  • a quarter million people were asking for the electric version

  • @gunniesack if each person that make up that quarter million group is willing to send me a $1 donation each, I think I could be convinced to do it ;)

  • My dads friend has that EXACT guitar what model and brand is it?

  • @HeyItsCoop It's an Ovation Celebrity Deluxe :)

  • I love the way you teach your lessons! Would you please do one on the Eagles song " Love will keep us alive "? Thank You, Dee

  • @Dedes41 I'd love to, but can't. The Eagles have threatened to shut down my channel if I posted any more of their tunes. I had to remove the ones I already had. :(

  • Nice but you're not fingering the C#m7 or G#7 correctly. The C you play on the 3rd string of the C#m7 should be flatted to Bb (flat 7 makes a 7th chord, 7th=B). I have no idea why a 7th chord requires a flatted 7th and not a natural. Similar on the G#7, the G you play on the 4th string should be an F (the flat 7th). And what you said was a Bb chord is a really a B which is right (B root second fret A string). Clapton seems to mute the first string on the D. :) Got a couple ideas from you, Thnx!

  • Congrats on a million... Nice vid,

    (although your mouth says "Bb", while your hands say "B").

  • Wasn't the chord you described at the start a B not a Bm 7. Confused, great vid's by the way. Thanks

  • That's a damn nice guitar

  • I think if you had not existed 3 years ago I probably did not start playing the guitar at this time.

    ( I am not sure if my sentence is correct but i hope to be understood )

    Thanks From France !

  • The first chord that your playing is C#m not C#m7.

  • i love it abit tricky though, needs  practicing

    Thanks Mojo

  • @ThreeChordGuitar sweet. i just got an ovation celebrity stantard. i was trying out that exact guitar but it seemed to flashy for me
