      Thanks so much Marty for all you do and the time you spend teaching others the art of playing guitar I've played for quite a few years but find your video tutorials always helpful it's funny to find out you've been playing a song the wrong way for so many years.lol Again a BIG Thanks to You.

    When I'd been playing for about three months, and was feeling too big for my britches, I played this at my first open mic. It went unbelievably wrong. Longest four minutes of my life!

      The fact that you had been playing for 3 months and played at an open mic just says how good you are at guitar. I’ve been playing 3 months and I’m still perfecting the basics.

  • @mokaza40
    @mokaza40 Před 5 lety +1

    Ayyy that clap tho! Thanks for the lesson Marty.
    I appreciate you doing a quick full playthrough in your intros. Do it more often! Because when I first started learning from you, I had to rewatch every step over and over again.
    But now I'm experienced enough that I can just watch your fingers and know. That's all thanks to you. So instead of watching you explain every little detail (not a problem, you make videos for all levels) i can just watch your intro for your quick finger patterns.
    Of course I watch it all when I'm really stuck.
    Moral of the message is, you taught me how to be a better guitarist. Keep up that format and the passion. All love Marty.

    Thanks for fleshing out the rest of the song for me. And thanks for everything you've done to assist my first 7 months in guitar. It continues to be one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, and you've been a huge part of it!
