How long have you been playing? Your DADGAD playing and instruction inspired me to pick up a second acoustic to try it out! You're awesome! God's blessed you in an awesome way, and thanks for sharing on Youtube!

[Ashlyn1634able]

God has given you talent girl this is absolutely beautiful.

[DaughertyMusic]

Beautiful job. I absolutely love it!

[Kyledutton]

Bravo Bravo. that song was pure Amazing :D

[kulmuck]

great DADGAG original, love it. I'd cut my left leg off to play as good as you. Yep'' you are the guitar master. One question ? the nice tone I'm hearing, is it tone-wood from the guitar or the strings your using. Nice choice of music ( inspirational-worship )

[GuitarMaster2207]

@kulmuck  It's a spruce/rosewood guitar, with Elixir medium gauge Polywebs, and i'm plugged through an Ibanez amp (probably the biggest tone contributor)

[mjt11860]

@GuitarMaster2207 what brand & model? very nice composition & playing!

[chantry]

are you a girl or guy :|

[GuitarMaster2207]

@chantry thanks for the awkward question. i'm a girl.

[spyd3r108]

wow! very nicely written! u got mad talent!

[mtallicuhh]

wow that is a beautiful song.. where can I learn how to play that at dude? can u tell me where a reliable tab is on the internet?

[GuitarMaster2207]

i haven't tabbed it yet. it's one that i wrote so i doubt anyone else probably would have tabbed and posted it yet. it's in DADGAD tuning if that helps at all.

[MrTaills]

a great melody

Thanks for sharing

Eddie

[artnmusic909]

Beautiful song and excellent musicianship: I loved it.

[henrygit1]

Thanks for the DADGAD lessons. You should keep on composing fingerstyle-pieces, since it 's not easy and you have talent.

[Loyal2law]

Faved =3!

[arunic]

Beautiful

[cajun5150]

[Shinichi1213]

WOW! what a lovely music it is! i wish i could play that way.. You're such a blessed person.. Praise God! ^____^

[What3verz]

Sounds like Phil Keaggy, too.

[What3verz]

Hey, are there any guitar videos or guitar books that you can recommend? Quite frankly, I want to play guitar just like how you're doing here. It reminds me of Jennifer Knapp. I can't help but wonder "How'd she learn to play like that?". I know a few chords but nothing much.

[rob4life1963]

Oh man...what a blessing! I can't believe I missed this one when you first posted it! Awesome! :)

[JohnnyBongo2]

Jordan, What an awesome song. You are an amazing musician. God has blessed you with an awesome talent!

Walk With the King,

Craig "JohnnyBongo"

[GuitarMaster2207]

[concretecullen]

[cruzyj]

I love the 2:14 ending, yep Tommy rules

[gotmilk12789]

great job man... wish i was that good... you should try to manipulate my songs lol keeps up on the good ear

[mcdrum42]

Sounds great man. What kind of amp are you playing out of here?

[GuitarMaster2207]

ibanez

[Tayacoustic16]

Thats a truly God given talent. Beautiful song by the way.

[hldnmgrn]

That is really beautiful Jordan. Fingerstyle with a pick !! yes that is hard to do. Thanks for the DADGAD vids too !!!

[kimhamm]

Jordan God gave you the gift of music. I enjoy getting on line and hearing you play and have learned so much from your tutorials. God bless you heart sweety..kim

[kr4him]

Yes, I would buy your CD online, or in the stores, or with green eggs and ham. God Bless You.

[GuitarMaster2207]

hey thanks. i am trying to make that happen. keep up with myspace(dot)com/jordanselfmini­stries

[kr4him]

Thank you very much Jordan. After watching some of your other videos including the tutorials I was anxious to see an original tune from you, because I knew it would be good. It is VERY good. I pray that you will be in the center of God's will for your life and submit to the indwelling presence and guiding of the Holy Spirit for your life. As you do, you will become more like Jesus. Please guard your heart and don't let anything become more important than Jesus. He will give you much wisdom.

[USEOFFORCEENT]

Awesome... The music is beautiful!!

-J.

[capo420420]

Wonderful .. 5 stars from me ..

I also just watched all your dadgad video tutorials ..

which .. you may find a bit of a surprise after you see my video's haha .. but .. i play a lot of open C and a B flat tuning of my own creation haha ..

Another tuning i learned from Janis Ian is simple.

Drop D then capo only the 5 bass strings on the second fret .. then tweak the high e and b up a tiny bit .. you'll hear it when its right .. just play typical chords .. most of my CD is done in that tuning.

[capo420420]

ACK !! error .. capo only the FOUR bass strings .. dunno why i typed 5 haha .. sorry ..

jeff

[lhatslc]

You are great! I love your music, thanks for sharing!

[GuitarMaster2207]

thanks.

[neyacoustics]

That was very peaceful and inspirational...Amazing Job...did you uses standard tuning or another kind?

Amazing Job and God Bless!!!

[GuitarMaster2207]

DADGAD tuning is what i used.

[KarateChickKimmi]

sickk, I used to use those

[KarateChickKimmi]

hey hawt stuff! Just wondering what strings you use?? THANKS :)

[GuitarMaster2207]

elixir nano's

[rob4life1963]

Very beautiful Jordan! I haven't been online in a while and have missed this...thank you for what you do.....Robert

[michalis66]

[nteddyb]

[fragileafterall]

oh my gosh. this is sick. lol. this is acoustic beauty lol go taylor 114s XD

[voipertinger]

I love it!

How long did it take you to write it?

[GuitarMaster2207]

a few hours.

[jcruth1]

Jordan-

This is as good as anything I've heard of the same genre. You should be very proud of this tune! By the way, the hybrid picking is the style you're using here, both flat pick and fingerpicking. Anyway, I enjoy listening to you and your commentary! Please keep it up! God bless!

[arunic]

Hey Jordan, I've just been going through your videos and wow! Your an inspiration! God has given you an amazing gift and I just see Him with a big grin when he listens to you play. God Bless.

[aggiekaelan2016]

Thats really pretty! :O)

[guitarstudent11]

you have alot of talent that was really good

i like the hybrid picking

[GuitarMaster2207]

i don't know exactly what hybrid picking is. can you explain it to me?

[thebone218]

Jordan, that was absolutely beautifull. We need more originals from you. You truely have a gift.

[WatchingStuffIsGood]

Good job, very nice.

You know you could try this on that yobi contest.

[Zoot3D]

Jordan, that was amazing man!

[TheCrispenator]

Great tune! Happy like 'here comes the sun' with some tommy influence.

[lethug21]

absolutely beutiful

[curioduo75]

Very, very nice!!!!!!

Do you mind putting together one of your training videos on this? It's really, really great!!!!!!

[GuitarMaster2207]

Hi, it's Jordan everyone. quick question, and I'm not plugging or anything. I've had people ask me if i've done any recordings they could buy. with all the interest in it i'm thinking of doing a 5 track acoustic cd for purchase online. the funds would help me go to nashville this fall for meetings with publishing companies. would that be something you'd buy if it were available? if there is a good response I'll set studio time and make a recording. just sort of surveying here. God bless

Jordan

[curioduo75]

Yes, I would ... if only because you're pretty talented and this would help you get to the next level.

[guitarstudent11]

i would buy the track by the way

[Critdizzle]

AWFUL!!1! I mean that as the word was originally intended to be used, meaning full of awe. This is one of the most awful videos I have ever seen. Absolutely, completely AWFUL! :) About as good as I thought your original work would be. ROFLCAKES@ " the 'guitarmaster' username was meant to be a joke..."

I hope to hear more original music from you in the future. Peace.

[GuitarMaster2207]

it really was a sarcastically-used screenname. i'm not full of myself. lol. i'm not a "guitar master", 'cause that title would put me in the Tommy Emmanuel category, which i'm not worthy to even sneeze in the presence of. lol

[VMkoe]

Really Beautiful!

[birddoggarton]

Hey....Its been a while.

Sounds Awesome. GOOD JOB !

Thanks and I really enjoyed that.

[DAVIDDAMIENR]

This has some Great Moments.

Very Soulful.

Keep up the good work.

DDR

[skengeboy]

Oh my God (is it okey to say so in such a Christian-specked company like this?), incredibly talented! I was just sitting on my bed, fiddling around with something in just this mood, but i got bored and didn't make any good progress. I found this video a couple of minutes later, and now my inspiration is back again completely. :D Very beautiful. I especially like the chord progression!

[GuitarMaster2207]

thanks! i'm glad you were reinspired in your creativity! ps: say whatever you like, i don't judge really. just like hearing from you guys

[skengeboy]

Yeah, I think people should be able to believe in whatever they like without having other people moralize about it and pick on others. If God is your source of creativity, so be it, keep developing and grow!

[theuppercut]

that's amazing...

did you make tabs for that?

not that i would steal it,

it just sounds like something amazing to play to play friends..

5 stars i love it!

[russelltbrooks]

excellent! i can appreciate that...very nice...keep it up!

[monkeyguita]

that was awesome.u definitely have talent.God has really blessed u.keep it up.i really enjoy listening to the vidoes you put up.

[hughman174]

so beautiful. playing the guitar is so soothing and relaxing. praise God for the talents He gives us

[loganradd]

That is truly a wonderful song you have written.

I enjoy your videos a lot. I am a very average guitar player who is a fan of a lot of guitar oriented music. With your interest in SCC, who I think is great, have you ever listened to another Christian artist named Phil Keaggy? He has put out a lot of fine acoustic albums through the years. There are several Youtube videos of him also. Keep up the good work. It is appreciated.

[Jer1400]

Awesome, dude. :)

[someonenotyou]

B-E-A-UITIFULLLLLLLL :D
