Thank you so much for offering beginner's lessons at a slow pace and for the close-up views of the hand positions. This is exactly what I need right now!

O' Joy! This is the best video by far for how to play C Chord!! I am beginner beginner... and very short with very short hands and fingers.... I have been close to tears thinking I would never be able to play it and after watching so many videos I still could not get it right. Until you! Changing how I hold my guitar, resting it on my left leg and holding it as you instruct in this video made all the difference!!! Best instruction ever ... you are a great teacher. I have a long way to go and a lot of practice... but I now have hope (which not only motivates me to keep going, but I feel I can relax and enjoy the process more). Thank you so so much for this video!!! :)

At 69, I am just learning to play the guitar. This is the best video I have seen explaining how to play the c chord. Learning it. a piece at a time, the explanation and demo of where and how to place the fingers and thumb really helps a lot.

So far, your video's have taught me more in 2 months than what I tried to learn in the past 20 years…Thank you for taking the TIME, that some of us need, to learn..Your Awesome!

Bob telling us to put the guitar on our left leg is so helpful! My hand just hurts way to much with it on my right leg.

I've been playing for about 3 or 4 days and I've listened to several online tutors. I love your style of teaching because of your clear and concise teaching style. I do have a degree of difficulty playing the C Chord but I'll certainly keep trying at 66 years of age. I'm subscribed and I've rung the bell. Thanks much.

If you are having trouble learning the C Chord, your troubles are about to end. This 3 video series of lessons shows exactly how to do it, not just what to do... and there's a big difference.

I really appreciate your detail in these lessons, so many others that try to teach do not provide much detail!

5 STARS FOR AN EXCELLENT BEGINNING GUITAR VIDEO! I FOLLOWED YOUR INSTRUCTION/SUGGESTION TO USE MY LEFT LEG FOR SUPPORTING MY GUITAR ALONG WITH USING MY ELEVATED ADJUSTABLE LEFT FOOT REST AND IT IMMEDIATELY MADE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE AND IMPROVED MY FINGER POSITIONS FOR HOLDING THE C CHORD AND OTHER CHORDS, AND IT FELT A LOT MORE COMFORTABLE AND MADE IT MUCH EASIER FOR PLAYING THE C CHORD AND THE OTHER CHORDS THAT I HAVE STRUGGLED WITH OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN THE PAST YEARS. YOUR GUITAR VIDEO HAS ALREADY HELPED ME GREATLY. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS 5 STAR VIDEO!!!

I found who I want as my teacher.Very patient, going over everything several times and very thorough. You don't pull away from the lesson for 5 minutes to show off like other guys teaching. Who wants that? Not me. Your the best!. Thank you. Laurie land

[cristalm]

Yay! I have been struggling w the C-cord for days now. Can't wait to get home and try this out. Thank you!

[Jax]

I've really struggled playing a C chords for 2 weeks now, I just couldn't reach it with my stubby little fingers but just that one trick of having the neck more angled instantly worked for me and let me play a clean C chord. Finally I can start actually playing beginner songs.

[smokeymc]

Just out of curiosity, why do all these guitar learning sites try and teach "easy beginner songs" using the c and f chords which most beginners cannot play. I have been playing for 2 months and on a really good day I can play a clean c chord but not to the point of using it in a song. If I see a song that has c and f chords I have to find something else. Frustrating to say the least. I am on your site again to try and learn the c chord but my fingers do not want to cooperate at this point. I keep trying so I know eventually it will happen for me.

[katherinejones]

Genius! The leg tip is EVERYTHING! THANK YOU! :-D

[hanpointing]

Hi, thank you so much for these free lessons!!! It's so straight forward, very easy to understand. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

[laurieallen]

I am "thrilled" about what you are teaching us about the C chord. Oh my God has that's been hard for me. Like somebody else said in these comments if I see that the song I want to play has a c chord in it? I'm out of there ha ha. Seriously my fingers are small but what you are teaching about the C chord? I am so happy because I didn't know anybody else was having trouble with that and now I feel like I'm home. I just adore you. Thank you so much

[WildCaptures]

Me and my daughters are learning together and this video really helped with "C" Thanks a bunch I subscribed👍

[walkyourpath]

I love you! :) your the best. Exactly what teacher should be like. You make it easy to hang in there and want to push through the awkwardness of learning to play. I have been practicing slowly, a little each day.
