  • always remember guys. we gotta use these four chords to accomplish the mission. only marty can make a guitar lesson sound like a black op.

  • Thanks, this actually gives me something to play with barre chords, I know the E and A shaped just didn't know any cool progressions

  • Awesome lesson!

  • Hey Marty, your videos are great. I wanted to ask you what, in your opinion, is the best amplifier brand 15 to 30 watts for a good BLUES tone. 

  • Thanks again Marty for another fantastic lesson. Got it down in about ten minutes or so, although it still doesn't sound as good as your playing it, but I think that's because of my set up...a tele, and a 15 watt Marshall. But...it's getting there. Love this lesson. Love learning the "blues." You helped me more than I can ever express.

  • Dude this guy can play!

  • OMG! You are so funny when you pretend to be me--like at 4:39!

  • Great instruction and playing. Thanks!

  • love the ending dude, thats funny

  • Oh my God, Marty took his hat off and his head exploded. Crap, where am I going to learn awesome new progressions now.

  • 1 Dislike , From 1 Dick. *_* !

  • @DIZCOXx now its two from some balls

  • Thanks, really enjoyed and learned something too. I like the way your lessons are for the people not for showing how good you are.

  • Very cool minor progression and rhythm pattern. THANKS!

  • This guy is a great teacher

  • digable.....

  • @tricountymusiccenter wahhahahahaha

  • One Dislike??? WTF's up with that??? Way to go Marty. Another great lesson!!! Thanks!!!

  • DAMN! This guy can PLAY!

  • this great ..thanks

  • marty's face when he says pressing down the chord is priceless

  • Very diggable, great work! :)

  • I have become obsessed with your lessons! I don't sleep at night anymore. Keep up the great work!

  • @nickmatty ditto

  • Hey Marty, love your lessons and have improved thanks to you. The first 30 seconds you run the lead to the 4th fret. I would really like to see a related lesson to than now that I have these cords down. 5 Asters!!!!!

  • on the intro lick(lead) did you use a mode over the Em7 chord?? if so which. thanx

  • The thrill is gone.

  • I would like to see him play early ZZ Top thats very bluesy, like Watin For The Bus =)

  • can u teach that lick at the begening of the lesson

  • Great as always!

  • This is A+++. I play it as shown on my electric and then 'scratched ' it out on my accoustic. On the accoustic I kept the position of the first 2 chords but then used a G7 and Gbm7 on a lower position root note to get more sound. This lesson is bookmarked. A good thing Youtube lessons don't wear out like old vinyl. This one is a keeper

    Thanks from Canada

  • Thanks for another great progression, I'm jamming with a drummer and probably a guitarist tomorrow, and I'll be using this one for sure.

    You have the best lessons, hands down.

    Peace

  • So if you have really common progressions like the I, IV, V or the II, V, I, does this progression have a name most people would recognize and have different applications for?

    Also - another great lesson, Marty. Keep 'em coming

  • 1, 4, 5 could kinda be called a 12-bar, depending on how it's played.

  • Marty, wow how you have grown since February when I first picked up a guitar and checked you out on youtube. This video was clear, concise, entertaining, informative, and " diggable." Dude, all your videos are awesome. Every f---ing one. I am another old dude, 40, but you give me confidence to just play and jam and I thank you for it. I bought a Fender electric and an old Memphis bass and along with my acoustic can't get enough. You should accept contributions through Paypal.

  • Greaty stuff. For myself I never get tired of the blues lessons. The style is so wide you could never run out of things to learn. Thanks for making it clearer.

  • marty, i like the videos u post man, but u got to do some besides blues once in a while

  • hey mate i'm loving the blues video its not for you to tell him what to post

  • Comment removed

  • greasyredneck - that's just silly.

  • He does. Have you seen his guitarjamzdotcom videos? And what about a few days ago when he did the one called "pure funk lesson" or something like that. Also, check the boxes under "more from: youcanlearnguitar" out of the first 5, only one of those videos is purely blues, and it can be applied to other genres.

    Anyways, what's wrong with blues?

  • wow...you calm down, and i just dont like the blues that much, i dont care what anybody else thinnks of it but i dont like it

  • as you said, who cares

  • Hey, sorry if I offended you bro, I was being calm, it's hard to convey chill-ness in youtube comments. But anyways, you should find some non-blues stuff on his other channels and on here if you look around.

  • every thing is going to be alright lol

  • sounds good

  • Kudos from another old guy....I started yelling at the neighbor's kids when the fireworks went off....

    Thank you, and please keep up the good work!

  • Holy crap man...when you took off your hat and exploded that made me jump in my seat!

    *whew*

    Dm

  • Awesome stuff as always marty! Not only do I get a lot of very useful info, but I am also inspired and challenged to be better. I think your style is smooth but most importantly I can feel it. Thanks again.

  • Just wanted to let your know this old retired dood is really enjoying your video lessons. I have picked the guitar back up after many years and i have learned from more your short prices tha any other source. Thanks a lot.

  • I find it a lot easier to play the G7 chord with my middle finger on the B string instead of pinky. I can't squeeze my hand like that.

  • hats off to ya

  • 4:38 !!! priceless !

  • Excellent Marty...

    More rhythm stuff PLEASE !

    My lead sucks lol

  • could you show like an example of a good turnaround for this progression maybe in a different video?

  • And, uh... *BOOOM* xD

    Thanks for the lesson Marty.

  • As always Marty,,,,YOU are the man!!!!
