my first lesson, Thanx bro, I'm gonna get familiar with ths song and them I'm gonna visit my brother and have a jam with him,thanx again...Joan from New Zealand I want more lessons 2
Pretty Cool lesson here, Covers the topic quite well. Ive just made a bunch of detailed courses for beginners and advanced guitarists that you might be interested in. Check it out! would love to know what you and anyone watching this video thinks. Its totally free, and i mean TOTALLY
Thanks! It took me a few rewinds but I got it!! 1st song I've ever learned to "play" You really broke it down nicely and explained it all so well....and in a way that didn't make me feel dumb or spoken down to. Can't wait to check out some more of your lessons. And THANKS again :)
hey just wanted to say you've improved my guitar playing 100 times. I've been playing/learning with my dad for about a year now. and you've taught me my first song. so your wicked. would be awsome to get some more personal tips from you. hope to hear from you .
Man, You've helped me a bunch with many songs, but there's one Neil Young I can't seem to find the right track, which is my my hey hey (out of the blue)... People post things, but not as clear as you do...Pls help!!
This is a great video for beginners! Thank you very very much! I've been learning by myself off the internet for two years and the hardest part I find is figuring out the strum patterns. Your video broke it down perfectly at a time when I was feeling discouraged. So thank you so much!
you really make learning how to play the acoustic easy, fun and the chose of the songs are great. i learned how to play two songs in under an hour from watching videos than when i bought how to play guitar dvds. thanks I am going to contiune to watch and learn from your videos. i only want to strive better, maybe one day i will put a video on here and you will see what i learned from you.
i suck at playing guitar im trying my hardest to play it only had one lesson but cant realy understand it i got 2 godsmack songs down like bad religon and vampires but i kinda suck at those
FYI ur one of the best teachers on you tube ive learned so much from you and aaron gallagher....and best of all im not sitting in a classroom to do it!
I have been playing guitar a long time. i will teach anyone interested chords, strumming patterns, and even send pictures to your email to help you learn faster my price is the cheapest you will find. just email me, its my username then @ya/hoo(.)com after.(
I have been playing guitar a long time. i will teach anyone interested chords, strumming patterns, and even send pictures to your email to help you learn faster i only charge 20$. just email me its my username then ,com after(replace the , with.)
ok i get some of it... like the first bit hen i dont get how many strings are being played... if you can help me please e-mail loopykay13 thanks ^_^. love the guitar and want to play well...
I love reading how this is not a song for beginners, makes me feel like a pro, even though Ive only been playing for a year! Great video, taught me a lot :)
i think im just going to sell my guitar ive seen 100s of videos that say "easy songs" and no matter what i do it never sounds good. i simply suck at guitar!
It is, if you cant read the most basic of tablature its not Marty's fault. I find his lessons to be the easiest to follow and you can learn alot from him.
@bljasa in a nut shell left to right x-x-0-2-3-2 is the top string on your guitar to the bottom. x means don't strum this string. 0 means play this string without any fingers touching it and the 2 and 3 mean put a finger at those frets on your guitar. you would have your middle finger on the 2nd fret 4th string, your ring 3rd fret 5th string and index finger 2nd fret 6th string.
Hey!thanks,i'm the beginningest evr/so let me get this straight(er@least it seems2me_;)if i do this enough times,i might be able to play/anything-evr?k_strugglin but trying...
Marty...I have been trying to learn everything I can from the internet for the last eight months...with five kids and no time...but I work at it really hard and stay up half the night always. I have no lessons and no one to play with, but I have seen millions of these videos and am always so glad to see your name come up. You are one of the best teachers on you tube...in my eversohumble opinion. Besides...I LOVE "Willow".
I just bought my guitar yesterday. I am having trouble with this, but he makes me feel like I can do it if I just keep practicing. He's so slow and goes over it again and again. Love him!
Nice simplistic form of this masterpiece of Neil, I don't know whether to be happy or sad, as it's so simplistic, totally away from the real song. I'm a beginner, and this is at least going to help me learn so GREAT JOB man! I can't help but listen to the Massey Hall version of this song and wish it was that simple ha haha :) CHEERS
1stly do the barring parvt alone. You can surely get it rite dat way. Naturally ur other 3 fingers shud b pointing straight out for some reason. Then try get as much as possible of ur middle finger over to the G string so there will b no obstruction with the B string, while simultaneously using a different part of dis finger to hold down the barre. Then, while keeping those fingers frozen in place add on finger 3.
marty looks so serious in his old videos...
