    Fantastic. You've earned another subscriber here. I've been trying to find someone showing how to play the sort of muffled acoustic guitar part from this song that you only hear on the long version are the beginning of the music video. Can you upload a lesson on that part? You can hear it at the beginning of the music video and ending just after he coughs while Pat Smear is sitting in the background next to Lisa's piano.

    Hello, do you think you would be able to explain also the strumming for beginners? I am trying, but it definitely does not sound as good as you! :)

    • @mtdnelson
      @mtdnelson 2 місяці тому

      I have a few suggestions that might help. You can try slowing down the video in UA-cam. Pay attention to which strings he is hitting with the pick, and which are down and up strokes. Tap your foot to help yourself stay in time. Also, notice that he is sometimes resting his right palm on the strings a little, and releasing the fingers on the left. These two things mute the strings and have a percussive effect. Practice it slowly, just on one chord, until you're happy with it, before moving on to adding chord changes. Finally, don't worry too much about getting everything exactly right - it doesn't matter if you don't hit exactly the same strings every time as long as the timing sounds good.

    Hey Bill. So for fun, I just got a new guitar, it's a Martin........Smith😂 $80 new off of eBay. I have no problem handling a guitar but I visit these open-mics (nobody knows that I play/sing) and there's all this super expensive gear but they can't play or sing worth a damn😂 So I had to set the guitar up and it plays and sounds great (I know because I also have nice stuff). I plan to rock-up with this thing bare (no case) and see what kind of a reaction I get😂 I have also been experimenting with alternatives to PA systems. I am sitting in a 5,000 sq-ft factory as I type and I have a couple of W-King (unfortunate name) D80 speakers and they are putting-out some pretty respectable volume. The cool thing is that they are rechargeable (USB). I have had them running music, full-volume for 3 hours and I'm on one LED of battery indicator out of 3. Not using the Bluetooth, mind (too much latency). I also like some bottom-end and so I plan to grab an 18" sub that will also be battery powered. If it sounds garbage, it will never leave home but I'm curious. Might grab a couple more W-King D80s because they are inexpensive and when I opened one up, I was impressed with the build quality. Darn you, I just discovered your Stuck-on-You lesson and now I can't stop playing it....don't even _like_ the song 🤣😂. Many thanks, buddy👍

    • @billvillamusic3625
      @billvillamusic3625 6 місяців тому

      That’s awesome! Oh man, my gear has changed so much since this video. I’m using some Mackie speakers now and my pedalboard has changed a few times. I’m always messing with different gear … I believe that you should be a student to your craft, but also to your gear. Too many players don’t understand their gear. I’m a carpenter by trade and knowing my tools is essential 👍
