Lots of Toy Caldwell influence in this! Love it!

2 years late, so happy it came up on my feed. Messing with a lot of things, need to work on mixing major and minor. Absolutely still digging MTB. Toy was one hellova picker and some may not know a decorated VN vet. Take this opportunity to offer my most sincere THANK YOU to all who have served! Thank you Rusty for all you do for those of us trying to make music. BEST AND PEACE

I just accidentally found this site. Finally someone has put the fretboard into perspective. Rusty is an exceptional guitar player and teacher. The light bulbs are flashing. Wow I just want to keep playing and learning. I have bought many courses but none have explained things systematically and simply as Rusty. I now understand why chords and scales work together. I never had a clue what I was doing and just started back at guitar after many years. Rustys approach makes you want to learn and practice. I never understood what a root note was nor its importance. How the major and minor scales go together and take playing to a higher level. I was in a rut just playing one scale. Practice was boring and going nowhere. I am now on a completely new road and its up to me to practice and not be afraid to try anything new. Thank you Rusty and keep the lessons coming. If you truely want to progress in guitar playing then check out Rustys channel and be prepared to work. Its not the guitar but the player and with these tools you cant help but excel in playing.

I have been watching Rusty’s guitar videos for awhile now. I’ve never interacted with them until right now by liking and commenting, sharing, that’s all he asks for?
This guy is the BOB ROSS of guitar instruction!! Bob unknowingly influenced my life through the canvas on late night Public Broadcasting with his effortlessly positive disposition and excitement for the craft he had humbly mastered right before our eyes. I say unknowingly because I don’t think Bob ever really had a clue of the reach and power that his influence would yield for years to come. So, , while I’m still able to appreciate Rusty’s Guitar I want to let him know what an amazing gift that he is sharing with all of us. Above the humble and pessimistic attitude he takes with the whole concept and the down to earth and understandable instructions that everyone picking plucking strumming or shredding can relate to, it’s his genuine excitement and motivating demeanor that is infectious and inspiring. His quiet and calm way of communicating all this with his audience is what likens him to Bob so much for me. What an opportunity I would be wasting by not letting him know that I’m watching, learning, and growing from his contribution. Thank you Rusty. If there is a saint for the six string I’d expect you’ve earned that title. St.Rusty Six Strings. May all your compositions be in harmony, all your axes be in perfect tune, and all your necks be straight and true, Rock on!

Rusty,
Never really tired to play in the major pentatonic scale. And trying to combine both minor and major scales seem impossible. But you made it easy and fun. Thanks
