  • You rock Marty. You've taught me lots. You teach in a great way for someone to follow from. Keep it up please. There's lots out there who are learning from you. Your the first one I check for a song to learn. Cheers brother. Keep keeping on!!

  • Sorry if I'm asking too many questions! My Dad is a very good guitarist, he has a small time band but he plays by ear so he never was that great of a teacher. I am now 43 yrs old and my 10 yr old is wanting to learn so he and I signed up for lessons from a buddy of mine about a month ago. Man I have whiteboy rythm through and through lol, so often I get stuck trying to get the rythm and change chords, I hope to learn the guitar and if I do I want to buy a mandolin and learn to play it!

  • Hey Marty, I started taking guitar lessons about a month ago, I really appreciate your videos. I was wondering if you could do a couple lessons on Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain and Always on My Mind by Willie Nelson! I would love to learn how to play these, but especially blue eyes crying in the rain! Would also love to see you do Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms!

  • Beginner, grandama, trying to learn theguitar which I have loved since I was a child. I love your patience and your manner of teaching. Thanks for taking the time to teach all of us some of your talent. Maybe I'll fulfill my dream of playing one complete song. God bless you and may you live long and prosper. Meg K.

  • can you do a lesson on the last piece please that was awesome easy one though thanks greg

  • what song is this?

  • Oh my god just learned wonder wall and this one from you and in two hours i can play both, So amazing!!!!!

  • I shot a man in Reno

  • ianasone, when strumming you start on the root of the chord, so the A chord would be to start on the 5th string... keep on strumming and picking.....

  • I was wondering , do you know when your strumming the A chord do you start off on the 6th string or 5th? no too sure...?

  • Good stuff... i like the hat also!

  • yeah marty teach us WALK THE LINE

  • at the begining of the video look at his face..nuff said

  • Thank you so much

  • Cheers Marty. Awesome, as ever.

  • awesome bro! thanx

  • good lesson, thx!

  • can you teach us the last bit you were playing that was so cool

  • i've just started playing the guitar and i'm going through your videos as a beginner and think you are an awesome teacher.. I appreciate you dedicating your time to help us newbies out there.

  • @TheThomas700 Same here man :D

  • I am hear again....if you could give me the chords for this song. You are a GREAT TEACHER. thanks

    margie_kennedy@hotmail if you could send the chords....i am soooooooooooo a new beginner.

  • Awesome, I have just picked up the guitar and after watching your vids I now have about 4 progressions I can play around with, you make it so easy. Great stuff! thanks.

  • Marty, I am very thankful for all the videos that you post. You have brought guitar playing back to my life and I am very grateful. I recently purchased the Intermediate 3 DVD set and will soon be joining your website for future lessons. I am a high school teacher and totally dig your teaching style. I was wondering if you can post lessons how to play scales in drop D tuning. NOBODY does that; especially for hardcore and death metal players.

  • Why aren't u wearing a hat like usual ?

  • Hey Marty....you really seem to enjoy playing, and I like your style....amazingly easy lessons, all put in a nut-shell....always fun following your videos, and a great deal of satisfaction when practicing the way you teach......GREAT!......PS:how about some finger-loosing exercises (so one day I/we get to the point where I/we can play as you do by the end of this video) ?

  • 0:59

  • Very quick and easy song. Thanks for the lesson! I have tried to learn this many times, but there are so many different chord charts out there and they are all different. Marty, is this actually how Johnny Cash plays it?

  • marty, is that the fender frontman 25r ur using???(amp)

  • You are great. I tried to learn guitar back when I was a kid and never could get far enough to learn a song. Now I get a new guitar and with your lessons I finally learned something I can play for my kids. Thanks.

  • im not lien, he was really in my dreams playin lil wayne song for some reason , and i trried to get him to teach me but i had to leave

  • the way my father showed me how to transition between the E and A and E and B7 is between E and a hit open e then 2nd fret on e then fourth fret on e the go to the A chord. then from E to B7 hit open A the hit first fret then second then go to the B7 chord. sounds cool that way. hope i explained it right... lol

  • Marty! you are awsome! thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I work in a local small town Music store. (String Theory Music) Very Beginner specific here. We sell everything music! Its the family business and my sister just had two twin baby boys. Working here pretty much 7 days a week. Two videos of yours that i have been practicing, This one and Oasis "wonderwall" I can now play both songs and i am very surprised to say, it sounds great!

  • This dude is awesome

  • You are an excellent teacher. I've learned two great songs from you already and I can't say thanks enough. I've had my guitar for 5 years and never learned a thing. I was about to sell it and stumbled on your videos. Guitar finally makes some sense.

  • Easiest lesson ever! You've got to teach the, latter, fruition part too sometime (unless its already available somewhere?)!

    Many thanks.

  • Thank you Marty, you teach me something new everyday.

    You really are great mate. :D

  • Just thought I would drop a quick comment. I started to learn guitar three weeks ago - on my own. With the aid of the internet. Your videos have literally taught me to play. Play well ish. Three weeks! You break it down so well and my GOD the difference in my strumming! I am saving up to get your discs so I can practice out in the living room where it is more comfy to play. I cannot believe I am actually playing guitar! I am THRILLED! Thank you Marty!

    Thank you very much, and keep making videos!!!!

  • Nice job all your videos are great, you get to the point unlike some instructionals where they ramble on about stupid stuff that usally isnt important. But you should have taught the intro, outro and the solo. The intro and outro are really easy. Anyway keep up the good work.
