I swear people don't understand that there aren't shortcuts to most things. The best way to learn how to change chords, as shown in the video, is to pick a couple of chords and change between them as fast as you can cleanly, then pick up the speed.

Came to change chords, ended with changing my learning skills

This is what people should actually be teaching you. Every kind of roadmap I've seen so far typically goes from "okay here's how you hold your guitar" to "here's tapping and shredding" within a span of 3 minutes

Finally a guy that isn't looking to sell a pay wall course. You genuinely want to help people play. First vid I saw was the 0 to 6 levels video so helpful.

There wasn’t a second of filler in this episode. Every sentence and point had a meaning and I love it! Well done man

Woah. I swear I found you a few days ago and you had 200 subs. Congrats on the growth. It’s well deserved and I’m sure there’s more to come. Also I like what you said about avoiding “Noise” when it comes to searching for helpful exercises and videos as a beginner with the guitar. It’s easy to get bogged down with how much advice is available on platforms like YouTube, but diligently practicing the fundamentals will get you far.

Kev, I’m loving your methodology here. I’m 64. I messed with the guitar in my teen years. Then life happened, marriage, kids, job. And I set it down. 3 years ago I picked up a ukulele. I have 3 now. I enjoy it. Now I have a guitar. One week as of this post. And I’m a fan of your teaching. I practice every day. The internet is great for this stuff. I’m starting with 20th Century Man by The Kinks. Because it has everything I need. Hammer on’s, slurs and interesting chord changes. Love the albums on your wall. My room is just like it. But more albums.😂 ima keep watching your site!

How ironic that I found the guy who seems to get my pain of wasting time looking for the right videos rather than practising by looking for the right videos. Finally!

Im 17yrs old and I started playing guitar December 25th of 2022, inspired by my favorite rock bands, metal guitarist, and r&b players. I knew nothing about the guitar, and it felt so foreign to me as i picked up daily, my confidence wavered and i wanted to give up, but with a burning passion for the path to be musically sound i practiced what I could everyday. And to have been only playing for 7 months I've been given alot of recognition. Recently I've felt I'm hitting a plateau, but you have inspired me beyond the edge of the cliff we call danger, and to see that it is a dive of new hope. Thank you truly and you deserve even more love 🤘

Man I got my first guitar last week. started your videos two days ago and the way you taught made me understand guitar so much differently then I knew. Can actually see my progression instantly thank you

[sunwu]

Dude, as a professional teacher, I have to congratulate you on your videos and journey of developing your learning road map. I've spent s day or so looking around and curricula is all over the place... Like you said too much info available. As a teacher, I always thougjt of my students and their needs and went about trying to meet their varying needs. This mindset and approach will surely help guitar newbies and probably get your content known/spread. If I may, don't forget to always explain what something is, what it's for, and how to use/apply it. Got yourself a sub. Thank you and best of luck w/ the channel.

[idanheskel]

You came in at just the right time for me. I got a really good handle of the basics, found your video (you know the one) and knew you could really help me develop my guitar skills. This exercise is just out of my comfort zone right now, and you explained it brilliantly. Thank you, truly!

[jchapman]

Wow!! You are a fantastic teacher. There are so many guitar videos that spend a minute or two explaining something... then the teacher just starts playing stuff and I'm like lost for the rest of the video. Your videos are amazing because they are logical, clear and JUST MAKE SENSE!

[sirajpatel]

Your channel is the perfect combination of tangible advice, optimal mindsets, and good edits; you know your stuff. I would say small quick graphics/images that relate to the current frame could help but I already appreciate any content you throw our way.

Looking forward to see you grow

Amazing video. Amazing channel. Amazing guitarist. Amazing husband. 🤍

Good day to you, I injured my hand a while back. Stop playing for nearly 30 years. I wasn't great at it but managed to do OK. But once I could play again I was getting frustrated due to exactly what you showed, changing chords successfully. Following your lesson, it took only a little bit more than a week to get back on track. Thank you so much.

[leontedumitru]

I just can't believe how good the explanations are for playing guitar. And from the comments I believe that I'm not the only one who thinks that. You're doing just fantastic, please don't stop making great videos like this🎉❤

[karenbaldwin-porter]

I really like your style, and your humor. I started learning about 30 years ago, from a book in those days. Got so I could strum a bit and then got side tracked. It had been more than 25 years since I touched a guitar but then I retired. I was surprised when I picked it up again how quickly the open chords came back, and I've worked out barr chords, which I didn't have when I stopped. I have virtually no music theory beyond the 12 notes and I would like a bit of that so I could maybe figure out how to add and embellish a little sometimes with walk ups or downs and turnarounds. I also really need to work on rhythm as I seem to be stuck when it comes to strumming patterns. My plan is to start from scratch watching everyone of your videos to fill in some of the many gaps in what I know. I'm not looking to become a professional guitar player or to start gigging. At my age that would be too funny. However, I would someday like to say I've made it through the beginner stage. In the meantime, I'll be watching you. Congratulations on the 1000 subs!!! They have been well earned.
