MARTY! I've wanted to play the guitar my whole life but I was to busy being a grown up with to many responsibilities. I'm 71 now, and I'm glad I found you! I'm hooked, and I refuse to grow up any more. Looking forward to your lessons!!! Thank you, Rick

I love how he points middle fingers at us in his lessons, it's really motivating.

After 7 years, in 2024 you still help this generation with guitar lessons, thank you marty

Hands down the best tutor on the internet. Friendly and polite, slow and methodical. Explains perfectly. A little bit of humour and humility.

Really epic work. Thanks so much!

Marty I didn't think I would EVER make it this far in playing guitar, and honestly I owe it all to you, even if I only know three chords, that's three chords I wouldn't have ever learned with you! Thank you so much Marty I love you <3

I’m on day 4 practicing with your videos as a total newbie and I can’t thank you enough! You make it so understandable for a complete beginner 👏❤️

Marty! I want to thank you! My father was a lover of guitars. He played his whole life. He just passed away 3 weeks ago. I inherited all of his lovely guitars. I have decided to learn how to play in his honor & the second I picked one up was instantly connected. Your lessons are amazing! I'm making music! I feel my Father's presence around me, it's so therapeutic. Thank you for helping me heal....

With this whole quarantine... decided to finally dust off my guitar that I’ve had since I was 15 and finally learn. Practicing the 4 chords.. I’ll be back for video 4 🤗 thank you!!

Hey, man, ever since being stuck in quarantine I've picked up guitar and looked through many websites, apps, and videos teaching guitar to beginners. Dude, you are by-far the best in the biz when it comes to guitar lessons on YouTube. I love how it's just one (or 2 easy) chords per lesson. Really gives us beginners the opportunity to focus on learning one thing at a time without being overwhelmed on day 2 lol. Just wanted to say thanks, you've been an amazing resource!

[mattreeves]

so, day 2 of learning guitar and im already playing the 4 chords youve shown us so far. i promised myself i would learn to play when i was 18. 12 years later im on the way haha. you make the experience entertaining, funny(the ring finger lol) and above all else make me believe i can play. thank you Marty. it looks like i'll be able to play a song at my wedding after all

I'm a disabled 60 year old vet bro. This is saving my life bro. Thank you so much for your lessons From my heart to God.

[zeurabbit]

I'm so glad you teach the actual chords in these videos and not just "heres a song you should learn to practice" by teaching the chords first my brain doesnt just memorize one songs patter. Thank you!

[ashleygilmore]

I have tried so many videos but your series has helped me the most

[tayleafs]

Your pace is just right for me, hard to find a reassuring lesson on youtube that also comes with backstories (which I love) about your personal experiences, thanks for these!

[thomaswattley]

I am 55 years old and now learning to play a guitar my friend gave me. I
Looked at other videos, but you are far far the best! Thank you do much for these.

[deangirl]

I am 14 and have played piano my entire life. I have wanted to play guitar for a while, and Marty's videos are so easy to follow and understand. Thank You!
