Me: “wow I might be getting the hang of this “
Marty: just starts jamming out with his “simple” riffs
Me: “ok”

You guys make it look so easy, I always feel like I'm cuting my fingers on the wires.

Ads keep saying you can’t learn guitar from YouTube- I’d say I’m doing okay for just doing guitar in my pastime 😤

Marty : 5 minutes a day for beginners

As a classically trained pianist, I'm picking up electric guitar for the fun of it. Your lessons are great! It absolutely amazes me how simple the power chords and the classic riffs of some of the bands I love actually are. It blows my mind.

[michaelkinaman]

I wanna just say thank you for helping us new players I love how you break it down and make it simple thank you sir

Marty, I'm a war Vet and have a hard time playing the guitar. I just donated to your Patrion site. your lessons are helping strengthen my muscles. I want to play more cords but can't at this point. I love the power cords, because I can play them without too much pain.
Thank you, you are the best

I'm 15, and I'm learning a 7 string electric guitar while in quarantine🤣 I've had my guitar for over a year, and never touched it. So I thought this would be a good time to learn. I thought playing guitar would be challenging from scratch, but so far it's going good :D. I already got the E, G, A chord down already in 2 days. I've been playing for 10 minutes or more everyday.

But this lesson, I could tell this is gonna take more than 2 days to get used to, because my middle, and index finger keep spreading themselves to another fret, but i'll get better.

Thank you :D I never thought I could ever play guitar, but I know that anything is possible. Playing guitar is super FUN.
Anyway...I'm go and play guitar now.

I'm 77, retired for 23 years and in the past year taking up the 6-string electric, 4-string bass AND a 61 key Korg keyboard - with only an entire life love of music as my 'training' & motivation. Enjoying the hell out of it. Chords, arpeggios, scales. Bring it.

Marty's "Intermediate Foundation For Electric Guitar" course has 40 Video Lessons, 10 Bonus videos and a 37-page printout of keyboard diagrams, etc. I purchased it yesterday and have downloaded the first ten video lessons for offline viewing. Printed out the 37 pages of diagrams on my printer. This course is a true value IMO. Glad I looked into it and took this step!

Wow! Just picked up my guitar for the first time today and a couple hours later I know how to tune it, learned about the strings and crazy enough I now know how to play power chords, all thanks to you! Thanks, man! Now I just need to figure out the hand placement better so my wrist stops hurting

That power chord is so hard to do with small hands...

[lindaashby]

When there's a pause in my day, I find myself rhyming 0-3-0, 5-0, 3-0, etc...can't wait to get back to it.

[bigboi]

I’ve been playing for ten years and I love these videos to jam to

[jetstreamsam]

Im a 14 year old whos always loved the guitar and really wanted to learn how to play it. Your lessons are easy to understand but even though I practice butterfly knife tricks on the regular, apparently i have to do some dexterity training because my hands HURT. I picked up the guitar literally yesterday and now I know how to tine my guitar, the strings names, and like four power chords. Your lessons are awesome, dude.

[berlinbearb]

By far the best lessons I have found on genuine great guy and teacher. Thank you Marty. I was gonna give up till i found you.

[CrimsonShadow]

Big thank you Marty! I've been playing e-guitar for 2 months now and your tutorials are helping me a lot! Your style of teaching songs and theory is awesome

Marty: practice 5 mins a day
My mom after 1hour: keep going!!!
