I agree with you Yinch - good job Brian. Sometimes we need the music to do the talking/teaching!
Came to say the exact thing. Love the track going in the background for some reason. Made my mind think of melodies the entire time
super ideas that put it all together .top work sir
Yup! I win! My TBI can’t touch this, I GOT IT! Thank you Dr B. !!!
You're unbelievable. How is nobody else teaching like this. Maybe I'm not paying attention 37 years and never have seen anyone break down concepts like this. You have a true gift ❤️
Well said, Brian is an amazing teacher.

The best guitar teacher on the internet for sure

What can I possibly say about Brian and his teaching that hasn't already been said. There are a lot of great guitar players, teachers, and instructors here on youtube that I do watch... Uncle Ben, Justin Sandercoe, Marty, Brett Papa, Rick Beato, Guthrie T, Mark Z, Tim Pierce, Guitar Pilgrim, Paul Davids, etc., etc. But, hands down, for me, Brian is my absolute favorite, and for sooo many reasons, but just want to recognize, not write an essay. Thank you for another great video. I had a lot of fun improvising over this.
I agree, this is the most affordable, productive lesson platform I’ve seen online. Over 480 full lessons and at least that many quikies. Do yourself a favor and subscribe
6min in and I had to hit the like button, inspirational
There's no bigger beginner than me. I got my Strat out and began playing around with this, and MAN. What a bunch of fun you can have just doing these over and over, and adding something every time I get comfy! Best lesson so far!!!
Thankyou breath of fresh air , this is such fun and you put it over in a way that even a thicko like me can follow it , hours of joy on its way with this one .
#1, he does not do this for free. Brian is selling a subscription course, one to which I subscribe and one that is worth more than the $90 a year that he charges. #2, you should subscribe, you will find a wealth of valuable lessons and you’ll find it the best $90 a year that you spend. These UA-cam videos are all only a part 1 of if a bigger lesson. Trust me, you will get a lot of value of what is the cost of three in person lessons from your local instructor.

#3. Who said he does it for free? #4. What are you, his manager?
I would imagine, living with you is like one long, educational, but unwanted lecture.
How would anyone watching or subscribing to this channel cope without you to
explain it all to them?
Thanks Brian, I have learnt and understood more in the last 3 weeks from you than I have over the last 3 years with everyone else.
Thst bass guitar and drums is killin it, that is so funky my man, and when demonstrate how to fill in those licks on guitar simply fantastic, you show that the licks don't have to be all over the place and l like how near the end of the lesson you show how all the licks can be played, good instruction!!!!!!! I'll be learning this and see how l can put this information that you gave to use
Reminds me of Cheech & Chong - Low Rider. Got that feel to it. Great lesson again Brian. Also love the new glasses.
God gifted talent to teach. Best of the best.
you are amazing for providing what you do for free, thank you so much for your time!
His premium membership is $89 per year. So worth it.

It’s not all free, similar to most guitar sites on youtube, you only get some of it for free.
@@xaj1543 thats the point. It is amazing that he shares anything at all for free, especially awesome stuff such as this.
@@davidjohnson3784 if i had any extra, that would be a sound way for it to go!

You don’t watch much youtube do you, there are hundreds of guitar sites, many just as good or
even better than this one. If they didn’t do the videos they wouldn’t attract the paying
customers, it’s promotion, it’s part and parcel of their overall operation, to make money.
In fact there are some sites that are completely free and rely on people donating to make
it worthwhile. You may as well now post the same comment to every guitar site because
it’s no different for any of them.
Wow! Absolutely love this. It really has a Robby Krieger and John Fogarty vibe. Brilliant lesson.👏👏👏
Another rut busting lesson full of little gem takeaways, thanks again Brian, simple but so effective.
Like the sound of this lesson Brian, you are great at the guitar, and a very good teacher. I like how you explain the lesson. Thanks
Great use of the 'doors' style backing track whilst explaining the lesson..
This has that la woman. Vibe. Doors hired. Elvis s bass player. And immediately he walks in with simple cool bass lines. And the whole band. Instantly makes beautiful music
I watch a lot on UT.
You are an outstanding teacher.
Pleasure to listen and watch.
I am retired primary teacher and amateur guitar player, so I know what l'm talking about.
Cheers from Poland.
world class teacher.
This is BRILLIANT! you have the drums and the baseline like this with no third interval… That just opens everything up and helps us to become more creative…. THANK YOU!
Great lesson. Thanks!
Nailed it. Making my Sat morning so much better. Made a little riff from this lesson called up my Daughter and said listen to this. Just hearing her say Wow Dad that was great makes my week. Also some of this has a Doors feeling. Thanks
Super enjoyed this format - More!!!
Great lesson with simple ideas. Thanks.
Brian this is one of the best lessons for beginners. This format with backing track and explanations, finaly I am starting to understand lead. I think you could carry on this type of lessons, especially blues. Thank you.
So simple, so fun...thanks Brian. You're the best!
Excellent teaching sir!!! Bravo!!!
You need to get to a million subs. You have taught me so much over the years.
Genuinely thrilled by this video...
Love this format. Somehow, with the simple backing track continuously playing seems to bring everything together easier.
Thank you for everything you do.
Brian, you’re on fire just now👍🏻👍🏻
I was just looking to start looking at my lead playing on electric, who better than to do it with than our Brian 👍
This was awesome! I love a lesson I can inject into my playing without having to spend months working it out!!
And yes..GREAT teaching method! You're a natural.
Great lesson Brian... I really enjoy your teaching style! Definitely gives me something to work on and practice.
unbelieveable great lesson! thank you so much !
Thanks. Another light build moment for me. My Wife thanks you too. Played some of this lesson for her and she was impressed.
This is outstanding. I haven't touched my guitar in years and this makes me want to dust it off right now.
go for it!
What a cool lesson! 😎🎸🎶
That's so good, terrific lesson.
Excellent Brian thank you !
I also wanted to say you sound great. I That like tone.
Brilliant lessons on these triads over the last few weeks takes playing to next level.thankyou Brian.
Brian, where do I become a ‘Premium member’? I have recommended you to a few friends that play… Thank you for all you do, you are a great Teacher! 🎸🎶
Man that’s awesome. That trips my trigger. Thanks Brian. You’re the best.
Thanks again Brian,another great lesson that proves your never too old to learn!
Brilliant! Awesomeness. This is really good stuff. Thank you sir!!!
Thank you so much! You are amazing!👏
Great practice stuff! I like the 3 note 🎶 scale patterns👍 and use of the triad patterns👍.
Unbelievable Jeff!
Just what I needed to spark some creativity. I’ve been stuck in a rut for a while. Thank you, Brian!
Great! 😊
Thanks Brian. For where I'm at in my guitar journey right now, this was so very helpful. Thanks again and I really enjoy your lessons!
Terrific lesson!
That great 70s psychedelic minor jam! Never fails.
That was a nice little jam Brian! Thanks for sharing!
Very awesome 👏 Master Guitar Lead. I hope to learn more about soloist with you styles the same with this lesson. Cool and Exciting.”
this is an unbelievably great lesson Brian, holy.....!! Where you have gone since lesson 52 is amazing....grateful for having found you...Roberto
Every time I look at your vidéos I become a better musicien !
Thank you so munch !!!
From Mont-Tremblant Québec...!
I have received emails from you saying I have to contact you via Telegram to get a Prize I won. I dont have this application. Is this from you or is it a spam?
Man, that is so cool! Sounds like The Doors 😂
Another great lesson, easy to digest easy to expand upon.
Thank you Brian!
So cool! A few robust simple concepts based on theory = more creativity and fun.
Dude this about the coolest lesson I have ever seen. My friend played a Gibson like that. I wonder what year that is. Thanks
Fantastic , thank you 👍👍👍
Bravo Brian - this approach simplifies the learning of skills and techniques that can be applied later. While I love you lessons I posted on the blog a few weeks ago that I was struggling with trying to play your lesson pieces due to a lack of skills and technique. This gives something to work on that can be applied more broadly down the road. Thank you!
Ok, this is by FAR my favorite lesson from you! I used this IMMEDIATELY! Thanks so much man! You're killing it!
Excellent video especially for beginners like me. I needed this lesson. Thanks so much
Great lesson !
such a good lesson! I kind of wish you'd sing the lesson a bit if the jam track is going in the background. Maybe hum a lick then play it.
Even if I had a handful of thumbs, it still wouldn't be enough! Maybe it's bcuz of your playing and teaching over the backing track but I found this very helpful and really enjoyable. Off to the looper to replicate a transcribed version of my own to explore these ideas and grow accordingly. Thank you sir!
Brian this is brilliant! Incredible. Refreshing to hear & see ideas like this. ❤
love this Active Melody guy....YOU sir are born to teach this stuff...thank you thank you thank you..
Awesome my teacher
Brilliant..thank you
Beautiful !!
awesome!!! thanks Brian!!!!
Having a live backing track is a great idea, very inspiring... I can hear "LA woman" calling me..😎
This is a very pragmatic and useful tool for a struggling Blues guitarist (friend of mine, friend of mine...). Thank you! 😎
I hear a lot of Robbie Krieger here! I love this! ❤️
Great stuff dude. Amazing ideas. Thought you were going to start kicking out LA Woman 👍🏼
keep it simple..love your instruction..walk away w/ tons of learning...thanks
Hearing that flat 7 against the backing track I feel a Mike Bloomfield East West style jam coming on, love it!
Brian- you're doing an excellent job! I really appreciate it!!! I spend more time with you than anyone else!
Great lesson. I love playing minimalist-type riffs and lines. A lot to work on and work with. Thank you.
Fantastic!!!
Brian, You have an amazing collection of beautiful guitars. Mad respect!
Looking forward to trying this out when I get home.
Great lesson! One of my favs so far.
Absolute awesome Brian...!!!
I'd give a lot to see a video like this that displayed, at the same time, a graphic (the ol' dots on strings kinda thing) as chords are played, since the player's finger positions are hard to sort out without a graphic...at least to me and a couple friends who agree. One could then better stop and study each position....Not so much when playing a riff, but on the basic positions that are being discussed before a riff is played.
Thanks for the video. Good instruction and ideas (even if I can't see some of the positions very well. I SHOULD ADD that this is the case with ALL guitar instructional videos. It is maybe harder for me since I have begun to lose my vision too. Well, one needs be thankful for all these kinds of instructions regardless.).
Very awesome Technique. This lesson very good Technique. Thanks you very much.
Brilliant lesson, once again! Learning a lot, while admiring what great touch you have.
Good stuff Brian! 💪🏼
excellent as always.....such an inspiration, thanks
Another awesome lesson. Thank you.
Another brilliant video, I love your teaching style, you really show how to put the theory into practice!
I stumbled across this channel couple of months ago this guy teaches great tips and make it seem so simple but sound awesome learnt a lot thankyou
