    One of the best things about Justin's lessons are the multiple skill levels he teaches to. As a beginner, I learned the chords and now returning to the video 2 1/2 years later while following his fingerstyle module, I am starting to be able to play it more authentically Thanks Justin and Happy New Year!

    • @patrickmacleod2415
      @patrickmacleod2415 13 годин тому

      She didn’t play the finger picking riff. In fact, I don’t think she played guitar on the recording at all, and live she just strums basic chords. Session guitarists (Wayne Moss and I forget who else) recorded the guitar parts.

Tempo is my challenge for finger style. Own 3 of Justin's song books, two theory downloads and recently made a small donation. Would recommend to all that follow Justin's lessons to contribute what you can or acquire a book to help him keep the lessons coming!

    Great tutorial, thanks Justin. Sounds such a simple song when strumming chords, then you get into the fingerpicking and it’s so much more complex than I ever thought. After hours of struggle I can play that riff at about 1/4 speed, and as soon as I start thinking about it I go wrong! And you sing at the same time...amazing

    I am 51 years old and returning to the guitar after 30+ years. Somehow I still know the Travis pick pattern used here and I am still rather fast with it ( from several years of playing Freight Train and Dust in the Wind ). But my left-hand finger tips still need to get hard because I get grooves indented from holding the strings so when I lift off that A minor chord I pluck all the strings with the grooves. Also the hammer-on is mushy sounding. But the pattern and timing, probably the most crucial parts, came to me quite easily.

    I have an upcoming gig with a Dolly simulator here in Vegas, I wanted to get up to speed on this song and you saved me some time! Thanks! There’s a book for the show, but it’s risky relying on what some arranger (who’s probably not a guitar player) writes down…usually will be horribly flawed! And then having to sight read a wrong part can be a humiliating experience! Thanks again!
