[hiphop2renaissance]

great lesson. so far the best lesson on knockin on heavens door that i have yet to find. thnk u for the enjoyment and keep the lessons comin. thnk u!

[mayorc]

From what I see you're are lefthanded, considering most of us are right handed could flip your videos before posting that would help alot ! Thanks.

Or youtube should give a nice option to flip videos horizzontally/vertically on the fly before playing it...that would much much better.

[humeroya]

you are is major xD

[dngz0r]

this is the best version on youtube teaching knockin on heavens door :D

[MmMajorkAaA]

you. saved. my. life. xD

no rly, thank you very very very much :D

[KevinMillard68]

just some advice from a fellow lefty player on your strumming hand fan out your unused 3 fingers this will give you smoother strumming control,it will also help alot for proper hand damping techniques as well when needed,

[Bourne466]

thnks how do you play on an othet side/?

[JDMirage]

exactly the same..

[sylvain1333]

i'm a frenchy and this lesson is "trés sympa" :)

[smartiac]

is it just me or is there no audio?

[joximfat]

its just you..

[lam1266]

I also dont hear anything

[tommygun51]

i think its mono or something like that

because i hear only at one side of my headphones something......

[skillarz0wn]

you are my hero

[aneianape]

[FobTotz]

[josh18230]

Think I finally got it down. Thanks for posting these lessons.

[Jualmas1990]

ok, i start right now

[danieljhurley]

try 'hotel california' by the eagles

thats a harder "beginner" song to play

[CingD]

is there a special tuning i have to have?

because my chords im playing sound vry wrong...

[creatortag21]

No just more practice, i had the same problem ^^

[CingD]

okay, so theres no special tuning maybe its just my guitar (a very cheap one, but im goping to buy me a good one soon)

or im really doing it wrong...

thx for the reply

[CingD]

okay, i tuned it wrong....

yesterday, today its fine...

you know im a beginner^^

[creatortag21]

So, good luck . I'm a beginner too ^^ and i've learn this song in one day ;p very nice and simple to play . And my style is fingerstyle :D

[CingD]

thx..

and yes its very simple, but it sounds so wonderful, really!

i also larned it in one day, and now im trying to learn it with singing....

[MJ2327]

in one day? i've some problems with the upstrokes i can only play it with downstrokes and that doesn't sound as nice

[deycha1]

yeah, me too, my upstrokes sound bad :( can someone give us some advice?

[darkstar8686]

Make sure that all the notes ring clean independently when you pluck them. Upstrokes can be hard, make sure your not stroking to hard if you get me. It'll fall into place just need a bit more practice :)

[deycha1]

since my last post (2 weeks ago) i really improved my upstrokes :) i totally get you now :) i can play this really good now! thank you anyway!

[darkstar8686]

Hey man thats really good to here. Keep up the practice and you can see how you can improve. I've been playing for 8 years and i'm still learning. Its an awesome skill, good for the ladies ;) but the process will help you in everything if you persever and push on through. Peace

[00Kleinfeld]

[a2doublezee]

Good video lesson! Thank u for posting it here Sir! :D

[zero123493]

i am lefty but... i play with a righty guitar lmao

[a2doublezee]

Hey Zero123493!

Lmao too.. same thing I play the righty guitar eventhough I'm a full time lefty!! Cool! Hehe... Looks like we are using both parts of our brain! ;P

[zero123493]

what i meant is that i strum with my left hand.. but it is a righty guitar :P lolz

[a2doublezee]

OOoookay! Now I get it.. lols!!!

[zero123493]

ima freak lolz... and i cant do some power chords but ohh well xd

[harenderkhatri]

Do you find any problem figuring the rhytm of a song .. or may be singing the song while playing.. I am also a lefty playing a right hand guitar.. but find difficult to adapt a strum

[a2doublezee]

Hey Herender!

Well.. I dont have problems while strumming or with the rhythm pattern.. But when I start singing I start messing up with the guitar! Cool another lefty-hand righty-guitar player! lols! I can pick up most of the songs.. its just that I cant't sing along! Well.. I think I need more practice! :)

[harenderkhatri]

Similiar is the issue with me. Somehow the strumming and vocals do not match in tempo :)

[mek0626]

that was very VERY helpful! thank you for taking the time to post this!

[1337ss]
