Brother, I want to thank you for blessing me with these videos. I am a 56 year old beginner who really loves Jesus. Your lessons and simple approach is allowing me to go deeper with the LORD. God bless and keep them coming!

I now have two guitars because you have convinced me I can do this. My 4 chords are now mostly clean and I can play some simple songs. My students at school thought I was amazing because I played “Happy Birthday “ for them to sing along. It was not my best but they couldn’t tell. Thanks Matt! I’m 60 and learning!

You are a great teacher, the best I've seen on YouTube so far. I've been able to attempt playing following your instructions.

I cant thank you enough for these videos. I have been trying to teach myself basic worship music off and on again for 20 years. It has been really hard for me with strumming patterns and rythym. With your basic four cords and basic strumming it has made things so much easier and I am starting to play much better. Thank you!

Thank you as a songwriter I’ve tried for years to play guitar as I love it but, you’re so right the fingers, brain situation and repetition. It’ll take awhile indeed. Lol French Canadians are good business people, merchants from France 🇫🇷 but, playing an instrument? Not so smart. Even with international business degree. 4 languages fluently. Maybe it’s not for everyone? I love your video you make it fun vs hard work. I have felt pretty stupid over the years. I have a guitar exactly like yours. I’ll keep trying. Fingers get all cramped up and sound horrible. Sadly even my neighbor said, please stop Jim! Lol kidding I wrote a beautiful love song and got praise from my buddy Jeff ‘Skunk’ Baxter. That was nice. Now I must use this guitar to play what I wrote. I’ll check back in 5 years.
