    John, what a great lesson. I like the way you teach. You remove fear and just break it down. I am a learner and have seen countless videos on how to play this. I would just watch, but you put me at ease with fingers on fretting this incredibly hard tune. I love it and the fact that you dressed up, RUclips should give you extra points. I am also playing a great Taylor 324CE.
