All of his videos have the same editing quality, he must have some knowledge on cinematography, maybe even some formal education on it because it is simply amazing, he's got the perfect setting too.
Definitely resonates a warm vibe from his color choices, lighting to his voice and especially his playing. Does a fantastic job of making listeners comfortable. Can’t imagine being his student learning at his place!
That was not only beautiful, but funny and inspiring. Thank you, Paul. Made my day. This is the anniversary of my Mom's passing, and I am sitting here playing these chords to her. With love.
I am 57 years old and have been playing metal for most of my life Metallica, Yngwie Malmsteen, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, ETC. you have peaked my curiosity to pick up my acoustic again. Beautiful acoustic chords. I can hear an original song in my head with the chords you just showed me. I think my lady would rather hear that. I might get lucky!
SIR slowly I am starting to believe that your not only awesome at guitar and teaching but also at *Editing*. Hands down one of best guitar videos I have ever seen.
the witty humor and good editing, along with the technical knowledge explained in a simple way makes for a great lesson. It makes absorbing the material fun AND easy. Speaks volumes about the individual providing the lesson. Thank you for making these videos!
I just want to say Paul, I've been playing the guitar for 17 years, and in the last few years, my skill has exponentially grown. Well, more like the way that I think about playing the guitar has grown, and I attribute a lot of my success to you. Thank you very much good sir!
Inspirational….I am a beginner in many ways….but even I try some of these chords…the happiness in actually managing some of these chords is magical…and sets me up to jam along with my favourite bands…..thank you
I'd certainly agree! AND I must add that there is a second Bob Ross of guitar UA-cam that I highly recommend--my buddy @EricHaugen got called the Bob Ross of guitar instruction by none other than the Recording Academy on a World Guitar Day article from a few years ago: "Haugen's material is daring and inventive, his channel is warm and inviting, and his teaching approach is relaxed yet empowering - think Bob Ross for guitarists." It's great watching their videos back to back...all we need now are some happy trees and squirrels to start popping up in these videos!!
I can't explain how much Paul's videos have helped my playing. I was years deep down the rabbit hole of shred guitar playing when I discovered this channel. I was floored by how Paul is able to play some of the most basic guitar material and make it sound absolutely gorgeous and perfect. To me, watching this video is beyond impressive. It's forced me to take a step back and remember the two most important aspects of the instrument - playing things that sound good and are tasteful and also buying lots and lots of very expensive guitars.
Like seriously... Out of all the youtubers this guy really knows what he is doing... He recreates, innovates and puts up a soothing feeling from this instrument...
@Blarg Wth was not expecting for you to be here of all places on the Bob Ross of guitars’ channel considering the personality you give off on your vids and podcast with the other gøøns
This guy is a literal genius. Like holy cow. The creativity in these cords are just mind blowingly beautiful. Thank you so much Paul for putting out this video! Hopefully we can see more of this soon!
Paul, your not only a tremendous musician/guitarist and a great teacher but a real natural born comedian, which makes it even twice as nice to stick around all your great videos. From your accent I'd say your Dutch and humourwise that would make sense. Keep up that great work. Big Hug from Alicante, Lars
I am actually "inventing" "new" chords by just moving shapes over the fretboard and trying how and where do they sound right with/without some open strings and it is real fun. Paul is the master who than name them and explain all the theory and give me a new inspiration for which I am very grateful. BTW: fantastic idea of two Pauls each one in other's notebook, respect! :)
There are lots and lots of “generalisable” shapes on the guitar, So long as you know what note is the root note of the 3 you’re playing, And you know your intervals, You can know what chord you’re playing and not just by ear, Having a sense of major and minor, Sus, dim, and aug chords shapes and which ones I can generalise to other parts of the neck really helped. So like knowing that you can generalise a shape all the way along the neck, Knowing it will produce the same chord type all away along the neck, But the only thing that changes is the notes under your fingers, Making it a different chord, But because your fingers haven’t changed shape, The intervals that make up the chord are still the same, just the notes that make up the chord is different,
I have to comment on your course, "Next Level Playing". It has really given my guitar playing the boost it needed to be able to improvise over chord progressions. I still use the Bonus Pack tracks when I practice to get myself loose and focused. It is worth every penny!
I've done that kind of "interacting with yourself" editing in video and live. It's such a satisfying trick, but also takes a bunch more work, so... thank you for investing that time into making an already great lesson even better than it has to be!
Paul, you're killing me😂😭 I love how you put these videos together brother, Making them interesting, funny, emotional and all while teaching us something beautiful! Great job again my friend!
Brilliant,he shares his gold,his tutorals are best.I play guitar for 45 years,my band realeased 10 albuma,now solo career,I write music and lyrics,my band played as opening for David Bowie in front of 40.000 people in Zagreb back in 1990,etc,etc. But I still learn,I played classical ,never wanted to learn chord progressions in fear that in would ruin my crativity,but maybe I am wrong.Paul is master,often for me some chord suound is starting point ,the sparkle to a song.Recently I had a song that was often played on the radio in Croatia with only 2 beutyfull chords.I will share them on my channel,although I dont have time to be a proffesional youtuber.This video inspired me to do this,thanks Paul.
Thank you so much for all the work you put into your videos. As a bass player of 16 years I have tried picking up a 6 string many times over the years and very quickly given up trying to learn chords as my hands would never quite get the hang of different chord shapes and would fatigue surprisingly quickly. After my wife and I had our daughter I desperately wanted to learn to play some songs on acoustic that I can sing to her. After finding your channel and seeing the pure joy and excitement you get even playing simple chord progressions I am glad to say I pushed through the initial wall that has blocked me so many times before and am developing my guitar playing at a rapid rate. So thanks again Paul without your videos and passion for the craft I'm sure I wouldn't be where I am now.
I accidentally learned A minor and D minor. A minor when I put my fingers in a random position. D minor when I was learning a Ghoultown song, and I played the riff as a chord.
Best guitar teacher in the world! You explain things so clearly, simply and logically even a dumb ass like me can get it. The camera work and sound are excellent. Love the whole "talking to yourself" gag! Seriously, Paul Davids is the best guitar teacher on the net or anywhere else!!!
(Not looking for sympathy) Today was a really, really tough day for me. Watching this video, indulging in the music and learning these chords just made me simply at peace. Thank you, kind sir. You were put on this world for a reason.
Hi!! It’s tough for everyone right now, we’re all in the same boat; I’m from Wisconsin by the way. I’ve been diving into guitar more than ever just to get my mind off things.
Wow!!!! Thank you for not only the education, but for slowly demonstrating truly beautiful chords and chord progressions. It’s really nice to see a video of actual chords that sound sad/happy and overall beautiful. You sir, are phenomenal!
One of my absolute favorite little pieces of sound is a regular C to a Csus2/B, played on the 4 lowest strings (I normally tune the low E string down a whole step to make the Csus2/B easier to play). Sounds heavenly on the telecaster with reverb and the tone knob turned 40-50% down.
Beautiful chords man. For those of us who are musical instruments all our own, and you know who you are and know what I mean, this hits somewhere extremely deep. Music is such a beautiful gift God gave to us. Thank you sir for sharing your gift with us. Don't forget to thank God everyday for the things He has given.
The acoustic riff sounds like Johnny marr’s Some girls are bigger than others. I wish I learned this during my first years. Never too late. Thanks for teaching us.
I love Cocteau Twins! Trio that layers and cheeses chord. I imagine all 3 instruments/voices create these type of chords. And add the overtones, harmonics and open galactic gates. Bless music
@@Machihekamake You are so right about Johnny Marr and Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others. There is a Smith's bootleg version I think from San Diego'86 where Johnny plays an extended (i believe) intro...it is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard.
i used a few interesting voicings for a I-vi-IV-V progression in the key of G Major, so 3-0-5-0-0-7 (Gadd9omit5) and then 0-10-9-0-0-0 ( E minor ), to 3-3-2-4-0-0 (Cmaj7/G), and then 0-5-4-0-3-0 (Dadd9add11), yes you play all the strings on every chord
What about 0-10-9-0-0-10? I love the D in E minor chords :-D... And I also like to play x-5-4-0-3-5 Greetings from Germany :-D!! I'll keep your chords in mind - I'm 14 years old, so there is still some space to add a few :-D...
Grüne, entkernte Olive Greetings from Indonesia dude, also a 14 year old here. damnnn that's a nice chord. That 0-5-4-0-3-5 was goodd, gives a fuller sound don't ya think dude. The Em turns into an Em7, which sounds heavenly, u're a genius dude! :D
@@euglenoid8897 Thanks bro, you're also amazing :-D!!! And you're also that young?! I really start liking you ;-D... I create those chords when I watch UA-cam and I'm still bored :-D...
@@euglenoid8897 By the way: Do you know "Ezio"? He's a musician that also likes Em7...and he makes good music!! There is one great concert of him on UA-cam...
Hey Paul! Thank you so much for your videos man. Im 33 learning to play guitar, just picked up my first strat and im in love !!! Your videos help me a lot. GOD BLESS YOU
I think Paul Davis is one of the best teachers on UA-cam. He’s very thorough about what he teaches and he teaches accurately, and he teaches you about music and he educate you because he’s a very educated man. I totally give Paul Davis thumbs up all the way.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😆🎸🎼🎶🎼💖🎸 Thanks so much for all you do.🎸😎
Well nothings ever 100% original no one can ever make anything without loving the art form no musician has never heard music before no author has never read a book, no artist art, no architect buildings.
I just found "Sugar Coated" on Spotify. Paul, why are none of your UA-cam videos performance vids? The beginning of this video is so pretty that I just want to hear you play that guitar and float off into space. I love your lessons and I am playing and practicing again after many years off. But man, you need to get some more songs out into the world. Keep up the great work and the great channel.
i feel so happy today, for the first time you bringing up music theory in your videos and i am understanding it...thanks to your music theory episodes...
Wonderful wonderful sounds you play with the chord structures and progressions. You Mr. Davids and Marco Cirillo are my favourite musicians on UA-cam to watch and learn acoustic guitar. I also love those sweet resonant sounds that give one delight, and a sweet spot of experience through music. I'm presently watching and learning the chords from your UA-cam video here. Fun experiences and very good for one's being and others hearing the music.
I am the same in regards to feeling every chord! I cant stop closing my eyes. I love to listen my way around the guitar. Sometimes helps. Sometimes its disasterous.
For me even as a metalhead who loves my explorer guitars and v's .. my first guitar ist still the most beautiful guitar for clean sound ... my stratocaster played with the neck pickup is just wonderful imo ♡ Thanks for sharing those chords and riffs.. I definitely try them next time I'm jamming and vibing on my guitar ^^ Well done and cheers! :)
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I always enjoy your lessons, jokes and your wonderful accent. But when you reveal such a beautiful things it touches strings of my heart and I regret UA-cam does not have button 10 or even 100 likes :) Thank you one more time!
This philosophy reminds me of how U2`s Edge plays .. i saw a documentary once where he said that he`ll take a conventional chord shape and "play" with it to make it sound kinda different and new ..cheers anyways great vid !
Just figured out this kinda mu major chord that sounds cool with the b and e open. LowE -7 (ring) A-4 (index/pointer) D-7 (pinkie) G-6 (middle) B-0 highE-0
Paul, you are the maestro and more importantly the muse. Your video channel has done more to elevate my playing more than anyone else on YT or live teachers that I have had. One possible equal is Justin Guitar, whom I generally view to sharpen my basics or step into a new style, like finger picking. That said, I don't always follow exactly what he teaches, but with your lessons and demos I always come away with something, even if it is just a new found appreciation for how beautiful and meaningful music can be. Thank you for the lovely chord shapes and examples of how to make them shine. PS; I was trying my hardest to NOT buy a classical Nylon string, but all hope for that happening is now gone!
This is definitely the best video I ever seen in my whole life about chords, you are the master of matching sounds together, your taste is perfect, the best sound expert
When I hear this playing, I think of something Stanley Jordan said: play a little, then listen... the next part will suggest itself to your mind. Play that, then listen some more
it's not often I go looking for something and actually find it. I have played guitar for years and know all the regular chords, bar chords and so on. Now later in life when I'm planning to buy a really good guitar I though I should be learning new stuff and BAM here it is. A really neat introduction to getting more out of chords for some lovely sounds. Thanks.
Don't you regret not buying the very best guitar you could have right from the get-go? All those compromises are a waste of resources - while good guitars only got better ;-)
@@freeman6147 my main acoustic is a Yamaha APX SPL II which is a good guitar. It’s only now that I have a need for a better one having stopped playing electric. I have sold 14 electrics btw.
This guy is like Bob Ross of musicians... Let's add a 9th and 11th on that chord. So that it's not lonely. Everybody needs a friend. Chords, too.
lmao!
Beat the devil out of the guitar
so true
@@divutian5876 that's Davie504 area here

Absolutely agree
it shows a lot of work went into this
Amazing how much anger it generates when you say that. I agree i think he's great.

You nailed it. That’s exactly why I watch him.
Of all the UA-cam guitarists and people offering tips, tricks, lessons etc. Paul has the absolute best delivery. Keep up the awesome work
I am 57 years old and have been playing metal for most of my life Metallica, Yngwie Malmsteen, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, ETC. you have peaked my curiosity to pick up my acoustic again. Beautiful acoustic chords. I can hear an original song in my head with the chords you just showed me. I think my lady would rather hear that. I might get lucky!
This man is writing perfectly voiced chord progressions and giving them to us for free. Thanks Paul^^
SIR slowly I am starting to believe that your not only awesome at guitar and teaching but also at *Editing*.
Hands down one of best guitar videos I have ever seen.
How could you have just started to think that? I'm pretty sure you would know he's got mad editing skill on the first Paul Davids video you watched.
the witty humor and good editing, along with the technical knowledge explained in a simple way makes for a great lesson. It makes absorbing the material fun AND easy. Speaks volumes about the individual providing the lesson.
Thank you for making these videos!
I just want to say Paul, I've been playing the guitar for 17 years, and in the last few years, my skill has exponentially grown. Well, more like the way that I think about playing the guitar has grown, and I attribute a lot of my success to you.
Thank you very much good sir!
This dudes transitions are almost as godly as his guitar playing skills
Yeah

It should be everyone's goal in life to find someone who feels the same way about you that Paul feels about these chords
The worship guitarists will be all over this one. I'm already seeing angels floating in heaven. Very cool Paul
Exactly what I was thinking!
yessir I am on it!

2:27 John Mayer uses that voicing in Why Georgia! The open strings in combination with the maj7 sound so lovely to me
Good catch, he also uses it in My Stupid Mouth! But plays it more as a D chord with the G in the bass
He also uses it in Tracing

This video makes me want to play guitar right now. Even if it’s 22 : 00
Was 4:00 AM at my place when i tried some chords... I hope my neighbors don't hate me too much... :P
It's 00:37 for me and I feel the same lolz :p
What you played in the intro gave me crazy chills
And the most beautiful chord: Reverb
lol😂
Hahah yeah. Add lots of Reverb and call it Aesthetic.
@@rohanthorat3337 Don't forget the lofi tape sound too
Much like red and black together on a canvas if it works it works :)
hi Paul, hi everybody
Oh, Hi
@@PaulDavids Oh wow
You now you've found a great yt chanel when the creator replys to only a 'hi'
@@TheFrizor Hi BP!
Hi
Hi, I like this, it's very wholesome.
From 5 min to 7 min 30 secs..my god..that is just magical Paul..thankyou fellas..gonna learn that today
Sounds so beautiful. I just want to shred emotional notes that make my guitar cry!!
i like this progression: Dminor, Emaj7, Amaj7, 2-1-2 on first 3 strings (idk name), then x-0-3-2-3-3, then Cadd9 chord x-3-2-0-3-3, then Gmaj, then Em
I think Paul Davis is one of the best teachers on UA-cam. He’s very thorough about what he teaches and he teaches accurately, and he teaches you about music and he educate you because he’s a very educated man. I totally give Paul Davis thumbs up all the way.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😆🎸🎼🎶🎼💖🎸 Thanks so much for all you do.🎸😎

HaHa yes
Well nothings ever 100% original no one can ever make anything without loving the art form no musician has never heard music before no author has never read a book, no artist art, no architect buildings.
I just found "Sugar Coated" on Spotify. Paul, why are none of your UA-cam videos performance vids? The beginning of this video is so pretty that I just want to hear you play that guitar and float off into space. I love your lessons and I am playing and practicing again after many years off. But man, you need to get some more songs out into the world. Keep up the great work and the great channel.
i feel so happy today, for the first time you bringing up music theory in your videos and i am understanding it...thanks to your music theory episodes...
Chordal playing is an extremely fundamental way to learn so many things about the guitar and neck. It's really pivotal to learn satisfying chords!
Wonderful wonderful sounds you play with the chord structures and progressions. You Mr. Davids and Marco Cirillo are my favourite musicians on UA-cam to watch and learn acoustic guitar. I also love those sweet resonant sounds that give one delight, and a sweet spot of experience through music. I'm presently watching and learning the chords from your UA-cam video here. Fun experiences and very good for one's being and others hearing the music.
I am the same in regards to feeling every chord! I cant stop closing my eyes. I love to listen my way around the guitar. Sometimes helps. Sometimes its disasterous.
YES! Congratulations, you just played “love is on the way”, by Saigon Kick. (Circa 1990 I think). Yes, I’ve always loved that chord progression!!!
Дядька ты лучший) Как раз таких аккордов мне не хватало))) Настроение очень поднял.
Today you put a smile on my face realizing you are very creative with you twin who adds to your to your Charisma
Music is for sharing, MAD RESPECT!!!!!!
Paul crying - Paul saying to Paul "stay strong man" 😂😂 killed me
The second set of chords I will be practicing and I will always give you full credits for showing me this beautiful use of them
For me even as a metalhead who loves my explorer guitars and v's .. my first guitar ist still the most beautiful guitar for clean sound ...
my stratocaster played with the neck pickup is just wonderful imo ♡
Thanks for sharing those chords and riffs.. I definitely try them next time I'm jamming and vibing on my guitar ^^
Well done and cheers! :)
The was the type of video I’ve been looking for! Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Downright righteous chords. The open notes give it a very soft but melodic sustain.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I always enjoy your lessons, jokes and your wonderful accent. But when you reveal such a beautiful things it touches strings of my heart and I regret UA-cam does not have button 10 or even 100 likes :) Thank you one more time!
This philosophy reminds me of how U2`s Edge plays .. i saw a documentary once where he said that he`ll take a conventional chord shape and "play" with it to make it sound kinda different and new ..cheers anyways great vid !
Look wise , as well as sound wise , the classical guitar is just magnificent
Just figured out this kinda mu major chord that sounds cool with the b and e open.
LowE -7 (ring)
A-4 (index/pointer)
D-7 (pinkie)
G-6 (middle)
B-0
highE-0
Chords are awesome and I really appreciate your creativity of video making..it's different .👍👍
The sound of the page turning sounds so satisfying.
Music is for sharing damnnn that's the best thing I ever heard 😭🤘
Paul you seem a nice guy, but especially your feeling for the chords make me want to sub to your channel. Thanks my friend.
Hugs from Toledo, Spain
Paul, you are the maestro and more importantly the muse.
Your video channel has done more to elevate my playing more than anyone else on YT or live teachers that I have had.
One possible equal is Justin Guitar, whom I generally view to sharpen my basics or step into a new style, like finger picking.
That said, I don't always follow exactly what he teaches, but with your lessons and demos I always come away with something, even if it is just a new found appreciation for how beautiful and meaningful music can be.
Thank you for the lovely chord shapes and examples of how to make them shine.
PS; I was trying my hardest to NOT buy a classical Nylon string, but all hope for that happening is now gone!
When he said *EMOTION* I felt that.
Kinda sounded a bit like “Love is on the way” by Saigon Kick which is actually a lovely melancholic tune. Great progression!
Everyone should be this passionate on what they do and maaan you really do feel those chords. Lovely as always
This is definitely the best video I ever seen in my whole life about chords, you are the master of matching sounds together, your taste is perfect, the best sound expert
AAAA I CANT WAIT TO LEARN
Edit: also I love your stuff Paul lmao hi
I haven't shed a tear in decades... thank you good sir, 5 stars.
I learnt a valuable lesson last night! DON'T listen to Paul playing beautiful chords before bed.......i couldn't get the tune out of my head 😂😂
When I hear this playing, I think of something Stanley Jordan said: play a little, then listen... the next part will suggest itself to your mind. Play that, then listen some more
Thanks, I like that. Shall do.
👍👍
it's not often I go looking for something and actually find it. I have played guitar for years and know all the regular chords, bar chords and so on. Now later in life when I'm planning to buy a really good guitar I though I should be learning new stuff and BAM here it is. A really neat introduction to getting more out of chords for some lovely sounds. Thanks.
Don't you regret not buying the very best guitar you could have right from the get-go? All those compromises are a waste of resources - while good guitars only got better ;-)
@@freeman6147 my main acoustic is a Yamaha APX SPL II which is a good guitar. It’s only now that I have a need for a better one having stopped playing electric. I have sold 14 electrics btw.
