Go to http://yourguitarsage.com/ to find out how to get a free guitar ebook that will have you playing guitar today!!! This guitar lesson vid shows you how to play Long December, by ­­Counting Crows. It shows you the chords, strumming technique and style. For more guitar lessons, see my other free tutorials. For original and cover music by me, Erich, go to http://www.myspace.com/erichandreas . Since I'm so busy making new video tutuorial lessons all the time and teaching guitar, I probably won't have time to answer individual questions regarding guitar. Other videos cover beginner, advanced and intermediate levels. I teach rock, blues, country and just about any other style on electric or acoustic. If you can't find your answer from the resources at the website above, keep digging into my vids, and I'm sure you will find your answer. Keep practicing!!!

  • No problem, and I don't mean to come off the wrong way or anything. The truth is I thought I was smart enough to tell you how to do your job, when I'm really an idiot cause I don't even know that much (like how to change it to a C#)...so forgive me.....Yeah please show us some crows...maybe Thorn in my pride, or jealous....thanks for everything,

    Z

  • No bro. No problem. You were correct. It's just a different approach.  I appreciate the input.

    :)

  • Dude I really appreciate what you do...I know it means a lot to a lot of aspiring players out there, but with all due respect....Do you play anything without a capo? It seems like every song I want to learn that you have on here requires a capo..(which i dont have).. so I have to just play it lower...I am pretty sure that when they play it (and I've seen them live a few times) they don't use a capo....just a thought....oh yeah and can you put some Black Crowes on here (sanz capo)

  • Thanks zmahaney. The Capo is more for you all. I can play bar chords all day long, but too bar chords don't allow you to "noodle" across the fretboard. Acoustic typically resonate better with open chords too. So to answer your question. Yes, I play a lot without a capo, but to make the songs easy for folks to play, I suggest a capo. If I'm playing a C, capo'd at the 1st fret, just bar chord a C#. Love the Crowes! We'll see, I have a LONG list :)

see all

  • thank you!

  • @zmahaney u guys really need to stop complaining about the Capo. just go to a store and get one for 5 bucks..it really cannot be this hard to do

  • ty for the song. and nice hair

  • @yourguitarsage i noodle bar chords. like 7ths with extensions and 2nds sound great ( like a 9 but no 7)

  • The two measures of G in the verse, to be more clear.

  • Could someone fill me in on what is going on with the two measures of G? I'm still too inexperienced to figure out that pattern on my own.

  • hey is there any way you can teach me how to play the accordion part on guitar

  • I have a question.I purchased the E book but how do I purchase the charts to specific songs such as this?

  • Excellent lesson. Thanks!

  • was wondering if you could do a lesson on the song something to believe in by poison.........
