A superb lesson, I'm fairly new to guitar and I find the attention to detail fantastic! U may need to cut ur finger nails tho, quite long for a bloke!
Clearly you are new to guitar ;) Guitar players often have long nails on their right hand because nails are important if you want to have any good sound if you do finger-picking :)
Justin, you nailed it. Some of the other players approximate the sound but you are right on. Thanks for being humble and not blowing through it even though you are are obviously a very good musician. Thanks again.
kick ass lesson, honestly I've looked at tabs for this so many times and just sort of gave up. But in just 12 minutes or so with your tutorial i know what to do, thanks a lot!
Justin...this is an awesome lesson! This song has been driving me crazy for a long time, being self taught I had the chords and could pick it decent enough but I couldn't figure out the strumming and picking thing. Keep posting these lessons, they are the best I've seen yet
Hello Justin, as often I see your excellent video-tutorials, I'm astonished how simple you're explaining the guitar tabs to us here. Thats the reason, I started my guitar playing again after 35 years.....and it works:-) Let me say THANK YOU VERY MUCH.. Keep going on and god bless you.
wow this song is fucking hard! This is why Neil is considered a true guitarist. I have to give that man props this is... WOW I will never learn this one...
Started to learn guitar again after 40 years. Thanks to you I am going to learn a song that I've been wanting to play for so long. No other can teach this like you. Thanks so much!!!!
Thank you Justin, ive played clarinet and tenor saxaphone my whole life but ive always wanted to play the guitar. I dont think i could have done it without your help
This is one awesome lesson. Been trying for years to figure out the strum pattern and he explained it all. And he almost nails Neils vocals too. Great job Justin!
I love all these lessons so much, they've really helped me advance as a guitar player. I visit the site so much I forget you have a youtube channel too! Lol
Thanks Justin. One of my favorites. Very well explained. Since I never used a pick before (sorry) this one will keep me busy though for a couple of weeks (at least)... which is good. Thanks again from Holland.
Thanks Man. Hey. what about a good fingerpicking song like John Prine Day is Done or Bob Dylan Don't think twice it's alright. Sorry for the requests but I would love to see you slow em down like you do!! Peace
Thanks Justin, not only are you an excellent teacher, but your playing is spot on. Some teachers make the songs simple, but you show how it's done. Thanks.
Everything I know comes from Your site, I mastered songs like Stairway to Heaven (with solo) and Sultans of Swing - Thank You very much for Your lessons :).
I have a question, will You consider making lesson for RHCP - Snow?
I have a question too if you'll allow. Have you given a contribution to Justin for his altruistic giving? Please consider doing this because he is a rare person indeed.
I doubt it, mate. He's already done two RHCP songs: 'Under The Bridge' and 'Can't Stop.' Don't get me wrong, I like your request... I'm just doubtful Justin will do it. I think he likes to branch out a bit and do a lot of different artists. So we're lucky we got two already for RHCP.
Great lesson... I learned real quick from this video... Rock on !!!
