  • you should should post the songs you teach on the website here.

  • Ben , you're so awsome!!!!!!

  • Smooth, mellow. This guy can play and is a real good teacher. His site suks big time. There is no help when you have a problem. None of the lessons listed are available anymore. Just as well.

  • nice setup

  • ok wat can i say ben?! ur a beast at guitar! u remind me of slash cus it sounds like ur just playin wat u feel....can u PLZ make a video on how to make a solo

  • Reminds me somehow of Sondre Lerche

  • Ben Lowrey comes across as quite a pleasant individual, but I'm not that gullible, I tested the website out very recently before I sent any money, I sent 3 emails 6 days ago, still no reply, I now assume had I experienced difficulty with the lesson downloads I would have been pushing into the wind from now until doomsday, nothing currently seems to be working at his website, all I get is not available.

  • Thanks for you comment! I totally agree - the website is very unconvincing.

  • Yes my friend,

    If you are interested go to Google and type Ben Lowrey's blog, then choose to read "My Life Story So Far", this is Ben Lowrey's story, you will get some insite to what drives this person, and who and what he is prepared to sacrifice for his personal gain, it makes quite interesting reading, I do think possibly in the early start Vguitar could have been genuine, but I think now he has better things to attend to ( profit ) and the site has now been neglected.

  • the site has not been neglected.

  • You obviously don't know what you're talking about, simply try to get into the forums and you'll soon find out it's not working, but you'll find there's plenty of ways to spend money, just try sending a test email with a question, I've tried it numerous times, still waiting no reply, it's now several weeks gone by, imagine if I had a technical problem with a download etc, I would still be waiting indefinitely,

    wake up and test it.

  • send ben a message on facebook see wat he says

  • what has facebook got to do with the download site, and all the technical non answered questions I have sent ,??? I'll say again test it.

  • @konnen2 i bought most of his lessons, it worked for me, but that was for aprox 1 year ago. A new guy owns the website now but i think its under control, and ben lowreys is still providing lessons

  • @konnen2 i think hes doing online marketing schemes now haha

  • can any1 tab this?

  • You were the man who taught me my first powerchords 9 months ago. I'm much better than I were then.

  • i like it, i think it sounds great, good job man

  • do you if there is a tab? or the name of the song?

  • he wrote the song

  • Hey What Guitar Is He Using?

    This Song Has A Lot Of Emotion It Makes You Feel Good Dont You Think?

  • i would say gibson les paul standard, but im not sure

  • I've purchased Ben's lessons guys. He is awesome.

    To all the detractors, perhaps Ben quite intentionally kept this simple to spark the learners out there to say, "Hey, I can play that". They would then seek more from Ben and we all know where that would lead.

    Awesome bit of passive marketing! You deserve to be a rich man, my friend!

  • Passive Marketing? I would want the teacher to be better than me - and to show what I can achieve to through his instruction. After listening to this piece - I think he is a hack and will never visit his site. There are far too many out there who can show you better.

  • Mabye you want an impressive teacher, but that's probably because you already have a lot of experience. On the other hand, Ben caters mostly to the first time guitarist who get's intimidated by someone doing some 1/16th note shredding.

    Personally, I don't think learning this piece would be so bad, not only cause it's easy, but it sounds like there's a lot of room for improvisation with it.

  • I would wager to say that he is a far better player than you will ever be. It takes a lot of skill to reduce difficult tunes for beginners. Not to mention his attitude and energy are great!

  • Is this a joke? Easy is nice and the smoothness shows you can play very very well. But where's the depth? The piece goes nowhere. Sorry, but you are much much better than this.

  • Good....but I've seen better from you, mate.

  • dude you play like santana, with expression!!!! most people play what they hear, you play what you feel!! your my idol!

  • very nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Good stuff Ben and just a real nice tune, keep it coming!

    Love the 'I felt your pain' comment from previous writer - LOL !!!!

  • Some of these guys are right. makin music isn't just about having a kick ass solo or face melting licks you know? its about puttin yourself into a song. Ben does it well here. its a great song and for all you guys who don't think so well then i don't think you know what it truly means to play guitar or write songs.

    Great Job Ben

  • hi i am one of the guys that has learned two of your lessons

    p.s.: NNIICCEE PPLLAAYYIINNGG!!

  • hey Bey,

    well done! Very soulful and introspective. I felt your pain. Have you had a sad event in your life latley? You have taught me alot I hope all is well with you and yours. Cheers , James

  • Lol, some people are saying this is boring and stuff...they really don't know the difference between some people that can turn a small amount of notes into something beautiful, and the people who can shred and just make noise.

  • cmon ben. you're better than this.

  • Boring and simplistic! I've seen you play - you should show us what you can really do.

  • cool

  • how did BEN get my e-mail?

  • Nice to be able to come up with something like that....Great tune..

  • Nice 5 stars!

  • pretty lame

  • That was great! I can't wheat tell I can play like that. It is so cool that you can teach people like me how to play guitar that can't pay thousands of dollars on guitar lessons. I am on lesson 7 and I am learning so much and having a lot of fun. TY for your fee lessons and I will continue to watch your vids and keep practicing.

  • Since you've become an internet millionaire already, there's no need to play difficult jams...

    Loved your lessons, they really helped my out!

    peace!

  • very simple and awesome Jam =D

  • Cool jam. Having fun with the lessons btw Ben.

  • Really Nice Ben..

    Keep it up Bro!

    5*****

  • Great video and cool effect at the beginning! How'd you do that?

  • the guys a legend. i couldnt have gotten this far learning guitar without him

  • you are damn right m8 :)

  • I begain to learn the guitar from You-Tube with lessons from Justin and Ben last year and learnd to play some of my favs, but because of school, I have let it slid. Because of this small video, it has resparked the desire to start over from the beginning and commit to it and see what new adventures and instresting people i meet.

    I only play rythem guitar, but I love it.

    Keep up the insparational work and e-mails.

  • Why does every solo have to have shredding?

    Ben it's a nice laid back tune to relax to ....leave it be!

  • sure, not every solo needs shred. But i personally favour a melodical shred than just a steady solo thats just changing key but not the feeling. Dont get me wrong, Ben is a good guitarist. But this melody wasnt that original, did not have so much dynamics. Just thought that Ben had much more to offer.

    Just listen to Slashs "sweet child o mine" solo and you know what im talking about :)

  • relax....... it is one piece!

    Do you play awe inspiring solos every time?

  • My band perform GnR track and yes the solo is great.

    However, I'm not sure Ben was aiming for a dynamic song. It's more of a simple chill out tune.

  • ye, i guess thats true. I was just so anxious when i got an Email from Ben that he had made a video of himself playing guitar. Im a fan of his. So I just got a little disappointed when it was just a chill out solo.

  • decent video. Although i hoped for something more as i know how good you are Ben. Dont make the solo easy with just plucking some notes, do some shred and some dynamics licks

  • Lovely stuff and cheers for the lessons :-)

  • Sounds deathly familiar, I think I heard this already. Besides lack of originality, you should make music more exciting by adding some killer shredding stuff with a lot of sweep picking and tapping. Badass guitar btw, looks sorta like 1/4 volume

  • send a vid and do it better smarty!!

  • awsum man.. love the emails + the lessons.. nd this is just an awsome riff.. love ur work .. keep it up!

  • great work ben, love your lessons, =)

  • very nice..what key are you playing in?

  • Really fucking nice

  • your reverb sounds awesome.......... what processor is that ???

  • God damnit, stop sending me spam emails. I don't care about your fucking guitar lessons and I don't want 20 emails in my inbox per day about it, alright?

    Prefacing each with 'this is not a marketing e-mail' is just disingenuous.

  • lol is that why you gave them your email? and still refuse to take yourself off the mailing list?

  • He only sends about an email a month, dude.

    Stop bitchin' and simply unsubscribe.

  • Do you need a hug?

  • yaaaay 5 stars all the way

  • nice... thats a sweet sounding LP and cool solo mate

  • Very nice Ben!! Put some lyrics to that and you've got a hit.

  • ...stacks of Marshall amps, a lovely Les Paul standard, and some melodic soloing - what's not to like?

  • great!!

  • that was great ben, i wish i could pull something like that :), i hope to see some more from you here

  • 5th of july, it was my bday! :D

  • happy b-day ^^

  • Great stuff as always Ben

  • i watched this video a few times over.. and i like it more and more each time!

  • Amazing video! You plat some great music...
