I’m a retired senior with loads of time to pursue learning guitar online. I’ve spent countless hours seeking out lessons to help me for whatever I’m working on. After a lot of thinking and listening , I’m of the opinion that you Dave are the best I’ve come across. THE VERY BEST. There are many great teachers online but you are for me the best teacher/instructor. I like your style better than Tommy Emmanuel. He’s an awesome man with a guitar. He’s an entertainer more than a teacher though.Thanks for all that you do. If you provided pdf’s for the lessons that would be so great.
Agree wholeheartedly. This strum lesson is very, very good. I'd love to hear more muted string strum demonstrations. For some reason that muted string demo in this video was what got me understanding the rhythm. I"m just a novice beginner (like Tim, retired with lots of time to learn!).
Thank you so much! Your precise wording, description, and demonstration of each individual component of this technique (which I've been struggling with haphazardly for months, now) make perfect sense to me, and I'll no doubt have reason to rewatch as i continue learning. You've done a superb job of demystifying what's actually going on within the context of creating the forward-moving drive which does so much to make this song as compelling as it is. Wishing you all the best, and nothing but!
The perfect lesson for what it was intended to focus on. I look for what I need to focus on a specific technique or weakness I have. Great job and thank you!
That's a really good lesson, even if these are simple techniques it is sometimes difficult for a beginner to get it sounding right and you have a really helpful way of explaining the details, it has helped me a lot as I was having trouble getting that strumming pattern right, I could do alternate bass easily enough but the strums were messy and now I can see how to improve, so I am very grateful. Thank you.
Some (one in particular!!) complain about the over emphasis on the Strumming rather than chord progressions! I'm NOT one of those because, although I've been playing for 3 years, I've struggled on the mechanics of strumming and my pick gets stuck on the strings. I liked this emphasis on the strumming - brilliant, thank you. Oh, by the way, chord progression part was good too!!
Bro you got that stuff drown so sweet and you can just as well articulate the details, making them easy to understand..... and the amount of ways you tell us your tricks is making it understandable for even my dumb as f. noob the first info what ever got me to think "HOW could I never see how 'easy' it is"?" (once explained right) THANK YOU
I searched your channel, but I didn’t find the electric Folsom lesson you mention here. Did you ever make that video? If so would you mind adding a link to it in the description please?
Essentially it's just bass-down-up, alternating between a low note and a brush strum. See if this helps: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mAbup6giLZk.html
That's a Paige capo, there's a thumbscrew that centers behind the neck. Keeps the pressure even across all the strings, intonates better than a Keyser-style one-hand capo, and more convenient than a Shubb.
Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins! Come to HIM!
