    Thanks Scott. My Friend suggested we cover this song and I instantly went into trauma. I have only just started to learn guitar (play bass mainly) and your tutorial has helped immeasurably.
    Thanks again and I will be checking out some more of your tutorials.

    Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was able to learn this song very quickly, it is the best version on guitar that I found and you explain it in a way that is perfectly understandable even for someone who does not know a single note, like me :)

    You are a very competent and skilled player with a gift of teaching. You should share more about yourself so people have an insight to you the person as well as the artist. I found your version of Colorblind to be one of the most, if not the most accurate version on UA-cam. Thank you.

    Hi Veronica! Sorry for the slow reply. Buying a first guitar, the most important thing to keep in mind is playability. There are a lot of junk instruments out there that are difficult to play. If you're interested in an acoustic guitar, there are reputable builders such as Yamaha, Fender and Seagull that produce good entry-level guitars. Ideally, if you have a friend who already plays, ask them to go with you to a guitar shop to try out guitars before you buy.

  • @ScottWilliams419
    @ScottWilliams419  11 років тому +1

    BTW, the guitar I use in these videos is an Art & Lutherie, a Canadian builder (a subsidiary of Godin). They make good quality instruments in the $300-400 range.

      @@waitsinstrumentsllc2611 I checked the link, and it still seems to work: scottwilliamsguitar.com/counting-crows-colorblind-guitar-lesson/
      In the sentence "A PDF of this lesson in standard notation and tablature is available here," click on the word "here." The PDF should then open up.

      Hey Lauren, sorry for the slow reply. If you haven't already, check out my tablature for the lesson. There's a link in the description. Also, you may find it helpful to isolate the movements for each hand. You can practice the left-hand chord forms and right hand pattern separately. Once you are comfortable with what each hand needs to do, you can combine the two. That's a practice idea I picked up studying classical guitar. I hope that is helpful!

    • @lauriee2011

      Oh Thanks I never even seen that, i just need to keep practicing.
