Hi, I'm Mark and I've been teaching and playing guitar professionally for 26 years now, and I've picked up a lot of insights along the way; things I wish I had known when I started out. That's why I started this channel - to share this knowledge with you.
But this is more than just a place to learn guitar. It's also place where you can hang out, relax, be yourself, get support, make friends and get inspired to have more fun with your guitar. So go ahead. Pick up your axe. Hit play. And be a better guitarist.

Who notice his face at thumbnail and in the video totally different 😂

[@timothyahernRoxyCat]

So, fine, but stop moving so I can read your arm.

[@someoneelse318]

The truss rod is not intended to adjust the action, but to compensate the pull of the strings to keep the neck straight. If the neck is curved upwards too strong, adjusting it down will lower the action as a side effect though. That means you should adjust the neck curvature first, then adjust the action starting from that point if necessary.

It’s not that risky to shave your

If any acoustic is over 70 thousands at the 12th fret? YES, it's too high.

[@mirsinit7826]

My guitar's action is 7 freaking millimetres 💀

[@pay9011]

My first guitar was a used one as a gift. I learned on it the hard way because it had very high action and hurt very much to play it in the beginning. I recently bought a better used acoustic with lower action and find it difficult to get comfortable with. 😕

2mm from the fret guys

[@kevinmenezes9521]

Great video, I get very nervous while playing the guitar in front of someone but when I play the guitar on my own I play it really good but in front of some one I sweat and feel that the person I judging me pls help 🆘👍👍👍👍👍

[@PaperClipFlip]

Great video! Really helpful. Is there a difference in the things to look out for in the set up of an Acoustic VS. Electric guitar? Do these apply to bass guitar as well? (I'm thinking of learning bass as well) Many thanks!

Big help. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. After a bit of tinkering I’ve got my old guitar sounding great and easier to play than ever.

Great video. I feel like my guitar has changed over time and will definitely get it checked out. Subscribed.

[@garrettamburgey4788]

Excellent video! Very informative. Thank you.

[@daveyjoweaver5183]

Thanks! I've playing guitar over 50 years. You give good info. Play on Brother! Davey

[@jonobester5817]

DUDE, thank you so much for being so generous with your knowledge! I have been a violinist all my life, but have come to play a little guitar. This helps tremendously.

[@dime_life4768]

In my experience its extremely important to adjust the truss rod to its correct position before any saddle work, assuming that is already taken care of.

[@Robinechampion]

Thank you, nice explanation. Just what I needed.

[@Takoon]

Really helpful and patient explanation, thank you!
