Bought my guitar yesterday, never touched one before and after watching your video, I've played my first tune! 57 years old! Thank you so so much.

I bought my guitar a couple of weeks ago and then watched soooo many videos which made me ask myself if I had made a mistake. But when I came across your videos and once again had hope. I'm 68 and grew up during a time when the best music of all time was and still is here. I never intended to be Jimi Hendrix or Joe Bonamossa, but just to be able to play something that would make someone say " I know that song!" Your 1 string songs have made that happen! Pure genius! My goal is to learn House of the Rising Sun by The Animals. Thanks again from a devoted follower.

As a beginner, I was disheartened with my guitar playing and this vídeo did boost my confidence/interest a lot! Thank you so much!

This is great advice for beginners, and EXACTLY how I started learning to play guitar over 40 years ago. He is basically playing the 1st (root or bass) notes for each song, and not the actual full chords. if you take your pinky and add a 5th note one string down and 2 frets down from the root note, you have a "power chord." Add a little distortion on the electric guitar and you are off and jamming.. This will work for most of these songs, and hundreds more, and is actually the way most rock and metal songs are played. Then it is on to learning full chords of 3 notes or more. Oh yeah, then those pesky lead scales....lol. It takes a lot of time and practice to become very proficient at the guitar, but this lesson is a great place to start.

Learning Guitar has been a frustrating experience. It's been really hard to keep myself motivated for 3 years now. Had I stumbled upon this video in my early days the journey would've been way more enjoyable. Your lessons are fun and that's what learning music should be about. You're doing a big favor to all beginners mate. Keep up the good work.

[LizBethTeague]

This was amazing. I'm 53 and have never played the guitar before. I was giggling like a school girl when I played Smells Like Teen Spirit. :) This was the best lesson!!! Thank you!!!

[neolapeterson]

I had a stroke and forgot how to play my guitar, piano and my accordion. That was 8 years ago and I had another one 4 months ago. I am trying to learn again and you have helped me thank you so much

[dougbull]

Idk why I been through lesson after lesson as a begginer I've learned more in a week watching this than I did in 6 years taking classes

[keithgreene]

This old man in his 80’ is looking forward to try this. Seems to be the best I’ve found. Thank you.

[lizab]

My son has encouraged me to learn guitar, I' m 44 yrs old. I love this because Its VERY BASIC and to the point. Clear and slow for someone like me Thank you so much. I would love to see more. I don't want to be a superstar I just need a creative outlet.

[racheld]

This is brilliant.  Just what I'm looking for as a complete beginner. I know you have to learn cords and how to play all strings but picking up a guitar for the first time, this allows you to play something you recognise and encourages you to pick up your guitar everyday.

i hate it when i do like 4 or 5 in a row nice and then out of nowhere

[DAZZYVANDAM]

Who are these people disliking this video? What is not like about how basic and easy this guy is teaching us?

[strongbrave]

1 finger. 1 string. The entire AC DC collection.

I have created dozens and dozens of original songs playing this way. I never thought I would be able to play guitar, but playing in this way has enabled me to add guitar to my repertoire. So if anybody is feeling discouraged about learning guitar, I can confirm that it is possible to create music without having to learn how to play chords or use all of your fingers. I have been playing this way for about four years and this is the first time I have seen anyone else play this way. I don’t feel as much of a weirdo now. 😃

[Casey.c]

I’m 60 years old and I’m having the time of my life!!!! This video really keeps me motivated!

[stephenwaynelyons]

I am 52 and have tried at least 4 or 5 on and off over the years with no luck but watched your video and all i can said it WOW I can make the guitar sound like something thankyou

[deankos]

Complete beginner here and watching this really got me buzzing about wanting to play properly someday .... even though the tunes are on one string only this is helping me massively getting a feel for where the frets are without me constantly counting them ... thank you so much for taking the time to make a video that even a total novice like myself can clearly understand .. subscribed 👍
