There's a book called Guitar Codebreaker Unlocked, and it teaches everything about playing guitar, from essential skills to advanced techniques. It’s perfect for all levels
Hi Marty as an 80 year old was very impressed with your video. Will borrow my granddaughter's guitar and will do what I have always wanted to do, that is to play a musical instrument. Wish me luck!!
Maaaan listen. I start learning the guitar back in 2014, and Marty helped me a lot, i mean i was literally only watching his videos, because of you Marty now i have full time job as a guitarist and i loveeeeee it. Just wanted to come back and say thank you, you changed my life :)
I just got a guitar and it’s inspiring to know that there was someone in my same position, I just started working on barre chords, (hopefully my fingers grow a bit) and as hard as it may be, there’s nothing I could do other than get better!
@@JScott-md6dv Nice I'm happy for you. Maybe try getting a guitar with tiny neck. ^^I wish you a lot of patience, you gonna need it but its worth it trust me !! :) :) :)
Okay so after many years of watching tutorials and getting fed up. I am going to keep focused and practicing as this is something I’ve always wanted to do. I will edit this if I’ve made any progress. Please like to remind me 😂
For so many years I owned a guitar that only gathered dust, found your video and miracle, 20 mins later I now know 3 chords and can move between them, wow, I always thought this was impossible for me to do, but it isn't, thank you
Nidge OSullivan heyy can i ask what is the name of the third chord he did, the one where he removed his middle finger from the E minor chord and placed it on the third fret?? if you know the name can u please tell me?
Thank you, my first guitar was bought by my dad and I'm really thankful to him. I'm 13 and don't know anything about guitars and how to play it. Thank you, nice guy! :)
ReGamer Im 15. Was starting to learn when I was your age but got discouraged and left. Now I have renewed encouragement and have started learning again
After watching this lesson, it was the first time that a gutair in my hands made anything that sounded musical, it was so inspiring and morale building that it makes the gutair hard to put down. Thank you Marty, your a super cool dude!
The only other time I made something musical was when I learned how to play hot cross buns on my recorder and beginning band when I played trombone and all the hybrid instruments.
I've been playing for nearly 9 years now, and coming back to these really makes me appreciate how efficient Marty's teaching is, and how it gave me the gift of one of the most enriching parts of my life. Thanks Marty.
This is great. I'm seventy and have never played guitar. On impulse I bought one, then came to RUclips to learn how to play it. I found you - and I'm glad :D
I'm 58 and began learning the ukulele a few years ago. Now that I've got more comfortable with twisting my wrist around, I'm getting the guitars back out. I'm hopeful.

I just bought a guitar yesterday with a 50 year old seasoned guitar player. I am dying to get a jump start and just came across this video at first search. This man is a born teacher/leader. Thank you for sharing yourself and knowledge. So wonderful to come across another person who truly cares. I have just lost two friends to suicide and personally am suffering from 4 real estate deals that went south, which is my livelihood. I was not in a position to purchase a guitar at this stage in my life, but I did. Lessons may not be within reach for ???; this video has taken me to the next level to overcome my true feelings at the moment as a human being. I look forward to redirect any negativeness about life into the life of beautiful music. I'm sure this will help me refocus my focus.
Hey! That's really courageous of you, and yes, you're right. Playing music does help in that. In fact, any kind of Art helps you cope up with life's difficulties, everyone has their own choices. For me it's writing, and now I'm trying out music too! Take care and hope you have a great life ahead!
Good luck man. But dont look for a quick fix. It takes time. And as a wise man once said; "Life doesnt get easier, our skin just gets tougher/thicker". All the best man, and if you get inspiration try writing some songs as well, that helps me a bunch. They dont need to be good, mine are really bad :D, but the point is just to express yourself. Have fun with it :).
i really hope you get things back in order and i am sorry for your losses. be strong stay strong keep positive i hope god bless you with many blessings and easiness in life further. my best wishes to you !!!
Hey me too, but is so freaking scary/hard when ya 58 & av no idea about music whatsoever! Where do you find USEFUL/HELPFUL info without all the bs claiming to teach absolute beginners that is actually still way too advanced for a dummy like me??. Help anyone?
This is so nice ..as someone who has NEVER even touched a guitar I find this extremely helpful - Thx for going slow and making it easy to understand The #1 reason why I give up everytime was cus I felt overwhelmed - you did a great job of explaining super clearly
This was a fantastic lesson for beginners. As someone who has zero experience outside of randomly strumming on my dad's old guitar, I really learned a lot here.
My husband bought me a guitar because I wantted to learn how to play. It just seemed very hard to me so I still had it in the box for 8 mnths now! I saw your video & I'm so excitted I ACTUALLY LEARNED SOMETHING!! THANK YOU SO MUCH .... GOD BLESS YOU :)
Mr. Gold it is possible that your teacher is trying to lay down the foundations for improvisation and general knowledge of guitar. Even though the chords you have just been taught may sound very satisfying to play, eventually you will get stuck
Wow Marty this video is fab! I just learnt it, my little brother heard me playing it and came running into my room and begged me to teach him, SO I DID! finally found some motivation to lean guitar properly, I've been trying for ages. thankyou so much!
Got my first guitar for xmas and have been messing with it and watching videos. This is the first one that has made sense and was fun. Thanks for the first lesson, you made that easy and now I can actually play something.....lol

I know your pain i started playing yesterday and i have really soft fingers but if you play for a while every day your fingers get used to it mine are geting used to it very fast :D
Dude you're a genius. I appreciate that you make it easy for people to understand what frets are and how to hold a pick because most people do not understand that people who watch these videos have NO idea how this works. I'm rather new to guitar and appreciate your overall introduction to how it works. Thanks to you, I'm going to keep learning because I know the very basics. I'll reccomend this video to anyone interested in learning. Cheers Martyz
I agree when i watch other people videos my mind went blank and i didn't understand what i was doing but when i watch this im getting better and better very time i try his lesson. I highly recomend Martyz ^.^ thank you Martyz
Very helpful! Picked up my guitar for the first time today and I did this for 1,5-2 hours. I can't move my wrist anymore but this was an easy first step that boosted my confidence at least 100x. Thank you!
Man, I watched this when I was like 18years old and gave up after 5 mins. Fast forward 5 years and I watch this video again with a completely different mindset. #iwannareallylearnthistime
I just bought a guitar today, November 14th, 2020. It's actually a kit that says guitar for dummies. I've always wanted to learn to play, I've always been to busy to learn. Now I'm taking advantage of being layed off during COVID. You're not going to believe what my name is. My name is Jimmy Hendricks. Yes, he's my favorite guitarist of all time. Love your video.
You're a great teacher. I've had a guitar for years, but have never learned to play it. You have taught me more in this lesson, than I've learned with a private instructor.
I watched this last year and now I'm playing my first gig I owe it all to you thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have made my dream come true and I could never thank you enough❤️
lol agreed, everyone is saying there own thing so i guess everyone learns different but this guy did it for me, i had tried a few different tutorials before i left for summer vacation but coming back and watching this i must say it was the easiest and best beginner lesson i have found.
for the people that got their picks in their guitar hole, dont put your hand in that hole. it will most likely break the strings and you will have to get the strings replaced. just turn it upside down gently and shake it until it comes out !!
Mandy Rice Same! My dad plays guitar and I'm trying to learn how to play so I can surprise him. Plus I have some good friends at school who are musically talented. 😀👍
Go get a cheapy from a pawn shop for 40.00..make sure neck isn't warped, (look from bottom of neck to top and see if it looks to be straight and not bowed in the middle). You can also at the ending of a school year get guitars anywhere they sell lessons for cheap...they are lesson guitars, previously owned and used..but well worth 40-60.00
How do you get the feel of embarrassment away while learning. I always feel embarrassed for some reason while trying to play and learn and my brain goes into full idiot mode while trying to learn.
You're alone man, do you feel embarassed taking a shit or fondling your junk? Whatever you do alone is your business. Everyone who played the guitar started somewhere. You don't have to play before you've had time to practice and develop skill.
Practice being kind to yourself- you’re learning a new skill! So many people don’t even bother to try. I try to tell myself how exciting it is to learn something new rather than focus on all the things I don’t know yet. TLDR: Celebrate your successes not your perceived failures.
Jeremy Parr I just brought acoustic guitar I and like to learn it thank you for show how to strum the two cords I try it but not good at it but like to thank you for showing your demo yours truly Jeremy
I don't even have a guitar yet, but I'm getting there. I really wanna play an instrument. I'm at the point where a dream gets created in your head. I was gonna learn violin, but then my family didn't really believe in me, so Imma go with this for starters. I mean I love guitar too. But they say it's easier than violin. Idk, maybe it is... At least they support me at that point. I don't even have a guitar yet...
It doesn't matter if your family believes in you- If YOU believe in yourself, do it! I used to play violin, but quit, now I may learn guitar. Just see what you like.
I used to play violin and am learning guitar now. So far the violin is MUCH more technical, difficult and more expensive to learn and play. Learning guitar gives good musical education too, so if you want to pick up the violin you'll already have some basic knowledge.
you need to be self motivating Don't rely on others support. Support your self. Do what you want. If some one tells me something is hard or I can't do it, makes me want to do it more and show them there wrong. (That can have negative effects in life too lol) But when learning an instrument, it's pretty necessary. You need some of that rebel spirit. They support you now. Wait till you keep strumming the same cord over and over and over and over......... Be prepared for the hate. But then one day you'll be sitting at a family gathering, pick up that guitar and play a song every one knows and you see them jamming to your playing.... It will be worth it.
My wife left and took our son while I was at work last February and I’ve had my guitar and not played in year 10+ but picking it back up tonight all the pain left all the hurt thank you
Thanks so much for this! As you said in the beginning, I'd just tried half a dozen beginner tutorials and failed them all miserably, but then I saw this one and it's exactly what I needed! Thanks for explaining everything so clearly and inspiring me to keep trying :)
Thank you Marty!!!! I'm a 45 old guy with no music experience (except a failed year trying to blow on a trumpet in 7th grade). I always wanted to learn guitar but was completely overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. I was too embarrassed to even walk into a guitar store because I was clueless. I found your RUclips videos and decided to buy my first guitar (Yamaha FG730). A week later, I ordered your 12 DVD beginner pack and am SO happy I did. You have a great teaching style, and the DVDs are really helping a lot. I'm on my way!
JCP1720vids hey thank you so very much for taking the extra step and purchasing a dvd set!! That is such a wonderful thing to hear from you! thank you so very much!
Marty I forget to mention has since sadly passed on , so learning all over to play the guitar again is making me feel so close to him and bringing back so many cherished memory of my beloved Grandad . Thanks so much.
Just do it make your dreams come true yesterday you say today today you say tommorow so y won't you do it just....... awwwwwwww..........awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
This was actually really helpful! I just got my hands on a guitar yesterday and I feel like I can improve fast when I learn how to play as smoothly as you do. Thank you!
Who else woke up at 4 am and decided it was time to learn how to play the unused electric guitar that’s been sitting in your closet for years? Just me? Ok.
Thank you so much for the videos Marty I'm 20 my dad has been playing his whole life and now I wanna learn. Your videos are helping me slowly make my dream come true. Again thank you so much.
A little over 50 years ago I picked up my first guitar. Self taught and picking up tips from people who could actually make musical sounds from their guitars. Went on to become what I would describe as an intermediate player at best. That brings us to now. Sitting in my music room largely untouched except to polish or freshen strings that are never played are my favorite Martin and my Stratocaster. They are just frozen in time waiting to be played. My hands are no longer strong, my fingers bent at odd ways from arthritis, but suddenly I came across this video and by patiently pausing and following your instructions, the magic of melodic sounds began coming out of that old Martin. I just wanted to thank you Marty and to say that I have signed up for your Guitar Jamz lessons. Feel free to give a shout out of encouragement to an old hippie.
So the first thing you need to know about a guitar is that its mostly made outta wood And then contrary to popular belief you need arms with a few fingers on em, 5 fingers on each hand should do fine.
im nearly 50 years old. tyvm 4 great vid, i was a bass player makin $ 500 a gig in 1986 a gettin free beer at 16 years old wish i had utube lol peeps love my playing but i knew chit arr ... wish i had balls not to stop playing arr
Hi just bought my first guitar never played one before had a few lessons in school when I was about 12 and now being 48 I have forgotten but would love to learn how to play properly
You're an amazing teacher and you have a great personality which makes it easier for me to watch. I am entertained while learning. Thank you for being you and for sharing your gift with the world
I sing & play piano but have always wished I could play guitar like my brother. I broke my left wrist as a kid so always found it difficult to roll my hand over to reach the strings in the right manner. Any time i tried to have a go at learning something I ended up putting it in the 'to hard' basket. Then I watched your video...I found that while my nails were too long, I could manage to do what you showed us and enjoyed it. Thankyou for being so totally 'beginner' for us. I'm going to file down my acrylic nails now...
Just got my guitar today and your teaching is really good. I don't feel dumb about guitars anymore (even though they're just 3 chords). Well, this is just the beginning. :)

I'm rather new to guitar and appreciate your overall introduction to how it works. Thanks to you, I'm going to keep learning because I know the very basics. I'll reccomend this video to anyone interested in learning.
Cheers Martyz
I agree when i watch other people videos my mind went blank and i didn't understand what i was doing but when i watch this im getting better and better very time i try his lesson. I highly recomend Martyz ^.^ thank you Martyz
I'm buying my 14yrs old daughter an acoustic guitar for Xmas. Man ur her new teacher .You made it seem so simple. Keep up the good work bro!
Test Test so glad to hear that!!! thanks so much for supporting!

i’m literally starting today haha
i watched for 2 mins and i already think this dudes cool asf
My fingers now have a heart beat
hahaha
God bless you man, I appreciate your encouragement. When I go pro, you name will be incorporated in my stage name.
Very helpful! Picked up my guitar for the first time today and I did this for 1,5-2 hours. I can't move my wrist anymore but this was an easy first step that boosted my confidence at least 100x. Thank you!
Man, I watched this when I was like 18years old and gave up after 5 mins. Fast forward 5 years and I watch this video again with a completely different mindset. #iwannareallylearnthistime
did you do it?
Been a year, how's the progress
How do I stop my fat fingers from hitting the string below?
Practicing* ;-)

ive just got my first guitar and it is so gun
+Maisie Lyden so gun I agree
MAISIE IS CRAZY So gun.
Yes I shoot
I just bought a guitar today, November 14th, 2020. It's actually a kit that says guitar for dummies. I've always wanted to learn to play, I've always been to busy to learn. Now I'm taking advantage of being layed off during COVID. You're not going to believe what my name is. My name is Jimmy Hendricks. Yes, he's my favorite guitarist of all time. Love your video.
You're a great teacher. I've had a guitar for years, but have never learned to play it. You have taught me more in this lesson, than I've learned with a private instructor.
I watched this last year and now I'm playing my first gig I owe it all to you thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have made my dream come true and I could never thank you enough❤️
Prime_Touch Well thanks for letting me know! I appreciate hearing that! Thank you !
Wow thanks dude. I learned more in the last 16 minutes than I learned in 2 hours at my local guitar shop.
Check out this video to learn how to play the guitar like a pro:
*GuitarMastery . info*
I’m 40 years old just started to learn how to play guitar, let me just say ur a great teacher very clear. Greatful I found you
I am 55 and just had my first guitar lesson here we go, keep em coming thank you for the video
I FINALLY LEARNED SOMETHING!!! MARTY YOU ARE THE MAN!!! Keep making these vids because u r a good teacher
lol agreed, everyone is saying there own thing so i guess everyone learns different but this guy did it for me, i had tried a few different tutorials before i left for summer vacation but coming back and watching this i must say it was the easiest and best beginner lesson i have found.

David Willison I
for the people that got their picks in their guitar hole, dont put your hand in that hole. it will most likely break the strings and you will have to get the strings replaced. just turn it upside down gently and shake it until it comes out !!
My pick fall in blackhole...
I have black guitar :D
Guitar hole sounds sexy.
@@jessiejupiter1003 same 💀
Literally bought my first guitar today and this is my very first lesson. Nailed it. You are awesome!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ *rocks out to Nirvana* lol
Mandy Rice Same! My dad plays guitar and I'm trying to learn how to play so I can surprise him. Plus I have some good friends at school who are musically talented. 😀👍
I hope it goes well!
Which nirvana song is it?):
No sane person rocks out to Nirvana

You have no idea how much I want a guitar.
Realmodesty go to a pawn shop by a decent one for 20-40 bucks
Buy
Go get a cheapy from a pawn shop for 40.00..make sure neck isn't warped, (look from bottom of neck to top and see if it looks to be straight and not bowed in the middle). You can also at the ending of a school year get guitars anywhere they sell lessons for cheap...they are lesson guitars, previously owned and used..but well worth 40-60.00
Realmodesty Go for it 🤣
this one is only 60 amzn.to/2ngnqTQ
How do you get the feel of embarrassment away while learning. I always feel embarrassed for some reason while trying to play and learn and my brain goes into full idiot mode while trying to learn.
You're alone man, do you feel embarassed taking a shit or fondling your junk? Whatever you do alone is your business. Everyone who played the guitar started somewhere. You don't have to play before you've had time to practice and develop skill.
@@TheMcBeefy 😂😂😂
Practice being kind to yourself- you’re learning a new skill! So many people don’t even bother to try. I try to tell myself how exciting it is to learn something new rather than focus on all the things I don’t know yet.
TLDR: Celebrate your successes not your perceived failures.
Stop expecting perfection :) Discard any expectations that you got from society around you
Everybody learns differently and at their own pace!
Jeremy Parr I just brought acoustic guitar I and like to learn it thank you for show how to strum the two cords I try it but not good at it but like to thank you for showing your demo yours truly Jeremy
Your method of teaching is very simple and easy... Thank you
😊😊
Sapna Negi rawat yes you are right
Sapna Negi rawat it’s literally for 3 year olds or people who don’t speak English.
It’s super slow
BoostedLeague can you uhh. Not?
I don't even have a guitar yet, but I'm getting there. I really wanna play an instrument. I'm at the point where a dream gets created in your head. I was gonna learn violin, but then my family didn't really believe in me, so Imma go with this for starters. I mean I love guitar too. But they say it's easier than violin. Idk, maybe it is... At least they support me at that point. I don't even have a guitar yet...
*yet*
It doesn't matter if your family believes in you- If YOU believe in yourself, do it! I used to play violin, but quit, now I may learn guitar. Just see what you like.
I used to play violin and am learning guitar now. So far the violin is MUCH more technical, difficult and more expensive to learn and play. Learning guitar gives good musical education too, so if you want to pick up the violin you'll already have some basic knowledge.
you need to be self motivating Don't rely on others support. Support your self. Do what you want.
If some one tells me something is hard or I can't do it, makes me want to do it more and show them there wrong. (That can have negative effects in life too lol) But when learning an instrument, it's pretty necessary. You need some of that rebel spirit.
They support you now. Wait till you keep strumming the same cord over and over and over and over......... Be prepared for the hate.
But then one day you'll be sitting at a family gathering, pick up that guitar and play a song every one knows and you see them jamming to your playing.... It will be worth it.
Piano is much easier that guitar and I know that very well, but pianos are very expensive to buy so I would recommend the guitar in my opinion.
I always get distracted by the comments and have to rewind the video
vanessa Grace Yeah, same with me, have to multi task
vanessa Grace not cool~ feel bad you ;-}
vanessa Grace me too
Haha 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😆 me too and I don't even have a guitar yet.
My wife left and took our son while I was at work last February and I’ve had my guitar and not played in year 10+ but picking it back up tonight all the pain left all the hurt thank you
Did you call the police and issue an amber alert? Your son just got kidnapped and you decided to pick up your guitar!?

It's my wrist for me, I had an accident as a child with glass and cut my left wrist quite badly. But I'm getting better still.
@@seanrawlings5261 huh? 😀
Thanks so much for this! As you said in the beginning, I'd just tried half a dozen beginner tutorials and failed them all miserably, but then I saw this one and it's exactly what I needed! Thanks for explaining everything so clearly and inspiring me to keep trying :)

Thank you Marty!!!! I'm a 45 old guy with no music experience (except a failed year trying to blow on a trumpet in 7th grade). I always wanted to learn guitar but was completely overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. I was too embarrassed to even walk into a guitar store because I was clueless. I found your RUclips videos and decided to buy my first guitar (Yamaha FG730). A week later, I ordered your 12 DVD beginner pack and am SO happy I did. You have a great teaching style, and the DVDs are really helping a lot. I'm on my way!
JCP1720vids hey thank you so very much for taking the extra step and purchasing a dvd set!! That is such a wonderful thing to hear from you! thank you so very much!
I don't even have a guitar yet, but I'm happy to say that I'm definitely learning. Thnx, Marty!
Marty I forget to mention has since sadly passed on , so learning all over to play the guitar again is making me feel so close to him and bringing back so many cherished memory of my beloved Grandad . Thanks so much.
My dad bought a bass and a guitar and no one in this house has ever touched them so imma try and learn (edit: I quit after typing this
Just do it make your dreams come true yesterday you say today today you say tommorow so y won't you do it just....... awwwwwwww..........awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Wow you chicken out?
Try Yousician!

Gracie Is Bored Never give up!! :D
This was actually really helpful!
I just got my hands on a guitar yesterday and I feel like I can improve fast when I learn how to play as smoothly as you do.
Thank you!
hell yea, thanks marty, this has been the most helpful ABSOLUTE beginner video I have come across
Zach Matheny ah thanks so much for the support and leaving the nice comment Zach!!!
***** Another from beginner to pro scam?
yes, best beginner video I've seen so far
I recently ordered a guitar and I feel so much better after watching this video about being a beginner! There’s hope!
Why am I watching this when I don't have a guitar...
Ikr
Get one! I've seen used ones for less than $30 that were $100-150 in great shape. Get a new set of strings and start playing!
27Zangle where have u seen these used ones?
@@TheMijoAaron - Craigslist and ads online. Facebook had a few here and there.
I got a great sounding brand new one for $70 from Kmart
Who else woke up at 4 am and decided it was time to learn how to play the unused electric guitar that’s been sitting in your closet for years?
Just me? Ok.
For me it was 2 am
Uhh
Me. Lmao.
For me it was 10pm
I just got min yesterday
Thank you so much for the videos Marty I'm 20 my dad has been playing his whole life and now I wanna learn. Your videos are helping me slowly make my dream come true. Again thank you so much.
Wow you're only starting at 20. I'm starting and I'm 10!
***** im 12 and i just got my new guitar and i am really excited to learn
I like your name,
I'm starting at 16.
Just turned 24 today and I'm just starting also. Got this little tune down pact. I'm ready for more!!! :)
A little over 50 years ago I picked up my first guitar. Self taught and picking up tips from people who could actually make musical sounds from their guitars. Went on to become what I would describe as an intermediate player at best. That brings us to now. Sitting in my music room largely untouched except to polish or freshen strings that are never played are my favorite Martin and my Stratocaster. They are just frozen in time waiting to be played. My hands are no longer strong, my fingers bent at odd ways from arthritis, but suddenly I came across this video and by patiently pausing and following your instructions, the magic of melodic sounds began coming out of that old Martin. I just wanted to thank you Marty and to say that I have signed up for your Guitar Jamz lessons. Feel free to give a shout out of encouragement to an old hippie.
What if you need even more beginner lessons
Then ur so dumb
Fr I can't even do it😂
So the first thing you need to know about a guitar is that its mostly made outta wood
And then contrary to popular belief you need arms with a few fingers on em, 5 fingers on each hand should do fine.

You are just an incredable teacher.
You're an amazing teacher and you have a great personality which makes it easier for me to watch. I am entertained while learning. Thank you for being you and for sharing your gift with the world

Excellent video
Family Freedom watching this video!!❤
2019 and I finally made up my mind to play the guitar. Thanks
I learn something from this video for the first time ❤️💯
I sing & play piano but have always wished I could play guitar like my brother. I broke my left wrist as a kid so always found it difficult to roll my hand over to reach the strings in the right manner. Any time i tried to have a go at learning something I ended up putting it in the 'to hard' basket. Then I watched your video...I found that while my nails were too long, I could manage to do what you showed us and enjoyed it. Thankyou for being so totally 'beginner' for us. I'm going to file down my acrylic nails now...
I wanna buy a guitar then I'll follow all your lessons step by step. THANK U
Anas Baniwais ME TOO :D
