    I lost my son in 2017 at the age of 15, he was a musical genius, at 15 he was on stage playing jams from Led Zepellin, Pink Floyd, Beatles, Hendrix, and so many others and was making his own music in his room, I was amazed at his talent. Today 12/28/2020 I picked up one of his old traveler acoustic Yamaha Jrs for the first time and got on UA-cam and found you! I love this song it hits home. I never thought I could learn how to play it. I'm currently learning how to play it thanks to you, and for that I'm so grateful. This is how I will keep my son's memory alive and will always maintain that connection with my boy. I wish you were here son!

      Charlie, I too lost my son. He took his own life during a difficult breakup. He was not a musician but he loved music. When I play Foreigner or Floyd music he is with me digging it. Keep that connection Charlie , keep playing the songs he loved! And thank you Marty! U are an excellent axe teacher!

Thank you Marty for giving me hope. Don`t really know what a like is, but I have been told it`s good. Can you give me one please xxx

    He'll tell you things like "its not too difficult" "we'll have fun doing this", but if you go to other teachers on youtube you'll find'em telling you how technical and tricky the same exact song is.
    Motivation is what makes marty unique, He'll push you to believe in yourself, thats what makes him one of the most successful teachers.
    I owe this to him. He taught me alot. Still.

    • @antoniorodriguez162

      I think it just depends. If you want to hit all the same notes and samish rhythm it’s not too bad. However, if you wanna play it just like Pink Floyd it’s a bit harder.

    Gotta say it...at 57 I am an intermediate (at best) guitar noodler like many out there. I'm not looking to exactly replicate what these axe-masters perform, I just want to be able to play the songs around the proverbial campfire and sound decent. I have dabbled into many tutorial pages on UA-cam and you, sir, are by far the most understandable and easiest to follow. You teach a perfect medium between being too simplified and overly intricate. Kudos, and thank you a million times over!

    Going through a rough patch lately so I decided to pick up the guitar about 5 months ago.
    Not knowing how to play a single chord I come to YT and find Martymusic. After going through the chord lessons to learning my first song “Knockin on heavens door”
    I’m now finally able to play this.
    When I first started and learnt the easy part I thought wow can’t wait to learn the rest, clicked on this and got intimidated and quickly clicked away😂
    But after learning many songs and techniques all thanks to the great Marty music I came back to try my luck and when I finally got it I may have let a few tears of joy come out.
    Thank you very much Marty, I’ve always wanted to play guitar and to be able to play so many songs I love is a privilege. Much love ❤️

      Marty Music All my guitar mates like you best, Including me:) A mate was learning stairway to heaven, and i said "watch Marty, i learned it from him" and he replied "who do you think i'm watching?" You are so good at explaining things:) I'm putting in a request for Homeless by Ed Sheeran. I can't find any tutorials for it, and the tabs dont fit with his live performance, so i am kind of stuck. Meanwhile i'll keep learning this lovely solo:) Sending luck from Norway:)

    Marty, thanks a zillion - no, make that a squillion - for making this channel. I’m a 54yr old beginner, and so far can play Blackbird, Rocketman, and this (almost - slowly will do for now), thanks to you. Great teaching skills Marty - I can’t help saying “let’s break this down and zoom in” at every opportunity! 😆

And about a year ago, I found you and you helped me understand so much. Now I can play the guitar so thankyou so much

    @waynecrain3969 6 років тому

    Thank you Marty for all of your guitar lessons. I bought my first acoustic from a Montgomery Ward’s in 1968. Although I learned basic chords, until recently, when I purchased my teen son a beginning electric guitar, I wasn’t afforded the luxury of time to sit down, relax, and play to challenge myself. Your educational videos have allowed he and I to spend brief, but fun times sitting together and learning.
