This video could literally be an hour long... I tried to make it as concise and beneficial as possible for the beginner guitarist, but leave a comment if you have any questions and I'll try to respond to as many as I can! 🎸🤘
I'm genuinley sorry this video wasn't an hour long. RUclips would be so much better if material like this was more widespread. Instead of the whole "third finger 7th fret BS"
I have been learning the guitar for a year now and i have notice that I stopped improving as I was lost to what I should practice. Your advice definitely helped revaluate my goals . Great video!
Damn. Been watching guitar videos on RUclips for 15 years and this is probably the best video I’ve watched for how to learn guitar. I’ve been on step 5 for a decade and have been thinking about picking it back up. I just might!
Wow! A gone crazy certified rock star guitar teaching amazing human being bringing fun love light wisdom and knowledge to the world. Love you so much!!! I never knew you could play all of that, and it's fascinating to look back thru your sharing on the video and see how you progressed all on your own. My hero!!
I really don’t know how to thank you, its like u reading my mind man 😢 This is exactly what i need , i need order , cuz not every video works for everyone. Thhhhhhank uuuuuuu ❤❤❤🙏🏼
I'm 70 and still find great tips and ideas from talented and helpful people like you. Keep it up. Never know who you'll touch with your knowledge and positive attitude!
What a cool young dude. Great anaolgy using learning a new town, streets restaurants etc. with learning the guitar. And "progression occurs in the face of challenge" is a Philosophy for life. So great to hear you using that. Awesome. 🎸🤙
As a self taught guitarist as I have no chance to go for a class due to work,You really mean a lot to me.Thanks a lot dude.I subscribed ur channel amd you'll grow faster.
Hey man! I can't even explain how happy I am that I find your channel🎸. Your edit is absolutely insane and so fun. You are so calm and sympatic and I think that I can learn a lot from you 😊. I've got my pink fender stratocaster for this Christmas, but I am playing for something around 5 years, but right now, I started to take a guitar lessons and I absolutely love it! 😊🍀
I’m 64 years old and started learning rhythm guitar to go with my lead singer job. I don’t think I want to or have the ability for lead. I go to open mics and play along good musicians that help me along the way. Your motivation videos are spot on. I’m only what I put in it. I’m so happy that you doing what you were meant to do in this world
Dude, I’m in, hook, line and sinker…. I watched your 5 tip video and thought that was great (actually majority of your tips im doing, tabs, Marty, picking songs I like, keeping it fun, guitar is next to my tv). I dunno what it is about you, but you are one of two RUclipsrs that I’ve subscribed too straight off cause I feel connected to you (and your content) and im actually super interested in what else you got to share. Don’t get me wrong, I have subscribed to many people, but you are the first (and only) that notifications are on for. Best wishes with you channel! I hope to see more videos to help me on my journey (couple of months in).
Choom i just watched two of your recent videos and i just cant help taking an instantaneous liking to you. That sincerity, genuineness and purity that you have is really empathically resonating (not sure if it's the right expression). And also, the pure joy, love and passion you showed for music especially in this video is somewhat unhumanly touching. You are such a rare gem dude, and i hope you can know that! That said, your content is really really helpful for a startup like me. i've just subscribed. Keep going and i wish you all the best!
Yo, I just found you recently, and I'm no intermediate guitarist, beginner at best, but I just have to comment that your videos were super insightful and helpful, I feel like I have a more clearer vision when learning guitar now.
it has very valueable insight . I am also learning guitar now it's about 9 months i can see my progress , i learned spanish songs , bollywood , etc .. I can play any song i known techniques pull off hammer on , also classic and spanish techniques also rumba , hand fan , radagado . But i get lost in music theory :make a video on theory same as u made on beginerr to advanced guitar roadmap
Awesome dude, now do a full course following those steps and name it "The 8 stages of O.R." xD gathering each stage in a youtube playlist like the one Justin has. You sound so fun and passionate.. Awaiting the first video of stage 1.
Till now I was just learning all kinds of random stuff. But now I've got roadmap and most importantly clear milestones. Once I become good at fingerstyle guitar, I'll come back to this video and donate 5$ (not a small amount in my country) but yea! thanks man that was great advice. Subscribed!
Wawoh this video was very helpful I have learnt a lot. Some guitarists claim to be advenced when they're not like me I have been playing guitar since 2020 (learning guitar in 2020) but I'm still sounding like beginner because what you have said I know less I have found that I still have a lot to learn thanks I didn't know ❤. Be blessed keep making tutorials following this step if you can some tips I can't wait to see them here. This tutorial was super useful thanks a lot ❤❤❤❤
I started learning the guitar from last month self taught and first song I learned was Romanza just off learning how to read tabs. Then I got stopped by the first barre chord in the song. Now I’m trying to learn open chords. I’ve been going backwards on this roadmap 😭😭
So much of what you went through and are teaching is like my own personal experience! Its awesome. Though you are leaps ahead of me, I aspire to grow as you have. Killin it my guy. keep on keeping on. :)
you said this video could have been much longer ... could you actually make one more detailed😅? i don t think passionate beginners wouldn t like it its the opposite
You have something unique and helpful to offer the DIY guitarist. Your simple approach is so refreshing. Prolly because you are self-taught. No music school attitude. Kind and approachable. Good work❤
I love your channel SO much. thanks a lot for these videos, immediately subscribed from the first vid i saw. pls make all of the videos you said you could consider. Thanks so much :D
I decided to teach myself guitar right before the pandemic started. I tried my very hardest. I came close to doing what you said as the first steps. All of these years, and, I only got to where chords come in, and, I skipped a bit, and learned some hammer ons and some percussive moves, as, it gave it interest to me, but, I think it does not come naturally to me. I still struggle and am absolutely stuck at this place. I played religiously throughout the pandemic, as, it was a healthy and creative way to get through that time. As much as I practiced, I still had trouble. Still do to this day. My question is, even though I practice, I still am muting the strings, even though I am using the tips of my fingers, and barre chords are just not working. I mute everything. Is there a trick to this? I watched videos on these things, but, nobody shows close ups of really what they are doing. A guitar teacher would be great, yet, I am just a bit nervous, so, I am trying to do this on my own. Haha. Anyway, if there is some other way to learn barre chords, that would be GREAT. Sorry for the length of this. I rarely ever write comments, so, my apologies.
Your video came at a great point in time for me! I've gotten to the point where I am really comfortable with chords all over the fretboard - can strum along with most any songs I choose in whatever key - but that's where it ends. LOL I really don't know where on earth to go from there or what the next step is to get there. Only know I am nowhere NEAR where I want to be. Thanks for the friendly guidance and reasources mentioned! Hopefully I'll figure out where to go from here!! Subscribed.
I'm literally the 90% you mention in your other video. Liked that one then watched this. I'm no natural,but I'm going to go give it a go. Love your philosophy, style and song choices. Do you have lesson tutorials somewhere? Maybe a set to tackle weekly? Thanks for inspiring me to keep trying. I'm subscribing!🤘
i kinda just went from stage 1 to stage 2. completely skipped stage 3 alltogether and stage 4 because i was focusee on more electric guitar songs so hammer ons and stuff came easier because ive just been learning more metal and surf rock. thanks for fortmating it this way because i think i can grasp basic open chords bettwr now. edit: i also learned to read tab somewhere along the line. so my guitar journey is pretty sporadic. bar chords also came easier for some reason
thanks i appreciate it. would be great if you could do a video series on guitar progression and the seperate stages. also could you do a video on barre chords
what about teaching the CAGED system? This really helps a student find the 5 positions of each open chord near the nut.??? It helped me be a better player & it is a good system of exploring riffs on the fretboard? It helped me very much, even though I am just a shapes player. It does not require tabs, or anything beyond the guitar itself. WhadoUthink?
its been just a year this feb, i've mastered all the chords and learned lots of song . but i can't progress further. my picking , speed all sucks. can't seem to understand or remember scales🥺
You're literally the RUclipsr I was looking for all these months, I needed someone who can actually be dependable in teaching us how to play guitar with 0 dollars. I wanna buy a course but if I can learn a lot from available sources, then I don't think it's bad. Btw, I wanna purchase a course from Udemy called Complete Guitar Lessons System - Beginner to Advanced (By Erich Andreas) I'd want to know if that course + my daily 2 hours practice is enough to make me an actual advanced Guitar player. I would definitely use other sources + Books to increase my knowledge too. I'm not really a "beginner" but I'd say I'm almost an intermediate (just got a bit rusty, demotivated for lack of knowledge about resources)
@@O.R.-Guitar Yeah, thanks! I'd love to improve, hope there'd be many more insightful videos dropping from your side 💪🏻 Definitely this is going to be my go-to guitar channel for advices and tips ^^
@@O.R.-Guitar Cool, I'm just getting started, about 2 months in. I really liked lesson because I've been basically been learning scales and a few runs. I'll have to structure it now. Great job.
You know, that’s one thing I want to try because I’ve never really grown nails for guitar but it definitely makes your sound so much cleaner so I think it’s a good idea to try it out and see how it feels!
@@O.R.-Guitar back after watching this video a couple hours ago and thanks to you i now know how to read tabs, learned about power chords and those pesky bar chords !
Yes! Try to find a good balance that keeps you eager to learn and doesn't make it feel like a chore. If you're learning songs try to learn ones that will stretch your abilities and teach you new things along the way!
We’ll it all depends on what style you want to master. This video was focused on becoming a fingerstyle guitarist, but many of the first steps apply to pretty much any style. Once you start to advance is where you should begin to specialize in whatever style you wish to play!
Is it fine to use tabs to learn songs in intermediate level? I am struggling to learn songs and understand chords of songs on my own by ear.....what should i do?
Tabs are fine, but try to ween off them. Even if you’re only finding a note here or there with your ears, that’s a start. Practice makes perfect! Rock on 🎸

*A Power Chord IS NOT a Root and Fifth.* The power in Power Chord is the Root played twice along with the fifth. It is the double resonance of the root and itself one octave higher that gives it the power. A root - fifth is a dyad or what some might say double stop. Also your recommended way lacks foundation to understand how to play guitar in relation to how to make music.
Thanks for the correction! I think my path was less rigorous in theory and technical learning than others, but it allows you to develop a good feel for guitar, in my experience.
@@O.R.-Guitar Cool. Most learning the guitar either get stuck or give up precisely because they tried to learn by someone's hacks. But learning that way locks one into a dogma. While chords might have shapes because chords are static, scales do not. Scales are dynamic. Scales played are runs, sequences. People who teach "shapes" for pentatonic minor are doing damage to budding guitarists. Learning by intervals, one learns by music, which is dynamic.

can you please make a video like this but oriented more towards intermediate level electric guitar? would be great
@@capybaraville Electric isn't really my realm of expertise, but I'm sure there are plenty of other fantastic videos on RUclips that would help!
I'm genuinley sorry this video wasn't an hour long. RUclips would be so much better if material like this was more widespread. Instead of the whole "third finger 7th fret BS"
by the end of the video, you defiantly proved your skill in guitar playing, you have a knack for teaching straight forward, keep it up!
Thanks 😊
I have been learning the guitar for a year now and i have notice that I stopped improving as I was lost to what I should practice. Your advice definitely helped revaluate my goals . Great video!

I've been trying to learn that stage 7 for 2yrs
Don’t give up, perseverance always prevails! 🎸🤘
damn bro you're good!
Thanks 😀
how long would you say it took you from when you first picked up to guitar to get to stage 7 of rockstar certification?
🤔 I can’t say exactly. Maybe 5 years?
great video man but i gotta be that guy, when you played smells like teen spirit you played a g and c instead of a g# and c#
🥲 nice catch dude. Thanks for watching!
Just play the damn thing and have fun!!
Exactly
ok, after 7 months of learning guitar i finally found this video.
now I'm on the 6 stage, is that bad or good?
That's great! Keep on jammin 🎸😎
Hey, i just had an question. In the beginning stages, do u just memorize all of the notes and cords or do u play songs?
Yes! Try to find a good balance that keeps you eager to learn and doesn't make it feel like a chore. If you're learning songs try to learn ones that will stretch your abilities and teach you new things along the way!
Yes please make a open chord tutorial i wont watch it from anyone else unless its you😢
What is the brand of that smaller guitar?
Martin Backpacker
Hey what guitar model is the unusual shaped guitar you play at 9:45 for example?
Martin Backpacker
Can i follow the same for electric as well. or is this specifically for acoustic only ?
We’ll it all depends on what style you want to master. This video was focused on becoming a fingerstyle guitarist, but many of the first steps apply to pretty much any style. Once you start to advance is where you should begin to specialize in whatever style you wish to play!
sir is it absolutely compulsory for us to learn percussive style on guitar? actually i have a bad nails and it feels difficult to play with them
Of course not! Music is all about creativity-find what works for you!
@@O.R.-Guitar thanks sir!
Any advice for stage 5 im stuck i have been playing for 5 months
Try songs that are challenging! The harder the song, the more you level up when you master it!
Is it fine to use tabs to learn songs in intermediate level?
I am struggling to learn songs and understand chords of songs on my own by ear.....what should i do?
Tabs are fine, but try to ween off them. Even if you’re only finding a note here or there with your ears, that’s a start. Practice makes perfect! Rock on 🎸
Can anyone tell me what app does he use to record as his guitar sounds so different than mine
I use Abelton lite.
Ме: yeah he's good at guitar
Him: *plays Polyphia*
Me: He's a guitar god

*A Power Chord IS NOT a Root and Fifth.*
The power in Power Chord is the Root played twice along with the fifth. It is the double resonance of the root and itself one octave higher that gives it the power.
A root - fifth is a dyad or what some might say double stop.
Also your recommended way lacks foundation to understand how to play guitar in relation to how to make music.
Thanks for the correction! I think my path was less rigorous in theory and technical learning than others, but it allows you to develop a good feel for guitar, in my experience.
@@O.R.-Guitar Cool. Most learning the guitar either get stuck or give up precisely because they tried to learn by someone's hacks.
But learning that way locks one into a dogma.
While chords might have shapes because chords are static, scales do not. Scales are dynamic. Scales played are runs, sequences.
People who teach "shapes" for pentatonic minor are doing damage to budding guitarists.
Learning by intervals, one learns by music, which is dynamic.
@@johnp.johnson1541 very well said!
