I am not a complete beginner, but found this lesson fascinating because your teaching is so crystal clear, linear, polished and laser focused. Also I had not thought about a progression like this with open chords - hey why not! Lastly since I am new to percussion moves, this was really nice and basic so I could start at the beginning. Your teaching skill and polished presentation is extremely rare. Thanks so much for your work. I uspect a packaged complete course for the rank beginner would be a big hit. I'd take it!
Thank u thank u thank u . I really wanna learn guitar but it's always rock chords which are cool but I wanna play soul funk rnb and neosoul and all the others tutorials are more advance beginner intermediate. Finally I can learn the guitar and enjoy it. Plz make more of these ❤️
Loving your videos! Will definitely purchase the udemy course soon. I'm curious if anyone with some experience would mind answering this; how high should the strings be above the frets toward the end of the fret board? I have a hunch this guitar needs some work to be easier to play. Bar chords early up on the neck is easy, but as soon it is past 5th fret it becomes really hard to keep it clean.
Thank you so much for keeping the absolute beginners to guitar in mind! I’m playing on an electric guitar. Do your acoustic lessons still apply to electric as well? Please make more videos like this because I am a super beginner but I want to make neo-soul/r&b my main style! 🙏🏾🔥
I don’t know what level I fit in but I was able to follow both versions (my pinky hammer ones aren’t as fluid and my bar chords aren’t as clean sounding) but thank you for the lesson and I will keep practicing!
this looks interesting to me and maybe easier than trying to learn some rock or complex blues stuff. im older and never really learned to play properly so this makes me hopeful lol
First off thanks for the video buddy. I got a few tips, kinda long, but i hope it helps you help me get better lol 1. I think the biggest mistake teachers make when teaching beginner guitarists is assuming we know the chords and the lingo, in this video alone you're throwing around all kinds of words that i literally have to Google or watch another video to explain. You're saying something whilst saying what we should be looking for whilst also calling out the chords and then guess what... I'm confused!! 2. The idea that this style... R&B might be my first style period, seems to have gone over every R&B guitar teachers head. Almost as if i shouldn't start playing guitar here, in the music i like but in something else i don't like. But i got a question for you, who on earth plays or listens to music they don't like? I want an actual beginner lesson, where you explain how to approach the guitar, how to approach a thing that you love, and appreciate and want to make a part of who you are. I don't want a 13 min video that is just you showing me you're amazing at this and you are! But it would be better if i got music that explains first and foremost why that string? Why that chord? Without it being college lecture and i mean if you say " i play this one it sounds like birds... Believe me when i tell you i can relate to that more than... Play the A chord, I'll learn the chords eventually, but I'm between me getting good and where i am now i just still wanna have fun playing... You know what i mean 🤷🏾
I can agree. Hearing all of these chords and everything can be super confusing for a beginner. But he’s doing a great job demonstrating I just don’t know WHY he’s playing the notes that he is playing yet
I feel like Neo soul/R&B can never for a complete beginner, there many techniques in here, muting, hammering, thumbing, weird shape cords… just go for C major song if you’re a complete beginner of guitar.
