[rv724]

Thanks..i was getting bored at first cuz i didnt know what else to learn but then i saw this and now i culd so much more things :) just difficult at first then it gets easier.

[fcoll9123]

Is the high e supposed to be ringing out on the e11,e major and the e sus 4? I dont understand how that is supposed to happen.

[awfguitar]

I practice all the time but my hammerons are still horrible.

[s1monz]

Sounds a bit like Everything You want by Vertical Horizon

[diegomanx321]

sounds like under the bridge

[luke506crash]

similar to the technique used in the intro of "say it aint so" by weezer

[Soldier1287]

It sounds like Red Hot Chili Peppers

[milesdj2]

That was an awesome lesson... opened up a lot of ideas!

[ewd31989]

you dah man dave



[sp6583958]

nice~!



[gunsnrosescovers]

Thanks for the Video

[astrofireball]

Thanks, you are really helpful :) All the best!

[lickburner48]

very nice sounding but what i cant grasp is how do you know to got to those chords from eachother i mean i know my theory a lil bit and know that those are in the key but is it just creativity? or what?

[Darkmetiusranger]

Is this guitar good for beginners  [BEHRINGER GPKAGS722BK]

[PunkRockCovers]

@Darkmetiusranger

Nope, Behringer sucks. They can only make good headphones lol.. if you are beginner with a small budget go for Epiphone, Cort, Yamaha, Squier Ibanez (For some metal), that are some good guitar brands, you can also have a look on Thomann.

[Joymenomore]

AUW! My fingers Q.Q

[brikesh987]

Thanks you're an amazing guru..I learn a lot from your vedio, please post more spicey rhythm practices

[kickedback67]

Hey Dave, since this is about sharing I thought I'd share something that helped me. I normally play the A chord with one finger barred, I've seen lots of other people do the same. That being said, it won't work with your progression, so.... because of large fingers the index, middle, ring finger is just complicated to play clean. But I found if I use middle, ring, pinky, it's much easier, it's a bit different than I've seen anyone else use, thought I'd share.

Rock On

[H057IL3]

Who won the see-through strat?

[OrcMageRocker]

he is coming down really hardo n the g string xD sorry a bit childish :P

[frizzlefrazzle888]

how come its intermediate yet you spend so much time telling us how to mute E string when playing E bar chord which isnt THAT easy for any newbie anyway? (one of all those irrationalities here)

[Slash28ACR]

This dude is the best NLG tutor. By far, he's like.. the cool dude that you want to learn from. Rock on good people!

[mpalin11]

wow, I didn't realise my hamme-ons were this sucky! I will practise this from now on! Thank you David!

[hayatemishi]

that's what you call INTERMEDIATE.

[Brevan23]

@hayatemishi are you saying its beginner?

[manyikchan]

[fitriderms]

your awsome, learning alot from you.

[EpiCasino198]

His face makes me mad for some reason.

[melindaedes]

The first time I see that tatoo on his arm! Now I like him even more, if that is possible at this point.....

[bbmarcon]

Hey dude - great videos - But, I DARE you to do a video without your hat on...

[ncaadan]

Great lesson, David! Thanks for being the sherpa on my musical journey.

[theholystapler]

[rucine]

great as always ... but i have the feeling since marty left, rock on got a little less on the vids ?!?! 

[star4blue]

Fantastic lesson absolutlely good explain. more of this pleeeeasse !!!!

[4drumsticks]

sounds really good!

[Dan727]

This is the hardest thing I've tried so far.

[itsmrcriz]

@Dan727 how long u been playing bud?

[Dan727]

@itsmrcriz A little over a year. I can play barre cords, but just the Emaj alone is difficult, forget about hitting the hammer on with any accuracy.

[itsmrcriz]

@Dan727 hay me too!

i been playin for like a year and one week haha.

any ways it just takes practise man.

just hammer on that bitch till you get it.

[bigtex9265]

you gotta press hard! hahaha

[cadrician]

Nice and simple!

[iaminbetweendays]

Beautiful progression! Nice lesson.

[aleyhetfield]

Whats the meaning of KEY A MAJ ???????????

[pinoyhellahoy]

@aleyhetfield 3 sharps

[aleyhetfield]

@pinoyhellahoy 3 sharps :(

now whats that .. listen im just a beginer so telme in easy way ..

[pinoyhellahoy]

@aleyhetfield umm ohkay. The key of A major is the scale in which the sclae begins on A. they key has three sharps in the scale f#, c#, and g#. this therefore follows the whole step-whole step- half step- whole step- whole step- whole step- half step.

this starting on A will be A-B-C#-D-E-F#-G#-A. if you look at a piano and look at the pattern you'll understand it. it makes life easier if you learn for some music theory while you watch these guys vids

[aleyhetfield]

@pinoyhellahoy Woowww Ur awesome ..

[sjutube6]

Great lesson David! Gorgeous progression

[rosali294]

[Kotiga]

[fattywithchips]

I like how 360p is better quality than 480p

[DCooper720]

@fattywithchips video yes, audio no

[HollyTheFireNinja]

How is it so easy for him to play the barres? It sounds so clean too. It's difficult for me to even play the B chord no matter how much I practice. :(

[tenken1981]

@HollyTheFireNinja dw man, you'll get there ;)

[kontekzt]

no matter how hard i press with my index finger, b string is always muted.. wtf

[treunlneiss]

@kontekzt its not how hard u press down its just u have to find the one spot where u can roll ur finger back a little and have all the strings ring out..

[fjrsm]

Nice Taylor =)

[dee123456989]
