    Marty I actually don't believe that anyone that want to learn how to play guitar can easily learn and excel rather quickly with your easy and simple approach in how you teach guitar. Something sounds complicated to play but, you have broken it down in sections which makes it very easy to play right away. Thank you for the years of lessons that you have been given us. Giving us the confidence to pick up the guitar and actually play. 🎸❤️❤️

    Marty ,I am 66 yrs old. I first started playing guitar just a few yrs ago. I stumbled on one of your videos I not play15 beatle songs and many other bands . It's because I purchased mustang sally discs on one of your promotions. you taught me to play guitar and I can't thank you enough. Oh yeah it's now 16 beatle songs. My family and friends are amazed. "GOD bless" for your teaching ability and ease in which you do it.

    Marty that's why you're the BEST!.. You show a Classic, ICONIC song like THIS, that I LOVE, and you don't just show the "chords to strum" like some lessons here, you ADD embellishments, bass lines and fills between chords, that SEEM so logical, and SOUND so GREAT, you wonder HOW Anyone could give a lesson Without them!.. THEN when I ADD your little extras to my vocals, I have something that I'm just Waiting to PLAY for someone!... Thank you for what you DO, Marty, THANK you!.
    May you have an even Better 2024!

    I have been a fan of The Beatles since 1968 (six years old) when I got my first album. It's been a rare day since then that I have not listened to a Beatles song. I was also given a Harmony guitar in 1973 which I still have, but never did anything with it other than learn a few of the basic chords. I tried a few years ago to take lessons but I just couldn't get into it. Then I was watching an outtake where Himesh Patel is singing "Something" to Ana de Armas on the James Corden show from the new movie "Yesterday" DVD (that got cut from the final film), reminded me of how beautiful and powerful that song is. So much so that I decided to not only take guitar up again seriously, but to spend as much time as I needed to learn this particular song because it does mean something to me. Thank you for the tutorial, this is the one I will be learning from. : ) Cheers.

    As much as I love the entire Beatles catalogue, my favs are George's: Something, While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Here Comes the 🌞; and 1st song I ever learned was Don't Bother Me. Under-appreciated and late bloomer
