Marty I've been playing guitar my whole life and I can honestly say I wouldn't be anywhere near where I am now if it weren't for you. I've been watching your videos since 2010 (when you used to record in front of that red curtain!) and in that time youve helped me learn everything from beginner 4 chord songs to guitar solos that I still rock to this day. I really appreciate everything you've done and I just want to say thank you for being the best teacher on youtube
He has also helped me out a ton with me being “self taught”. He helped fill in the gaps on a lot of things that didn’t make sense to me (I learned drums first). This channel is a huge headache relief !
I've been finger picking for 60 years. Will be 75 next month. Marty you are one of the best teachers I have ever run into. Keep up the great work. If you re a newbie to guitar this is the man you want to learn from. Very patient and very precise.
Thomas Busteed I'm sorry but I tried his little notes that he just showed in this video and then notes don't play when they're pinned down my husband even tried it so he's lying about where his fingers are on the stem of the guitar
MARTY THIS IS BRILLIANT Thank you so much i am a 63 year old man and never played guitar, never had any confidence in my entir life but you sir are a gentleman, I love this song it takes me way back. i got told i would never beable to play any instrument so thus the reason i never played or even tried until my child just started learning , i may be broke financially but people like you give us hope even if testers it gets us started that is why i wrote thise essay not just a message. it is vital to have people like you and other artists in the world rich in giving and rich in heart love you man Bear hugs Robert
Oooohmy goognessses I’m rolling on the ground with joy of finally learning the intro After trying with other UA-cam lessons for months. And then I found MARTY SCHWARTZ. How can I thank you. What patience and love,💕😘❤️😍😋🎶✌🏿🥳 are you available to marry me..... Oh but I’m already married😳never mind😸
My grandma passed away when I was 7. I never knew that she played guitar until I saw the guitar in my mom's closet. My mom told me that it was my grandpas that killed himself when my mom was 6. There was only 1 song that my grandma knew how to playe, I never got to here her play but my mom did. This song was dust in the wind. I don't get to touch the guitar but I have my own so I am going to learn how to play this for my moms birthday or mothers day. I think that this song means a lot to my mom because it reminds her of her mom. Thank you for teaching me how to play this it really means a lot to my family. I'm hoping to get to play it on my my granpas guitar.
This was one of my first songs I learned when taking lessons 30 years ago ( just recently picked up playing 8 mos ago) from a classical guitar teacher. It is coming back to me very fast after watching both parts. I wish my fingers were a nimble as they were way back then... and UA-cam was invented. Thanks for sharing.
Hey dude, I know you uploaded this years ago, been watching for years. Thank you for what you do. You'll probably never see this comment but know you've made a difference. In my horrible times and not having an outlet you gave me a way so thank you. One love and love life.
@eclecticsoul2514 every day above ground is a blessing even if I don't always see it at the time, I hope your life is doing amazing. Thank you for asking , you're a good soul
hehehe had the same problem when i first started learning this song. Left it for 2 months and now that my fingers have properly caloused its gotten so much better.
@@daylightriot5671 oh man I can feel the pain through your message. Stick with it. It took me months to get them proper calloused (they go from soft to hard and back to soft again at the end)
This is not the easiest picking rhythm. Atleast it isn't for me. But I love finger picking. So I'm getting there. I appreciate the tutorial on this song Marty, I'm a big fan. Good work.
just keep practicing. i just go song to song so i dont get in a rut then each time i come back to a song i have a little more practice and make a little more progress
I concur with the Ganja guy. Work on some other riffs or even just take breaks. When you come back to it, you just naturally have a better handle of it and you make further strides.
Marty has graced the guitar community with his efforts and lessons. His breakdowns and in depth explanations are priceless. You get all this for FREE!!! Thanks Marty! GO SUPPORT HIM!!!
My grandson is learning this and I thought I would give it a go too. I appreciate how you go nice and slow and that I can easily see how your fingers move. You sir are an excellent teacher! Thank you. You have gained a loyal subscriber.
Marty, you are a true teacher of the guitar for beginners to even intermediate level. Very few teachers have the patience to slow things down, step-by-step, and then gradually speed things up. You do a great job with that.
I just got that moment , that moment when you hit all the right notes , the right chords in the right time and you say to yourself yes ! I can hear it now ! Then fluff up the next bit and can't nail the first bit again! Thanks marty for your explanation and demonstrations , it's really helping me along!
Marty- you are my favorite Internet teacher ! You don't make me feel stupid or clumsy like some of the other on-line "teachers" do. You allow me to retain my guitar dignity, and hence I learn from your instructions. Please post the remainder of this song, Dust in the Wind. My Lady and I love this tune and she requested I learn it and play it for her. Thank you ! You rock, Marty.
I love the way how you do these lessons. You break them up into pieces we can all learn, you put some humor into it and you even put some melody into the way you say things. Great job man!
Hey Marty, there's this really cool song I know how to play by Eddie Vedder. It's called "Guaranteed", and was part of his album he made for the movie "Into The Wild", and it uses the same Travis picking style that you used in this video. I thought it be really cool if you did a tutorial for that song, because I feel like lots of people would enjoy it. And also, great video! :)
Wow thats awesome! Just Breathe - Pearl Jam has the same pattern also! It was like a bomb in my head when I realised.. learned Dust in the wind first and a whole new world opened for me. :D Just wanted to share.. Have a good day!
Man I love your channel, I'm 48 years old and just started playing last month and come a long ways already. I been telling my friends about your channel who are wanting to learn too and they just started your channel and love it!
I personally can't do fingerstyle at all but I watched your video around 4x(only Travis picking parts) and have been practicing for an hour on it and I now have it thank you SM your patience and slow playing is a major help!
"Dust In The Wind" is a beautiful song. I thought Travis Picking was beyond me. But your detailed and excellent tutorial helped me immensely. Thank you very much.
Just great... spent 2 weeks just practicing the picking pattern but making progress. Will be buying your finger picking course. May not get round to doing anything with it but after using so many of your videos I definitely owe you!
I am 58 years old .took up tryin to play 4 yrs ago .. you have help me so much . I have bought a few dvds thank you. I have sat in a few open mic night here in the last few months fist one bomb out. next went better thanks again MARTY
Hey Marty can you give us a lesson on the non unplugged version of old love by Eric Clapton. I like the live/non unplugged version more then the unplugged version. thnx Mick
I hired an instructor beginning of the year to help me learn more than the same song I've been playing last thirty years. A couple weeks ago he assigned Dust In the Wind for my recital in May. I feel I got the finger picking down but not as fast as you. What I got out of your lesson is helping me out a lot!! Wish I could show my results to get an "atta boy" from ya, lol!! Thanks, Marty!!
This song bring so many good memories along with heartaches. I can’t believe I am now playing it. I swear I thought I would NEVER get it 😂 Practice and patience was much needed though
I'm a beginner in guitar and I just learned fingerpicking. Everything I've learned was from Marty. From Blackbird, Landslide, to this, he has been a great teacher.
I used to play that song back when I took guitar class in high school and after all this time, had it memorized up to the point of the rest of the song. My Mom used to have me play it everytime one of her friends came over and I got burned out on it and had the finger picking down after all this time until the other day when I actually looked at what I was doing and then I lost it, so, thank you for showing it to me again. I want to see the rest of the song's notes so I will be able to play the entire song once again and my Mom will be surprised still after all of these years when I play it for her again. I never learned how to use a pick but did have my fingerpicking down. Now if I could learn how to use a pick like I want, I can learn the guitar again and this time play like I always wanted to.
MARTIN!! What the heck! YOu have a new CH!?!? I feel like it has been ages. I'm really liking the new vids. You have come a long way! I wish you much more continued success.
Thanks a million, Marty!!! You habe single handedly been responsible for my learing the guitar. I finally feel like a half way decent intermediate guitarist at 42, after a lifetime of wanting to learn! If it helps anyone, this is what I put in my phone notes (or write down) to play this intro: PICKING PATTERN: A/B, D, G, A, B, D, G (CHORD SHAPE/B STRING ACTION) C: 1, 0, 3, 1 Am: 0, 3, 1, 0 C: 3, 1, 0, 3 Am: 1, 0, 3, 1
"Hey guys marty here!" God that lights me up! Haha I remember the first time I heard it with my brand new guitar trying to learn if you wanna sing out by cat Stevens. If it wasn't for marty I'd have never learned anything. Thanks so much bud
I'm usually very good at finger picking. But this particular pattern is soooo simple yet soooo difficult. This is gonna take a lot of practice for me. BTW, thank you, #martyshwartz I have been watching you for years, pretty much since you started making videos. And you have taught me so many songs. I love your teaching style and how you break everything down. You are one of the original youtube guitar tutors. Much respect you know your instrument. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I used to play acoustic guitar ... we're talking over 30 years ago! -- and I played this song with this picking style. It's all coming back to me watching your video/s!!! Such a big help. Thx, Marty!!!
I'm a beginner and this video gave me so much hope that I can really learn and play the song :) Thank you so much for this tutorial, you make it really easy to follow along and learn!
Marty I have learned three songs with you so far. This is the fourth song. I don't ever comment on any UA-cam videos, I think mainly because I spent the last 35 years in the Technology industry, but I was compelled to comment. YOU ARE AWESOME!!! My son and daughters heard me playing Metallica "Nothing Else Matters" and gave me a big complement. I learned it all from your videos. I have been messing with these guitars since high school. I play on an Applause by Ovations and a Epiphone Dot Natural. I had a Fender Mustang 66 back in the day. Thank you Marty for being patient and just down to earth. Obviously came from my generation. Stay cool. R. A. Bonifer Jr.
Marty you are my favorite teacher by far that i have found on here that does a great job breaking chords and songs down. Thank you, please keep going! you're awesome man!
THANK YOU!!!! - just on a note, I got the picking and the melody, but I was totally off on the rhythm and even when I went as fast as I could it sounded like a total different thing. It was puzzling me! So, I dedicated my weekend to fix the rhythm and I was only able to do it by using the first few seconds of this video and setting the playback speed to 0.5 and then to 0.75 and playing along 100 times. I noticed my timing was way off by doing that and I was able to fix it! Now my intro sounds very close to the real thing, but my fingers are bleeding hahahah.. Great tip for whoever is learning and having trouble after getting the picking: Slow down the playback time and watch his fingers!
I’m having the same problem... I got the picking pattern down before he even finished explaining it and can play it at full speed easily. But the rhythm is so off. I tried slowing down the video and I still couldn’t get it to sound right. I need some serious help.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I have watched over a dozen videos on Travis picking, and you have been the first teacher that slowed it down so beautifully, that I could actually learn the method. I'm psyched to become a pro at it, like you! Rock on, brother, rock on! Many blessings to you and may your gift get stronger and more magnificent!
Thank you so much Marty! I’ve been wanting to learn this song for my grandpa for a while now and you made that possible. I really appreciate what you do👍
Man, heard this song recently and started reminiscing back to when it came out I was just out of high school and through the power of UA-cam found your channel on 6-5-22. Your patience, your voice and the style in which you present this tutorial had me picking up my dusty guitar in the corner, that my friend says a lot. Here’s to cramp callous fingers… again.
I'm a 4 month beginner and have always stayed away from fingerstyle songs because they look difficult but I "picked" up the picking pattern for this in about 10 minutes thanks to your clear and amazing tutorial. I owe most of my guitar playing ability to you so thanks Marty :) I appreciate you a lot from the UK.
I practiced this until i fell over. Then kept doing that until i was hypnotized. Had to walk around and deep breath.. Went on to pink Floyd for awhile. Then back to this again and flowed straight into it. What a ride. Im trippin out. Hahaha "Wooohooooo" "Wow". Im having a blast. Thank you. I love your videos. X
I learned this picking pattern from you a long time ago for C,F,G blues. I've been practicing it ever since, til it became second nature. Makes this lesson easy for me. If I can do it, anyone can! Would love to learn the rest of this awesome sounding song. Thanks Marty!
Sorry, It was on the old pay site. It's pretty simple though. Play this same "Dust In The Wind" picking pattern on all 3 chords. Just fret a C7 chord at the nut and play the pattern 4 times. Then move the same shape up to a F7 play it 2 times. Back to C7 2 times. Then move the same shape up to an G7 play it once, back to F7 once, then back to C7 2 times. Then start over. It's a 12 barre blues holding one chord shape the whole time moving it up and down the neck always picking the exact same pattern. i believe this same picking pattern is also used on Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide".
Marty, you’ve literally taught me all I know on guitar. Thanks man!! You’ve helped me create a foundation to build off from. I hope life is treating you well where ever you may be
You're a legend! I've only been playing the guitar for a couple of months and already I can play a number of songs because of your lessons. Is there any chance you could do a lesson on Mr Intentional by Lauryn Hill?
Thank you for simplifying guitar instruction. I've been playing the guitar for 26 years and 90 percent of what I play I learned by ear. But I've picked up a few tunes from your videos. All i can say is? Great job and keep the videos coming
travis picking is like a tongue twister for the fingers, especially for a beginner like me. this video is so helpful though that after a few weeks of practicing i can finally say that i can do it! thank you so much :-)
I've been following you for years ... thanks for your entertaining way of teaching. I've introduced you to hundreds of guitars players in England and I've purchased many of your lessons. You are my "go-to" instructor - cheers mate!
You are a great teacher of mine for a year now and I now enjoy playing with you daily, You’re AWESOME Marty !! I’ve learned so much with you, Thank you, teacher!
Thx. 40+ years of playing. Self taught, my Puck ng and strumming patterns have been all by ear. Now, I have exact lessons I can grasp. Takes me a day of practice, but I get it. Also, I'm now learning actual guitar, opposed to just playing old songs...
dude you explained perfectly. slow and over and over again just like a teacher. dude thanks so much it made it look so easy. a lot of hours will go into thqt picking rythm from now on. thanks mate !
Just now watching this tutorial and learning Travis Picking. As you add to the pattern, I am reminded of that 80s game, Simon. This sounds so much better than that ever did. Also working on your "More Than a Feeling" lesson. Thanks for putting so much time, effort and care into these videos, Marty.
I really really like the way he keeps his pinky out of the way (left hand) when not using it. Most of rhe time you cant cipher whether the pinky is pressing on a string or not. With this guy , you can tell.
I like the way you do it (finger plucking) one at a time because there are different styles/ patterns in plucking for each type of folk song. love it👌🎶🎶
Great job Marty, hope you can get around to Carry On Wayward Son. How about reviews on a Tubescreamer, a modeling amp like the Mustangs, your Divided by 13, do you still have your SG? This channel is way beyond the old one, MartMusic is setting a new standard, thank you big Sir!
to be honest starting out i struggled a little during your lessons without any tabs on the screen but being a little more advanced i love your lessons mainly because you make it so much fun. and its really helpful of course. great job👍thank you so much for sharing these videos.
I know this is 4yrs later haha but I’m glad someone mentioned Pearl Jam here. Many of eddies songs are so easy to learn once you’ve mastered Travis picking (Just Breathe, Guarenteed, Toloumbe, etc)
MARTY ROCKS! Been active since I was 13! I’m 24 now. Just started getting back into it!!!!! I’ve been learning watching and growing with you since day 1
I can’t believe after less than two months of watching your videos and learning from scratch thatbim ecen pulling off learning this and its all because of you! Thanks Marty!!😊

My Mom used to have me play it everytime one of her friends came over and I got burned out on it and had the finger picking down after all this time until the other day when I actually looked at what I was doing and then I lost it, so, thank you for showing it to me again. I want to see the rest of the song's notes so I will be able to play the entire song once again and my Mom will be surprised still after all of these years when I play it for her again. I never learned how to use a pick but did have my fingerpicking down. Now if I could learn how to use a pick like I want, I can learn the guitar again and this time play like I always wanted to.
MARTIN!! What the heck! YOu have a new CH!?!? I feel like it has been ages. I'm really liking the new vids. You have come a long way! I wish you much more continued success.
Nice to see you again @safenders !!! Welcome!
Marty Music Thank you! good to be learning from the most popular UA-cam guitar teacher once again.
Thanks a million, Marty!!! You habe single handedly been responsible for my learing the guitar. I finally feel like a half way decent intermediate guitarist at 42, after a lifetime of wanting to learn!
If it helps anyone, this is what I put in my phone notes (or write down) to play this intro:
PICKING PATTERN:
A/B, D, G, A, B, D, G
(CHORD SHAPE/B STRING ACTION)
C: 1, 0, 3, 1
Am: 0, 3, 1, 0
C: 3, 1, 0, 3
Am: 1, 0, 3, 1
Just hold the A Chord he said.. it’d be easy he said.. your fingers wouldn’t slice open he said ...
he said c but yeah true
You need ya self an electric guitar
Augustus Joseph my electric is just as bad on my fingers as my acoustic is
Djensper that’s right!
Gotta get dem calluses me boy
I dont think people talk about this often but I think having played the piano before learning guitar makes fingerpicking a lot easier to learn
"Hey guys marty here!" God that lights me up! Haha I remember the first time I heard it with my brand new guitar trying to learn if you wanna sing out by cat Stevens. If it wasn't for marty I'd have never learned anything. Thanks so much bud
I'm usually very good at finger picking. But this particular pattern is soooo simple yet soooo difficult. This is gonna take a lot of practice for me. BTW, thank you, #martyshwartz I have been watching you for years, pretty much since you started making videos. And you have taught me so many songs. I love your teaching style and how you break everything down. You are one of the original youtube guitar tutors. Much respect you know your instrument. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
And you know those mother fuckers we’re just stoned and picked up a guitar and said hey this sounds great.
I used to play acoustic guitar ... we're talking over 30 years ago! -- and I played this song with this picking style. It's all coming back to me watching your video/s!!! Such a big help. Thx, Marty!!!
I'm a beginner and this video gave me so much hope that I can really learn and play the song :) Thank you so much for this tutorial, you make it really easy to follow along and learn!
Marty I have learned three songs with you so far. This is the fourth song. I don't ever comment on any UA-cam videos, I think mainly because I spent the last 35 years in the Technology industry, but I was compelled to comment. YOU ARE AWESOME!!! My son and daughters heard me playing Metallica "Nothing Else Matters" and gave me a big complement. I learned it all from your videos. I have been messing with these guitars since high school. I play on an Applause by Ovations and a Epiphone Dot Natural. I had a Fender Mustang 66 back in the day. Thank you Marty for being patient and just down to earth. Obviously came from my generation. Stay cool.

Marty you are my favorite teacher by far that i have found on here that does a great job breaking chords and songs down. Thank you, please keep going! you're awesome man!
Marty and one other guy have literally taught me how to play guitar via their UA-cam channel. I'm so grateful these exist
THANK YOU!!!! - just on a note, I got the picking and the melody, but I was totally off on the rhythm and even when I went as fast as I could it sounded like a total different thing. It was puzzling me! So, I dedicated my weekend to fix the rhythm and I was only able to do it by using the first few seconds of this video and setting the playback speed to 0.5 and then to 0.75 and playing along 100 times. I noticed my timing was way off by doing that and I was able to fix it! Now my intro sounds very close to the real thing, but my fingers are bleeding hahahah.. Great tip for whoever is learning and having trouble after getting the picking: Slow down the playback time and watch his fingers!
Please iam having the same problem please help
I tried slowing down the video but cant get it😭
I’m having the same problem... I got the picking pattern down before he even finished explaining it and can play it at full speed easily. But the rhythm is so off. I tried slowing down the video and I still couldn’t get it to sound right. I need some serious help.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I have watched over a dozen videos on Travis picking, and you have been the first teacher that slowed it down so beautifully, that I could actually learn the method. I'm psyched to become a pro at it, like you! Rock on, brother, rock on! Many blessings to you and may your gift get stronger and more magnificent!
Thank you so much Marty! I’ve been wanting to learn this song for my grandpa for a while now and you made that possible. I really appreciate what you do👍
Man, heard this song recently and started reminiscing back to when it came out I was just out of high school and through the power of UA-cam found your channel on 6-5-22. Your patience, your voice and the style in which you present this tutorial had me picking up my dusty guitar in the corner, that my friend says a lot. Here’s to cramp callous fingers… again.
Wow, Marty js just an amazing teacher. I thought this would take days to master, it only took a little over an hour.
I'm a 4 month beginner and have always stayed away from fingerstyle songs because they look difficult but I "picked" up the picking pattern for this in about 10 minutes thanks to your clear and amazing tutorial. I owe most of my guitar playing ability to you so thanks Marty :) I appreciate you a lot from the UK.
Thanks you Marty Ive had a couple beers but I was able to follow along. Thnks you
Rutten’s Delight!
@@biffissimoWOOO 🎉
I practiced this until i fell over. Then kept doing that until i was hypnotized. Had to walk around and deep breath.. Went on to pink Floyd for awhile. Then back to this again and flowed straight into it. What a ride. Im trippin out. Hahaha "Wooohooooo" "Wow". Im having a blast. Thank you. I love your videos. X
Thanks 2019! Have strummed for decades...never traverse. Only video that showed ne exactly how to do it. Didn't want to practice it incorrectly... Thx
First song fingerstyle thank you Travis (btw first video of yours also) i know its an old one but amazingg!!!
I learned this picking pattern from you a long time ago for C,F,G blues. I've been practicing it ever since, til it became second nature. Makes this lesson easy for me. If I can do it, anyone can! Would love to learn the rest of this awesome sounding song. Thanks Marty!
thanks Tom
autocrow I can't find that anywhere. Do u have a link to it? I'd appreciate it.
Sorry, It was on the old pay site. It's pretty simple though. Play this same "Dust In The Wind" picking pattern on all 3 chords. Just fret a C7 chord at the nut and play the pattern 4 times. Then move the same shape up to a F7 play it 2 times. Back to C7 2 times. Then move the same shape up to an G7 play it once, back to F7 once, then back to C7 2 times. Then start over. It's a 12 barre blues holding one chord shape the whole time moving it up and down the neck always picking the exact same pattern. i believe this same picking pattern is also used on Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide".
Marty....I am a drummer and learning guitar at the age of 48.....You make it easy to learn .....thanks for all you do, sir.
Thank you, I like how you took it slow and broke it down for us.
Marty, you’ve literally taught me all I know on guitar. Thanks man!! You’ve helped me create a foundation to build off from. I hope life is treating you well where ever you may be
You're a legend! I've only been playing the guitar for a couple of months and already I can play a number of songs because of your lessons. Is there any chance you could do a lesson on Mr Intentional by Lauryn Hill?
Thank you for simplifying guitar instruction. I've been playing the guitar for 26 years and 90 percent of what I play I learned by ear. But I've picked up a few tunes from your videos. All i can say is? Great job and keep the videos coming
travis picking is like a tongue twister for the fingers, especially for a beginner like me. this video is so helpful though that after a few weeks of practicing i can finally say that i can do it! thank you so much :-)
I've been following you for years ... thanks for your entertaining way of teaching. I've introduced you to hundreds of guitars players in England and I've purchased many of your lessons. You are my "go-to" instructor - cheers mate!
You are a master. Didactic, patience and a kind teacher. You got my subscription.
You are a great teacher of mine for a year now and I now enjoy playing with you
daily, You’re AWESOME Marty !! I’ve learned so much with you, Thank you, teacher!
can you do john fraunciante tutorials more plz love that guy
john frusciante*
Thx. 40+ years of playing. Self taught, my Puck ng and strumming patterns have been all by ear. Now, I have exact lessons I can grasp. Takes me a day of practice, but I get it. Also, I'm now learning actual guitar, opposed to just playing old songs...
Awesome lesson Marty... going to practice this tonight after work... ✔
Thanks so much Ducati Dude!!!
Can you play it now?
Can you play it now?
dude you explained perfectly. slow and over and over again just like a teacher. dude thanks so much it made it look so easy. a lot of hours will go into thqt picking rythm from now on. thanks mate !
Hey marty, thanks so much! one of my dads favorites, can't wait to show him!
Thanks so much Jason! More new videos coming right here to "MartyMusic" my friend. Stay tuned!
Just now watching this tutorial and learning Travis Picking. As you add to the pattern, I am reminded of that 80s game, Simon. This sounds so much better than that ever did. Also working on your "More Than a Feeling" lesson. Thanks for putting so much time, effort and care into these videos, Marty.
NEXT PART PLEASE, love ur vids btw
I have completed it! just search here at "MartyMusic" thanks again!
It took me about 2 weeks of practicing (like 10 minutes a day), but its so satisfying to play. I love your lessons, thank you!!
Thank you for the amazing lesson
I really really like the way he keeps his pinky out of the way (left hand) when not using it. Most of rhe time you cant cipher whether the pinky is pressing on a string or not. With this guy , you can tell.
Marty you are awesome! Such a good lesson, thank you very very much. Keep the great work.
Thank you so much for the comment and for supporting my channel "MartyMusic" my friend!
I like the way you do it (finger plucking) one at a time because there are different styles/ patterns in plucking for each type of folk song. love it👌🎶🎶
oh Marty, one of my first guitar teachers... 👍
Love the way you break it down into segments. Every guitar teacher should take note.
It’s extremely helpful for us beginners.
Thanks Marty!
Great job Marty, hope you can get around to Carry On Wayward Son. How about reviews on a Tubescreamer, a modeling amp like the Mustangs, your Divided by 13, do you still have your SG? This channel is way beyond the old one, MartMusic is setting a new standard, thank you big Sir!
I really appreciate your support very much Ray! Thanks for the suggestions. Tubescreamer will be coming up in the near future!!!
YES! carry on wayward son !!!
thought you fell asleep at 5:25. Thank you for doing this
I read the real tabs for this song and was so stuck. Then you said to just use a c chord and I was like “wow this guy is smart”
At the age of 73, I feel that I am finally making some progress thanks to you and making good use of lockdown time.
Can you please teach a lesson on Metallica Unforgiven 2?
08:37 - 08:40 thats some words of encouragement, thanks 💓
Hey Marty thanks for another great tutorial could you do bohemian rapshody by queen for a new tutorial please
to be honest starting out i struggled a little during your lessons without any tabs on the screen but being a little more advanced i love your lessons mainly because you make it so much fun. and its really helpful of course. great job👍thank you so much for sharing these videos.
What about after the intro? Its C, G, Am and after??
I like Marty, he is so patient, and clear, for a slow, learner like me.
From this to "Just breathe" by Pearl Jam is just a little step, could you do that please?
I know this is 4yrs later haha but I’m glad someone mentioned Pearl Jam here. Many of eddies songs are so easy to learn once you’ve mastered Travis picking (Just Breathe, Guarenteed, Toloumbe, etc)
MARTY ROCKS! Been active since I was 13! I’m 24 now. Just started getting back into it!!!!! I’ve been learning watching and growing with you since day 1
Melody is 1 0 3 1 0 3 over and over
Chords C and Am
:)
I can’t believe after less than two months of watching your videos and learning from scratch thatbim ecen pulling off learning this and its all because of you! Thanks Marty!!😊
can we see the chorus for this song marty, i would really appreciate it
I will Boice, thanks
