  • This is easily one of the very best Guitar lessons on Youtube--by anyone. Thanks.

  • I can't explain it but I seem to get more from your instruction than others. ( no b.s. ) I have been teaching myself ( with the help of youtube) to play the guitar for 2 1/2 years. Your strumming etc makes sense and I am adapting to it . Thanks, Oak.

  • @oaklandfla2 Thanks friend. Well, this is what I do for a living and for some time now, so figure out different ways to get your ideas across.

  • It appears that your first strum for each new note you only play half of the strings. Otherwise strumming all 6 string each time doesn't produce the same rhythm as you. Example, your first note is the E note but you only hit the first 3 strings instead of going down through all 6. Would this be correct?

  • @aquariex24 yup!

  • Spectacular lesson. I'm a total beginner and you are one of the few people who actually shows a simple, easy version of the song at hand. You are also the only person to clearly define and teach the strum pattern. THANKS!

  • @xuprmemofo I like it the way Cash plays it, Once you learn the song its hard not to stop playing it xD

  • Finally a video that's slow enough and comprehensive enough to give me confidence to try.

  • Thanks for uploading this and being awesome...
