    What is wrong with the 132 ---- heads that DISLIKE this lesson ?? Justin is by far the best guitar tutor online -- So easy to follow and not trying to rip us off financially -- why be negative about him - if you don,t like it - go elsewere !!

      Stephen Whiteside because you can't call it and easy beginners lesson if your gonna just say random chord names and not show HTf to put your fingers in that chord

      Jesse Nelson it's called a folsom blues easy lesson. Not teach jesse how to play simple chords that you could find in a video called how to play simple chords. So yes you definitely can call it an easy folsom blues lesson. People like you don't want to do anything to help yourself. Expecting all the work to be done for you and then having the cheek to moan about it. You sum up all what is wrong with the world. Take your negativity and piss off

    Been following Justin since I began guitar. A stranger, in a guitar store, told Me about him. Next time I saw the stranger I bowed and We both had a good laugh. Point being - Justin is a very good guitar teacher.

    If you are playing along to Johnny Cash and think it doesn't sound right put a capo on the first fret. Same chords. E, A and B7 but with the Capo.

    This video helped me a lot, so I'm here to say thank you one more time, Justin.

  • @profitfever
    @profitfever 12 років тому

    I've always found his videos very informative, and he is providing me with the basic information if i need to learn more than that is what is called "Self taught". You pick up information from this man here, who gives me some good ideas and timings on the Sony. Then i have to write it down practice it and understand it. He is just here to share some knowledge and I'm sure if you want the teacher experience he provides that for a fee, like every other teacher. A more one to one based exp.

  • @bjourne100
    @bjourne100 9 років тому

    FYI, Justin sings the song at about ~120 bpm while Cash does it at 100 if you assume 16th notes. The lesson counts 8th notes, but it is easy to transpose it to 16th notes -- just hit the base note on each beat instead of every other. I keep the rhythm by tapping my foot and it is way easier when you use 16th notes.

  • @Theas100
    @Theas100 9 років тому +6

    For those who are confused why he says the chord progression starts with 4 bars of E (x2), then he only plays half of that, it is because he is strumming down on ONLY beats 1 and 3. If you go back near the start, you will see that he says strum down on only those 2 beats because it's a blues shuffle. So then it ends up working out because 4 bars of E (2 times) becomes 4 bars of E with 2 strums per bar, rather than the usual 4.
    Keep pressing on, fellow beginners!
