[superkooliodude20]

[pope182]

i wish the camera angle was better. i cant' see the fingers well.

[Utorin]

Could you write you the strumming for me? like when you are suppose to hit the fourth fret. Its very confusing.

[japinhabh15]

Really good your video!

[bleed4me101]

bro, are you bisaya??

[izAkly]

i don't know what that is but... I guess I'm not. haha

[rockalexw]

i think bisaya is the language in the province Visayans :P

___________________________ thank you for the upload

[freereg29]

[spectrescere]

[ja031692]

@bleed4me101 LOL. He's Korean. :))

[bleed4me101]

[xkayyylluuhhx]

this is kindve unclear

[yohan01]

Very nice Tutorial! Thanks.. very useful

[afben25]

good stuff man you're not a bad teacher

[cchi1812]

where did u get the tabs

[isaacwhy]

hey do you just have the chords it's by much help :D

[dsam900]

hey wats the 2nd chord when you said mute the low string? u were a bit unclear on that.

thanks!

[cafeledavid]

you shouldve just said d5 for the first chord lol

is that a taylor? sounds sweet :)

[izAkly]

nope it's not a taylor

[korban92]

Just btw if your trying to bend the last "note" on the first (d) chords in the intro with you pinky also use your ring finger

2:48

[izAkly]

sorry to hear? seems like other 21,000 views from others have benefited but not you :/ bummer..

well... if you know so much about the 'technique' you're speaking.. maybe you can make some VIDEOS teaching about those TOO so some one whos SHITTY as I can learn as well :D

I'll be looking forward for your videos!!!

[charliedip]

Can you just write out the tabs or tell us were you got them from; this helps but takes too long to watch. Thanks.

[estebanSkater]

HARD

[Soniquexonly]

A really good song I love it too bad my guitar doesn't sound that great .. :(

[annieboo111]

i love this song

[HappYuppie]

Too Hard !:( :( This song is probably one of the most beautiful switchfoot's songs !

[Davi2810]

can u please remake this video, but in a better angle in seeing where your putting your fingers, so its much easier to understand what your saying :)

thanks heaps :)

[izAkly]

sorry, don't plan to remake the video.

if you've tried making videos for tutorial you'll know how long it takes.

[carlosdrill]

Yeah man! What he said...can you remake it, and I know that it takes sometime to remake, or make videos, but on this one you don't have to explain to us anothing, just show us your fingers on the strings & frets (really fast lol) Please!

[chaoshart]

@izAkly thats because you talk alot -.- you always explain the obvious parts. . but nwei. good tutorial. just need a better angle :)

[brewersgirl100]

You are the bestest!

[dannydim14]

@brewersgirl100 not a word but yaa

[StrongBad120]

i am very confused on the end of the intro wen you lift your middle finger and your pinky, what do you mean?

[jevaldeznetzero]

How about a vid on "I still Believe" by Jeremy Camp

[izAkly]

that one's quite easy to learn

u can look up on UG

[mralx1234]

wow i've been looking forever for tabs but there arent any good ones. this helped me so much it was like having a private lesson. thanks

[samtheman6]

Dude i (brotherly)love you man. I just got an acoustic and im pretty sure u should become a tutor or somthin. Make more vids, like gaurdian angel by RJA, legitness

[izAkly]

haha brotherly<- that was funny

lol thanks for such an appreciation!!

[saehyuk]

is there a part 2?

[saehyuk]

awesome guitar!! i got a ac25/sr. the dreadnoughts are too big for me... lol

[izAkly]

ah ACs are nice too :]

I just personally prefered AD's sound haha.. but they both are gorgeous!

[c0d3r3d1989]

word on the ad's

[hajajup]

I've watched this video 2 hours nd i can't strum the intro!!! i can't understand how to strum annd when i have to use my pinky!!

[jevaldeznetzero]

Hey "izAkly", In the intro, when you hold your pinky down, if you push the string up when you hold it you will get the "izAkly"(exact) sound.

[izAkly]

lol i'm not dumb enough to pass by a little BEND. it's just that i didn't.

haha you can try bending acoustic string with your pinky and tell me how that goes :D

[jevaldeznetzero]

I was just trying to help.  Meant no disrespect

[izAkly]

nonon lol don't worry i never thought u were dissin or somethin

i just thought it was funny ahaha..

and u know what I probably should've said that at LEAST in the video so you're right :]

[jevaldeznetzero]

Kool, keep posting videos, I'm learning alot. Have you posted any Jeremy Camp songs?

[izAkly]

not tutorial ones.

The tabs aren't that hard to learn

And no one asked

[joemadly]

i tried to turn up the sound and i still dont get where to put all my fingers at

if only you record it at a viewable angle T_T

[Jaysecter]

What model breedlove is that? It is beatiful!

[izAkly]

it is AD 25 SR plus :] and thank you ^-^

[HeikiCott]

Thats great!

NOw i can play it :P

Thx

[Quentin2006]

[Vballgirl27]

how long have you been playing likw what 5,6,7 years cause you are really good  P.S. go to CREATION 08 and play there

[izAkly]

Thank you ^-^

no actually I've been playing less than 2 years haha...(for real) but I DID play violin for more than 6 years so that basic skill helped me to progress pretty quickly

creation 08 o_O? never heard..

[worldfest]

im usually too busy to watch the movie over and over so i usually tab them and look um over later...

great job...now for the second part...

:)

[JJordanSF]

[albinoblueberries]

[izAkly]

[Nomey07]

G'day..Big switchfoot fan eh,Your an awesome musician as well as a techer! Keep going,alot of people like your playing! G'day=}

[izAkly]

thanks ^^

[ketene123]

Hey man. What kind of pick is that?

[izAkly]

I use regular Fender Thin :]

[Pheb1304]

Oh my god! Im so excited I found this video. I haven't even started playing it but I've been wanting to learn this song but it looked too hard. Thanks for breaking it down and allowing beginners like me to learn it! You rock!

[izAkly]

no problem I thought it was really hard too when I started playin ^^

but it's easier than you might think so don't worry and keep it up!!!

[Flypknight]

Awesome man...great job. If you know how to play twenty four that'd be an awesome one to post cause all the tabs are wrong everywhere. keep up the good work!!

[izAkly]

Infact I just started to practice that song

haha I bought the official tab book by Hal Leonard

so I believe it's correct...

I'll try to upload it once I get it down

[djrew22]

thanks izakly for your response. hope you know the band goo goo dolls. The one who sang the "iris" from the movie "city of angels". Or if you really dont know the song 'Name' you can replace "iris' instead. hehe! hope you dont mind! I really tried to search to others but i find it so hard to learn from them. Just if you have a spare time. Thanks a lot for all the help.

[izAkly]

ah i know the band just not the song lol

btw I tried learning but the song seems very complicated

it is POSSIBLE for me to learn but the tuning is odd too lol I broke a string trying to tune for that song

I know Iris so I'll try

[djrew22]

Hi izakly! thanks so much your really a blessing! now i know how to play it. Really appreciate your effort of teaching us. Hope you dont mind if i ask do you accept request if you could show me how to play name by goo goo dolls. Thanks!

[izAkly]

lol i don't even KNOW the song but

I'll try to learn it and make a video asap!!!

thnx for such a nice comment ^^

[salamisandwhich101]

wow! ur really good! i wish i still had my guitar to try and learn!

[izAkly]
