How to play 'Heart Of Gold' by Neil Young 

I love Shane's style, does not get wrapped around showing how good he is but rather focusing on how the student can actually play the song. Many guitarist are more interested in their talents rather than helping the student. Great Job Shane!!

I like the way you sympathize with what a beginner goes through while attempting this stuff.

Lots of people are good at things but it’s rare that someone is also good at teaching. Thank you for sharing both talents with us'!

You are an excellent teacher .

I too contacted Shane for his chord sheet and he sent them to me right away. I really like Shane's teaching style. I will be checking out more of his lessons. Thanks Shane.

Great lesson!, Thanks for all the tips. Definitely going to give this a try. Like you said, it’s a classic that everyone knows when playing around a campfire. 👍👏👏👏

What a great teacher you are. The way you teach how to play guitar is absolutely brilliant. Easy to understand too

WOW 😮 What great kind Guy! I emailed Shane and asked for the Chords so I can practice after watching the video. I was comfortable to pay via Paypal and Shane sent me the Chord sheet free of charge. Many thanks Shane! Best wishes Ray

Shane you are a great teacher you explain and demonstrate in such away that is easy to follow and understand.I have improved a great deal on the guitar and I owe it to you .Keep up the great work,Thank you Tim Doherty

I agree with Roger. I'm a beginner turning intermediate and your style is perfect for me. i like when you keep going over certain points and get close ups of strings and picking or chords. Also when you play the song at the right beat just to give a sense of what is trying to be achieved is great because your not showing off. I flip between you and Marty Music mostly for help. Much appreciated. Your teaching...not showing off.

That was a great lesson, definitely the best one!

Seriously Shane, you have THE BEST videos. From "Horse With No Name" to this one!!!! Thank you sooooo much. Plus your energy is fantastic it's impossible to get frustrated learning from you dude!!!

Watching your videos is super motivating because your style of teaching makes it really easy to learn. Thanks to you I have some songs under my belt.

Thank you, Shane, for all you do for us guitar hacks. I'm learning so much from you, especially strumming patterns, and timing. You remind me of a "favorite uncle." Cheers! :)

Such a clear and awesome teaching style! Finally someone who takes the time to make sense :)

great teacher.

Shane, thanks for your help. You have a great teaching style that helps a beginner like me.

Another fantastic lesson love your lessons thank you

Thank you so much for this Shane. I have awful problems learning strumming patterns (yes, I know - I'm a complete Numpty! ) but you've made it so easy to follow, even I've picked it up on the first try. You're a wonderful teacher.

I really like the way you present your lessons thank you

Thanks Shane, my first full song. Won't be giving Neil anything to worry about anytime soon but really grateful for this video.

Geat job. I like your teaching technique.

I have been watching tons of online guitar teacher, Shane is definitely the best one. You are the only one talking about strumming pattern, rhythm and little things that make the song recognisable and therefor pleasant to play. Your songsheets are so helpful !!! Please keep up the good work. Cheers !

Brilliant!!!

Great teaching

That guitar sounds wonderful!

Cheers Shane got me playing guitar again , keep up the good work.

I am new at using Utube for learning the guitar but I love the way that Shane is teaching. I was wondering there is talk about your work sheets and wondered how to I arrange to get these work sheets

Very Nice lesson...Right on!!!!

You sir are an excellent teacher. Thanks for the lesson

Love every lesson! 🙏🎸

Shane thanks and so glad I found you. Im moving on really well since watch just a few of your lessons. Your teaching method is really good... Best regards Dave T UK

I only needed 10 seconds to decide your video is much more detailed than most other ones on this song out there. You have a new fan!

This is awesome, love it. Thank you!

Great channel. Also cool you are from my home town. Grew up just south of Ottawa.

Thanks Shane, very clear and easy to follow.

And thank you are my favorite online teacher.

Happy New Year. Thanks for another great song and easy to understand lesson. Your the first place I go to find a song I like. Cheers.

Great lesson as always, love this song since I was a kid. If only I could play a harmonica too. Lol

I have been binging your videos this morning. Great way to spend the morning. Just got my 1965 Gibson j 45 back from the shop. Thanks for your teaching

Thank You Shane started to play again after 20 years

Very good theacher he puts you in the same ball park as him from the start 👍

Excellent thanks for sharing. 👍🙏🎸🎶🎼

Thank you for your time. Everytime i am looking for a certain song to learn how to play as soon as see your face and give up my search. You are an awesome teacher...and so passionate. I am not sure it is improper to ask you to please to consider the song by Mr Bob Dylan blood in my eyes...i would appreciate very much...Joseph from South Africa!!1

Thanks for this video bro...great guitar lesson

Love your work, really! I've learned a lot from you. However, it would be nice to hear/see. the song before the tutorial to know if it is one I actually want to learn. Just a thought :-)

Thanks for making it easy..

“G” harp. Great lesson as always! ✌🏻🇺🇸

Thanks a lot , you are a very good guitar teacher. Il is so clear. I just subcribe to your Channel.

Great lesson Shane...But this one is a tough haul for campfire playing, unless someone has a harmonica and knows the track. Beyond that legendary intro, the song gets lost with just a guitar...Happy New Year.

Hey Shane. I really enjoy your videos and attention to detail. I was looking for a tutorial on 'Old Man' by Neil Young but haven't found one yet that I can play. Perhaps you would consider this classic at some point. Thanks. GP

great video again you are the best by far on you tube steve {England ]

Shane, I come back to your videos all the time. I'm progressing enough where I can play some intermediate tunes that you've made available. I have a question on Taylor acoustic guitars. My budget is around $800 can you recommend a Taylor model? I notice how full the Taylor you play sounds compared to my Alvarez acoustic. Any advice is appreciated thanks.

Long sleeve on just your right arm...I get it. 👍

Hi Shane. Thank you for the vids. I'd really like to know what Taylor model you are playing? Thanks for a reply. Chuck.

Brilliant best teaching and very well explain .welldone to you .give credit where its Jew .I can't wait to see all your other stuff you you teach in the same way .Good man like you to keep that way I understand down to a t .🎸🎤💯👍🙏💯

Hey hi.... Yes ... Beautiful 🎵song... Thanks for sharing this video.. Enjoyed learning this song🎵 Do keep posting.. Muchas Gracias The UnknownManCub 👍😎👨‍🏭

Shane how about a lesson Cinnamon Girl. Best Young song ever. IMO

How do I get the music sheets you are looking at?

Greatly enjoy your site. Easy to understand and transfer to practice. Great job. What model of Taylor guitar are you using on the Heart of Gold video? I play a CE214 and love the sound you get on the video.

Can’t find the song sheet for this one on Patreon…

How do I get the sheet music you are reading ?

I like your style and choices of songs. I think I'll need to become a member. Are you still running the program?

Wish you were here

Very good lesson..except u didn't include the outro..where it goes back and forth between E minor and D...where Neil sings..you keep me searching for a Heart of Gold. You keep me Searching and I'm growing old...and goes to C then walks down to end on G

Shane what do you have your guitar plugged into?

Siomply: The Best

What Taylor model is that sir?

I need to work on my loosy goosy

Hi Shane Love your lessons But I am a vocalist and find it hard to believe that all these lessons given by you and lots of other teachers cannot sing along with these songs. What is it with great guitarists that cannot sing??

Goes with G harp. ✌🏻🇺🇸

👏💯🇮🇪

i enjoyed the lesson....however you missed the outro

U must have tattoos on your right arm lol

I just think you should play the song first so I can hear how it's played, then go to teaching

Not good for beginners.
