How to play 'Learning To Fly' by Tom Petty 

Thank you . I find your lessons so very well explained to the detail .

Very nice... can’t get enough of Tom Petty! More please.

Thank you. For the love of god a tutorial that starts off with the song, doesn’t spend 5 mins promoting himself and begging to subscribe and gets right to it. Then slowly and fastly walks you through the tutorial. Also great two camera shoot and lavaliere mic sound.

I rarely if ever have commented on RU-vid or other media platform but felt compelled to do so in this case. I have been playing guitar on and off for almost 40 years (took lessons for several years as a teenager) and must say that you are a godsend. The manner in which you provide instruction is the best I have seen (and there are a lot of good tutorials out there). You simplify a song that sounds complex by breaking down the components of the song, chord structure, strumming patterns, finger placement etc.. to the point where someone with any remedial guitar knowledge can quickly sound like they've been playing the song for years. It has revitalized my interest in guitar and I am increasing my campfire catalogue at an astonishing rate ....it helps that your song choices are great as well. Wish you were my guitar teacher back in the day! Thanks for these videos Shane and keep them coming!

Brand new to guitar playing and I've been practicing this for several weeks now. The way you break it down slowly is very helpful. Can't wait until I can turn up the tempo and make it sound like TP!!

Awesome song! I love your teaching style!

Thanks for all the great tips and making playing the guitar fun again. Greeting from Oregon.

Outstanding Shane. Thanks so much for this one.

Excellent teacher. Thankyou so much sir

Thank you Really needed this 🤟

Best tutorial for this song. Thanks!

That was great shane, I'm just learning this song at 66, this is so helpfull thank you from Australia xx

Superb Shane, thanks!

🤘🏻love it

The best Learning to Fly riff on the Tube. Thanks so much. Effective strumming isn't as easy as it looks...as I have daily proof...

Hello Shane..i still don't have a guitar to practice on but i love watching you do the tutorial.....

Great job!

Great, thanks.

Nice ! I see where that special sound, I was missing. THks raveondave.

He is so goooood 😎👍👏👏👏

Please do all the Tom Petty you want, love playing his songs, bought a telecaster just for that reason.

I love how you talk. You sound like a tour guide lol.

That big kid's G is killing me man lol the stretch!

NVM. It was in their song match tool as Blues1 at 117. Thanks.

Ur the best on here

Great....

Huge Petty fan. Would love it if you could do any of these: A Mind With A Heart of Its Own, Kings Highway, You And I Will Meet Again, Two Gunslingers, Dark Of The Sun, Rebels

What BBMini2 setting would you use on Wildflowers by TP? It is not on their song matching tool.

Great lesson! That Am7 chord is tricky for me because my pinky finger is struggling to stay on the high E string. Also, here's a great live video of Tom Petty playing the song: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4S5e7c2_YO8.html

Hey Shane. Great lesson. What Beat Buddy Mini 2 setting would you use for Learning to Fly by TB?

Can't you tune the thinner E to G and remove the whole pinky finger thing? It will still sound similar right?

Hi, could I ask what your guitar model is? Is it 614ce 814ce? Etc thankyou

Hi Shane...
