Well in my 25 years experience as a teacher, I've always been sure of what I'm showing people. If you sound too hesitant or appear to be guessing at times, then the pupil can't always feel that the info being given out can be relied upon. You aren't exactly playing what was the original. That's why I only teach people to play their own adapted technique as no one can play like anybody else no matter how hard they try.

@TheRedstratman Congratulations, and more power to you. But I don't care about any of that. When I start charging money for lessons, then maybe I'll be concerned about the ethics of guitar instruction (I doubt it, but maybe). No one is forced to watch my videos or play anything the way I play it. The great thing about YouTube is you can find dozens of different ways to play Waiting on a Friend and choose the one you like.

Aint too sure this guy's got his facts right. If it's lesson on how to play a definite song then learn to play it first. Cut the crap & do it properly.

[privettricker]

@TheRedstratman Sorry, no idea what you're talking about.

[Gitaaroverlast]

That a very pretty guitar! What is it?

[privettricker]

@Gitaaroverlast That's a Gibson J200.

[privettricker]

@cheezervvvvv Hey, I have an idea. Why don't you go and read tabs instead of watching my lessons? Tabs don't talk at all.

[Yumoshrub]

Awesome! Easy to follow and good sounding lesson. Much appreciated! Keep em' coming. Peace.

I don't understand or care what redstratman was saying about your lesson, because this sounds perfectly accurate. Great instruction and thanks for showing all those hammer-ons. Thanks for taking the time to show everybody how to play this tune.

[raulishnikov]

@privettricker As much as i'm concern i luv your videos, can't play anything yet but wish you were here (almost) but i'm very grateful for your excellent videos, and that you have a bunch of the Stones, altough english is not my primary language i understand them perfectly. You are like a Guitar Buddah enlighting this simple mortal in the path of stones Nirvana... so ignore that jelous teacher just trollin in your channel
