This chords sound so freaking good and give me chills! Greetings from Italy!!

[jessefpv]

When I first got my guitar. Had to end up pawning for personal reasons. Loved it. But this is was my first riff I learned. Not from anybody just playing around picking I came up with this off the top. Had no idea it was this!

[craigmckee]

This is great - I love the sound. It would be amazing if you showed they rhythm too - e.g. played it through once with 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and so it was really explicit. Thank you!

[RCMusic]

I love your lessons. Thy're very thorough and I can apply the lessons easily to my playing.

[johnl.]

So beautiful and so clearly explained! Great tone by the way! Added theory following the actual teaching of the chord and picking patterns is brilliant and masterful! You’re one of the best on YouTube!✌️❤️

[markgiliczo]

You are very good Teacher!!! Thank you from Hungary!

[Malinovvsky]

Subscribed to your channel after watching this video you're a great teacher 💪

[jrvisions]

Love how you always clearly explain and show things at a comfortable pace without rushing through it all, making it all so much easier to absorb. I’m hooked on this channel and also currently learning a ton from your R&B acoustic course as well. Couldn’t be happier to finally be getting a better grasp on this style where it was so much more challenging to learn elsewhere. Thank you and great as always! 😎❤️🎸💯👍

How do you pluck all the strings at once like that? 3:15

[Picksqueal]

7:15 Just wanted to chime in to say I believe this is called a "Glissando". Admittedly this is a somewhat generic term that seems to apply to slides as well.

[cloutdoors]

Where can i find that drum track or something similar?

[botv]

Hello nhạc sĩ đàn hay tuyệt vời thích quá môn nghệ thuật âm nhạc anh đàn nghe quá đỉnh 🎸❤️👉🔔 OK like 🎸👍👍❤️❤️

[Kdsound]

I absolutely love this, I wish you would have added a bridge to a chorus

[margiesplace]

Subscribed! tasty chord progressions..thank you!

[faceboyproductions]

With the Cdim7 are you barring the b string on the 2nd fret creating the hammer on? Or is the b open (like the tab shows) and then hammering on. It sounds bad when I do it... definitely due to my experience!!!

Your teaching method is awesome I'm just stuck on this - enjoying the content!

[annemariekaczorowski]

Interesting fingering on second AMaj7. Going to try that.

[staticchair]
