    I was telling my wife this morning that when I first came across your page and subscribed 3-4 years ago, I got frustrated because your stuff was over my head and I couldn't quite wrap my brain around it...followed a couple other cats at the time and over the last couple years I've progressed but was hitting a plateau...ironically, your videos started popping up in my feed again about 2-3 months ago...the way it started instantly clicking was crazy and I've been strictly looking for your stuff everyday since...rushing home to practice right after work and even my wife has remarked on how much different I sound from the mechanical way I was playing the last couple years...thank you for being an amazing teacher and sharing your gift with us 👊🏾🎸🔥

      Same for me as far as when I first started, I was like “he’s dope but I can’t do this!” A year later I’m at least able to follow along a little bit now! A year, one month in and 8 guitars later! 😂

    Just came across this site in my feed (bassist reinvigorating his 6-string chops) and appreciating the voicing shortcuts here lots! It’s in the spirit of this that I wanted to bring your attention to a couple things noticed here: @ 2:38 you’re playing a Cmaj9(no 5) but the affixed chord diagram, if I’m reading it set correctly, plots a C#7/B out and not the desired chord shape that’d produce the former, same happening with the Amin11 @ 2:53. Chord diagram shows an Amin7(no 5) with another flat7 G (lol add14?) included higher on the E string which you’re pulling-off into, not Am11 which would have the 11th-interval D being fretted by your index on the B string in that position.

    Great lesson. I like progressions to sink my teeth into. That hammer on wit the Maj9 is tricky. I usually play the m11 wit my 1st finger on the B string, so that'll take some sdjustments. Great vid once again. S/b: you may want to rock one of those clip on mics so the sound is consistent throughout. 🫡🫡

    Great lesson! I just wanted to note that the you play the C Maj9 chord different from what you have displayed in the pictured chord graph. You play C-D-A-D in your fretting hand (a Hammer-on between the B and A), but have C-(f#\ gb)-A-D displayed in the chord graph. Am I reading it correctly?

    Nice video, please place the shotgun mic overhead pointing towards you and against the guitar amp to achieve best voice over quality, avoid talking and playing at the same time or just simply overdub your voice over on top of the guitar audio, that would really help with video editing as well as offering the best audio experience to viewer.
