When the song was released, I was in my early twenties and I couldn't play the guitar. I loved this song and I imagined myself playing it on guitar. Now I'm over 50 and today that dream came true! On the second try I was able to play the whole song along. It feels like a little warm light during the darkness of the pandemic. Thank you, Mr. Big and GL365S for the good Feelings!
I'm a beginner and I've been searching for lessons about how to play that song on guitar. Your lesson helped me a lot. Thanks a lot for your great effort!
Really well analyzed and perfectly taught. thanks...I rediscovered this song today...hadn't thought about in years...again....you nailed the solo...gonna save my ears a lot of work.....perfecto! thanks!
Nice lesson as usual. As a bit of a cheat on the bass run, I barre the A&D at the second fret for an E5 with my first finger and mute the GBE above. This leaves 2nd & 4th fingers free for a much easier bass run. It's not a full chord but I think this is better than missing the bass run out. I can do it your way too but playing live, easier is safer ;-).
This is a great lesson and you're a great teacher. I learned to play this song fairly quickly and I'm now playing along to the song. I have pretty much everything down except for the solo but I'm getting it. I know he finger picks the solo but I found it much easier to play the whole solo using my pick instead since I'm not very good at finger picking. Also I thought I would have trouble with the bass line he does in the chorus but it's actually really easy. Thank you for helping me learn one of my favorite songs.
Great lesson Carl. Thank you. When I first started learning this the riff seemed so hard. I thought I would never get it but kept practicing over and over and one day it just clicked, I can do it just about perfect now. Practice does make all the difference!
Since i was 8 , I wished to play this song. But I can't play this song exactly ( specially solo ) . I played A major instead of A suspended, and i made lot of mistake in chorus I used to play with E, A, B X2... C#m, A, B, E....F#m, A, B, E...., But i found accuracy on yours... really it helped me a lot... Thank you for this video lesson. And it would be grateful if you made another video on Mr Big Wild world, recently i searched its tutoral video on UA-cam but im not totally satisfied.
Thank you GL365S for this FREE lesson. I appreciate all the hard work that you do to provide us learning tools such as this video to help me become a better player. I have hacked this song to it's bitter end for years, but today... I found this lesson and practiced it until my fingers damn near bled...for real. Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones..BTW Carl....I now am a subscriber and I am looking forward to more videos !!!
your the coolest guitar teacher in youtube,.bro... I learned to play the guitar technically because of you lessons ... please do a guitar lesson for the song green tinted sixties mind by mr.big thumbs up if you want to learn this song too...
Hey Carl! I was listening in another tab in my browser and quickly needed to switch over when i heard your seamless and smooth solo for this cover. Thanks for mastering this song before you filmed (im assuming), ;) It's really refreshing to hear another guitar teacher's flow and zen teaching style. CHEERS! - Troy from SLC, Utah
If you watch the music videos he actually has his pick in his hand but hides it for the solo. He plucks the crap out of strings but isn't hybrid picking. Sick video though, thanks for teaching the song!
Hey Carl, I love your Videos..you are by far the best Guitar Teacher on UA-cam! Thanks for everything! And if I could place a request ;o) PLEASE do "Solsbury Hill" by Peter Gabriel..there is no accurate Lesson out there..would be awesome. Cheers!
I started practicing this last night and It's wonderful! could you please post the SOLO Tab you used in this video just to make it easy for me. Thank you very much=)
Hey Carl, I'm looking for a "Great Divide" guitar like yours and can't find them, where did you get that, it sounds amazing. I hope you can help me out, great lesson's man, I've played for going on 30 years, and believe it or not, you have made me a lot better. Love it man keep it going.
I think you should do That Smell, by Lynyrd Skynyrd...i think one of the most beautiful and difficult guitar pieces to learn so a lesson about it would be GREAT :D You're the best on YT man keep rockin!
i love tutorials like this but no one ever explains the chords, like idk what an e is so i had to stop and go figure it out 😭 i wish it was in the videos like the first one

It's always fun to revisit songs I tried to learn when I was new and gave up on, only to see it's easy now. Makes me feel good.
One of the best feelings
same thing! prime example...i just heard this song yesterday and thought exactly this!
Me too😁
I ll never be able to do this......
I have some free time, maybe i ll learn this
exactly

Thanks for the lesson 👍my brother used to play this song alot.....an awesome guitar player he died 2 weeks ago... only 47...he's the reason I play
8:00 - solo+amazing chords = my favourite thing ever to exist!
I'm a beginner and I've been searching for lessons about how to play that song on guitar.
Your lesson helped me a lot.
Thanks a lot for your great effort!
Bro how's ur guitar playing now I'm sure you're probably very good at it by now??
Where was this video in 1991 when I was trying to impress chicks with my guitar?!
😂
I play that moving bassline with my second finger and pinky, after playing the Emaj. It's fairly easy to do it that way.
Thanks for the lesson.
Really well analyzed and perfectly taught. thanks...I rediscovered this song today...hadn't thought about in years...again....you nailed the solo...gonna save my ears a lot of work.....perfecto! thanks!

Such a positive vibe here. Btw, how old are you mate?. I'm going to learn play guitar at my 27. Am i too late to learn guitar?
Bless you. I never thought I'd ever learn to play the solo but 30 minutes later I am. Thanks a million.
Great lesson Carl. Thank you. When I first started learning this the riff seemed so hard. I thought I would never get it but kept practicing over and over and one day it just clicked, I can do it just about perfect now. Practice does make all the difference!
I want to learn this as my first guitar song to play at my daughter’s wedding
Thank you!!
Amazing, I was dying to figure the solo but my ears have failed me. But you never do, of course! Thank you!
Outstanding video!! I picked up the solo in about 30 minutes! Thank you and keep up the great work!!
OMG. this is the first time I successfully pulled of a bar chord, I am a beginner in case you haven't figured it out yet.
You are the one that we could learn a great music of my life ..
I was watching your lessons years ago.
