I'm 52 and have been playing since I was 18 and I gotta tell you man, you are an excellent teacher. There are, literally, thousands of folks on-line teaching, but you are one of the best. You spread positive creativity and you do it for free. Nice!
btw for annoying one wondering, meat puppets version on there album meat puppets 2 its in standard but its all the same chords and riffs etc, cos ive seen tabs thats compensate for it being in flat(eg an F# instead of the G), dont bother tuning down or compenstating, just do it this way, sounds just as good in standard but does sound a little thicker and heavier in flat, proberly why unplugged was in flat, cos makes it sounds a thicker and softer in a way, because theres a slower tempo used
Thank you so much!! I pretty much almost learned how to play two songs from you. Nirvana's "Something In The Way"because that's one of my favorite songs & "Lake Of fire" The Nirvana Version. My dad is always playing guitar. Since he was 14. Now he's 66. He had to help me out a lot! We just kept re-watching your videos and learned every step. I never really played guitar until now for some odd reason and I like it haha. Even my dad learned some new tricks from you! I really appreciate your help!
You've helped so much with my playing. Every time I type a song I want to learn into google its always good to see your videos. Thanks and keep em coming
It sucks to have to tune them down but when its tuned down find songs to play in it. For example Sweet o child of mine by Guns n roses the intro is somewhat easy and tuned a half step down
@FlySociety06 If u know that the 5th fred E sounds like A Why dont u listen to the first tone he plays and make ur guitar sound the same. Then make the A string sound like the 5th fred on ur (not anymore E) and do that with all the strings( exept the 4th string where u have to play the 3rd fred) And u should be done:)
Thanks Marty, I've learnt some great songs off you and Justin. The fact that you guys give up your free time to record and post these videos to help mugs like me is awesome. Thanks heaps.
Marty, you are one amazing person. You're a god on guitar and you share with us all of these lesson for free and your an amazing teacher! I can't thank you enough dude!
holy crap i was just thinking today while listening Unplugged in New York how i should learn Lake of fire and now i see my favorite teacher posted it.>.> marty youre awesome!
@BloodyHarry456 Yeah man, i know im learning some chords. Im younger and i have small fingers, i find it tricky to get a good feeling with regular chords. Thanks man. Ill try and practice them more.
At first I wasn't sure if I liked you (nothing personal, but sometimes you just cant get used to a person). HOWEVER, I did get past that point, and I want to thank you for all your hard work :)
it means you tune each string one half step down by playing each first fret and tuning your guitar down so each first fret note sounds like standard tuning on each open string EADGBe. Make sense? ;)
Thank you so much Sire ;) You opened an all new GALAXY to me! I'm actually playing on a lapsteel as I can't play a regular guitar, so your Eb lessons are GOLD to me! Once again, thank you. Subbed & subscribed of course :))
Kind of hard to follow. The last minute or so was helpful but I'm still not exactly sure what I'm meant to be doing for the "bluesy" part at the 11th fret.
Thanks Marty but I've been trying to look for a lesson for oh me covered by nirvana but I can't find one your the one who teaches it better can you please do me the fair and help me
great job marty keep the good tunes coming have you ever heard of white bird by it's a beautiful day thats a great song i would love to learn how to play it
not sure its the same song (although given kurt's somewhat punk background i would not be surprised) but this is a meat puppets song, although kurt cobain did do a cover of it and made it into an almost new song, i feel as though you should credit the meat puppets for writing it, great video though
@verhoffj1 first off no not everyone can, personally i can do almost anything except alot of soloing, never rlly learned it but i have pretty much all the other skills, and to me the song is so cool that playing all bar chords for it doesnt bother me at all
hi marty, i started learning the guitar (self-tought) at the age of 42 which was more or less one year ago. mainly with the help of your free youtube lessons i managed to play a couple of cool songs now. thank u so much for it. you cannot imagine what it means to me. do you deliver your products and dvd courses to germany as well? btw....do you have german roots....just thinking because of your name. anyway let me finish my comment with a request. could you teach "laugh n a half" from D.A.D.
@verhoffj1 I have a ton of great products that teach how to solo. in fact, those products paid for this free lesson. might want to check them out, thx, marty
I start to learn this music whith ur video today and i really like ur tutorial ! I'm a beginner in guitar (if i can say that in english? cause i'm french aha ) and it's very cool to learn with u ! *sorry if my english seems not natural* Thanks !

Thank you for what you do! You're videos are extremely beneficial. If I ever want to learn a song, I always come here!
Mate I live the way you teach so simple and easy to understand you make it look so easy brother !!
You are the best online teacher. You've taught me tons of songs, from Sweet Home Alabama to Roadhouse Blues.
i hate tuning guitar half or whole step down.
+Ricky Roma is it possible to play it without tuning?
+Marc Möller yes, it will just sound higher pitched, that is all.
+Ricky Roma - yes just shift everything down a half step. Start on F# instead of G & lay it in standard tuning
thanks will try it
It sucks to have to tune them down but when its tuned down find songs to play in it. For example Sweet o child of mine by Guns n roses the intro is somewhat easy and tuned a half step down
@JohnBonham27 its on the unplugged album its a live cover from the meat puppets
@FlySociety06
If u know that the 5th fred E sounds like A
Why dont u listen to the first tone he plays and make ur guitar sound the same.
Then make the A string sound like the 5th fred on ur (not anymore E) and do that with all the strings( exept the 4th string where u have to play the 3rd fred)
And u should be done:)
SEE 'EM AGAIN ON THE FORTH OF JULY!
Thanks Marty, I've learnt some great songs off you and Justin. The fact that you guys give up your free time to record and post these videos to help mugs like me is awesome. Thanks heaps.
best guitar's teacher ever. greetings from Italy
@TheJasongrodsky It's a Meatpuppets song, but Nirvana's cover is more known.
Thank you so much !!! Everytime i look for a song i like to cover, here it is your video already !!! You Rock !!!
Best online teacher ever! Learned a lot of songs by you, great step by step instructions and good video quality! Keep up the good work!!
It is possible to play in standard, just play everything one fret back (you'll have to use barre chords in the last part)
Marty, you are one amazing person. You're a god on guitar and you share with us all of these lesson for free and your an amazing teacher! I can't thank you enough dude!
@FlySociety06 just put your capo on the first fret and tune to standard. take the capo off and your done.
holy crap i was just thinking today while listening Unplugged in New York how i should learn Lake of fire and now i see my favorite teacher posted it.>.>

I do that with so many songs. Certain tuning can also stress the crap out of your neck.
At 9:24 to 9:25 that move is so quick I thought the tape skipped. sweet lesson
The really only chords i can play are power chords, thanks to you, i know many songs that have powerchords in them, thanks man.
