    I have been playing cello for 8 years now and play it pretty fluently, and can make a guitar sound decent, but the transitions for all the chords and trying to control all of my fingers at once on mutiple strings rather than just playing one string at a time with the occasional chord on a cello very quickly makes me realize that the guitar isn't easy. Much respect for the instrument, keep up the wonderful teaching.

      +Its Cherry Thanks, glad you are enjoying my teaching. My students with experience on the violin and cello always have a fantastic advantage, but it still requires patience. Fortunately your musical experience provides you with the work ethic necessary for mastering the guitar, you'll just need to accept that it's a different animal, with a very different role. I personally benefited from learning easy acoustic tunes, none served me better than those found on Nirvana's unplugged album. I'd suggest tackling anything with power chords before jumping into full barred shapes. Enjoy your practice. -Rob

      @Marcel1978dt 9 років тому

      +swiftlessons I think each Lennon / McCartney / Harrison composition has its own special magic ;) I love "Here Comes the Sun" but there are countless jewels you could do as well ;) I can also recommend you Julian Lennons "Everything changes" album and not to Forget Pauls "New". But my all time favourites will stay Johns "Double Fantasie", "Walls and Bridges", "Mind Games" and "Plastic Ono Band". Happy new year! ;)

    Hi! Great lesson, thank you!
    I'm having some problem in the intro, in particular i can't figure out the timing of the first bar (the one with low A+strum +2-2-1-0 on B +D7). It is everything in one bar right? No offbeats? I really can't follow your timing in the initial demonstration. Are there any tabs with timing instructions? (a "standard" musical sheet would be perfect)
    Salute you!

      @bostock2000 4 роки тому

      I had the same issue but after replaying it dozen times I noticed that although he tells you to pick the b string twice, he only hits it once where he plays it through slowly, Then it worked out right for me, but I shared your frustration to the point of almost quitting. 👍😉

    @monicamerchant3553 5 років тому

    Fantastic tutorial and cover, thank you Rob! I love this song and have been wanting to play it for a while. I'm having some difficulty getting the timing right for the 2 - 2 - 1 - 0 part of the melody @4:13. Specifically, I can't seem to get the down-up pick on the B string to flow smoothly from the strum the way you do in the demo. I keep having to slow down at the down-up to make sure I'm not hitting the G or high E or missing the B entirely. Would you have any advice on improving timing here?

    • @doc_lenz
      @doc_lenz 4 роки тому

      Hi! I have a similar problem, I can't figure out the right timing - not because of picking problems, I can't fit all the first part in a single bar in a smooth way. Did you solve your problem?
