    Tuning it down makes the strings easier to bend, which is probably the biggest reason he does that.
    Thanks for the lesson. Counting the beat would help - one two and three and four and.....

  • @Malachi_Padilla
    @Malachi_Padilla 3 роки тому +4

    Dude you have got to be precise with which strings to pluck. I’m stuck at about 6:00 trying to see the vibrations in one of the strings because you’re saying to play one way, but then you leave out a pluck or two that I can audibly notice is there, but you never said to play. I’ve been here for two hours trying to decipher which string you’re plucking. Other than that, awesome tutorial man! BTW at the beginning the picking pattern is 6-3-4-2-6-3-4
    I don’t know what you said in the video but it definitely wasn’t that.

    • @aidanhandlogten4602
      @aidanhandlogten4602 2 роки тому

      I’m going insane watching 6:00 on replay to figure this out. He doesn’t practice what he preaches.

    • @gunslinginchloe
      @gunslinginchloe 2 роки тому

      Not completely sure I understand what you are saying, but you can hear a bending note. Earlier on in the song he said to pluck the 2 and 3 string at the same time, and on the fret board you bend both of the strings down. This starts the part where he repeats the song, hopefully this helps some people.

    I think the picking pattern in the beginning might be missing a note in the explanation (2:30). Or it starts on the 6th string and not the 4th?? I don't know... :)
    It's an awesome song and great tutorial. :)

      What do you mean exactly? I’m trying to learn it now but I can tell this guy is explaining one way, but then playing another. He’s plucking more than he’s saying to pluck and I’m lost now

    • @aidanhandlogten4602
      @aidanhandlogten4602 2 роки тому

      He’s totally missing that open note but also plucking in a 7 note pattern with a break between the first 3 and last 4 but have a 5 note plucking pattern. Like Malachi said above^

    • @aidanhandlogten4602
      @aidanhandlogten4602 2 роки тому

      I’ve been trying to figure out the 2 missing notes but I can’t. He’s definitely playing different than what he’s saying in addition to missing the 4th repetition with the open D string. I hope that made sense, I’m learning and not very knowledgeable with music

    During the opening sequence, it sounds like you’re plucking in a 7 note pattern with a break between the first 3 and last 4 but gave us a 5 note plucking pattern (DEGBD) but there is definition 2 more notes. I hope that makes sense, I’m not very knowledge with music terms and such

    • @TimGuitarLessons
      @TimGuitarLessons  5 років тому +1

      Hey Ross! You actually don't have to retune your guitar. If you play without a capo in standard tuning, it will be in the actual tuning I'm playing it in here for the lesson. Colter Wall plays tuned a full step down and then capoed on the 2nd fret (which puts it BACK into standard). There's not real reason to detune your guitar to play it if you dont want to. Colter keeps his guitar tuned down most likely suit the key he most typically wants to sing in.

    • @davidm391
      @davidm391 5 років тому +3

      Put the capo on the first fret on the guitar then tune it to standard tuning pull the capo off then boom your a half step down, if you want to go a full step down put the capo on the second fret tune the guitar to standard tuning then take it off then boom your a full step down, think of each fret is a half step, have fun playing my dude
