      ​@@nsinc965 I learned the hard way, there is an allen key slot inside the hole in front of the guitar that allows you to raise and lower the strings from the fret board. Whenever I first got my guitar apparently the strings were way higher off the board than they were supposed to be, requiring much greater force to push down the strings to play a note. My first month of playing guitar was extremely painful, but I developed calluses real fast.

    Guitar teachers from thirty and forty years ago never taught about scales or keys. The most common thing I heard from anyone was that If you know three or four chords, you can play hundreds of songs. Almost as if they were hiding something. The biggest reason people quit is they don't progress. I now know I won't.

      i’m guilty of telling people if they learn 4 chords they can learn tons of songs. I think it’ll get them to start playing. I’ve owned a guitar since i was 7 and didn’t play anything or learn anything till i was 20. It’s definitely about the people you have around you and your drive to learn it.

    This is probably the best guitar lesson I've seen in a long long time. Most lessons focus on one aspect, one song, one technique, one scale, a few licks, you get my point. I would LOVE to see a whole course built on your approach. All the way to more advanced concepts. More scales, chords inversions, more theory. That'd be a massive hit.

    I really enjoyed this lesson. I was able to tie several things together that I already knew. I now have more insight on how to actually make music. Joining your YT Channel to support. Thank you so much!

    Exactly what I needed... I mean I've got fragmentary knowledge on chords, chord progressions, pentatonics and some techniques scales as well as a repertoire of some mediaeval songs... But this gives me a good foundation to summarise what I learnt so far and cement it all together. I'll be rewatching this video a lot to get it nailed down, I was always fascinated by the art of improvising, this was a solid foundation you presented, thanks man! Really appreciate the content you make 😊

    we think really alike, i was thinking the same exact thing with the learning a bunch of chord progressions and how to arrange lead with chords together. I also was thinking the same thing. Rather than Triads which take forever to learn.

    The thing I’ve learned about playing in front of people is. you know more than them what you think sounds alright probably sounds amazing to them.

    You are amazing.
    Its been quite some months now since playing the guitar feels more like a chore than something i love and enjoy, I'm buying a new guitar, a massive upgrade compared to the one i own now, so that should give me the right energy, plus all your videos i feel they will help me massively with my little journey to kinda enjoy sitting there and just have fun

      I always impress myself and others around me when i play on a simple like 3 string traditional musical instruments. It's interesting because i play guitar!! One of the reasons is you can't do anything else on that instrument, you should be creative and make the melodies with one string. And mostly it's not that hard, when you repeat a thing, it becomes like a hum hum in their head, now you just have find the perfect match for that. And one other thing i really grasped this time, is that, right hand is just needs to be good, if that hand plays a rhythm well and like experienced guitarist, left hand can move around and even play wrong notes, cause there are no right or wrong notes.

      Thank you! I really disliked guitar as a kid when my parents got me to play it. Took me some time to really start having fun. But I promise it changes from a chore to something you'll love. That tipping point happens at a different time for everyone. Getting a new guitar will make a HUGE difference I'm sure ☺
