He called the less experienced folks "Proper beginners" -- Makes us sound more special than the less beginnery beginners :-).

Spent three years learning on a beat up old guitar and basically learned all my guitar from your lessons..just treated myself to a brand new one and hope to continue improving thanks mate:)

[carlrichards]

Hay Justin you super star you!
I have been trying to learn something since 40 years of age now at 58 I can do this and it's the second best feeling in the world.
Guess what you are the solid foundation for this ability and those books of yours are brilliant.
Thank you my friend

Ah yes, 2016, how young and innocent we were then, eh? Once again I have wondered how to play a beautiful song on guitar and I look and find that our friend Justin is showing the way. Thanks again, may you continue being a guiding light for new guitar players everywhere!

Wonderful Justin - very well explained. Fabulous Job

Just want to say, there are a lot of tutorial guitar channels out there and over the years I've gravitated to Justins lessons. The right balance of "this is what you need to know" and then also some additional details to fine tune it to the original recording. Some specific technique tips when needed and in general a quite close to the original sound. Nice work as always. Thanks

[shirleybayliss]

Awesome thank you Justin. Beautiful song to be strumming on impending winter nights. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟

[tonydelmastro]

[SWSTINGR]

SERIOUSLY JUSTIN YOU ARE THE GREATEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER KNOWN.

[midnight___lightning]

Your videos are great and helpful and easy for a beginner. You're also very soothing to watch. Thanks so much.

[jean-michelperrot]

Hello, Justin. It is very good to look at your lessons and to your videos. You are always smiling.

[tubber]

Justin you did look so serious whilst singing then you could help but smile when you stopped great detail currently watch your dead or alive tutorial thank you

I've often struggled with tricky strumming more than anything else. The muting chords and concentrating solely on the strumming is a great little tip I should have figured out long ago. :D
