    My friend your an excellent teacher… your calm, precise and you have a very clear way of explaining each song. You are one of only few with this unique ability. I would like too learn from you all I am able. Thank you again for your time.

    You popped up on my feed a few weeks back…and I am so glad. In the past, I have played all 3 of these in covers bands from the 80s onwards. Always knew they didn’t sound right but you are spot on here. Goes to show…old dogs can learn new tricks. Great job bud. Break that 12 foot chain 👍

    I've been playing those three songs since they came out on 45s (I'm 68). And I've watched a bunch of RUclipss on "how to play" them, too. Yours is the first time I've seen the way John actually played it...tuned down a whole step.
    FIRST time! Well done.

    I've been watching your content for sometime and I continue to enjoy your lesson style. I've always wondered what the 12 ft. chain references and never would have guessed what the actual meaning is. You have now encouraged me to consider my self imposed barriers with learning guitar and to "break those chains". That may be the single most important lesson I could have received. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi 12 foot chain/Doug.
    Thanks for this splendid lesson.
    I've been a fan of CCR since back in the day.
    It's kind of funny and strange, that they've made such a huge impact, although just being together for 4 years - exactly like i.e. Cream and yet still have been so loved by and admired for generations.
    Keep the goodies coming, Doug.
    ☮️❤️🎸

    Great lesson and love the 12’ chain analogy…I constantly remind myself that learning to play guitar is a continuum and where you are is where you are and the key is to keep moving forward…good luck with your channel and I look forward to more insights about guitar and life 👍- TGD

    Comment; I’ve watched a few of your videos and wondered about 12 ft chain. Your analogy is spot on. I grew up listening to “ccr “, stones, zeppelin, and could not figure out why I couldn’t get the sound exactly like the recording. Thanks to the internet and videos like yours I have discovered the wonderful world of TUNING. Thanks you

    Yesterday and today a couple of your older videos (this one included) popped up.
    I watched both videos.
    Always wondered what the 12 Foot chain was about.
    Great name for your channel. You inspired me to play again and now to break my own 12 foot chain.🤘

I have a Holder 20 racing sailboat, and crew on a 32 ft racing boat also.. so that's the first thing that popped into my mind.. thanks for the videos... old guy...66 years old in Amston CT. going to get my epi elitist burst les paul out of the closet.. and turn up the old fender blues Deville

    Gibson Les Paul, string it with heavy gauge strings and drop it down below standard to "D" tuning, playing the "E" postion & so on with the riffs, my experience was playing by ear and learning off the Record(60s,70s) and noticing that the song was actually In D but the tones were different and finally I realized that one guitar had to be tuned down to D tuning so you could do the Rifts in the proper position (E), as I noticed in a video of Tom and John Fogerty playing Proud Mary (on a video from way back when), can be done in D, but E is way to go. Same with badmoon & so on, great video , thanks
