[glassman18302]

That was awesome man. I teach the same way you do. Does he use a capo for the beginning....I would think? I appreciate your time and patince, cause I have none. Thanks again bro! Peace

[JSB83]

blah blah blah spit it out for christ sake

[guitarguy316]

That guitar is awesome! Love the gold accents on it!

[marc1paco1smith]

Thanks gally this video is really helping me out! :D

[dougparadis]

your holding a damn good reason not to play with knives bud

[atxhornytoad]

Thanks for posting all of your tutorials. That is great of you to do. Just a suggestion: you always jump right into the lesson, it would be MUCH more helpful if you play the entire song (or a big chunk) through in the beginning so that people have an idea what they are learning

[scottabcd]

pretty good, thanks, but you should have this down pat before you start posting lessons. You could have done it in 1/2 the time if you were better prepared. Just some constructive criticism. Also, you sucking in too much snot.

I have been trying to learn this song for years!! thank ya much!!! Your a great teacher! =)

[0utcastAussie]

Thank God for computers and Youtube...And you gally042.

Years ago I had my left hand crushed in an industrial accident which crushed my thumb off and took the top joint middle finger off. Thumb reattached but seized at 1st joint. So with compo bought a left handed Ibanez Les Paul and started trying to learn. My mate Andy Carter, a gifted muso would get so fed up trying to teach me he would go thrash off on his own. Not very helpful !! But your vids are great, I can now learn JCM stuff !!

how long does it take you to get to play the full song on average ?

[gally042]

you mean learn the song or play??

[PrincessVeronica94]

Both!

[gally042]

about ten minutes to get this one down, and just to play it it takes the same as the length of the song

[Trongdore]

what's up man, i've just recently subscribed to you, love some of the songs you do. i can honestly say i've watched, at least, one or two of your videos everyday for about a week now. but there's this song i've always wanted to learn and there's no tabs for it anywhere. maybe you can figure it out by ear. it's called Rockabilly Psychosis by The Meteors. i've been wanting to learn this for a long time lol. pleeeeease.

[gally042]

hey thanks a lot, thats awesome, i will take a look at that song, take care

[joeakapins]

nice electric guitar :)

[gally042]

thanks a lot

[ellefin]

I thought that the talk about the fingers falling off was more like a joke but now you're playing with knives? Honestly Aaron, was it a cry for help to stop the request flood?

:)

[gally042]

haha now now settle down, lol i was bored at our cabin and i was playing with knives and stabbed myself in the hand lol, my long days or barre chords and holding a jet ski throttle will forever be damaged, take care lol

[ellefin]

ok ok, I believe you. No more risks like that though, there's so many future guitargods (that's right, gotta aim high) relaying on your guidance that we can't have anything severe happening to those hands. Keep it up, you're doing great!:)

[gally042]

haha i hear ya, i promise not to take anymore unreasonable risks with knives with my hands anymore, i cant leave you all without a teacher can i? haha

[ellefin]

Yeah, you can't. Thanks for putting my mind at ease:)

[gally042]

haha no problem

[MattEnigma01]

[gally042]

thanks a lot bro, i appreciate that, i am glad the videos are helping you, ill add that song to the list, takecare
