@@hectorgonzalez9170 It’s what ever version you want it to be my friend. My tutorials are all about keeping classic songs alive for new generations. Now, anyone can learn this great song on guitar and play it how ever they want… I’d love to hear your version Hector. Just saying!

@@stevendavls2109 Hello my Friend, so many great Elvis Presley songs, so little time. I’ll have a closer look!

@@bestself2438 well if you like Yacht rock… I’m sure you’ll find plenty more options for your set list on my channel… just saying…

@@ronlarge7024 Hi Ron, thanks for reaching out. I understand that TC Helicon no longer makes a GXT Harmonizer which is unfortunate... and yes, it has pitch control on the harmonies. There are still a number of manufacturers like BOSS that make vocal harmony pedals. I’ve watched a couple of videos on them and they look great. Now as far as the Beat Buddy back beat is concerned… with the exception of a few of my first videos I actually put the back beat and BPM in the actual video but you have to watch the introduction of each video to see it, because it appears at different times. At minute 1:39 of the Draggin’ The Line video you’ll see it at the bottom left corner under the picture of the Beat Buddy. It’s one of the things I do to get more people watching the entire video. 😉 Thanks for watching my friend!

Thank you Troy!

@@GuitaristAmberSky Thank you AmberSky!

Thank you my friend. I always appreciate positive feedback.

Thanks Robert, Tom Petty is a must have in anyone’s repertoire of songs!

@@TheStrumminCanuck always great to hear from you! Thanks for the positive feedback!

Thanks for the positive comment my friend. The back drop you ask? Amazon is amazing for things like that!

Thanks AmberSky, as always, you are a great supporter of this channel. Very much appreciated!

@@minorgray thank you for your positive comments!

@@darrenbaugh6579 thanks for posting a comment my friend!

@@user-ss8ek9vq9l thank you for this great compliment!

@@GuitaristAmberSky thanks AmberSky, I always appreciate your feedback and support for this channel!

@@patrickluley555 Hi Patrick, thanks for your inquiry. I’m using a TC Helicon Harmony GXT and a Beat Buddy drum pedal. If your interested, below is a link to a gear run down I did some time ago that reviews what I use in my video’s. If your interested, I hope you have a look. ruclips.net/video/edz9c32rkbA/видео.htmlsi=ccfOTV9LB3vjtFs4

@@myacousticlounge I’ll definitely have a look. Thank you so much!

@@mistergrendel32 Hey, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. This is basically a 4/4 8th note strumming pattern…. 1⬇️2⬆️3(muted)⬇️4⬆️5⬆️6⬇️. Don’t focus to much time trying to learn a strumming pattern my friend. With Regular practice a strumming pattern will come naturally to you. As I always like to say, play the song, not a strumming pattern. Good luck!

@@myacousticlounge Thanks Troy.

Hey Steve, not sure I understand your comment? Are you suggesting this cover lesson is to fast?

@@myacousticlounge correct you don't slow down the chords at all so it is hard to keep up.

@@stevegray5548 oh I see, gotcha. I appreciate the feedback Steve. I use the Beatbuddy so it does keep a steady and consistent tempo. It can be challenging if your trying to follow along at this tempo. Is “playback” an app?

@@myacousticlounge no it's in the setting on the video itself. you can slow down or speed up the video

@@stevegray5548 great advice, I appreciate you sharing this information with others that might read these comments. Thank you!

Thanks my friend, I love these classics!

Thank you for your positive comments. Nothing beats the old classics. If you like Andy Kim and this type of music, you’ll find my channel has many similar songs. I hope you subscribe, follow my channel and check out many other classic I have on this channel. Thank you my friend.

@@myacousticlounge I’m not a fan of Andy Kim tbh , I heard it on a music reaction channel I visit regularly and realised that loved it from when I was a kid , I’m mid level to incompetent on the acoustic guitar so I enjoy tuneful but easy to play songs , i suspected this track fell into that category and just to be sure I looked to see if anyone had actually uploaded a tutorial .. Voila !! Thank you so much , yes of course I’ll subscribe and like and I’ll take you up on checking out your content. Again , thank you 🙏 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thank you my friend!

Thank you AmberSky!

Thanks Robert!

Hi Doug, thanks for this great comment. Hope you subscribe and follow my channel!

You have a great presentation of your style music Please keep up the videos

Thanks for leaving a positive comment! Hope you like, subscribe and share!

Thanks Jim. I appreciate the positive comment!

Thanks AmberSky, I’m this is a great, easy song and a good fit for the Acoustic Lounge.

Thanks my friend!

Hi Doug, I believe you’ve discovered where the settings are listed in my tutorial. So you know. All of my BB settings are listed in the introduction. There may be an exception in my earlier tutorials. In those cases I’ve added that information to the description of the video. Hope you like, subscribe and share my videos. Thanks!

Haha! Yes, great minds do think alike my friend. The guitar I’m using is my Yamaha FG Transacoustic. I use it for busking mostly because I love the built in reverb and chorus effects in the guitar. It’s fun to play!

Hi Doug, I’m not sure I understand what your asking me. Is this a general question as to my preferred Beatbuddy settings? Or are we asking about this song specifically?

I see you have told the setting in video It is so helpful I just got a beat buddy It’s amazing Do you use T C helicon play acoustic?

@@DougGodfrey-qr4to I do have a TC Helicon play acoustic. In my video tutorials, I’m using a TC Helicon Harmony GXT which is very similar but has less features.

Thank you! I appreciate your positive feedback. I hope you subscribe, like and share my channel.

Thanks Wendy, i appreciate the positive comment! I hope your subscribe, like and share my channel.

Hi Mandy, thank you leaving a comment. This is a very basic 6/8 strumming patter. I have some slap strums and nuances unique to my style of playing but at the core of this song, it’s simply a 6/8 time signature. Below is a tutorial I found and I really like the way this host explains 6/8 strumming. I’ve never done a video outlining how to do this myself so I’ve attached this one I’ve found. I hope this helps. This is a beautiful song and definitely worth learning. ruclips.net/video/a8HzyqvBdOk/видео.htmlsi=mKVu9w5WvSrYgZSM

Thank you for your positive comment!

Thanks for this honest comment. I made these changes for a few reasons. A bit of a read but allow me to explain. My channel analytics show the average watch time of my videos is only 6 minutes? The average length of my tutorials before this change was between 10 to 15 minutes. I’m sure you can appreciate that It takes a great deal of time to put these videos together. To learn that very few people watch the entire video is a bit of a shock. The second reason has to do with copyright. You may have noticed that many of the RUclips content creators who have more than 100k followers don’t do a cover. This is because they will instantly get a copyright on their video if they do. For those that are trying to make money off of RUclips, doing a copy of a song doesn’t help. As soon as you get a copyright, any money from that is generated from the video goes to the original song writer and not the content creator. So, I’m making an effort to separate the cover from the lesson. The covers have newly added chord charts to follow, so if your more advanced in your guitar playing, this may be all you need and you don’t need the “lesson” Lastly has to do with content. RUclips loves content. And is pushing for “video shorts” The more videos you put up the better chance a video will get seen. I truly love putting these videos tutorials together but they are time consuming. At this moment in time, I have not monetized this channel so I’m doing this completely for free. As of today, my tutorials have been viewed more than 600k times and yet I only have 4K followers? I’m simply looking to gain more followers and have my tutorials viewed in their entirety. Will I keep this formate? It’s to early to say. I’m just trying to find a format that gets my video tutorials watched and more people following my channel.

@@myacousticlounge yeah, it's hard to guess which way is the "right" way (according to RUclips algorithms...)

And some more feedback, the beatbuddy settings are my favourite part! (I love my beatbuddy)

@@thatbusinesstrainer1414 thanks again for commenting. It’s all in an effort to get noticed. Sometimes when I search up how to play a song, the tutorial I made is so far down on the video list people simply don’t scroll that far to see it. It’s really no different than a Google search. The one that pays for that first slot get the business. In the RUclips world, The ones that have the most followers get the first few slots because the advertising gets seen more. The RUclips algorithm will be the death of me! RUclips recognizes 100k follower mark and that’s my goal. I’ve been doing RUclips tutorials for 5 years now. I have 188 tutorials, 600k views, countless hours putting together these tutorials and again…. only 4K followers. I’ve got to try something new my friend!

I noticed you a couple of weeks ago because I was looking for a Tom Petty tutorial. I look for visual aids such as strum patterns and chords. I love this way and your background is boss and you are very clear with your instruction. I have you saved to watch later tonight for my Lesson. I’m very excited!😊

Hi Andrew, In many cases, the strumming pattern can change in a song when transitioning from verses to choruses. I personally incorporate a number of muted slap strums, variations and Nuances, unique to me when I Strum cords. It’s not always consistently the same throughout the song and it’s not always the same as the original. Keep in mind, there’s no right or wrong way to strum chords to a particular song. What’s important is learning the general rhythm. As you practice and get the general rhythm of a song down you’re trying to learn, you’ll find variations and nuances that work for you. My advice to you is play the song, not a strumming pattern. With that, I’m loosely playing… A Chord ⬇️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬇️ D Chord ⬇️⬆️⬇️⬇️ E Chord ⬇️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬇️ I’m also going to include this video tutorial (below) I did about strumming patterns and their perceived importance. If you have some time please have a look. ruclips.net/video/Tugs7htczpY/видео.htmlsi=g5wZjiduoow2UXTP
