This, my friends, is a definition of good guitar lesson. This guy doesn't talk too much, give all the details necessary, offer the easier and the harder ways of playing. Thank you for a good lesson
I agree. There are some that talk for the first three minutes. I give them two then find someone else to teach me. I didn't sign on to listen to theory. Shut up and teach me the song!
@@j.stevencarr5719 IKR....so many times I don't get to where they actually start playing, due to all the yapping. I also like when some tutors play the entire thing first because we experienced guitarists sometimes only need to see it being played and other times, the tutor has it completely wrong. 👍
Dude! I’m 65...I’m retired military....and retired law enforcement. You being a bit more experienced than me, you give me inspiration. I recently lost both parents...acting as their Executor. Stress was killing me....I wanted to hike the Appalachian Trail, but parental issues intervened. So....I picked up this guitar (an old Sigma that I bought in the Navy and never played....but it travelled the world!!). You -- not unlike Dale “Greybeard” Sanders, who at 82 completed a thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail -- folks like you remind me that while not as chipper as I (we) used to be -- age? It’s just a gol-durned number. Keep on strumming’, brother!
@@captaincoyote1792 Hi thanks for the reply I am so glad to give you inspiration, I always believe in looking to the bright side of life, I have just had treatment for cancer and my whole family were scared for me and the only way I could cope was to be bright and cheerful, moaning would not have changed my prospects whereas being happy created and aura of hope and so far, 2 years have passed, I feel great. My wife of many years is my rock my soul mate my life and boy was I glad that if anyone got cancer in our family it would be me because I can cope when its me but I may fall to pieces if were my wife child or grandchild,. So make the most of life my friend Good luck with your future keep smiling best regards Clive UK.
Thank you for this. My little brother passed in December and he had a lot of Johnny Cash on his playlist. I inheranted his guitar and can't set it down, so I found myself here. Thanks again.
Hi all This is Henri from UK. 69 years old retired bored and about to pick up the guitar. This guy is the best, simple easy but concise and I cant wait to get started.
I almost passed this one up. Now. It's a favorite, reminding of my pops and our adventures in the deserts of TX and NM. Thank you for this precious gift. You really are a teacher in every sense.
His lesson is likely the best lessons out here. On point, does not waste time, and slows down exactly where you might get confused . He draws you in on how simple it can be and naturally adds the next complexity. If you ever decide to post videos to teach, use this guy as a template
I've been trying to learn guitar now for a month, I have seen a lot and lot of tutorials, this is by far the most comprehensive. thank you very much. I'll have to show off to my kids now.
Hope you are staying with guitar, i'm 70 and started last year. Motivational video by GUITAR as a METAPHOR for LIFE ruclips.net/video/ztFygjGxMYA/видео.html you will find it inspiring.
This is what you call and easy, fast learning, FREE lesson that actually helps. Just got my guitar out after years of not playing, starting off with the basics again and been looking for something easy to play all day!
For a beginner, this is fantastic! I have been playing everyday for 2 months learning my chords but the helped me learn the song in about a day! Thank you!
I love your deep voice. Beautiful! Reminds me of my daddy. He is 89 now and can still Get it with all JC s songs and also Conway Twitty! Thanks for a great lesson.
David, this is the first time watching you content but you seriously broke it down for me, the introduction to playing C and G a different way makes so much sense WAY easier for me to play! thank you so much!
Excellent instructor who has great communication skills anyone can understand! This video packs a lot of playing instruction into less than 10 minutes.
Dude... I'm just getting into this, u actually teach it REALLY well and u break it down even better. This is awesome. Do you have any basic videos? Like guitar 101
As a newby of 4 weeks this is exactly what Im looking for, very well explained and demonstrated. I just need my fingers amputating and sowing back on in different angles :)
this is hands down the best tutorial have watched over the years. Very clear concise, including a solid build up in technique, and its mad fun. Thank you
Rick Williams - Man, your videos and laid back method of teaching Guitar is EXCELLENT. for the beginner and intermediate Guitarist. I really use the suddle nuances you add to cord changes. The simple cords and cord progression gives the beginner somewhere to start playing actual songs which will keep the interest level up!!!. GREAT JOB!!
Sir i know im years late but you just saved me a headache on how to move around i can move a round quite well but the c9 to g is eye opening Thank you so damn much haha
Hello, I found this lesson goin' around the web, and... it's great! I like a lot your website and your way of teaching, and the tabs are really original! So, my compliments!
@@bigdog2432 I'm only considering getting a guitar, so I was checking out what the current state of video learning is. I found this lesson to be the type that was quite straight-forward and gives the impression that significant progress could be made with a quick start.
@@bigdog2432 You have a strange idea of what constitutes trolling. This doesn't really strike me as the kind of video that attracts that kind of "discussion."
I guess the hardest part is to blend in the right strumming with the solo notes and make it sound as a continuous rhythm. Great tutorial, easy explained.
Thanx David, one of my favs. Didn't think a three cord learner could nail it. I've left out the lead for the moment, will work on that on my next sessions.
Thanks Mr David. Loved it . Please do more Johnny Cash songs and i like the way of you show the chords(images) on video bcoz it's easy to learn. Love from India.
David, thank you very much for your guitar lessons. They are extremely easy to follow and very clear but I would also like to know if it’s possible what guitar you’re playing it sounds just right to me anyway perhaps you could just let me know thank you very much, Graham, Harrison
Love your lessons ... I can just hear you doing Elvis songs and Everly Brothers .... and definitely Ricky Nelson .... I know they are all old .... but they are classics ! Oh, Simon & Garfunkle, CSN and even CCR too .... and maybe Rod Stewart too !
Thanks for the tutorial! It really helped me out! I love Johnny Cash, and so does my dad, so I am practicing it, so I can surprise him on Christmas. :)

You’re very welcome!
This is maybe the first guitar lesson that motivated me instead of demotivating. Thanks man 🥲
The more I watch David's tutorials, the more I respect his style. Always very clear and concise and seems to suit my playing level. Thanks, David.
Thank you for this. My little brother passed in December and he had a lot of Johnny Cash on his playlist. I inheranted his guitar and can't set it down, so I found myself here. Thanks again.
Sorry for your lost man
Sorry for your loss and I'm blessed hearing you have something you can remember and keep about him.
Keep at it … he hears you!
Life is tough … I have found guitar helps deal with it. For you … there is added benefit
I’m only 16 years old but I absolutely LOVE old music. So learning this was very fun. Thank you.

This is the very best guitar, Ring of Fire, lesson I've seen on the tube. Thank you so much.

Excellent instructor who has great communication skills anyone can understand! This video packs a lot of playing instruction into less than 10 minutes.
And your singing? Very impressive! I may not know how to pick on that guitar but I know when I hear a good voice. Thanks for posting.
Dude... I'm just getting into this, u actually teach it REALLY well and u break it down even better. This is awesome. Do you have any basic videos? Like guitar 101
If @ThisOldTony gave guitar lessons, this is what it would be like. And that's a high praise.
Beautiful version and encouraging. It will be a very special surprise and gift for my lovely wife. We both love Johnny Cash 🤗🎶💎🌈☀️
As a newby of 4 weeks this is exactly what Im looking for, very well explained and demonstrated. I just need my fingers amputating and sowing back on in different angles :)

@@bigdog2432 You have a strange idea of what constitutes trolling. This doesn't really strike me as the kind of video that attracts that kind of "discussion."
Joe Ward I’m not falling for your trolling. Take your bullying antics into 4Chan
I echo all previous positive comments. It is truly an awesome lesson. Thank you so much.
Great lesson on a great song. Thanks so much for making it easy for beginners.
I guess the hardest part is to blend in the right strumming with the solo notes and make it sound as a continuous rhythm. Great tutorial, easy explained.
I've never seen a song explained so good. Thank you!
Best site yet for learning, thanks for the great lessons, I dropped a tip in for you. Keep up the fine teachings.
As new i am to guitar playing, this is perfectly taught. Thanks.
Excellent "Ring of Fire" lesson David. Thank you...
Thanx David, one of my favs. Didn't think a three cord learner could nail it. I've left out the lead for the moment, will work on that on my next sessions.
