[PAULB7743]

A man takes his time to give people a free lesson , to help people enhance their guitar playing , and some people don't like it ?

[EvilLamas]

[chooseyourblues]

One of the best teachers on the web...

[028rhina]

[TheArgenies]

[SaxKing52]

I wouldnt want the camera to melt...

[MrCookill]

Marty! :P

[theladieschains2]

nice thank you cause i love the 7 chords and the way they u can switch them from minor to major and make them sound cool and bluesy, john mayer does alot of that

[andredidiergijon]

I dont know what amp should i buy, pls give me some advice xD btw i have an lp

[renangoncalvesflores]

what's up duuuuuuuude!

[2uMRAsh]

Marty....... I think I love you

[beezerk1]

welll..personally, I hate Marty because after 40 years of playing i'm, like, learning shit from him - see my channel, I can't play shit. Whaddup wit dat? Kidding! One thing, tho - who SOLD YOU THAT HAT? Hat aside, you have a thing or two to share, so kudos!

[myfootinurass]

2:58.....theres a red house over yonder baby! 

[FunkyPraise]

"Shimmering, beautiful little morsel of sound". LOL Classic Marty. He is my guitar teacher for now and all time.

[nusdorfer]

in german, H is the equivalent for B - so he wasnt wrong.

now why its like that - no clue :)))

cough subscribe cough to my channel cough

[stephencolbertfanno1]

@nusdorfer Its because Bach didn't want to write Bb so instead he wrote H. It's the same in Serbia.

[softman88]

@stephencolbertfanno1 you're right. My father is a music teacher and told me about the H. He said that's a standard notation but few use it. I personally use Bb cause everyone knows it but H is quite correct.

[OnkelMickwald]

@softman88 Hmmm H is B and people who call B "H" call Bb "B"... That's why it's so friggin confusing lol.

[softman88]

@OnkelMickwald Ahhh... you're right... I was a little bit caught in the confusion, too :)))

[OnkelMickwald]

@softman88 Lol can't blame you actually. Actually it's only worth knowing if you're into classical music (at least from my experience)

[tedphilo]

Marty, is your father called Igor????

[CianCQ]

@tedphilo Ahahaha, nice one sir, nice one.

[chilibro]

is it easy for a bass player to pick up guitar?

[paullie6719]

Thanks alot man. Great stuff.

[intercosmos82jimi]

Your lessons are the best on you tube marty. I'm a guitar teacher as well and you are my best inspiration. thanks man:) peace

[anq666]

do you have a cd or something?

i'd totally buy that..

[RENDUI]

the korean tears ass up when she plays.

[dogswalkinghumans]

the h chord does exist, but if you play it the universe will collapse into itself



[topsinblued]

You are amazing Sir. Thank you so much!

[XristarasGamieste]

dear viewer

screw the excersises

buy a hat like this

[xdray]

very nice

[Troldegarn]

no the important thing is how many 'likes' stupid comments such as this is gonna get!

[PureXlethal101]

[margechronicles]

hey nice.. check mine out too youtube.com/watch?v=Psii4n2oRX­U&feature=channel_video_title

[Maynard0504]

[MadeoOnTheRadeo]

J guy sounds like Kyle Gass

[jorgetokesalot]

i got laid a lot more before i was playing music....i think that's ONLY because i live in miami.......if i was a dj my dick would fall off from over-use and abuse tho. terrible

[skinterz]

I dont know if you have the time to read these comments,but you have really improved me as a player...keep going.

[funguy4utube]

Tell me folks ... what kind of a miserable hater nutcase would click dislike ? I just noticed there are 55 of them .. Marty is a gift from Heaven .. what a fantastic guy he is ... everyone who plays owes him a HUGE thank you .. beginner .. intermediate .. or advanced .. he covers them all ...pg

[dragoneti67]

@funguy4utube I am pretty sure those comments are from kids looking for open D and metal songs

They don't like Funk or Jazz . I was surprised too. Besides it's a long way to the top if you wanna play Jazz , Funk or Blues

[MrWakeable]

@funguy4utube Missclicks :P

[MrWakeable]

@funguy4utube They missclick happens to me somtimes :P



[Akaankh]

@funguy4utube Amen to that

[grrgrralex]

[setoelkahfi]

ThaNKyou Martyyy!!!!!! :thumbup

[ravenwings100]

[afsartori]

@rockongoodpeople What amp were you using?

[Ben80997]

is it normal to not get a rhythm right away and have to practice it for a very long time?

[MrKokss]

@Ben80997 Yes, it might take some practice. Just start slow and work your way up. :)

[kidmecha]

[chill3n456]

[bluflashinglights]

[58LP]

Excellent stuff as usual! and very well presented, well done fella :)

[jammersession]

Marty is fucking awsome

[cliffkast]

"And that's a whole new... little... shimmering... beautiful... morsel... of sound." 3:57

Absolutely brilliant!

[AlchemyMN]

His guitar is a Heritage H535:

Sounds great, doesn't it?

[saithaku]

\m/

this guy is an awesome teacher....and a quick witted funny guy....

and very well made video...excellent video quality too.

I couldnt ask for more.......i've downloaded all his videos.....

And WHAT THE FUCK???? HOW COULD 53 PEOPLE RATE THIS WITH A THUMBS DOWN????

JUST HOW???

The H chord joke had me in splits!!!

Marty you are the man!!!

no....seriously.

[chessinfantry]

@saithaku get off his nuts 

[ollybolly01]

what guitar is that

[09kitty23]

record label worthy marty!!! make this guy sign!! better than most pop artist these days

[09kitty23]

camera melt!! XD

[nappyroots89]

SUPERB LESSON!!! buuuut....

question: don't those 3 notes make up a m6 chord instead of a 7th?

[PianoDave14]

@nappyroots89 they are basically the same thing!

an Amaj7 is also a Cmin6 (you just take the mediant/2nd note of the chord/ "3rd" and make it the root)

[elbraymundo]

It's so advanced the camera would melt? XD

[jmc9696]

Marty You make us melt

[257dk]

you're definitely high!!! but amazing

[257dk]

you're definitely high!!! but amazing

[Unknown3560236]

[myjsallday44]

GET THE FUNK OUT OF MY FACE

[HoraceLime]

Funk made easy and fun! Thanks for the video! Finally, I can forgive the State of Alabama for giving my Pa the chair and sending Ma to the nut house!

[guitarmessiah95]

[skatecauterets]

[omgposthardcore]

@skatecauterets lol i know dude u move the 7shape down one fret, thats what you get

[JaredLamanna]

Are there any good exercises to strengthen hammering on with two fingers?

[hellraisingirondude]

H chord is the shit xD

[juanolazabal]

[finalglory00]

THANK YOU SIR MARTY!!!!

[glxblt]

Took me a while to learn this properly since I'm a beginner, but now I can wow everyone (who isn't In The Know) just by varying this a little and changing the chords. Also, wah pedal.

[TheJonhyWest]

OH FUC* I REALLY GOT TO BUY AN ELECTRIC GUITAR; I CANNOT KEEP PLAYING THIS THINGS ON A CLASSICAL GUITAR...

[TheJonhyWest]

@TheJonhyWest Lol you should see my class.

Almost everyone plays an instrument, some of them since they were born.

We "WOW" everytime xD

[Bluestarman1]

Thanks for all the Funk Marty.

Really enjoy all you vids, you're a natural teacher.

[TheTega00]

i´ve been playing guitar for almost 20 years, always learning alone, tooke me a lot of work to do it with out a teacher and from those tedious little books. This is great, thanks to great people like you i have learn more in the last 2 years than ever.

Dario from Argentina

[TheJonhyWest]

@deadenear It works for me !!

[papachocolateman]

@deadenear NOT IF YUOT UGLY

[hypatience]

@deadenear unless you're a woman, then it doesn't.

[dontxmatter]

@deadenear sadly no... guitar players these days are a dime a dozen, and girls know that. there are a few that still dig guitar players but cute ones are hard to find. at least thats what its like around here in so cal... where everybody is an "artist" of some kind.

[elbraymundo]

@deadenear ask the three girls from last night ;p

[hotlanta71]

@deadenear yes

[funguy4utube]

@deadenear Less and less as you get older ... from my personal experience .. but that is the main reason we all do it initially (same as the Beatles claimed) ... personal expression is on the list somewhere below .. and as you get older and laid less .. it actually becomes personal entertainment .. and jamming with friends .. so be it .. it is all good. pg

[KinkyCuban]

@deadenear also H chords melt electronics

[Th3Apollo7]

@deadenear yeah bra the ladies love it!! :D

[Johnoooh]

[chazyfizle]

[GAMVM]

[fallios]

this guitar is fucking ugly.

[Soccasteve]

@fallios what are you talking about? Marty is a tasty piece of man meat. I think someone is jealous...

[DonDogg]

why would people dislike this? seriously?

[AngelDeLaMuerta]

Amazing !! OH !

[nickys15]

for some reason this lesson reminds me of red house by jimi hendrix

[CopMovi]

@nickys15

[jacominiman]

Man, you're awesome! =D

[samit71]

[destihado1]

[ThePabo]

@destihado1 Earth, Wind, and Fire, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimi Hendrix, and what MrDbrame said.

[alexboii]

[handjobdan]

Nice playing. Great tone. Fluid instruction. Good Humor. Nice set. Useful info!

but be very careful, because between 5:49-6:15 of this video, you're dangerously

close to playing "Footloose: by Kenny Loggins.

Please be careful,

There are young people watching.
