Dock Of The Bay - Otis Redding (Songs Guitar Lesson ST-504) How to play

[42Redbear]

Justin: Another great lesson! Many thanks.

PS: Please ignore the dorkheads ... The world is full of jerks and I sometimes think half of them are regulars on YouTube.

[MKisinthebuilding]

I have a question... Which part do I play when he does the whistley bit at the end? Verse, Chorus or Bridge???

Cheers

MK

[upmybumful]

Justin ur doin a great job man , really kewl mate , so thanx & the tassie devil rocks mate , u do the aussie's proud , pity more guys teachin guitar havent got the same attitude , you take good care mate

[adelle104]

love this vid. it's fun and easy to play with...not that i was paying attention to your accent...lol...but are you from the UK and where abouts cos at some points you sound so australian (i'm australian by the way) but at others indisputely british? anyway thanks for the upload, great vid.

[s3c0ndsk1n]

@adelle104 I'm guessing the Tasmanian Devil at the end is a clue :)

[musicmatty67]

Superb..excellent lesson as usual. Were just getting ready to start this tune in our oldies band..so this will surley cheat me along to save some time working this out. Thanks again!

[ncriverpirate]

woah.. thought your guitar only had 3 strings at first.. you can only see 3 of the tuning nobs..

[doodman73]

ok do you know the lead guitar version like the pearl jam version if you've heard it, is a bit more complicated but your vid is helpful.

[faynar1]

Justin,

You never fail to put a smile on my face. You make me happy. Thank you.

[RANGERVETBRET]

IF PPL THINK JUSTIN IS DOIN A CORD WRONG AND NOTICE IT AND LISTIN TO THE SONG AND MAKE THE CORRECTION ON THEIR GUITAR , WELL THEN ,THAT IS JUSTIN"S BIGGEST AND FIRST MOST LESSON AND U DIDNT EVEN KNOW IT WAS BEING TOUGHT 2 U.

[mgfdh]

Hi Justin, you have a sweet sweet voice and such a pretty mouth.

[Superrob11]

lol @ "big barre chord f"; nevertheless absolutely great lesson (as always!). You truely have a talent as both a musician and teacher (which don't always go hand in hand)!

[Lastaccountgothacked]

LOL Just rinsed his opposition.

[junfan105]

Hi there Justin, Mike Surman just saying hello!

Good to see you showing us how its done!

Speak soon and Thumbs up!

[msmusicmaker]

This is awesome! Thanks alot!

[Zirboman]

I can't B7 what people tell me to do...

[KrishValiente]

@Zirboman Practice barre chords, it takes time I was stumped to what to do too, but it took me like a week trying to play songs with the chord in, like Livin' on a Prayer :)

[Kenteladen]

thank you mate:D Just started to learn the chords though:P any practice is good practice, right?:)

[theamazingsupergirl]

awesome, as usual!

[casadyrocks]

Thanks -good stuff, I appreciated it. BTW- I really hope that every douchebag on You Tube is not only from the USA....they seem disproportionately represented here....

[indiaWi]

!!!!!!! super super :)

[nicos808]

Wasting Geeee EEEE ee! haha love that

[innocentnaiveboy]

[lotfyz]

[PamsRulez]

I LOVEEE your lessons, I´ve been playing guitar for a year or more but you are the BEST guitar teacher ever!

Now I love playing guitar becouse of you ( well I´ve been watching your lessons like 3 days from now) But still I´m too lazy and now I´m loving it becouse of you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[kynyrdskynyrd]

All the chords are majors,no minors or 7ths.Just listen to the real deal.

[Solus77]

Damn I love this song. One of the first I learned when I was startin' out. It's been a while since I saw the vid but I missed the Sittin' on the Dock of the A, Wastin' G and goin' to E... xD

[spudy44]

Fab thank you x

[Berube360]

1:41 Thats what she said HAHA :D

[itzalka]

[pete2480]

[Solus77]

Yeah, this is my favorite Justin lesson. Haha

[aznbang]

[privatekept]

You're streets ahead of Dave.

[Noortje169]

Haha, I just started singing along when you told me to ;-)

Thank you for your lesson! I didn't know you before, but I guess i'm a fan already.

[bap2best]

rly enjoyed this one a lot, thanks a bunch as usual :)

[rollant]

GREAT SONG GREAT LESSON

[1983msangel]

Hey, im just playing for half a year, and you make it so easy for me to follow you with the guitar!! So thank you for teaching this song.

Angela ;.)

[ptran001]

lol i love the little shoutout to dave taub in the beginning

[DumblyBrilliant]

...Ooops. If B7 were Tony Blair I would fart in his general direction.

[DumblyBrilliant]

I am B7 phobic. I can handle virtually any bar chord but I hate B7. If B7

[Szczepan07]

your lessons are just great fun :)

[nuesuh]

nothing to B7 for

[thefeeps]

How cool! I like it, you don't shout at me like my guitar teacher used to....he was angry angry angry!!

[altadena57]

Justin; To my ear, it's an E major, not an E minor at all points in the chorus. Would you listen again, and see if you still think it's an Em?

Anyone else hear it as E major at all points in the chorus??

Thanks;

[Solus77]

Your might be right about this. Can't tell for sure. When I play it with barre chords I use E major for the chorus part and barre chords for everything else. E minor sounds okay here though.

[riri37000]

Very very good teaching!!

Congratulations!!

And nice voice too.

[markcb74]

Thanks Justin. Good lesson as always.

[240stu]

G on the dock of the A wasting G... very good, a nice and effective lesson.

[northernsoul55]

Another great lesson Justin, many thanks for your time, cheers :-)

[clownonstrat]

Hello Good Person! Only the good offer lessons for free! I tip my hat to your opening line.

Thank you Justin for another excellent lesson.

[pagonzalez1983]

been playing guitar for 13 years and i have never thought of playing B7 like that. it's so much better your way!!! any time i can use an open chord i'm all over it.

[king2be]

Great lesson.

[king2be]

[elviswayne03]

Excellent Justin, Great Job,

Your a very good Teacher,,

[DarkMuj]

Hey Justin, I've been learning from you for a while now, you're brilliant. Great vid, love how you sing the chord names as part of the words,

equally informative and hilarious!

[loui0008]

great stuff, Justin, thanks!

[tegrenath]

For those asking, a B7 chord is x21202 and a D7 is xx0212. That's from lowest to highest, a la EAdgbe.

[Doji09071990]

you are an awsome guitar player... *thumbsup*

I wanted to ask you if you could do a lesson about "streets of london"???

would be awsome

thx

[photopicker]

[malern6]

Justin I really appreciate the lessons. I'm learning myself and have surfed the H*** out of this site. By far you have absolutely been the best. Do you think you could do a lesson on "Can't you see what that woman is doing to me" by Marshall Tucker Band? By the way where are you from?

[ungentlegentleman]

Post it on his profile page, i'm sure he doesn't go through all the comments he gets

[fugimugim]

Or you cna just play Amajor the way i play it, with two fingers, holding down the g and b string with my second finger and the d string with my first.

[kaboombanana]

thanks this was a really good lesson!

[clogozm]

Justin - I wish you were in the US. I'd totally take lessons from you. :) Thanks for these videos. So helpful!

[hermanshermits124124]

Excellent thank you so much justing, this is very much appreciated. Your website is also of great help, so much information!!

[bluesrockin1]

I appreciate the lesson...my g/f begged me to

learn this song for her!!!

[Piratetude]

Thanks man, you are by far the best instructor on this site. I did barre chords instead, but my issue has always been my right hand, and this was great for me. You rock.

[tim22100]

thank you, very very very helpful!

[wesleyfloyd66]

thanks for all of your help

[bushwhacker474]

your the coolest dude

ever

seriously

[kaysan83]

I will agree you're an excellent teacher. I'm definitely going to benefit from the material that you left.

[rexyfix]

you're a great teacher...thanks..good people...

[bigd522524]

Thanks!

[MaureenKilgore]

You are a remarkably dedicated and patient guide. Thank you. I realized this is a song I need to work up. So glad I happened upon this.

[fabsan1002]

We don't understand everything 'cause we're french but this lessson is very useful and well explained.

[gaby974]

thank you!!!

[surfboyabry007]

Justin...I'm a Forrest Gump guitar player and this is my favorite song. Thanks to you, I can now impress my friends..lol God bless you brother!!

[helloduo]

what is a forrest gump guitar player?

[ScoobeySnackz]

Yeah what on earth is a Forrest Gump guitar player?

[Dasilvarenegade]

my guess is a person who finds it hard to learn guitar. if not i havent got a clue

[Fradre]

Or person, who runs all live with guitar x]

[airman15905]

Thanks man I like the way you explain this music! Thanks for giving the time!!!:)

[jasong1509]

Justin, You ROCK!!!

[lancego30]

There are people who have the gift to teach, Justin is one of the best, his method is very easy to understand for the real beginners, i would say he's so efficient.

[b8nducci]

so i have had a guitar for over a year and this is the first song i have been able to play that somebody recognized. i know i suck but you are the dog's bollocks

[VisionPoet]

I'll be C'ing when the evening A! Awesome Justin.  You're by far the most gifted teacher I've run across. Please keep doing what you're doing.

[BlindLemonJR]

I learning more by watching the Justin then going to pay my teacher $100 a month for lessons LOL.

[xwildarcherx]

[Bond00016]

i think the intro is beautiful, and i really want to play it.

Yea About the War, hope fully Barak O Bama will be elected our new predident and this sense less killing will finally come to an end.

Thanks for your lessons so far

[vectorsect]

thank you so much for being here, I have learned/ picked up more in the last two days than I have in the last ten years, I couldn't play a song at all, don't get me wrong I knew lots of chords I just couldn't make them sound like anything, so thank you once more for the big hand up you've given me, so its practice practice practice for me

[cleodogg]

Your lessons and the way you teach them are awesome.You speak in laymen terms and it is easy to understand while learning to play.Thanx.There are no lessons anywhere on youtube for Red House,THe THrill Is Gone or Black magic Woman,any chance of you doung one or all. Juat asking.

[ThorXMK]

His forum has a section for lesson requests.

[ultimatejoeshmo]

hands down the best instructor for guitar i've seen yet on the internet.

[lorz600]

its easier to play this song using barre chords, you've a lovely voice though. Check out my version of this cool song :D

[bdarnell1966]

Justin has a nice singing voice as well.

[21murph21]

hey justin. just wanted to say thankyou. was rly starting to get angry with no being abel to play but you have rly helped me thanjs alot

[LoveAhiru]

You're awesome Justin! ;D I'm trying to train my ear so that's the great thing that you give this opportunity for us guitarist. :) Instead of just se what you do and copy it.

[shavenstringer]

Thanks very much Justin. Sweet lesson!

[fenders4life]

dave talp is AWESOME!!!

[flyyfisher]

I am a beginner and I appreciate the way Justin teaches...slow and easy. This is a great video and easy song to start with. If you are a beginner also, check out Justin's beginner lesson series on his web site. It's awesome. I think I'll become a guitar player yet.

[MasterErus]

Best Youtube lesson Period. Your great attitude, (no ego) easy to follow style and the fact that you are just plain having fun made it beyond great. I'm subscribed, and will watch all your stuff. Even the wife (who gave up guitar lessons a while ago) listening on the desk next to mine said she could follow you trying to learn. Thanks, Justin. You have a couple big fans here.

[laurasmiles]

brill!!i dont feel like the bridge is right tho

[tommymorgan999]

great stuff justin ,

Hami

[chastetaste]

Your videos are really useful so thank you,

do you think you could do a lesson either for "someday" by Bryan Greenberg or "Day old hate" by Dallas Green. if you haven't heard them, they're really good songs especially for the guitar.

;)

[herodeck312]

THanks for setting out to help us learn such a mellow song. you mentioned the uses of different strumming techniques. maybe more advanced ones if you will. would you be willing to do a lesson or two dedicated to teaching more advanced and unique stum technicues

Thanks

[xaylarosex]

Thanks for your beautiful trainning!
