Love you too Tyler
Hi Tyler 🙋♂️
Tyler: Quit playing guitar
Me, who just spent $500 on a new guitar: WHAT?!
1800 😭😭
I spent 350$ on my GTR😁
In counties like USA, I can get a Fender Player or a good Epiphone for $500. In Russia, I can barely get Fender Squier Contemporary. Offtop, but ugh :(
$1900 on new amp after not playing for 3 years, I'm back baby!
Enjoy dude!
Never play to be on someone else’s level or impress someone else. Play for yourself. Create for yourself. Express your own style. If you can’t shred every note... shred what notes your can. Your best is your style. It’s what makes your playing unique. We can’t all be Van Halen, John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert, Bucket Head, etc. We can only be us. Don’t quit. Play the guitar for you.
Edit: Hendrix is the GOAT. That’s why he’s implied without mention.
I know you at suck at guitar because you didn’t put Jimi Hendrix in that list
@Jayden 2k
Hendrix is implied because he’s the best. He’s the GOAT so he doesn’t have to be mentioned.
You hit the nail on the head. At 60 I just bought another guitar. I was guitarless for years, but I just had to play for me.
Do you honestly play the guitar for just YOU? No human I know does. The purpose of creating music through the vibration of sound is to gain a human reaction through emotion. If we truly were interested in just playing for ourselves and didn't care what others thought, we would not play live for others to experience, we would not record any of our works for others to hear.
Sure, a musician may experience a temporary joy when playing writing or composing a piece of music but after they have played that piece over and over knowing all the changes within the piece it becomes quite dull and boring. At that point, it's simply going through the motions with a lack of emotion. It's why a lot of guitarists generally won't play their solos verbatim to an album version because they become bored on stage going through the motion of repetition.
@@ELECTRICEYEMEDIA I honestly do play for myself and I write/record music to try to put what’s in my brain into constructed expression. They only time I didn’t when was when I was a singer in a cover band. Then I was singing everyone else’s stuff for other people to hear. It felt really empty.
I don't have a guitar, but I haven't quit in my mind.
Why don’t you have a guitar. You must be interested if you’re watching this dude.
@@tonepilot they can be quite expensive
@@Weeblicker Harley Benton will sell you a brand new six string electric for $89.00. I guess that could be too much for some for sure. I’ve seen them at thrift shops too for less than $30.00. The cost of entry has never really been lower.
@@tonepilot oh I know but considering I just dropped 400 dollars on a les paul clone because it felt more comfortable than the cheap ones they get out of people's range very quick
@@Weeblicker For sure. If I win the lottery, I'm buying guitars for people in my town that want to play but can't afford to.
Never quit, you'll regret it. You cant throw away your dreams
Yeah I totally agree
You can, but it's gonna be the biggest regret of your life.
Not just your dreams, but quality time spent on doing something productive and something you love doing.
They say to chase your dreams, but sometimes they chase you. indefinitely, Forever. for. ev. er.
You can't throw them away but they can die.
Playing guitar is like all things in life: it's never meant to be easy or be a shortcut to it, and learning the countless styles and structures to it makes playing guitar so satisfying. I'm glad that I never quit.
Amen
Amen
Ditto the Amens. One of the greatest things about the guitar is there are so many different kinds and styles of 'guitar' - and as many different ways to play one. Paganini, Andres Segovia, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Wes Montgomery, Sabicas, Jimmy Hendrix, Chet Atkins, Joe Satriani, Dimebag Darrell Abbot Tommy Emmanuel, Steve Vai, Tosin Abasi ... the possibilities seem endless.
Absolutely everyone!
Amen brother
I quit.
But.
Quarantine brought me back to my guitar. I can’t imagine 2020 without my guitar.
Man! Same here! Video games just suck now. I live for the guitar struggle again. Oh! And my wife. Yeah. She’s pretty cool too.
Nice
I threw my guitar away during the pandemic.

Title- why you should quit the guitar
Description- Join guitar super system today!
LOL .. Hey, man's gotta make a livin'. :o)
Do you even guitar bro?
When I was 27 I decided on a whim that I wanted to learn guitar. I've never been a good student, I've procrastinated my life away and struggled to push through things.
It's been three years and not for a second have I thought of quitting guitar. For the first time in my life I have something that brings me joy to learn and get better.
I don't think I'll ever stop playing guitar.
I could be more disciplined with my practice though. Definitely^^
Same with me. I decided to pick up guitar at 24... which was January this year ahaha
"nobody can take that away from you" - they can, with a bullet through your wrist. Happened to me. Good news is that years later I play better than I ever did back there, even though the doctors said I would never play again. Yeah, it does hurt to play, but it's worth it. My point, never give up, and don't let anyone tell you that you can "never" do something.
Django Reinhardt!!!!!!
You can never be Steve Vai. Now what are you going to do? LOL
I've quit before for a woman who was out of my league. We moved in together and she said I needed to grow up. I sold all my gear to put a down payment on a house for us. We broke up and I'm now realizing how much guitar meant to me. I'm a guitarist. I've written songs that have given my friends life. I'm glad the woman is gone and I'm glad I've got a new Schecter. The right woman will love that I play guitar. Until then DJENT DJENT DJENT DJENT 0000 000 00 0000 000 00😂😂😂
Some people give up everything for a man/women. Feel bad for yeah. I rather be alone all my life if it means I can express my myself playing tunes.
Happy for you mate ❤️❤️👍
What does "growing up" have to do with quitting guitar?? I think what she really meant was "becoming a boring, average, exchangeable, generic person with a house, a job and money+insurance"
Bro...no..you realize how unattractive you become the instant you sacrifice something you’re passionate about for a girl??? Im glad you learned from it man hope your still shreddin
Try 00 0000 00 00 00 000 0000
I've been playing for 36 years, and I suck at it. You know what? I don't care. Guitar is my escape. That's why I play.
I can totally relate to this.
Me too. Nothing will stop me. Even when I listen to myself play 🤣
Guitar is a musical... well oasis that is unbelievably powerful if either it’s The physical guitar or an Air guitar
Oh and I can Soooo relate to this
I have a shirt that explains me perfectly. It says:
"I play the guitar because I like it, not because I'm good at it 🎸"
😁🎸 I just bought my first guitar for myself last Christmas, before the word pandemic was ever uttered. I told myself before I ever picked up my first guitar that I wouldn't ever quit, no matter what. Even if it took me 20 yrs to learn 1 song, I wouldn't quit. And I still won't.
Thankfully I'll have learned way more than 1 song when 20 yrs hits lol. Not doing too bad these first 11 months considering I haven't taken any in-person lessons and have just been learning from different sources online combined with the little bit of knowledge I had already, like being able to read sheet music, which I learned in 7th grade in like 1992 or '93
Sometimes it feels like giving up but if we stay at it for that time we can see some magic coming!
I'm 55 years old now and I first started to "pick" the guitar when I was about 9 after hearing and watching my step dad playing his guitars. Due to a horrible relationship with him and the fact that he is an ass I never had guitar lessons or even my own guitar when I lived at home and I left home and got married at 17 years old. Through the years I would have a guitar here and there but never had the time or money to take it seriously. Growing up and watching my step dad play, one song I loved was the CCR song Proud Mary. I watched my step dad play the song one time, years later I discovered that he was playing it ALL wrong btw. He was just doing this and this with his two fingers and there was that famous opening line, do do dooo, do do dooo, do do dt dt dah dt dooooooo..... lol like my music talk? He was playing this using just his index and ring finger starting on the 8th fret with his index finger on that top really thick string and his ring finger on the 10th fret of that second thickest string, OK OK I got it... and then I watched a few guitarists on TV playing certain songs and it seemed that they all were using this same finger positioning and playing great songs!! So as a teen I would play his acoustic guitar when he wasn't home and everything got played using that finger positioning (power chord) . Hmm but then I would hear the KISS song Mr. Speed and well they weren't using that style and making all those sounds!! So needless to say the faster more complicated players, EVH for one, and their music I would not try to play. Then when I was about 47 or so and driving semi truck with my kids all grown and making great money and a lot of down time in my truck at night, I decided to buy my first brand new Les Paul guitar, because Ace Frehley played one and from about 1977 on I craved to own a Gibson Les Paul!! The first song I wanted to learn how to play once I figured out that not everything was played in the power chord position was that old KISS song Mr. Speed and after about a week I was able to play it!!! Ohhh I get it now, I see how they do this and then this, thank you to the MANY RUclipsrs who give free KISS guitar lessons!! A big thank you to Marty Schwartz for teaching me that you don't always have to play "exactly" as they did on the record. Now 8 years later I can play along with hundreds of songs I always wanted to play and I can do so fairly well but still nowhere near "stage ready". Thanks to a right shoulder/upper arm injury from throwing a chain over a load of I-beams in 2012 and thanks to breaking my spine in 2017 getting a load of drywall, I am now in constant pain and have to play sitting down, but I play EVERY DAY!! One song I have loved loved loved the guitars on was the Ted Nugent song, "Do it like this", mmmmm that thick and deep juicy sound of that Gibson Byrdland as uncle Ted rips out those opening riffs just gets me right in that special guy place lol. Not being able to find an online lesson or tab for it I had to figure it out for myself and I did and I realized it wasn't such a complicated piece to play, note/chord wise, but that it is more done with the picking hand to get that great sound, I can now play along with him, accept his solos, why is it that no one has any tabs for Ted Nugent's solos? Anyway, now my grand son who turned 18 wants to come out to my house and learn how to play guitar. He says it's not so much because he loves the guitar as it is he just wants to spend time with me. Now while that is fine and dandy, I told him that he must also WANT to play the guitar and be willing to submit to her (the guitar) enchantment! The guitar is a very jealous mistress, I told him. We begin lessons next week.......

Sorry
My grandfather always said, “Learning to play an instrument is the Greatest gift you can ever give yourself, but you have to want it. It has to be earned. If you must have it, that’s what makes you a musician.”
I'm a bass player because I struggle with playing chords. But this sentiment really applys to me when playing bass. Being someone with dyspraxia, hand-eye coordination and precise timing is difficult. But I've learned five songs so far, and now I'm learning my first Iron Maiden song, which is a real challenge! I've been struggling with some of Steve Harris' fills, but this video helps motivate me to keep trying. Someday soon I will get this! I'm stubborn enough to keep going :P.
Hey buddy. I've been a bassist for as long as i can remember and i have dyspraxia. I just wanted to pop by and say. Dont give up. Keep practicing and keep trying to get better. It's been hard but just because something is hard dosent mean you should give up. dont give and keep going.
Dont give on that, I'm not a bass player but Steve Harris is amazing.
Keep going bro! For me what matters is that i'm having fun when im playing. So it doesnt matter if you're playing something difficult or simple, as long as you're enjoying yourself that should be enough of a reason to keep playing!
Keep playing, you're stronger with the power of music !
best of luck to you, never give up!
for me its just fun, its like a sport with no rules where you just get to learn and do new cool shit freely and express yourself or even test yourself to get better, regardless if i "make it" or not i always have to remember its just fun bro
Exactly, there’s no right or wrong way to play. We just get to do whatever the hell we want, I love it
Tyler: 3 Reasons Why You Aren’t Getting better at Guitar
Also Tyler: Why you should quit playing Guitar
I have been playing for 12 years and auditioned for a band for the first time. I have never played worse. It was a tribute for my favorite band too. But I have never felt more motivated to keep at it. The experience alone was better than anything I learned from years of playing at home and jams with friends.
Dude that is tough but awesome. I’ve been playing solo for five years now and am scared shitless to join a band.
For me it’s always been about just playing something that can bring memories to people. My jazz band used to go out and play for retirement homes, and a man had approached me while I was packing up, and he talked about how young he felt when he heard our music. People had danced while we played, and you could tell that it just brought back so many memories. Our director would ask people if they had memories associated with songs we played, and it was always moving to hear just the memories and emotion we could evoke by just playing charts.
I was considering quitting. Then my dad brought me to the generation axe concert and it changed my life. When i heard tosin abasi play, something clicked in my head and opened my eye to music that was so beautiful and twisted
I've been playing guitar on and off since I was 13. I just turned 30 and I only know simple chords and basic theory. A friend of a friend reached out to me because she wanted her daughter to learn. I told her I can only teach her daughter beginner level.
Fast forward to today, it's been 6 months since I've been teaching her. What started with one student snowballed to 6 students! I never that I would enjoy teaching guitar through zoom. I recently started taking lessons to continue my growth and I'm saving up to take some berklee classes online to become a certified music teacher to get paid more!
Never give up on guitar!!!! It's very rewarding and you're never to young or old to start!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸
I shattered my spine and playing is my way of fighting the pain put my focus on music and out of darkness thanks for the videos
Sadly my girlfriend quit playing guitar after being bullied by her brother into stop playing as he wanted to play it as well. But she’s happier playing bass now as there’s no longer that competitive chemistry between them now which is good.
What a douchebag brother
Hit him over the head with the bass and get back to the guitar!
Nahhh i wish my brother would compete with me on it cues every time we compete an anything we get really highly skilled at it just so we can beat eachother and say were better
Lol i honestly just want a family member who gives a fuck about music

i was screaming "DONT DO IT TYLER" at my tv for that whole segment lmao.
The solo from Santeria by Sublime. Years ago, I didn't even consider trying to learn it. It just seemed too far away from my skill level. Last year I took the time to learn it and it elevated my confidence and skill a bit. Now I'm determined to come up with my own solos that surpass it. A tall order, I know, but if I can't impress myself, I can't expect to please others. Great topic, man. Thanks for the inspiration.
For some reason "What I Got" by Sublime became my target as I started learning guitar. I've been practicing various parts of it including the solo and fully expect someday to put all down as one song. I'm 4 months into beginning the guitar and I'm not close to learning the song, but I'm way better than when I started. I can feel the progress and even thought I'm a slow guitar learner I know I'm going to play this for my family some day.
This video has helped me I keep coming back to your channel for motivation, because no matter what happens in life I'll always hve music atmy fingertips and that's comforting, as a girl who's been playing guitar for about 3 years it's definitely hard to stay motivated sometimes. Never give up! ❤
Yesterday I was practicing a song, and then I began to immerse myself into playing something I felt like it could be the next song on the radio someday, and I told a friend about it and he's like "nobody's stopping you", and that's where everything clicked and felt more exciting than previous times, because now I actually feel that I can make something out of it, so thank you Tyler for this reminder that we should never put down the guitar and just keep at it. Keep shredding, everyone 🤙
I have been struggling with burnout from guitar and the breaking point for me this week was when I was soldering up my new Les Paul and I got no sound and lots of fret buzz and no relief to fix it... I have been playing for 12 years and this was so discouraging to just fail for the 10,000th time...but this video is helping me realize I need to get up the 10,001th time!!! Keep on playing music everyone! This video was God sent for me!
Tyler, I recently picked up the guitar again after deployment, after debating whether it was worth it. Your videos, and those from Ola Englund really motivated me to pick it back up and practice consistently again. To answer your question, the song that got me motivated - the rhythm riffs in Warbringer's "Remain Violent".
Just tonight, my daughter came in while I was practicing Seek and Destroy - one of my favorite songs full of fun riffs. She listened an watched for a bit, and told me she wants to play guitar too. Just wanted to say thank you - your passion and content really does make an impact.
After decades of regret, I got serious about loving myself enough to fulfill my dream of learning electric guitar. I’m 45 and after 6 months of dedication to practicing, learning, and listening, it feels amazing to be able to play some of what I always fantasized about playing when I was a teenager.
I served in the US Air Force (Intelligence Linguist/Analyst) after 9/11. I became a family man as a father and husband. I spent 8 years recovering from 6 major surgeries, including carpal tunnel (twice on my left hand), bilateral ulnar nerve transposition, and a two-level cervical artificial disk replacement. I’ve spent many years struggling with severe PTSD too. I’ve been a mess.
I am so grateful to be able to have access to so many great you-tubers (like you) and just play guitar after so much hard work.
I am so excited to finally be doing what I’ve wanted to do for so long! 🤘❤️🤘🎸🤘
Riff I needed to learn immediately on hearing: intro to "Trumpets of Jericho" by Bruce Dickinson, which was my first foray into the world of Drop D tuning.
Literally this morning I almost felt like quitting. I was trying to record an improv solo for my RUclips channel and for some reason I couldn't do it. There's something psychologically inside that makes me tense up and not play as good in front of the camera, and I keep making errors. I've been playing for 6 years now, sometimes I think I should be better, others I think how good should I be at this stage. In the end I took a break and managed to film a good one 👍
Someday I can hope to be the best I can be and be able to play confidently without massive mistakes, one day....
Yeah it's rough
@@beefnacos6258 Just gotta keep going at it 🤘
My recommendation is turn on the camera and pretend it doesn't exist and record for an hour and let yourself have fun! If you find yourself making riffs off camera, just gotta rest into that relaxing phase
@@AarPlays thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it out and see how I get on
It does get easier Josh. We all dread that moment when you realize you are 30 sec from the end of a 'perfect' take .. and then.. 'Sh*t'
In the case of bass it's actually hard to keep playing without thinking about quitting, but when you start grooving with your drummer, locked on, everybody boping, there isn't a better feeling (in my opinion), that's why i keep playing bass, it's just the perfect way for me to express myself. (Also greetings from Brazil)
I get it. There was one drummer I "clicked" with. We both played wrong exactly the same, so I think we were right. Now I play guitar instead because it's too hard to find reliable people to jam with. I can play guitar by myself. Still love the bass, but just have to be practical in my old age.
I want to say Thank you! I ended my band which I started 3 years ago. That time I really want to quit playing guitar. I was alone and found I didn't play guitar well and know just little phrases. But I lighted upon your channel, and it was very motivated. though my guitar playing is not good, I still practice, and it is very fun to me. you always give good motivation. thank you Tyler! Music is Win!
I've been playing guitar for 40 years, on and off. I still have way too much fun playing power chords and pentatonic. Play every day, with a metronome or drum track!
the best riff- The silver Thinkers- The 17 Million. it's Epic !!
That's my identical story, I started at 15 and 55 now and played off and on and now I learned the scales recently and finally learned the fretboard and I sit around on my upgraded squier tele and play to drum tracks on yt and phone apps on my mustang amp, mostly power chords and pentatonic.
@@donrockerjohnson9100 Almost totally identical, I have an '86 Japanese Squire Strat I bought new. I have a Spark amp which is a blast with the drum/bass generator that makes up a backing track to what you play on guitar.
@@rkoz55 I didn't mean gear. We both played off and on and we play to drum tracks and power chords and pentatonic. nobody has identical gear. I have a Squier tele with Seymour Duncan pickups and a mustang amp hooked up to my pc to record on a daw.
The solo from Kenny Loggins “Danger Zone” is what made me want to play guitar.
Forever kenny loggins
OverLord Opps Thanks for..?
The title cut from Lita Ford's Dancing On The Edge album is what made me want to pick up the guitar
OverLord Opps Ah. Yes. The good ol days. The days that paved the way for the music we have today. The good music, that is.
Ok Boomer.😏
Typical story here: grew up with music in my life-was blessed with some “natural” talent and played drums from about 4th grade and decided after high school to go to school to be a music teacher and a rock star...so I did the only reasonable thing and joined the military instead.... got away from it for a long time. Played with a house band off and on over the years-I’m almost 52 and recently retired now...just started playing the guitar. I am just so fortunate to have rediscovered my love for music and for the first time in a very long time I am excited about it. I try to live by a mantra of always being a student of something-anything-and once again I am a student of music and finding joy and freedom of mind. A bonus is that my wife is also a musician and has renewed her love for it and brought us closer with that in common..and that can never be a bad thing. I guess i share this to highlight and support all the positive comments and content in the video and to say that it is ok to “quit” as long as you start again the next day and don’t let yourself get stressed out about it all. Enjoy it because you deserve it.

sorry m8, I really dont wanna die from alcohol poisoning
I have been playing 30 years chronologically, but about 2, maybe 3 year all together. I always seemed to get to a point and then get bored and stop. After many many years fully intending to get back into it, I finally did in January 2021. This time I went into it with the mindset of not expecting to be able to play something (anything) without putting in the time and effort to learn and practice.
I always wanted to play the intro to Nothing Else Matters, but never learnt it properly, instead settling for the easy option every time because that did not require much effort, commitment or focus. I have been practicing the heck out of it, concentrating on dialling in each phase and then putting it together. It's not perfect, but it sounds about right and I am so pleased with the result, especially as continue to practice and improve.
All this was possible due to a shift in mindset, which is away from a sense of entitlement (I should be able to play absolutely anything perfectly on the first try) and disappointment when I obviously could not, to the attitude that I can play anything if I am willing to invest the time and effort. Another thing I did was embrace being rubbish in the beginning, in the knowledge that I knew I would get better. I have and will continue to improve as long as I keep my focus, practice and avoid getting into a rut of only playing things I am comfortable with. It's OK not to be able to play something straight off and I have realised that's it's really fun to learn and a massive personally achievement when I nail something, no matter how small.
There is also one piece of equipment that has helped me massively. A stand, as Tyler mentioned, removing the barriers for me was key. I always have my guitar next to me and have got into the habit of picking it up whenever I can and just playing something. It works for me and I will keep doing it and continue to improve. I can and will do this.
I quit as a kid and came back to guitar as an adult. So many people around me are willing to help teach me things. Go someplace were other guitarists are and be a part of it. It's awesome to be a part of music of any kind.
Righteous Tyler! Great one to learn about all that's inside ready to keep on. Righteous brother!
The only reason you should quit guitar, "Playing guitar brings me no joy"
I can agree on this
There are other solutions. Perhaps you're burned out or you play things that you don't enjoy... In any case, rather that quitting, a break should be a better solution...
When I first started I had to learn Kickstart My Heart from Motley Crue. Glad to say I can play it very well now and I always go back to it when I just want to play a fun riff.
:) I had already been a performing acoustic singer-songwriter, but the first 'rock' solo I heard that made me learn a full-on guitar solo was the one in Free's Fire and Water. It was 1970, and I had JUST gotten home from Korea after being drafted. Got inspired playing lead guitar and it changed my musical career and style. Still maintained a singer-songwriter presence, but became a 'hired gun' acoustic lead and blues guitar player -- and got exposed to a lot of great musicians I would never have met otherwise. Thanks for the trip down memory lane Tyler!!
This video is why I love your channel so much... Thanks for this... After Glenn's video I was truly sad. But now I feel so much better!!...
Sleepwalk by Santo and Johnny, is my current obsession.
Classic
Beautiful

I have a shirt that explains me perfectly:
I play the guitar because I like it, not because I'm good at it 😁🎸
True
Ok i need one
Yes me too
Most people quit playing the guitar because they aren't patient or hate playing or they aren't good and trying.
How many years have you been playing the guitar?
Awesome vid man I bought my first electric in December I have really enjoyed the year with it but definitely need to pick it up more and you just made me so thank you 👍
ive been playing for almost 8 years on my own just reading tabs and stuff on youtube. But this week i subscribed your guitar system and im learning more in 1 week than in the last 5 years or so. thank u man
Yes Master Tyler, tell me why I’m horrible even though I haven’t played for a year Edit: a way if your a straight male, it’s a relatively easy way to get chicks
How's Jimmy Page doing
The review guy he keeps begging me to play with him
This works even better if you’re a lesbian trying to get chicks
@@moptop5253 Sure does sound like him, and if you say yes please include John Paul Jones cause if you don't he'll get upset.
yes, but no. ironically, gals like guys that have profile pics with a cheap acoustic but dont know how to play, than guys that actually spend time and money to learn and play guitar well.
Quitting has never crossed my mind to be honest. Maybe take a break for a week, but I can't be in the same room as a guitar and not play it Lol.
Hide your guitars when I visit, or don't talk to me while I am playing.
Tyler, you're one of the main inspirations I had to start my youtube channel (and although is not going very well at the moment, I'm having more fun and fulfillment than ever). Thanks man.
I remember hearing Local-H “Bound for the Floor”...and I could not wait to get home and figure that riff out...still fun to play after all these years!!!!

to be exactly honest, things that keep me playing guitar are all of youtuber guitarist like you, y'all just entertaining as hell guys, and i got different mood for different youtuber lol, not only entertaining but you guys also teach me a lot of new stuff! how to play this, how to get the best tone, how to record something, and many other! i just wanted to say thank you for everything you've done in this platform.
I needed this today
Love your channel man
Thanks for posting videos like these Tyler I've been sick for a few weeks and got so unmotivated playing my guitar but Videos like this keep me up
Back in Black was the riff for me that I just HAD to learn
the best riff- The silver Thinkers- The 17 Million. it's Epic !!
For me it was Sweet Child o Mine. I still have dreams about playing that song love sometimes!
The A minor riff in Fade To Black was that for me.
If you truly love playing the guitar and have the passion, even when at times you say, "I'm done, I quit", at the end you always come back to playing the guitar again no matter what.. Passion counts
actually was thinking about quitting last week, then i saw one of your video's and helped me get trough it thanks alot mate keep the vids comming
It’s always been having that one song you’ve always liked and wanted to learn and finally being able to play along to it. Whether it be a simple song or a bit harder. It’s always the satisfaction of being able to play along to a song that’s always spoke to you
I was thinking about that.....
Can't forget that time when I was trying to learn master of puppets, tried for 2 weeks but then gave up (was able to do it only in 75% speed) just to try to play after a month and wtf I played it at 100% speed
I figured out the notes after like three days. But to play it at full speed yeah I wasn't even close.
Playing my guitar exercises as I’m watching this. I needed this today. Thank you!
Very good video, man! Thank you 😊
Over The Hills and far away by Led Zeppelin, it’s so fu**** good. I just had to Laden it
"That's the beauty of music. They can't get that from you...haven't you ever felt that way about music? ...There are places in this world that aren't made out of stone. That there's something inside...that they can't get to, that they can't touch. That's yours."
Thanks for this video. I recently started writing my own songs and sometimes i'm uninspired and not motivated, but then I think of all the things you said in this video.
Great video! I can’t wait to get home and play! I wish I could play while commuting to work. I’d be so happy and much better.
As a teenager, I was close to giving up playing the guitar. At that time I had a used Strat. It played almost by itself, but the quality of the built-in parts was very poor. I couldn't find a good luthier and I played in a totally boring band. Out of sheer frustration, I decided to behead my Strat and throw it in the dumpster. I have to say that I had been playing for ten years at the time. Something completely unexpected happened, when I broke the neck of
the guitar with my foot, I just started crying. That's when I really understood how important playing the guitar is for me. After that, I only played my acoustic guitars again for over a year and during that time I saved my money to buy a better electric guitar, which I still play today. Every time I play my guitar, a wonderful journey of discovery begins for me. It's so exciting when you don't know exactly what to expect, I love surprises.
Guy's stay tuned, you will not be disappointed
Rock on
🐈
Why did you break your Stratocaster guitar? What was happening then?
If you hated this teenage band why did you play with it?
@@marialenaho5249 I worked in a factory for a year and with the money i bought my first Les Paul 😂🤸🏾♂️🥳🥳🥳👏👏👏🤸🏾♂️🤸🏾♂️🤸🏾♂️
🐈
@@marialenaho5249 The music was lame but the guys in the band were kind of cool and it was totally funny. Above all, however, the audience liked it and they were regularly completely out of control 😂👏👏👏👏🤷♂️
Rock on

Welp, prematurely took the advice to heart and smashed my guitar :(
Awe dude...you always have to watch to the end...well at least now you can do some guitar shopping!!!!!
Oops
thanks for uploading this video! i appreciate your words, greetings from Mexicali!
Dude!,I loved this vid!! I started playing when this whole pandemic thing started, and must admit that sometimes I feel like throwing it outta the window. Guess I'm not alone! Thanks for this!
Why quit? It took me 34 years to learn the 3 chords....I'm improving screw quitting !
“are you questioning your musical life”
Sounds like the beginning of an informercial lol
Great video, I think there are quite a few of us out there that needed this!
Man, you are the fucking best. Thanks so much for the words.
I started playing the guitar when i was 13 and was like magic. Later, in my early 20, i droped the guitar to keep up with life.
In 2020, i returned to practice six months ago and got back the guitar and music in my life. It's a hard time indeed and getting back to play was basically what helped me to be in a mental state in order to had to do and just keep up. I just get it now that keeping up with my life, is also keeping up the guitar and music alive, day by day. I mean, quiting is not an option anymore.
“I call shotgun”
-Kurt Cobain
I keep coming back here when I feel like quitting, and every time, I always feel better. Thanks for making this video.
I just bought a guitar close to a month ago and I already never want to stop playing, it's so fun and satisfying
I've always had a love anger passion for music and being able to make it is so frickin awesome
Needed that so much!!! 👍💯
I started to learned how to play the guitar because I feel like Im not good at anything in life...ever since then I have fell in love with it and hoping to keep progressing 🙏🏽 thanks for your content definitely motivating
You seem like a very positive guide. watching your videos has made me want/ inspired me to learn to play guitar.
Great video, man! Love the positivity you put out there!
I've quit a few instruments before, including the guitar, but not for any dramatic reasons. This spring, I realised that I really love the sound of bass, and I started researching it and saving up some money. A few months ago, I got a beautiful bass guitar and started taking lessons. It sits right next to my desk, so it's always in the corner of my eyes, ready to be played as soon as I get the urge to practice. In a much shorter time than I spent trying to learn those other instruments, I feel like I've gotten so much farther, because I'm doing it for the right reasons. And I really like the theory part as well, because I spent a lot of time listening to people discussing music without understanding it, and I realised that I wanted to understand. So far, every part of learning to play this instrument is something that I enjoy and that I'll gladly do, because I know that it'll make my life richer. Maybe it's just the honeymoon phase, and it'll get rougher, but right now I'm having a blast. :D
Honestly bro, I've been playing more than 20 years and you've been quite inspiring. Helped me a lot as well, thank you! Rock on, brother🤘
I really love your motivate video!!
Keep shredding!!!
And please do a harly benton review.
The scond part of the "Fade To Black" intro...loved it so much
there were three/four riffs i want to learn since i heared them while i was start learning guitar...
First one from my favorite german punkrock band "die ärzte", the song "Schrei Nach Liebe" (trans: Cry out for Love).
Second one from my favorite non german punk band "Sum41", the Song "The Hell Song"... that starting riff is absolutly awesome.
Third and fourth (learned at the same time) one were my first metal riffs, 3rd from BFMV, song "Tears Don't Fall"
and 4th from Breakdown of Sanity, song "The Writer", it's intro will stuck for ever in my head and always gives me goosebumps listening to it or simply while playing it by myself.
Thanks for the video, you're motivating me day for day to keep practicing my guitar skills. Thanks for being there Tyler!
Great stuff! Wish I had stuff like this when I was starting out! Just a lot of alone time with a tape player, or lp, thanks
Watching your videos gives me motivation to continue to keep learning!
Most epic intro to date! I have a regular job. I teach music, but I want to teach guitar all day...you inspired me to actually start my channel...geared for the beginner!
I have seen the amp head that’s to the left of him in some videos, and I am wondering what it’s is?
When I was in second grade, I listened to the guitar solo from Queens' We Will Rock You on my Play-It-Now (yes, that mp3 egg from the early 2000s) over and over again and I think thats what sparked my guitar journey. Now Im 24 at Musicians Institute. Never Quit!
I played and have heard of Orange amps are they any good price or quality in the long run?
Something that keeps me motivated is listening to tornado of souls. Been learning the whole song for a while now and i'm okay at it but the solo for me is so extremely epic that I just never get bored of learning it :)
Dude I am 64 years old and you are probably the best motivation I've ever come across for not quitting. Cheers man.
Your channel has inspired me to jump back in it! Thankyou!!!!!!
