It was more extras included but you’ll have to watch the video to get those included.

Dude, please do a full play through on your lessons at the beginning or end. It would help bring it all together. Great work! Thanks for all the good lessons

Amazing! That's my idol since the first time I played guitar since I'm 14. Now, I'm 19 and he's still the best teacher of beginner guitar lessons. Because of him I became who I am right now. I keep the hardwork of playing guitar always. Thanks Marty Schwartz.

We love you Marty, you r a hope for many beginners , much love from north Africa ♡♡♡

[paragparekh]

Hi Marty, I love all your lessons and the way you teach them is amazing - that's why there's no other channel like yours. I would really like to see a lesson on the way you strum so effortlessly. Thanks :)

Great tutorial as always Marty. I learned this a while back, using the capo at the 3rd but playing this way allows you to easily add in the little extra notes to make it sound more like the original track. Keep up the good work and continued good luck on your journey.

[JeffreyNaese]

I want to say very nice, Marty.I have been following a lot of your stuff that you have been teaching and it's been very, very helpful.Please keep going with it and it's a blessing

[timpratt]

Love your lessons Marty.   Like your humility.   You make it fun and easy.  I like too how you let the "beginners" just do the basics, and then you layer on the advanced.  The advanced takes tons of practice to master. So it's nice to at least know the basics just so you get some satisfaction.  Tim

Marty! You are the man! I bought your discs and you are an awesome teacher. I too quit my classes in preference to learning from you. Rock on brother!

[LexiMooniee]

[selfishgills]

Great simple way of playing the scientist! And also sounds great in acoustic + vocals. Great teacher as well.

[gibbon.enthusiast]

Best guitar teacher on the internet! Thanks Marty, 'cus of these videos I've learned more in this past week than I've learned in a year!

[longgone]

Hey Marty, what's up? I'd like to thank for all these lessons you give us, I've been watching your videos for a while now and they help me a lot. would be really nice if you could put the lyrics with the chords on the videos or on your website. I mean, you don't sing a long on the lessons so sometimes it's kind hard to know when to play each chord. Again thank so much and cheers from Brazil!
