It's this masterpiece intro song to one of my all-time favorite Albums which I never thought I would ever be able to play. Now I do, thanks to you man!

[audioxplorer]

Great lesson. You taught well enough that I got these parts down in an afternoon without reading the tab, which is a huge challenge for me.

[Moondancer]

I used to play this 20 years ago - no YouTube then! Just picked up the guitar after raising children and will I ever be able to master it again? I’m determined. Thanks for the tutorial 🙏🏼

Check out the link to the tab and videos for all the sections to this piece. This is a superb lesson and tab. It is accurate and the nuances of the composition are well-captured and explained. I will check out your other lessons. Well done. Thanks.

Love ur videos! One criticism/request?? Can u do “Signe” lesson more in depth and slower please??
Thanks

[venkyn]

I always thought it was pronounced "Sig-knee". Probably because I knew a girl named Signe and that wasn't pronounced like "sine"

Edit: This song is so amazing. I went off on a tangent and started playing chords in the wrong order and with a slightly different melody and it still sounded good!
Clapton = God.

[krush]

Great lesson, I like it a lot and it helps me with proceeding in finger picking, but I got lost at minute 11 and the following parts - bit too fast for me 😐

[turksiya]

I dont know fluently english but I realy understood .You very good taught at we.

[wielandt]

Great stuff! That Yamaha sounds great..

[ForTheLoveOfGuitars]

Two hardest parts of this song for me:
1. The pull-off on the second fret of the B string (from the " A"to the "E" chord). This transition is difficult to do audibally on an acoustic, at least for me.
2. Playing the song loud enough
