Hi Justin.  I'm 59 and just took up guitar this last summer.  Fingers aren't as nimble as they used to be but I'm getting there. Love your lessons.  I'm currently learning "Paint it Black" and can't think of a better song to show my wife I haven't been wasting my time.  Whatever song I try to learn down the road I'll definitely be checking your lessons first.

Hi Justin. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your lessons.  It is so cool to be able to play songs that I grew up listening to.  I am 70 years young and I have been playing guitar to keep my mind sharp and also because I really like it.  I have learned everything from you and Marty on Y/T.  I think I have progressed to  high beginner level and I know I still have a lot to learn. Best wishes for you in the new year.

I swear I get chills when I hear the riff come together, this song will always hold a special weird place in my heart

this was one of the first songs that made me fall in love with music aged 11! i'm 20 now and teaching myself guitar and it feels fantastic to be able to play this and make it passably sound like the original ♡ thank you Justin

Fantastic lessons recently, Justin. You're on fire!

I will never get tired of saying this guy is the best guitar teacher online ever, THE F*king GOAT! Justin Sandercore.

Justin, you have by far the best Rolling Stones guitar lessons on YouTube. Thank you for making them and please keep them coming! As Tears Go By and of course (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction would be appreciated.

I just got my guitar yesterday and I’m going to be watching this video over and over again until I can get it right

The intro riff is 10 times easier with finger picking.

Can't believe it's taken me until now to learn this song, but after the cello performance of it in "Wednesday" I just had to. Justin, your breakdown and treatment of rock classics has been consistently excellent throughout the years. Thanks so much!

[heisenbooger]

The intro riff slowed down sounds really evil. I like it.

[SergeyGuitar]

Really like how this great song sounds in Justin's hands, very much worth learning ...

Just found your channel this week mate, was on the right hand side of the video for Norwegian Wood. One of the best links I've clicked. Cheers for sharing your skills for free dude.

I am a one day old guitar player but have been watching videos on the Youtube for a few weeks. At first I was intimidated by the skilled guitar players opening their videos with flawless riffs of the various songs I desired to learn. It's because of this intimidation that it took me so long to buy strings for the free guitar I was given (it was given to me naked). I have since moved away from this perspective and seen it as more of an inspiration to the things to come. I love your vidoes and look forward to learning from you. You are incredible guitar player. You seem both knowledgeable and passionate about your skill. I don't know if you will ever read this but I didn't want to not thank you, so thanks.

Another great lesson illustrating alternate picking. I remember playing this when the song was relatively new. I'm almost 60 now and been playing off and on since I was 8. I love playing and am still learning songs I used to listen to years ago and still do.

[candyje]

Can I just tell you how much I love you!!! You are not only a GREAT guitar teacher, you're also so personable and fun. THANK YOU for all you do!!!

[vincentmaloney]
