All my life i wanted 2 play the guitar. Always envied the the guys i met wen i travelled around the world with my backpack. Now 60 years of age, i play since i became 56 years. My children put some cash together and bought me a western guitar. Took me a couple of months to start actually playing. I use CZcams and started with Marty Schwartz. Soon after that i found you and you really lifted me up. Now i have 3 guitars and always take my Alhambra classical guitar to work. I work with the mentally ill and they are always glad when i come 2 work...with my guitar. Thank you so much for all your explaining and showing how 2 put your mind and specially feeling into playing.
If there's just only one guitar teacher out of all of them I'd pay money for a private lesson, it's you Marco. I've watched several of you videos "using only simple chords like..." and then you use them in a way that I don't understand what's going on at all... But the sound is just most beautiful and filled with such emotion that I just forget about the fact that I don't understand how you can play each chord like that, and I just listen...
Dear Marco, as a beginner, this was the most encouraging and inspiring video you have ever made for those of us beginners who are slow to grow and frustrated that we can't make our guitars sound musical. This one was an excellent example showing me the "how" professionals can make a guitar sing so beautifully even when simple cords are used. Thank you.
What a great teacher, who demonstrates rather than talk, making the lesson interesting to the end, never boring moment. The tonal quality of the guitar always excellent. Keep it up Marco.
When someone says less is more and brings stupid popstar with nonmelodic two chords song as an example, i would gladly let them watch this video, this is less that is more
I crafted a song that included these 4 chords before watching this video. It’s called SNOW FALLING….. I love this chord progression, thanks for the post!!
I only have one guitar my entire life and I'm still using it, i wish i could buy another that sounds exactly like your guitar. And i noticed them guitars at the back, i bet they sound as good as the one you're using. ☺️
It´s just by shifting small things in greater things there are no need to have a big package because with small we can create greater !! Music it´s wonderfull
thank you another awesome video... question: do you change the scale with the chords when writing the melody ? this has always confused me, for example C is the tonic after playing C-chord than E would become the tonic after Em-chord ... or you stick to the scale of the key you're in ?
One scale. This is in G major, so I use the G major scale. Of course, if you play a C major chord, still use the G major scale; however, you might want to move around the notes that make up the C major chord to make it sound more like you know what you are playing instead of just noodling around hehe. I hope this helps.
I have been playing for decades ( not terribly well..) but have never understood why people insist on referring to beginner guitarist with the derogatory term "NOOBS" ...
You are the best influencer for us who have a dream to get better in guitar. Thanks for everything that you have been done for us. Love From Bangladesh.
You can play one chord in 5 different in ways(barreing different shapes)...that's 20 different ways for 4 chords That means if I have to pick 4 from those 20 variations of chords, I can have (5^4) possible ways of playing...that's 625 different combinations(taking at least one of every chord) of playing 4 chords If you just take all the combinations regardless of getting every one of those 4 chords then you'll have (20*19*18*17), that's "116280" possible combinations for a 4 chord progression 👁️👄👁️ So you can never actually say that you're stuck in a 4 chord chord progression

Correct....

You're simply my favorite guitar teacher, Marco!
Wow, thanks! :)
How did I found you only now. Just bought my guitar few months ago and was almost giving it up. You made me pick it again. Love the way you teach
Marco, sounds so good and reasonably straight forward using as you said four basic chords.
Thank you Marco for sharing your awesome gift to many, like myself, are still learning basics...

Ed Sheeran - Perfect for @2:00 "'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love. Not knowing what it was."
Marco, do you mostly use Furch Guitars ? Red ?
So so good :D
Can someone tell me the brand of his guitar
I have been playing for decades ( not terribly well..) but have never understood why people insist on referring to beginner guitarist with the derogatory term "NOOBS" ...
Amazing
Waiting for this……. Magical
Awww Sana all po maganda guitara 😢
Super cool
Wow!
You are the best influencer for us who have a dream to get better in guitar. Thanks for everything that you have been done for us. Love From Bangladesh.
Great
U r really cool.. Wish to have some tips to improve ❤️
Love 💗
nice... there's chords now... can't keep track when you are new in a guitar...
What guitar make and model is that?
It's a furch GN (Grand Nylon). I bought the most expensive and I honestly don't remember the exact model hehe. Great guitar though.
You can play one chord in 5 different in ways(barreing different shapes)...that's 20 different ways for 4 chords
That means if I have to pick 4 from those 20 variations of chords, I can have (5^4) possible ways of playing...that's 625 different combinations(taking at least one of every chord) of playing 4 chords
If you just take all the combinations regardless of getting every one of those 4 chords then you'll have (20*19*18*17), that's "116280" possible combinations for a 4 chord progression
👁️👄👁️
So you can never actually say that you're stuck in a 4 chord chord progression
Se alla know poi are stili on! Clean UP!
What guitar are you playing?
F for furch. lol u gonna go out & get one? imho it's not the guitar but the guitarist :)
G-Em-C-D+12/8??
-Oh Noooo!! Not that "Perfect" song again :((
A "Like" anyway, for the nice tip and beautiful sound!! :)
Sounds like perfect by Ed Sheeran
I just want 1 guitar from u😅😊
That’s the progression of teardrops on my guitar by Taylor swift. Just need a capo.
4 chords is a bonus, all you need is three chords and a divorce to play country..............
It sounds like Ed Sheeran songs...that guys must be a big of Marco stealing ideas from Marco LoL
Axis of Awesome.. four chords.
The noob word hits hard hahaha
lol
wow you have so many guitar, can i have one? hehehe
This melody sounds beautiful and relaxing♥️👍, I will practice, my classical guitar doesn't sounds like your's so beautiful 🤔
Best of luck!
x 0.5 speed - thank me later.
Love how creative Marco is, having sympathy for us beginners! Thanks bud
Its really pretty.
Enjoy!
Isnt that a song?
