  • Awesome lesson. Thanks!

  • coooooooooooooool

  • simple and useful, thanks.

  • Beautiful tune. Very catchy - you should write a song based on it.

  • thank you or these lessons, some people are posing crap and usually that's all one sees, as people satisfied are not incluned to post,

    thank you for these chords, and also for the hendrix chords, they will really help me, as i generally find it hard to read tabs or notes, i need to see what to do, and you did that, :)

  • . I have a question though. I play lead guitar in my high school jazz band and we play a piece that contains several suspended chords. Ok, so there are chords that resemble. Bb(13) and Bb(13) sus. As well as Ab(13), Db(13) etc. So my question is how can i be certain i can determine the difference between their sound and how it should be played? I see in the video that you hammer onto sus then back to major. So does the same concept apply when i play these chords? oh and the piece is Manteca.

  • @skatarest77 D*** string

  • @Sh3lz123 all you have to do is count 4 degrees of C - c..d..e..f... add the 2nd or 4th to the a string. and not worry about the e being played b.c the high e string is taking care of it.

  • man you surely forgot to explain WHAT A SUS CHORD IS!!! what is its degrees??? i mean i know no thanks to you but for people that are looking to find out, dont you think you should explain it a bit more than just " add your 4th finger and take off your 2nd finger" dude???
