I Walk The Line Intro Lesson.

[AnarchyKidOwns]

dude ive bein goin through lessons but ur the only one that actually helped at all

[step2ice]

The Intro is doen well, I'm stuck on the last part, the rhythm guitar.

I can't really see where your fingers go there.

[TelecasterFreak93]

@step2ice Just take an E chord.

Then hit the E string then the D and the A then the D again then the E.

Thats the pattern.

[step2ice]

@TelecasterFreak93

Thank you, I will practice the picking there at first.

I'm still far from getting real rhythm into that with that picking method though.

That last thing is the melodic part you bring in there like when you sing "I get a close..." and the stuff you do after that , would be cool if you could tell me what frets / notes you're hitting there.

[macdogma1]

You make it look easy. This was very helpful. Now my friend and I will have something to practice this weekend. Thanks so much!

[Haole37]

mine always sounds like 6 seconds shorter yours goes longer and i dont know why??

[charlindabob]

TelecasterFreak93, ignore the negative comments. None of them have tried to help others learn and damn it, it's free. What more could anyone ask? My 10 year old son learned from you. Thanks again.....Bob and son Jordan

[joedude967]

at :26 you do a double thing, im confused on that part because it seems like you add an extra strum..

[trisrock226]

dude you have the same same guitar as mine. And the same sound. Cool...

[Lunarmoonbase2]

Learn to alternate pick dude.

[TelecasterFreak93]

@Lunarmoonbase2 This was a while ago and I wasn't so experience as I am now. Also, this song does not require alternate picking. So, please don't criticize. Thanks.

[Lunarmoonbase2]

@TelecasterFreak93 Dude, that was a suggestion, not a criticism. Alternate picking should always be used and to not use it is bad form ( even though a lot of people do it, including some famous bands). Once you have alternate picking down, then playing any lead becomes a lot easier.

[Mii450]

@Lunarmoonbase2 yea.... i'm a beginner on guitar right now........ my teacher wants me to alternate pick...... why am i supposed to be doing this again? the string sounds funny if i do an upstroke.

[thepinballwizard64]

Thank you. Awesome lesson, I've only been playing for two days, and now I can play this amazing song.

[AlamoCityCards]

Thanks for taking the time to put out the lesson.......i'm just getting started and appreciate the help!

[TelecasterFreak93]

@AlamoCityCards Of course. Any time.

[ReALaxeman1]

Great lesson, thanks. Got it pretty quick and it sounds great. Cheers!

[TelecasterFreak93]

@ReALaxeman1 Thanks!

[Injun2010]

Thanks for the lesson man. Take no notice of the negative people and their stupid comments. At least you take the time to post the videos which do help others. I think it is great that you and others take the time and effort to help people just starting out on guitar. Rock on.

[MsSweetDiana]

You did a wonderful job...Thank you so much for teaching..........:)

[ichdotcom4]

you´re an idiot .. ! ..you must play an western guitar not a E- Guitar ..-.- it´s johnny cash man !

[TelecasterFreak93]

@ichdotcom4 What are you talking about? Johnny Cash's lead guitarist played this exact same brand of guitar, Just it was a Fender Esquire and it didn't have the pickup I have. Anyway, Don't call me an idiot. I have more knowledge than you of Mr. Cash apparently.

[avataraang1974]

thanx. After learning this my wife decided I was capable of learning the guitar and I can go for lessons. You were real easy to follow.

[g2wife]

thanks!

[elhammerhand]

great help cheers!

[bigdaddydrake26]

Nice people, I don't understand why anyone would call you an @ss*ole for trying to help people learn to play. I appreciate the help. Do you think you could send me written instructions just like you explained it on your video

[TelecasterFreak93]

@bigdaddydrake26

The tabs are in the video description, man.

[bigdaddydrake26]

Nice simple instructions... I'll be watching for more instructions. Just my pace brother.

[TheDesertsItalian]

You people NEED to put walk the line INTRO

[swatpro100]

this helped me alot Thanks

@(^_^)@

[johnnyjaramone]

DUDE,great lesson,but you ARE missing one part !!!

[99skullgirl]

oh wow amazing playing, i will subscribe :) my parents are AMAZED and i owe it to ya. THNK U SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!

p.s. I have the exact same guitar XD

[TelecasterFreak93]

Thankz!

[blackmaltcoffee]

Hey thanks, thats pretty cool :) Helps me very much.

[EJH1962]

great lesson man more Johnny Cash Lessons would be great

[789mopedman]

Dude your a fucking dick, leave the dude alone, you odbviously dont know how to play the song or you wouldnt be watching his video to try and teach your sorry ass how to play.

[MrMontonman]

great post thanks

[TelecasterFreak93]

I think you are mistaken, I did not miss a part of the lesson. I explained every aspect of the intro. Calling me an an asshole isn't being much a mature person, now is it?

What you could do is ask me to explain something that maybe you didn't understand, I would be glad to help. And if its a waste of time, why are you watching it in the first place?

[watcher45678]

the waste of time and ashole part was supposed to be in a sarcastic voice as in joking, forgot to put that in there sorry, okay well could you explain the part at like 3:26 i didnt see that explained in the video sorry

[maddyblue100]

@TelecasterFreak93 can you do the rooster from alice in chains?

[TelecasterFreak93]

@maddyblue100 Um. Idk. Its not really in my style, per se.

[marinzg97]

thanks! Good cover!

[med49659]

I also am a beginner at 67 yrs young and it helped me to understand a lot better the way you showed it and it worked just fine, Have you anymore vidios that will help newbies to learn like myself, done a good job and thanks for your time..........Larry

[TonyTheDriver100]

Good lesson but I think you sneaked a bit in under cover of dark - thank you for the advice and the challenge.

[nussemag]

-

Love it. Gooood Woork. =)

[bobb12381]

hey do you recomened the fender squire tl

thanks

[TelecasterFreak93]

Hey there! Its a great guitar, yes! What I also recommend is that you get some Elixir Electric guitar strings, great sounding! And run your Tele through some kind of tube amp to get that good, clean vintage sound.

[bobb12381]

ok thanks i have just bought a fender sidekick 25 reverb i was talking to lerb yesterday he said i should buy flat wound strings to get the best luther perkins sound ?

[TelecasterFreak93]

Well, yes. Lerb is right. Flat wound strings are what Luther used. So, definitely buy some of those. The Elixir strings are good though to achieve a Luther Perkins aswell, Especially if you play anything else country related.

[stratomaster001]

I think i figured it out..... on the last run where you end at an open E .... b4 the last lick you go back to the A string 2nd fret 3 times then.... back up to open E then E 2nd fret....then another open E...then you complete the final lick on the A and D and E strings which is the corect version???

listening to an old version of the song i am going to say the lick u actually play is the correct one!!!! besides that little lick this is the most accurate lesson i have found for this song !

[stratomaster001]

dude the whole verse you play in the end has more notes that in the lesson what are you doing differently??? i have whatched note for note and it is not the same..there is an xtra lick torwards the end....it is driving me nuts!!!

[DaMaster95]

thanks a lot, 5 stars, very easy to understand, great job

[briansummy]

Great job bro!

[xoliindzzz]

hey, so this was a really good lesson.

uhm, i wrote down the tabs for it as you were going and double checked it by watching it again. then i listened to it when you said "this is what you should've learned...." and you played the whole thing. did you add in extra stuff when you played that at the end? if you didnt, then im screwin up somewhere. could you please send me your tabs for this song? thank you (:

[TonyTheDriver100]

Ah, you spotted that too - oh well, if you keep practicing you'll get there in time - I wish there had been YouTube 45 years ago when I started, I might be good by now!

Keep playing

[YoCupcake]

wow awsome lesson thanks you helped me learn a new song :) 5 star :)

[Knuspermuesli90]

Nice turtorial

Some Tabs would Probably help to remember everything

By the way: Which amp are u using?Guitar sounds really cool ;-)

[TelecasterFreak93]

Thanks! I'm using a Peavey Backstage II Amp.

[bigghoss2]

dude ur awsome this is the so easy to learn.

[TelecasterFreak93]

Glad I could help!

[G0thSentFr0mH3ll]

Whats your guitar tuned at? It sounds different then mine, Mines tuned as well. I also have a thing on mine that changes the sound up its a slider knob, I am a beginner lol. Please help me.

[TelecasterFreak93]

My guitar is tuned standard.

e

B

G

D

A

E

Buy yourself a tuner if you aren't that well with tuning with your ears.

[G0thSentFr0mH3ll]

okay I got one what I meant was the toning knobs.

[TelecasterFreak93]

I really don't understand what your asking. Lol

I am tuned just standard.

[G0thSentFr0mH3ll]

idk its just I'm new and I'm using a crappy amp. Its a karoake machine. I will get a new one, maybe that will help the sound.

thanks.

[bryanthebarber]

can u tell me what letters go with what strings ( e string a sting etc..?)

[TelecasterFreak93]

Alright...

Its:

e: 1st string

B: 2nd String

G: 3rd String

D: 4th String

A: 5th String

E: 6th String

[alexmiller1992]

you made this really easy for me. thanks!

[TelecasterFreak93]

No prob! Anytime! Thanks!

[G0thSentFr0mH3ll]

Can you tell me what strings to hit with the pic, I am a beginner big time, or can you email me the notes? Its hard for me to see near the base of the guitar all I can see is what your doing at the stock.

[TelecasterFreak93]

I'll PM you the tabs, bro. Its REALLY simple, So don't sweat.

[XxSexyXPartyxX]

[TelecasterFreak93]
