Anyways, as always, I hope you've learned something! Let me know if there's anything I could have done better/added/removed. I love feedback, and you folks are the ones watching, so I'd best take your advice. Further more, let me know if your having trouble with any part in particular. I would love to help you dial it in.

Also, let me know if you have any requests for future tutorials! This video itself was requested, so why not give it a shot? I'd love to teach it as much as you'd like to learn it.

Thanks for watching, good luck playing!

Are you welling to teach us Little hell?!:)

[SubtleAcoustics]

@aniee866 I do really want to do something from the new album... Either Little Hell or Grand Optimist. Next up will be The Girl though!

This has been really helpful in motivating me to stick to practicing guitar. I kept telling myself I'd start and I finally have after so long of only doing it sometimes, I've been going strong for a week with hours of practice. I have a lot to learn but this has really helped. I'm having lots of trouble switching chords quickly and smoothly, but I'll just keep on practicing. This song is my ultimate beginner goal, and man is going to feel good.

@Allyourbass2212 Good to hear you're on a roll. Make sure your not always playing challenging stuff! ("learning") It's good practice to just sit down and play some easy songs too! Best of luck, and stay tuned.
