ABOUT ME
﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋
Hey! My name is Darryl Syms, and uh, well, I play guitar! I mean, I do a bunch of other cool things too - hopefully you can get to know me a little bit more through some of my videos.

On this channel, I predominantly post instructional videos to help inspire and encourage like-minded guitar players. My goal is to help you expand your musical vocabulary, to broaden your understanding of music, and to entertain. There are already thousands of guitar related videos out there, but I try to set my videos apart from the usual by exploring a modern approach, and by simply being myself! 💁♂️

I hope you enjoy what I have to offer, and I look forward to growing as a musician with you!

Thanks so much for reading! 💜

Great job! The first two chords in the beginning of the main riff is an F followed by a bar C leading up to the Dm7, if anyone cares. (See his live performances)

[JustAnotherGamertag]

You've got killer technique with your right hand man! Clean picking, and nice controlled vibrato!

[gusbus]

although no strat . you got that tone in your finger tips

[oxfordbambooshootify]

sweet cover dude. I personally think you play mayer's stuff really well. I'm hoping my rg could sound as good as yours too.. haha

[sangramchincholkar]

Awesome! Could you plz do a tutorial for his Bud Light Bar tour Helpless version ? That version is amazing..

[WeyounSix]

As far as I've seen on stage, he plays the first F major and C major as a regular style barre chord on the 1st then third fret, before fixing into the pattern on the 5th. Check out his bud light live performance, I like to copy his playstyle to get more accurate tone, as the further you go up the guitar neck, the warmer the tone becomes.

[JamesRussoMillas]

Hey man what amp are you using? Love the tone!

[faridzayish]

which single coil dimarzio neck pickup u use here?

[rohanchopra]

[gabrielmiranda]

[christopherchrist]
