[1234571881]

I like this guy he's the only one who seems to show the guitar and fingers up close so you can see what the hell is being played.Other people go to fast and began showing off playing songs.

[39tommyboy]

growing up in the back woods of oklahoma in the 70s after a hard days work and weekends we would sit on the porch and learn how to play. most kids today want to start squilling a guitar like eddie van halen does but its best to learn them chords first then move on to what ever. what ever works best for ya. good luck and god bless.

[Kmvv86]

thnks bro

[funcravers]

Perfect just learned my first chord! BTW I have an Ovation electric acoustic guitar for my first guitar. Is it any good or at least good to start with?

[twisterellafell]

[m203kid]

[LoadFasterPlox]

[jaquelinesosa]

[garrasnintendogirl]

Ahahaha...i would tell u ur wrong, but idk cuz ima begginner :3

[cheapestlessons]

I used to work for a company called Jamplay, they charged so much and they don't even make it simple for beginners to learn! i am now teaching by myself and my price is the cheapest you will find, and you will actually understand the way i teach!

[neckovski3]

and after e minor if you have to switch to a minor..you have to set the 2nd and 3rd finger not the 1st an 2nd..very wrong...

[theworldofguitars]

you actually need to set all 3 fingers as you need to use them it in a shape of an e chord the tab starting from low e is x02210

[soyouwannaplayguitar]

nice - I've done something similar - Top Ten Easiest Guitar Riffs

[pllpaige1]

on the first chord of the video is it A minor or E minor?

[Linsenman101]

E minor was the only chord played

[hdsodksjds]

Don't worry, that's good. Your forming calluses on the tip of your finger, that way you can press harder without much pain.

[oOAzureOo]

do u press hard on the trings so they dont make a weird vibrating noise. or is it that ur finger cant touch the silver part.(my 2nd day playing) cuz i have to press sorda hard so it makes good noise..is that okay? :S

[SilentShinobiOfSand]

you have to press on the strings. you cant just put your finger over it. so your ok. :)

[LOveTwiNz]

[1unhappyemomaggot]

[XmusicmeisterX]

[poornation]

Thanks, that was easy.

[blister94]

[mikerules52761]

lol He said G-string.

[ForeverInSong]

he wants you to touch it and push it, make sure you put enough pressure on your g-string....lol

[wishes1973]

hah i was watching that and my daughter walked past, she turned and looked and said 'EWW G-STRING!'

[gothicme7]

yay you rock even though you only taught me 1 cord lol.

[clippers09]

I agree,Great!!

[toxicthoughts747]

perfect, i like this guy.. he acts like everyone is retarded and thats exactly what im looking for.. great amount of detail

[r3fotzirx]

you took the words out of my mouth

[B0risTheBlade]

well actually most of people ARE retards, so no wonder he talks like that

[misscoyotelove]

@toxicthoughts747 This is good for me s on the other vids u cant see which finger gos on which string :)

[chatlo91]

There isn't much difference between using the 1st and 2nd fingers as opposed to the 2nd and 3rd. I find it easier to use 2nd and 3rd, however it is just as easy using 1st and 2nd, except if you try changing from Eminor to Emajor. It all depends on what you were taught when you first start playing. But bad habits are hard to break with guitar, just do whatever is easiest and gets the best results and you can't go wrong.

[SkylineScottro]

AMEN.

E minor is supposed to be played with 2 and 3

becase E Major uses 1 on the first fret of the G string.

[WolveWoman]

thanks! i like it!

[erikiia]

I LOVE THIS! LEARNING GUITAR FOR IDIOTS! hehe no really thanks for the video i now know how to play e minor woohoo!:)

[deadlydunc]

if you watched all the way through he does state you can use 1 and 2 or 2 and 3 depending on what you are doing or where you are going at the time. so nice work there columbo.

[gooonher]

oh I know but he says 1 and 2 fingers work better for changing to other chords and thats not true.

[gooonher]

Why dont you put all the chords in one video???

[3jup]

hauahuahuah 500 chords or more hauahua..

[gooonher]

dont be stupid , i mean 5 or 6 chords for each video.

dumbass

[DMZvideos]

i agree. i was always tought 2nd and 3rd

[HardFuckingRock]

Dave why do you guys put "TheNextLevelGuitar(dot)Com"

When it's NextLevelGuitar(dot)Com

[067613]

like it matters you can vary depending on whats best for you. personally i rarely use 2nd and 3rd fingers unless im going to a difficult chord that needs my 1st finger, dont criticise if ur not prepared to teach it yourself

[whatwoulditmatter]

because it's not a positive contribution when you teach a way to do something that isnt a good way to do it

[whatwoulditmatter]

No no no. Use the second and third finger for Em. It makes it MUCH MUCH easier to change to many other chords. Search the web and see diagrams.

[500passwords]

dont listen to the haters dave , they have nothing better to do with there pathetic lives , you guys rock. keep up the good work

[dennis1991z]

Too bad you're only explaining 1 chord, but they're a good start I guess. You're the man!

[WORRO01]

Hey, good little lesson, and im with you guys, there are people out here that need some basic,,ROCK ON UR GOOD PEOPLE!! 5*

1st woo

[heavyrockinguitarist]

Sorry Dave but that was horrible.

[rockongoodpeople]

Tim Here I am confused to why putting some basic Free Guitar chords could be horrible

Didnt everyone start at zero

This is confusing to me

[TheEarthBlues]

See my comment below. That's why.

[TheEarthBlues]

How can you say 1st and 2nd is better for that chord? Using 2nd and 3rd is far easier because it makes for an easier transition to G, E, A, C...etc....using 1st and 2nd is just complicated and will make transitions to those chords much harder for a beginner. I love your lessons but I disagree with this one.

[MikeMarino]

Yeah, I agree on this one, I find it way more comfortable to use 2nd and 3rd fingers for this chord.

[fire9910]

FIRST

[neoclassical01]

woopy fucking doo u commented first, do u want a medal or a oscar, fucking hate people who keep saying (wooooooooo i commented first im so special) !!!!
