    It's always nice to hear a song at the grocery store and think "I'm going to learn that riff when I get home" then look up a lesson and find Marty teaching it. Marty doesn't even know me, but he sure is a good a friend.

    Marty, a man who helped me learn how to play when I first started learning guitar when I was 13. now I'm 20, teaching my friends and others how to play. Thank you so much.

    You taught me how to play the very first songs that led me on my journey in guitar, now I’m playing more advanced songs and I want to thank you for keeping this channel running and I hope you continue inspiring people to begin playing guitar!!

      @Jeremy Foote yeah, all you have to do is play an arpeggio for the chords and slow it down

      there is no capo in the unplugged version. I wonder how to translate the chords....will C chord become an AIS-Chord ?

  • @mjholiday557
    @mjholiday557 2 года назад

    Great tutorial, as always! I really appreciate your use of a capo to make songs that are in odd or more difficult keys much easier to perform, unlike a lot of other snobby guitar tutors on YT who would prefer to make you suffer trying to play a song in Bb minor instead of just putting a capo on the first fret and playing the song much more easily in Am. Gracias.

    Marty, thanks for everything you do and all the free lessons! You are awesome! As I watch and start to learn more, it would be cool if you would tell us what key the song is in. For me, I can start to see related chords (yes, a little music theory) to the key. And also with the riffs it would be cool to understand which scale things are related to and with perspective to the key. It's great learning songs but have that little bit extra would help us figure out other songs too :). Keep up the great sharing! Much appreciated!
