I'll tell you what, I am far from anything other than an intermediate player. One of the first things I did was to force myself to learn barre chords... the F to be exact. Best thing I ever did...opened up SO many songs. It's a pain in the ass in the beginning but so rewarding. as far as getting from teh E to the Bm easily, I shape the E differently. I don't use my index finger. I shape the E with my middle, ring and pinky. When I need to go down to the Bm the shape is already there, I just have to drop my index. +Subbed
I just started playing guitar and not going to lie the first cord in this song with the barre is a real pain in the ass to play and hav it sound good lol
I said the same thing for a while you'll get it try to put your finger at a bit of an angle helps with distribution of the weight of your finger or something
Very nice! Break down after 20 years and finally pick up my guitar back up your breakdown was fantastic at 57 years old and 20 years of from not playing your lessons are making it easier for me to get my musclekeep up the great work will be checking out more of!
Have I told you you are the best? I love how you sing and the sound of your guitar. The format of your lessons is great, all that I need without unnecessary clutter. I can cross-reference some things on my own if I need it. Most importantly you have infectious personality. It is such a fun for me to follow your lesson bit by bit. Thank you.
Thanks for the lesson! I cheated and used the capo version but I love this song, wanted to be able to do it justice for such a long time. I based my own cover version off of this video! Legend. Forever grateful
As I'm a beginner guitarist and simply cant get the B minor barre chord to work consistently, I used the 4 finger version of the B minor chord which is basically the FMajor7/C shape played at the first string of the second fret.
I really like that you also sing to your tutorials because sometimes with other tutorial I kinda get confused with where to start mostly if it's a song that I don't know longer... that's really helpful!
My First Nations friend aka Native American / Indigenous brother, is a little person, he has little hands and he shreds thrash metal. Search ( Eric Ear ) or ( wee death) trust me if you stick with it you will eventually be able to play almost anything. Peace Crazyhorse.
Ah it's the F barre chord that's the killer when you first start learning how to play guitar. But don't give up......it comes in time and with practice.
Hang on in there Thor. Put in the time and get the technique sorted and you’ll get there. Check out my course Barre Chord Buster for the technique part.
Thanks you I never realized just how easy that song was to play I have been in a rut for a while and I think this will help me out I love learning how to play a new song gets me back in the mood for playing
Drue James - you are the best! You break things down and teach guitar in a simple to understand way. Thanks for taking the time to share this video. The BM chord is impossible for beginners, so the 3 chord version you share at the end is helpful. Great voice and smile. . . . please keep sharing tutorials. Any chance you can break down the guitar solo (especially the embellishments) in Landslide?
remember to be realistic - you'll have to put in a bit of work whichever system you choose for learning Guitar I have spent months studying playing guitar and discovered a fantastic website at Guitar Guru Method (google it if you are interested)
Mate, it may took me about a month or more, but i think im close to getting it, i just need to get used a bit to quickly change to strum individual chords. Thanks a lot, my fingers bled 4 times during the time i learned from you :D
@@DrueJames And I can play it . How about that ? I’ll go for my old Epiphone later but is has no vibrato bar . Seen and learned a lot from your videos. 🙏
I bought a guitar for my kids and promised they can each get a guitar of their own if they can play three songs. I decided I want to learn too. I've always loved this song (And I'm a metal fan) I stumbled on this post. Its good. I like it. I have a music background but not guitar. My fingers hurt so bad. But dang man, I almost got the easy version after about 30 minutes. (And you're a smooth teacher too)
That was cool man! I played the opening into a few times and visualized myself doing it. I'm still new but yeah, I could see it happening one day. Thanks Drue.
YOu give really great explanations! I'm an intermediate player but I can definitely see a lot of beginner benefitting from this! @Wil definitely be seeing more videos
Son !! Son !! That's mad....just found this to learn how to play and blamm - what a performance !!......realistically beyond my reach, but stick to the task, let's go....

That's the way I do it as well, to have index free for the barre.
B chord:
Him:"Push down nice and hard"
Me:"I am pushing!"
I said the same thing for a while you'll get it try to put your finger at a bit of an angle helps with distribution of the weight of your finger or something
I feel your pain 🤣🤣🤣🤣

You keep popping up when I'm looking for a solid way to play a song. Love it!
That's nice to know!

Cheers dude.. I only had to watch for 25seconds to know what I wanted.. you remain the man 🙌🏼
Hands are not made to do B-minor chords!!! *Throws guitar through room*
I feel you... (stupid small hands)

You can play with small hands, go Eric aka Wee Death see him shred with tiny hands: ua-cam.com/video/NP9ALM_BGQg/v-deo.html

Tizoc Hernandez any song by them would be awesome
I played this at a friends wedding last weekend. Great song. If your comment gets more than 30 thumbs up I'll make the lesson.

You can embilish the d chord when playing with the capo by putting your pinky finger on and off the high e string.
Yep, that works. KOP.
That was cool man! I played the opening into a few times and visualized myself doing it. I'm still new but yeah, I could see it happening one day. Thanks Drue.
