    I've just stumbled across your channel. I'm from Liverpool in the United Kingdom. Just started to learn to play the guitar this past week or so and this lesson, although I don't know the song is brilliant! I'm strumming away and getting my chord changes pretty well. (Only country singers I know are Chris Stapleton and Oliver Anthony who I had the pleasure of watching a few weeks ago live in Glasgow, Scotland.) Love this lesson, I'm definitely going to be coming back here for some more. Thanks. 👍🏻🎸

    I have learned so much by your videos. I’ve watched so many other videos and couldn’t connect my brain. Thank you for doing this. My dad and mom was my biggest fans, I sing. My dad bought me a guitar at 12 and I didn’t want to learn so I sold it. 🥹😭😭. He could play any instrument and he was a genius who couldn’t read or write but he played guitar and banjo like a star. I’m now 54, He’s passed and my heart cannot find peace until I finally learn to play and go show him at his resting place. I pray often that that guitar he bought me somehow finds its way back to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤❤❤ 🙏

    I've been trying to learn guitar for a long time. I even took lessons in school, but I just never could memorize how all of the chords and commit them to memory. In my head, I can play EVERY SOUND a guitar makes, in EVERY SONG I HEAR...I just can't play them on a guitar. I can't tell you how I hate that. I say I should have been born a guitar, because I sound just like one, just with my voice, not my guitar. I must have 8-9 guitars in my home. I have been saying I'm gonna learn. I'm 57, and there's so much great music in my head and soul. I'm trying to learn on your channel, and I have to say, this is helping me mire than anything I've tried so far. Thanks for being so clear and keeping it simple. Good looking kid ya got there, too. 👍🏼

    I have watched Matt’s videos since November and practiced on a weekly basis and am getting very good. It was beneficial too that when I go to an in person lesson, I tell them I want to play the song like this::: Shows them Matt’s C and G:::
    For example 18 wheels and a dozen roses sounds so much better with Matt’s G and C than regular boring G and C. The boring G and C are also the harder ones to play.
    Thank you Matt for all that you have done for my music career.

    @mikeherbert4154 4 роки тому

    Really appreciated this lesson and the one on "forget the strumming patterns". I've been playing for about year now and can do most of the basic chords, including some of the barr chords, but consistent strumming has been the hardest thing for me to do. I think focusing on the rhythm, as you've taught us, is going to help me a lot. My strumming to date has sounded the same regardless of what I was trying to play. Great job instructing! I've really enjoyed every lesson I've watched.
    P. S. Not only am I a slow learner, but I'm also almost 71. I'm so enjoying learning to play after telling myself my whole life I could never learn to play the guitar.

    • @LonskiBig
      @LonskiBig 7 років тому +2

      He doesn't teach strumming, but says it's about "timing"...Why ??...Because it's more of a "feel" ..If your concentrating on a "by the book" strum pattern, it will be stiff and not sound right....Rhythm and flow simply come with practice the way YOU do it....
