Simplified Guitar hi sir I really like your tutorial could you help me pls?
Hello Jay! Just noticing your comment. What is your question? You could also shoot me an email at jonathan@simplifiedguitar.com. That comes straight to my inbox and I'll respond personally.
i am not gonna help u out because U DIDNT EVEN PUT HOW TOPALY THE CHRONI ON SO HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO KNOW LIKE BRO
You posted this 7 years ago and I haven't seen that awesome D chord anywhere since.
Ive been playing guitar for 2 weeks now and thanks to you know how to play a couple of songs! God bless you! Huge confidence boost for me
Sweet! That's so exciting! I'm glad I was able to help.
Thank you so much! I work in a shelter for battered women who often have children and I really wanted to brighten up there Christmas with music even though I am not skilled at playing guitar. May God Bless you and yours for sharing your gift, especially at this time of year!
What you're doing is so awesome. I'm glad I was able to be a part! Good luck to you
Why can't more people make tutorials exactly like you?
Less than one minute talking and introduction and 7+ minutes of Guitar Tutorial Action, where I can actually learn by looking with my eyes, as if someone would actually be standing in front of me.
It's not that hard, isn't it? Just put a camera and zoom to actually see the strumming pattern clearly.
I will learn and use this songs for this christmas eve, to play to my father, since it's only us two in the family. I'm sure he will be happy!.
Thank you so much for showing how easy it is to get into Guitar!
greetings from Vienna
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying my tutorials. And good luck playing to your Father. I hope you both enjoy it!
Wonderful. Thank you. 👍👍👍
If you're a beginner - read this
As a guitar teacher, part of every beginning students' lessons are the G, C, and D chords (along with a simple pick/strum pattern). A significant challenge for beginners is to change from the G to the D (or any chord), the student must raise ALL their fingers and re-position them for the next chord. And for a beginner, this means thinking about where each finger is to go, then placing the finger in that position. All of us can remember how time-consuming and frustrating that is. The beauty of this video is the instructor has positioned the student's third and fourth fingers in a sort of "anchor" position, which never change. Now, the student only has to consider the first and second finger positions, which they can relate to the existing positions of their third and forth finger. In my opinion, this method will allow the student to change from chord to chord more quickly than the traditional chord finger positions. As for the issue of the chords being alternate/non-standard fingerings, while that is true, if the student finds this method easier to learn and allows them to get playin', then why not?
I hope my dogs enjoy these songs when I learn them. Just trying to make 2020 a little bit better.
They may sing along. Embrace it if they do!
Hopefully it will sweeten up 2021 !
Have you played for the saguaros in the desert?
I’m hoping to sweeten up ‘22. A total newbie, aged 63 🏴
Many thanks. Total beginner here. Made a promise to learn a Crimbo song for ‘22. Many thanks. 🏴
Teaching 3 of these songs to a grade 1 class of ESL students tomorrow in preparations for a Christmas pageant next month! Wish me luck :)
That's awesome! Best of luck to you!
Good for you. 🎄Merry Christmas 🎄
This is perfect! I just bought a used guitar and I am learning Christmas songs for the first time. This will help bring us cheer this holiday. Thank you!
Love how you show the strumming before the song and long enough to have it click in! Thank you for these terrific lessons!
you're very welcome!
Thank you so much! Chords have never been easy for me. Its christmas time, and i want to surprise my family with these wholesome songs!! Your tutorials makes things really easy for me!
- just a beginner guitarist :)
you're welcome. I'm glad to hear that!
A very simply way to teach, and I love the fact that you dont waste time explaining where each finger goes on what fret, its very clean and simple, and for that, I thank you.
Jonathan, you are the man. I've been playing for awhile, however, your chord structure makes the songs that much easier to play. My granddaughter will be very happy to learn your way. Thanks so much for a superb lesson.
Hey Jeff, you're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the chords! I hope your granddaughter enjoys it as much.
Wow! Im a beginner and i suddenly have this feeling i can play Christmas songs in a week haha! Thank you! I never know G, D, C could be played like this! Amazing!
I'm so glad to hear that you've been encouraged! You can do it!
Simplified Guitar wow! Thank u! Im not expecting this (being replied)haha! Advance Merry Christmas! Hats off!
I know right!!...Enjoy.
I love it! And i like the way that your not that talkative like other youtubers do, keep up. Now i'm ready for carolling😂
Thank you so much, I had to play in front of my pupils at my school for a Christmas carnival and even though I’ve been playing for 6 years it really helped to know the base chords for some of these songs. Thanks again so much😃😃
I'm a beginner guitar player and this video helped me too much, I live in a small village in southern Italy and I will play these songs on Christmas eve.
Wish me luck😜
That's awesome! I'm glad I could help. Good luck!
Huda Haymour Thats awesome and beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ Haha I wished I lived in a village in Italy ❤️😍
Hay bro if your a beginner... Use one finger power chords in 👉 open G tuning.. And throw away the low 6th string... this guy is one of the best I've seen on the tube
ARE YOU STILL PLAYING HUDA AND IF SO HOW FAR HAVE YOU PROGRSSED.
Yay! I just started playing worship for our kids church and realized that we are rolling in to December and I don't know any Christmas songs. Thank you! I have learned/ grown so much from your videos!!!
You're welcome Kim, I'm glad to hear it!
Woooooow!!!!Nice timing....less talk more work...i just love it☺☺
Wow it means so much to me to have found it now. Thank you. I'm a amateur guitarist. This is the easiest instructions ever. I'm almost 56 years old and I have no time to waste. Hahaha
Thank you for this! I am planning to do a mini Christmas concert with my students (Kindergartens) on their enrichment class on the last day before Winter break. Your video will definitely help. Thank you 🙏🏼
You have such a nice voice, thank you. This is just what I need so I can play for my Kindergarten RE class
Love the way you show the cord progression ahead. Beautiful
Thanks Jim. Glad you liked it
Great tutorial professor
Thank you so much lesson learn
Love this video tutorial ❤. Thank you soooo much. You helped me review 5 Christmas songs with 3 basic chords; just what I needed before Christmas. I haven't played guitar for a while. My friends and I will be singing carols very soon.
Wonderful! I'm glad it was helpful for you.
Amazing how a good strumming technique makes a whole lot of difference
U have a brilliant voice dude
Thank you so much sir!! This is what I have been looking for. You teach so elegantly.keep doing.glory to god💛
Brand, brand, brand new- yours was the most helpful so far! Merry Christmas!
This is great! I love the strumming practice up front.
I really liked your fingering of the C and D chords which made for quick traditions because you just planted the pinky and ring finger..Good lesson .Thanks
Thanks so much. I am 75 and started about 2 years ago. I did my first song about 1 year ago at a meet-up group. Because of COVID I have just been practicing by my self. I have been looking for a teacher, but no one seems to understand what I want to do with the Guitar, until I listened to you. I hope I sign up for your course soon. Will you have a SIMPLIFED INTERMEDEATE COURSE in the FUTURE. Again thanks for all you Do. Bill Spicer
I like it you have a really nice voice great way of explaining what you are doing without endless chatter you don't need words just show it love it
Quel bonheur de pouvoir à Noël prochain gratter pour mon premier petit enfant , ces jolies chansons traditionnelles merci beaucoup ! 😊🎸🎸🎸🇫🇷
I've been practicing the ukulele now for almost a year. My husband surprised me and bought me a guitar because I love it so much. This is more difficult than the ukulele. But the ukulele helped me build callouses.
I'm the opposite, I'm a guitarist and got a ukelele. I hope you enjoy the guitar and may I reccomend marty music, he has videos on songs and also tips for playing. Have fun!
you dont only have a talent at guitar but you also have a talent at singing
Hey David, thanks!
I thought you did well in guitar and I played with members who used to play with Santana....
David Zatica yeah dude
I missed the word "only" the first time and thought "that's a little harsh"😂
love love love it...was about to give up until i find this...thank you
Hey Kereta. You are most welcome. Very glad that you didn't give up. Good luck to you!

You're welcome, James!
This is amazing! I learned a lot.
Also, you have a great voice.

Because it's almost Ber Months 😍😘
Carol time on the 1st of Septembet, yeepeeeyyy 💕 Merry Christmas to y'all.
It was finally time! Every year I give a shot then give up. 5his year, I find this vid!! Yay!
That's awesome. I hope it breaks that cycle for you!
@@SimplifiedGuitar lmao Already has! Thanks
Thank you. I literally keep my guitar tuned a step back so using a capo it was pretty easy.
Amazing just found it,hope this will an 85 year old beginner a nice boost
Hey Keith! It's never too late to learn. Get my chord family cheat sheet on my website and start with learning those chords. You can play thousands of songs if you just learn those. It's a great place to start. simplifiedguitar.com
Nice simple lesson. These aren't the actual chords for the songs but it will work beautifully for the fam and a couple 7 year olds. Thank you!!
Your also good at singing,wow!
Thanks!
ARMYYY!! And I agree with you!
I really like the way the next chord is shown makes it easier to keep up great teacher thank you
You're welcome Wayne. I'm glad you've enjoyed the lesson!
Why is it that you make it Soooooo simple while other guitarists could make it Soooooo hard!! You've done a great job!! Thank You!
You're welcome, Graham!
Thank you ❤️your doing a great help to all the beginners
Absolutely the best Xmas tutorial for a beginner like me! Thanks so much!
Just learning guitar. I have never seen those positions for C and D chord. Nor do I see them on any chord charts. I notice you using that D position on other videos...Interesting and makes change easier...
crucettij I’m also learning right now and noticed the same thing! The D and C chords looks so much easier like that.i guess we will learn more cool tricks as we get better 🤓 good luck with your progress!
The C chord actually is C a is D/F#
I had the same question and then I looked up this Chord positioning and it’s called Cadd9
Thank you very much. You doing a good job. All the best
You're welcome, and thanks for the kind words!
thank you so much - you just saved me! I volunteered to play a xmas party cos our annual guitar player can't make it. I haven't played in years and have a week to learn a promised 10 for a drunken crowd. You are awesome!
Hey Nigel. You're welcome. I'm glad the tutorial was helpful for you!
Amazing!!! Best tutorial. Less talk, more doing. Great job.
Thanks Steve
thank you for making it easy to learn. May the Lord bless you !
great you gave me a lot of hel thank you are very good teacher god bless you
Hey Jonathan ! Could you please do a video on how to switch the chords smoothly? I know all my chords but i find it hard to switch smoothly .
wow very nice ..just simple way you explain to play the guitar
Thanks. Glad you liked it!
Loved it! The strumming is what I have to perfect but I found more Christmas songs I can play. For next year with my 5th graders!
Hi I'm a bit slow can you tell me the exact strumming pattern he used? Is it all Up Up or Down Up? Much appreciated if you could reply thanks
this song s deep on so many levels.
Kann man mit ein wenig Erfahrung super gut nachspielen, Danke dafür!
Thank you so much...easy to follow...im not the easiest of students..but i managed to pick this up fairly easy...im off to practice now..
you're very welcome. I'm glad I could help!
Thanks. Just goes to show that simple is goog too.
Awesome lesson! I have been playing a very long time, but this is cool for anybody. Thank You!
You're welcome! Glad you think so
Prepping to do some caroling with the fam, I thought it might be fun to dust off my mandolin to take along.... Well, I needed some easy-to-play songs, in a key that suits our mostly tenor & alto group, and this absolutely fits the bill! The strumming practice was useful too, since I am suuuuuper rusty!
Good One - I'm an absolute beginner and this was a great help - thanks
You're welcome. Glad to hear it.
Simple stuff so well explained , played a d made easy!
Thank you very much for this wonderful sharing of your talents. Merry Christmas!
