Your instruction has been amazing. Started learning guitar 20 years ago and never followed up. I always loved guitar but I always had a learning block of some type. Your videos have been such a gift. I am a paramedic who suffers from PTSD. I have been using guitar for therapy.
I never realized you interviewed Ed King. My father was the stage manager for Lynyrd Skynyrd in the late 60s early 70s, and back in 2010 we took a trip to Nashville and I met Ed King and went to his house for dinner. Great experience and a great guy. Rest in Peace.
Hey Marty, I'm a 39 year old dude just learning guitar for the first time. I just want to thank you so much for making these videos, you've helped me more than anyone else. Hope you're doing okay. Much love man! Keep up the great work ❤️
Heck of a ride to sit down in, I'm currently 14 and I picked up on guitar from my dad and uncle, after my uncle passing it really moved me and I learned wish you were here from pink Floyd, and it's definitely challenging but I stayed, you got it!
@@jeffm5991 I'm an old man now but I remember when I was about 12 years old my mother told me one time "If you find one real friend in your lifetime you have done more than most" Just saying - A lot of people think they have "friends" but they really don't. The word "friend" is thrown around very loosely. Just saying - don't feel alone because you may not realize it but - you are in the majority.
@@mikylevictor8042 haha i suppose so yeah. I've owned a guitar for a long time, tried to learn a couple times. This summer I really decided to crack down and so far, so good
Man you are the reason I still play guitar! I have tried so many other instructors and UA-camrs over the years but your tutorials are still the best by a country mile. Keep up the awesome work! 🤘🏻
Great list and love the pointers of how to go from the basics, to adding some simple licks or walk downs to make them sound that much better. Looking forward to seeing Part deux!
Thanks Marty - I was alway nervous to get playing and learning. You made it easy for me and my 10 year old to learn! We appriciate the hours you spend spreading the love of guitar.
I was 13 and started playing with your help. Learned a ton, got my finger smashed off at 18. Just yesterday at 24 I picked it up since I’ve built some skin on my finger back up. So glad to see Marty’s still here.
Marty, you have helped me so much over the last 8 years you have no idea. Thank you for teaching me how to play guitar, it has brought so much joy into my heart.... A life long dream come true. And I don't even have a thumb! It's awesome. So grateful! Thank you!
As an "intermediate" player, I still very much enjoy learning from Marty, especially since my rediscovering the craft in my 60s a couple years ago. There are times when I think of just retiring and hanging out on a main street corner and playing & singing these 10 songs over & over-- just for the "totin' around money" -- and it truly wouldn't even feel like working. Love it! Thanks so much, Marty!
Marty, I am 31 years old and have been watching your content since the beginning! I was truly in a rut as a young novice player until you came along. The 17th "Feb 2022" of next month I will have been playing for 20 years and I owe a large chunk of that to you! Thanks so much my friend. You are truly a master of the craft😎
I'm just starting out on guitar and so far, you're the best teacher I've found. If you still take requests, it would be great if you could do a video on Runaway Train by Soul Asylum. Every video I watch on it doesn't really land with me. Thanks!
Thanks for breaking them down to their simplest form. You are always my go to for learning a new song and have given me 100s of hours of guitar playing enjoyment.
Marty you’re awesome! As a guitarist and teacher! I’ve wanted to play guitar for like ever. finally I picked up the acoustic guitar had for years and following you I am actually enjoying learning to play. And I’m only on lesson 3 and I’ve watched 1 strumming vid of yours. Love your approach, 5 minutes a day has turned into 30 minutes a couple of times a day. Building up calluses and loving it! Your the best!
I’m a beginner and it’s hard figuring out what song are within my ability. So, this would be a great series even if it were top 10 drop d songs for beginners or best finger picking songs for beginners.

Hey Marty, I had to find my password just to login and pay you a compliment. These messages are meant to be short. I'm 55, tried a couple of times to play in my 30s, and quit both times. This time, I started in January. I put my stand right near my desk so I'll pick it up every day. I guess because I'm a little more "mature," I'm patient, tell myself there's no rush and glad I'm glad to be learning. I would have quit if it weren't for you!! When I google tutorials, I go straight to those with your picture. Your method, consideration for the learner, upbeat and personable nature...well, we're now friends. I am grateful to you. Thank you Marty. Oh by the way, I have two bookmark folders, one called 'Guitar', one called 'Marty'. If I knew I how to use FB, I would have posted this for others to read.
Marty! You are my go to! I recommend you to everyone. I started taking lessons for a few years when I was four years old then put it down for a while. Since I’ve had kids I’ve picked it back up and you have taught me so much. I’m beyond appreciative!!!
i apologize for my photo but you've literally taught me and helped me through my dads death 8 years ago and helped me accomplish so much since i saw you at 16. Now i reap the fruits of my labor because of you man. your the best inspiration for anyone. you show if you have perseverance, you can make it. so i thank you marty!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have gotten a few of your products. I’m doing the Texas blues currently…. I got off around 12:30 and picked my guitar around 230…. It is now 5 in the morning, and my eyes are watering… but I don’t want to stop playing!!!! This is my me time!!! Thank you Marty!!!!
Marty, I can't thank you enough for all that you do here. I have been a beginner for decades, and I feel like I can finally move on with your help. You have a great teaching style and great taste in music. You have helped me more than you know. Thank you so much.
@ martyschwartz I love how you explain you teach very well. I am re-learning the guitar. Taught myself years ago to play for my own enjoyment from the piano. Then raising three kids came along and work. I’m so blessed. They’re grown and part time. Now I can devote re-learning and found you a while back. you are great. Thank you for all you do👍✌️👍✌️❤️👍✌️
what a great video, marty taught me how to play a few of these and I'm still at a beginner level, but i watched this and learnt some new songs pretty much straight away. thanks for everything dude
Today in church I got the idea to learn the acoustic guitar so I got one and took it home. While in my car I browsed for beginner lessons and out of the list, I found you and Fender which I think will be the two main resources for my new hobby. In one day I have learned the anatomy of the guitar and also used a free Fender Tune to learn how to tune and fine-tune. Thanks to Marty for saying there are free apps out there to help. I looked and found one.
I started a year ago and I agree none of these were easy. Well it’s been a little over a year and these are all easy now 🙂 just keep with it never give up and always remember the fun of an instrument is whatever you want. Everyone has their own style and influences and everyone was a beginner once
@@jameslizardoGot my first at 14 - now 44….. but had a 25 year gap in the middle, where if I played at all, I played the same few 4 chord songs and nothing else - for a quarter century! 🙈 …. Back on religiously since 2021 though 😁
Started learning guitar in February this year, 2024 aged 59. Discovered Marty June 2024 after hitting 60 & the videos have been incredibly helpful. The frustration is real though!
Now plz do one similar list of songs for us intermediate guitarists 🙏. there are tons of vids for beginners on yt, so i feel like intermediate guitarists are often left out
Hi Marty, I've watched you for a number of years now and I've learned so much. Cheers for helping me out, you're always the guy I refer to when someone wants to learn guitar. 😊
As much as I would love a part 2....I think I really NEED to see a part deux! Great work Marty been watching you for a few years now man. Literally, no corny bs, you've taught me 90% of what I know on the guitar...Thanks man!
My students just bought me an acoustic guitar to make sure I follow through with my goal to play the guitar. These videos are amazing. Thank you so much.
I started a week ago, had to take a few days 'off' due Cov-19, just started to browse again for guitar songs and as always, I landed in your channel (which I subscribed to the day I started). Love your approach, simplicity and straight forward. I'm playing Zombie after 4 days (!) thanks to you and this video just opened my 'appetite' again. Thanks for posting this videos, you make guitar playing feel easy (and doable at mid age ;-) )
By the help of this fella am pretty no bad now after 2 years of hard work but again thanks for these videos helped me learn so much massive appreciation 💪👍
@@MartyMusic Hi Marty. Could you do an acoustic lesson of 'Hope' (Twista ft. Faith Evans) ... just watched Coach Carter again and Im obsessed with this song
Your the reason I learn how to play guitar I was so blessed been able to buy a guitar when I was 17 and I didn’t have enough to pay for guitar lessons but you Marty help me out so much thanks ur such a blessing thanks for what you do now I’m 32 and still playing
When I started playing guitar I wanted to shred. As I went along I learned it was fun to play lead lines but more fun to play songs with little embellishments and also some lead stuff (Think: Sweet Child O’ Mine). I never wanted to be in a band. I started late in my 30’s. Now, in my 50’s I just wanna enjoy what I’ve learned and have fun w it. Marty makes it fun.
I'm 62. I can still hit some of the high notes, but something every musician should understand is that for the basic 1/4/5 patterns you are describing, once you learn barre chords, the world is your oyster in terms of simply transposing the key to where it's comfortable to sing. I am not criticizing your basic video instruction here, I know you get it, and I'm sure you teach this in your classes.The "high notes" comment came from "Have you Ever Seen the Rain" at the end. I move it to A. I can technically still hit the notes in C, but it is far more comfortable down a step and a half. And indeed, I learned most of these songs MANY years ago, but for beginners, this is a very good lesson. Thumbs up.
Marty , you are amazing brother ! The time and dedication you take and put into rhese videos all to help us (especially begginers) ubderstand Truly amazing , cant thank yoy enough!
Hey, thanks for this. This is perfect beginner stuff (that I still need) and you teach it with such a warm, natural style. The playing has a great feel too; this is a 10 across the board.
Fun fact! Let it B starts with a C :) I Like what you're doing. After almost 30 years of playing electrical guitar I'll tackle the challenge to learn some acoustic songs for all the campfires of this world where shredding fails to impress ;) It is funny to see what's actually hard to play for me but considered being easy and vice versa.
Totally got check out these song! Just had a baby girl and I’m going to have to brush up on my guitar playing for her. It’s been a while since I’ve played. Thanks Marty!
gotta say.. you just know when you meet someone that can rock it out. so smooth..just totaly understsated skill. nice one -one of best vids I have seen.
Great as always Marty. Oh my Lordy so many also come to my mind: “Love the Way You Lie” “Margaritaville” “Tambourine Man” “Maggie May” (well, it strays off a bit) “Can’t You See”
Thank you Marty for the great guitar instruction. I really enjoy your videos and find them very helpful. I was wondering what is your favorite guitar to play?
Thanks brotherman, whenever I'm stuck I don't hurt my brain, I just check if you have covered the song and so far I always find everything here. Amazing 💯👍👍👍👍🙏
When i was begginer i found lots of your videos for begginers........Now im much better and i play much harder songs, but i will never succes without you Marty
Marty I have been playing guitar in total now almost 15 years.. I could never progress because I’m self taught.. and then I found your UA-cam. I love your videos, and I have been so lucky to have watched them for the better part of a decade. Also.. Peace and Love sounds like a fancier Imagine lol
Whenever I want to learn a new song and your video pops up I can learn it so much easier than with other guitar UA-camrs on here you have a way of making it so much easier thank you so much for doing this
Awesome Marty! I have been learning parts of what you just ran through masterfully and you put it all full circle for me... Every time i thought i was figuring it out and getting a good grasp... WAIT! There's more!!!
Sometimes I just lay in bed at night and think about how people used to learn to play guitar without Marty
Surprisingly, i did it all without him :) I need a whole year to get to the point to play any songs i want without looking at the chords formation. And Dude, its a very satisfying Journey😅 But Marty DID help me to play some songs. But most of them is self-taught
They used to learn by ear most still do
LOL
No you don't. Stop lying
probably carl brown
I was fighting with depression and then i bought a guitar 3 years ago and playing guitar helped me a lot to get better in life
Hell yeah! It really helps to have something like guitar to focus on. It can be daunting at first but, once you improve, it’s so rewarding.

I've been playing for nearly 7 years yet I'm still a sucker for videos like this!
Ditto

me too
Great refresher for even us vets.
For sure....
I actually learned the basics of playing guitar from your old lessons on these songs years ago! Its good to see your still teaching beginners.
I never realized you interviewed Ed King. My father was the stage manager for Lynyrd Skynyrd in the late 60s early 70s, and back in 2010 we took a trip to Nashville and I met Ed King and went to his house for dinner. Great experience and a great guy. Rest in Peace.

Thank you Marty, I have learned so much from you since jumping off the cliff and pursuing basic guitar after COVID grounded us all. 😎

Marty , you are amazing brother ! The time and dedication you take and put into rhese videos all to help us (especially begginers) ubderstand
Truly amazing , cant thank yoy enough!
Please do more songs ! Enjoy learning this way!
Hey, thanks for this. This is perfect beginner stuff (that I still need) and you teach it with such a warm, natural style. The playing has a great feel too; this is a 10 across the board.
Fun fact! Let it B starts with a C :) I Like what you're doing. After almost 30 years of playing electrical guitar I'll tackle the challenge to learn some acoustic songs for all the campfires of this world where shredding fails to impress ;) It is funny to see what's actually hard to play for me but considered being easy and vice versa.
When marty starts shredding on the easy tutorials i know ill never get there but ill continue to enjoy watching and learning !
Marty you have and still are one of the biggest helps in my self learning experience
The Ed King interview by Marty was really great. Had to be overwhelming to be playing with Ed King. Legendary
Congratulations Marty on 3 Million subscribers! Truly a feat and well deserved recognition for what you have done for all of us.
Totally got check out these song! Just had a baby girl and I’m going to have to brush up on my guitar playing for her. It’s been a while since I’ve played. Thanks Marty!
Friend: "Hey, you play some pretty good guitar!" Me: "I studied with maestro Marty Schwartz"
Yes, part 2 please!!
Cats in the cradle ,
was my first song to strum and sing .
Has a cool lick in the chorus to keep it amusing .
gotta say.. you just know when you meet someone that can rock it out. so smooth..just totaly understsated skill. nice one -one of best vids I have seen.
"Redacted." Funny guy Marty, funny guy. Two thumbs up.
Don't know why he had to redact the name Grateful Dead....lol
I’m considering at mi early 40’s getting serious about acoustic guitar and in a big part is because of your videos so I just wanted to say thank you
Thanks Marty, you're a rockstar buddy. Very helpful and fun.
Great as always Marty.
Oh my Lordy so many also come to my mind:
“Love the Way You Lie”
“Margaritaville”
“Tambourine Man”
“Maggie May” (well, it strays off a bit)
“Can’t You See”
Thank you Marty for the great guitar instruction. I really enjoy your videos and find them very helpful. I was wondering what is your favorite guitar to play?
oh i love hove u teach... and you are so friendly. i learned "I Wont Back Down" in like an hour or two. thank you for sweeten my day
Thanks brotherman, whenever I'm stuck I don't hurt my brain, I just check if you have covered the song and so far I always find everything here. Amazing 💯👍👍👍👍🙏
You know this guy is a legit guitarist because he's wearing a unique hat.
Yes I would love more easy songs! You're the best Marty!
When i was begginer i found lots of your videos for begginers........Now im much better and i play much harder songs, but i will never succes without you Marty
Marty I have been playing guitar in total now almost 15 years.. I could never progress because I’m self taught.. and then I found your UA-cam. I love your videos, and I have been so lucky to have watched them for the better part of a decade.
Also.. Peace and Love sounds like a fancier Imagine lol
Also can’t believe it’s been 6 years already. Like.. I’ve been watching your videos for over half a decade.
Whenever I want to learn a new song and your video pops up I can learn it so much easier than with other guitar UA-camrs on here you have a way of making it so much easier thank you so much for doing this
Awesome Marty! I have been learning parts of what you just ran through masterfully and you put it all full circle for me... Every time i thought i was figuring it out and getting a good grasp... WAIT! There's more!!!
Chronixx:legend... You're out here changing lives and healing souls man
Sweet home Alabama was the first song I learned other than smoke on the water on the big e string alone. Just exactly how you showed it.
09:08 best riff ever 😎
Holy ship I'm guitarist!
Bad one but still. It took less than two years. Thanks Marty
Exactly how I think of myself at time. Lol
Marty you’re so fucking badass brotha 🤘
