i looked at were to complicated 5/5
