The original recording is about 15 cents flat so I corrected it to concert pitch. This is a 1991 Gibson J-160E (acoustic/electric) played through a Vox AD15VT set to AC30TB with min bass, min mid and max treble and the amp is close mic recorded with a Tascam DR01 hand-held digital recorder. Strings are Masterbuilt Phosphor Bronze .012 - .052. My performance, with compression, is mixed with the backing tracks and the whole mix is limited. This is the way the Beatles recorded these early tunes. It is difficult to duplicate the sound with just the guitar and amp. No tabs.
My videos are really intended for accomplished guitarists who want to polish up their Beatles repertoire and can benefit from "seeing" how a song is played - I am not a guitar teacher and do not provide tabs. I welcome specific questions. If the various chords that I am playing are not familiar to you then I would suggest that you visit some of the many free guitar chord sites. I had to learn these songs by listening to vinyl records and watching live performances on tv.

You are my hero
What guitar plectrum(s) did you use?
As a 10 year old I would play this on the jukebox. i just loved it then and still do.
I love this song. John wrote it and had George sing it for the recording.
The Kings of melody and harmony.
So beautiful! I had this song stuck in my head all day and to listen to just the guitar parts is just divine.
one of the only ways to listen to the beatles on youtube... AND IT'S EDUCATIONAL. Love your channel!
You are the greatest one on YT... I've been watching your videos since I was 13 years old, now I'm 22
Brilliant song, thank you John Lennon for such a gem of a song. Brilliantly played .... superb indeed
It´s a honour to listen to you playing.
greeting¡¡
The Beatles, I think, used dominant seventh chord voicings extremely well!!! Another wonderful video as usual!!!
I listened it again and again... what a beautiful song... I love how you play Harrison and Lennon's guitars!!! "Very good George!"
Greetings from Argentina!
Hello, i'm from Russia. I very love your cover, thank you very much
I could listen this all day. Awesome riffs man, much respect...
That guitar sound is lovely
The outro was amazing 😍😭
THANX I'VE BEEN PLAYING GEORGE'S PART WRONG WITH FULL CHORDS. YOURE AMAZING & THE BEST!!!
i really admire you, your attention to detail, and your work
The Beatles were awesome! Great job on the two guitar part. John and George put two guitars together well here.
I still love The Beatles.
The early Beatles. From Revolver onwards was junk. From 1958-1966 they wrote classic love songs and Paul had not had the auto accident yet.
Just wanted to write that I really appreciate your videos.
Cool harrison and jhon lennon are so good at guitar
John is such an underrated guitar player ... He is a master a rhythm
Love the guitars to a beautiful song.
the guitar tone is perfect! great video!
Thats a great incite.i used to play it from the "beatles complete" chordbook.thankyou
splendid job gents! the lads would be proud of ya!
Sir, I think Ive asked this before but you said that you didnt take the bass note with it. But the minor barre chords youre doing with your thumb, like the hendrix way. Is that a matter of practice? I feel like my hands can't reach it, I either mute the G string or mute the low E string with my ringer which is on the a string but pushing towards the E.
The things is, I can play barre chords with my thumb without the pinky, so that you leave the a string out of it but only have the d string and low e as bass. But using all my fingers in this method feels too stacked. You got any advice?
The upper guitar is Harrison. I am not plucking the low E string. The heel of my thumb provides a very light pressure for playing the chords. My thumb simply feels comfortable where it is and also mutes the low E string.
❤️ the lesson! Excellent song, looks tough to play, U sure made it look easy, ! Much respect👍😁😎✌️😁👍
Great as always!
Outstanding instrumental music!
Excellent - love your videos and really instructive - thanks!
Amazing! Thank you very much. Greetings from Chili
Very good and very well!!!!!!!!
Super. Bravo! 👍
very good who ever was playing
muito bom
i cannot help to sing along!
hi there, just to know.... when you play G#m Gm F#m in George's guitar ...are you prssing B and E wih your index finger? I find this way to do G#m Gm F#m more confortable than doing the complete barre
many thanks!
Thanx for your comment. If you watch my right hand and also note which strings are vibrating you will see that I am only picking the A and D strings. In order to quickly position my fingers, and to prevent erroneous notes from sounding, I am actually playing G#m7 (Abm7) X64444, Gm7 X53333 and F#m7 X42222.
you're right, I meant Lennon (not Harrison), I thing is basically the same notes but adding the pinky finger on D string. thanks so so much for sharing your knowledge. very generous!
Well, that's a different issue. In Lennon's part the low E string is not strummed so there is no reason to use the full barred chord. My thumb serves the dual purpose of muting the low E string and creating the pressure for the rest of the fingers creating the chord. With a properly set up guitar, good finger placement and reasonable hand strength (from practicing) a full barre should be quite easy. If you have very small hands than a 3/4 sized narrow neck guitar would make playing a lot easier.
Masterful
Thanks very much for commenting. Please check out the description for setup and recording info. Please like, subscribe and check out all of my Beatles videos at ua-cam.com/channels/e8V_SYjLoXs33AybZypQfA.html
Fantastic.
Harrison does the descending minors with an added 7th, right? I've always played it this way and it looks like you are too, but every tab I see does not feature it. I'd love to confirm if you can. Thanks
It'a minor 7th. The first being Abmin7 [464444]
Fantastico
I'm sorry if this question doesn't fall into the realms of what an accomplished guitarist would ask (I far from being so, though I manage to figure out what you're doing in your videos at least enough to improve my playing a lot), but why do you choose to play the chords in 1:15, for example, with a different fingering for George and John? Can one actually hear the difference? Or is it that you know George used to play barred chords with his index finger, and John did so more often with this thumb?
Apart from that, now that I've made up my mind to send you a message, I'd like to thank you for your generosity on sharing with us these videos. I'm sure a lot of time and effort has gone into learning to play the Beatles' songs with such accuracy. Though I consider myself a beginner as far as my guitar playing is concerned, I'm quickly improving, since being able to watch what's being played apart from hearing it is a huge help and encourages me enormously to try and try until I find out what you're doing.
Thanx for your comment. I honestly didn't really think about it when I recorded this song. But, if you watch as many videos of the Beatles playing live as I have, you will get a sense of which chord voicings Harrison and Lennon favor. In this particular case the strumming is concentrated on the E, B, G and D strings so it really wouldn't matter which voicings were used. I can't say for certain that it is precisely what Lennon and Harrison played on the studio recording but I am quite certain that they played the chords at the frets indicated in the video. I use the stereo versions of the songs and then apply EQ to bring up the parts I'm interested in hearing. That along with decades of playing experience allow me to determine what is being played. Also, regarding the use of the thumb, it's there not to play the low E string, but for leverage on the other fingers fretting strings. Although not generally taught as proper technique, for those with larger hands or on very narrow necked instruments, this is an easy way to play chords concentrated on the higher strings.
Very nice man
Fisrt: Great video. Second: Is that chord you play in 0:28 an Am?
P/D: You are a great help to my Beatles guitar practising. Thanks :)
Thanx for your comment. Yes, Am.
very good
También digo que me gusta mucho esta canción
17th who viewed this Wonderful Video!
Excellent!!!!!
Anyone know the tabs for the little riff?
The video is 1080p! Watch on a large screen device and slow down or pause as required. You can tell what string is being plucked by the vibrations and the fingering is quite clear. If you see a chord you don't know use a reverse chord finder like www.gootar.com/guitar
ACE!
Thank you. Great tone. How do you record a split screen?
Thanx for your comment. Google "layering video"
great job!

Grooovy have subbed VG.
Danny
Greatttttt
GOODDDDDD!!!!
Wow!
Im very thankful, but i cannot sound like the first chord that you play, i've been checking your fingers position a lot of times and when i play with the same position i cannot sound like you
I have tuned down my gitar a little bit and now i sound like the song
As indicated in the first comment, and in the video, you should read the video description before posting comments/questions. In the video description I explain that the original recording is 15 cents flat.
"NEAT" 😊 🆒️
How long does it usually take you to master these songs?
Thanx for your comment. I've been playing for decades. When I was 12 and using vinyl records it might take me weeks or months. Now that I have digital recordings and digital audio apps along with videos of live performances it might only take a day or two. If you study a particular artist what you learn about their techniques, go to chord voicings, etc will make it easier to figure out what they are doing in other songs. I must admit that I did inherit a good ear from my mother.
Великие!
