Great lesson Chris! I really do learn a lot from you my friend! You make awesome Lesson videos! Talk to you soon 👍

Is it me or is your low E flat? That or your A is sharp.
Aaaw, I dunno. Probably me. I spent half the day trying to set intonation by ear on a POS. After a while, perfectly tuned guitars sound screwed up and screwed up guitars sound right...until you try to play them. Lol

G gdim em forget the d just complicates it all

Hi, thanks for this video, I thought it meant walking up or down the neck… the only thing I find confusing is that your diagram is flipped from the orientation of your guitar. Couldn’t you orient the diagram to match the guitar?

WHAT IF.... you can't get ur thumb over the top of neck. I have a thin neck and still cant do it

Thanks for the lesson!

Can you explain the walkdowns used in the intro of Mr. Bojangles please? Key of C.

This is escaping me! There is a strumming pattern then 4 notes prior to the verse. (The verse emphasizes the bass walkdown of C, C/B, Am7)...

And THEN it sounds like a walkup...but its 4 notes??

Thank you!
