    For all the people saying he’s not a good teacher, I’d beg to differ. This was a brilliant, concise example of certain techniques that I didn’t even know existed but this was exactly what I was looking for!… the standard way of choosing cords and strumming simply up and down kind of bored/bores me and I have more fun basically beat boxing and slapping my guitar. I didn’t know what I was doing but it feels much more engaging, fun and brilliant way to play and make cool sounds, beats and mixtures of noises. You’re almost like you’re own Band with just a simple acoustic!!! ❤️❤️❤️

      There are plug inns for your browser that can make loops in youtube and slow everything down. This made it possible for me to find out what he's actually doing. Hope this helps you! It did for me. Succes, it's a great lick / technique!

    Call me a contrarian to many of the comments here, but as a rank beginner I actually got a lot out of this video. I watched it all the way through four times then slowed it to half speed and watched and watched and watched. No, Justin didn't spoon feed us here but I could easily see the end goal of what a tremendous amount of wood shedding can yield. I really don't like to be held by the hand. But wait there's more -- by not breaking it all down to its minutest details, there is room for us students to perhaps create something new. For me, this is a successful video. Thanks!

    This is really helpful if you’re already a musical genius and can put together your own practice chords to do this with. But I’m not a musical genius. I’m just a guy with a crazy amount of built dexterity. I can do everything he tells me to do, but I can’t make it sound good because I’m not musically inclined. I need practice examples, a little walkthrough on some things I can do with it, then I can mess with that and make it my own. But I definitely can’t think like a musician quite yet, after all, I’ve only been playing for a year and a half. And flamenco is what drew me to guitar. So that last part was useless to me, then the rest of the video was stuff I CAN physically do and comprehend, but since I don’t have the musical inclination to just make things up it honestly wasn’t much help.

    It's funny how there is like an argument or a conflict between the hands, as to which one of them the rythm belongs to. If you allow an accent to be played out with your left hand, or even left finger you can feel a grumpiness from your right hand: ".... Ok.... I'll let you have it.... But just this once!"

If you are still not good at these techniques after watching the video it isn't because the video is bad, but rather because you haven't practiced enough.

Drop d has a really simplistic piano esc type up down playin style. Also learning rhythms first is much more crucial bc melody and chords can be memorised later but rymths have to be built in to the muscle memory so get them down first
