  • Poor your shit sucks, you don't teach anything. This is the second video I've looked at that was supposed to teach me how to play, all it is is you playing, and telling me to watch another video. You dont tell me a single note or fret. Too drawn out. SHITS WEAK!

  • he should use his pinkie finger instead of the ring finger

  • this guy is seriously a joke everyone. he literally has never taken guitar lessons, or know anything about the proper way to finger an instrument (sorry if that sounds dirty). PLEASE do not play like this. as other comments say, you really need to use your pinky, and play the notes correctly for that matter. this guy basically taught himself how to play and is trying to teach everyone else how to suck at playing.

  • @ilovethebeatles1998 I prefer the skin flute

  • DEAR ALL ROCK AND NIRVANA FANS, FEBRUARY 20TH IS KURT COBAIN'S BIRTHDAY. THAT DAY WE WILL ALL VISIT THE "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT" VIDEO, LIKE IT, AND WISH HIM A HAPPY BIRTHDAY. NOT ONLY WILL IT PAY BACK RESPECT TO HIM, IT WILL ALSO HELP NIRVANA GET TO THE TOP OF YOUTUBE AGAIN. THUMBS UP THIS COMMENT AND REPOST THIS ON ANY NIRVANA OR ANY ROCK VIDEO

  • @jaydogg408 dude just cause you cant play smoke on the water or any song on guitar or bass doesnt mean you have to be a duche

  • @123Jonde Yes, because ALL guitarists should play in exactly the same way. There is no art in music, after all.

  • your a great teacher man my band has sounded alot better ever since i found you

  • That fingering technique he's using is BAD bad - don't you believe him! Using your "ring" finger a whole tone up from your "middle" finger in that progression, on those frets is seriously going to IMPEDE a beginning guitarists progress.

    Just say no, kids!

  • who'll give me fcking tabs of it

  • good

    ty man
