Thanks so much!

Thanks! It was an idea they "borrowed" from Glen Miller, who was a master arranger and who often used the 6 chords as a closing crescendo. The Beatles were big Glenn Miller fans and, of course, masters at emulating their musical idols.

Thank you so much 😀. There is lots of other stuff - on chords, triads, CAGED, and patterns on the guitar. Come on by any time. And if there is anything you want a lesson on, let me know: I am always looking for suggestions from my viewers! Keep on playing and having fun!

I am glad. My whole mission is to demysitfy all the things I found confusing when I was getting started. There are lots of other lessons here on chords, triads, CAGED, patterns. Let me know if there is anything you need!

Thanks! I am glad it was helpful. I have lots of other stuff here on chords, harmony, triads, CAGED. Let me know if you are looking for answers - I am always looking for new lesson ideas!

Hi! This is just an excerpt from the full lesson. Full lesson shows both hands! th-cam.com/video/qx2jU4dZQZE/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared

It was Chuck Cannon - an incredibly gifted Nashville Singer Songwriter. There is a 5-part workshop he led in 2009 right here on youtube: th-cam.com/video/ZxPzrzmdYes/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared Enjoy!

A guitarra é afinada padrão: E A D G B e. Obrigado pela visita!

Thanks! I have a few more Prine lessons here: Summers end, in spite of ourselves, hello in there. Also Blaze Foley's Clay Pigeons and a couple of Gurf Morlix songs too. Have fun and enjoy your guitar! And thank you!

@@bonarsmusic01 Is there a way to get the tabs for these songs on a printed sheet or in downloadable form? It's much easier for me to learn if I can see the whole thing in one place. Is it possible to buy these from you?

@@100perdido email your request to me at bonar.harris@gmail.com. tell me what song you want. I have my own transcription notes for most lessons.

@@bonarsmusic01 Fantastic. I will e mail you soon. Thanks Again.

Thanks! You might also enjoy the lesson for "summer's end"

Fantastic! Rock on! 🤘🤘🤘

My pleasure!

Ebony is just as good, if not better, but takes a little more shopping. Worth a mention though! The main thing is to use a good dense material, and not cheap plastic. Thanks for stopping by. Visit again soon!

Thanks! Hope you had fun!

@@bonarsmusic01 Yes ! Thanks again. Best regards from France

Yep. I learned Daughters when it came out. A beautiful song.

Salut!

Glad it was helpful! I just want to get everyone playing.

Not sure I endorse this. I am more of a "baby steps" kind of guy, but I am sure your "extreme callus" method works - for the "hardcore" student. 😃

@@bonarsmusic01 yeah, I did it many years ago at a time when learning/playing was really basically an addiction, and 27 years later, I'm pretty sure I couldn't do it again.

Okay...

You're welcome! Have fun!

I hope they're helpful! Have fun!

Glad you enjoyed the lesson! Yes, I am Canadian.

@@bonarsmusic01 all the best from Grand Forks BC

Thanks! I lived in Gibsons BC for 20 years. Beautiful country!

Thanks! I have a few more John Prine lessons here: Summer's End, In Spite of Ourselves, Hello In There, I Remember Everything. More coming soon. More Blaze planned too. I also have a couple lessons on Gurf Morlix songs: One More Second and Crossroads. Gurf was Blaze's friend and musical partner back in the 1970s. Have fun, and keep playing!

I appreciate the humour, but I am addressing a video like this to actual beginners who don't already know what to do. Please be considerate of them. Try to remember how YOU felt when you were just learning: you were hungry for all the help you could get. Thanks for stopping by!

@@bonarsmusic01 Geez. Excuse me for trying to help Mr. Grumpy.

Sorry, not being grumpy. But if you were serious about 12 winds, then you are mistaken. You literally only require 2 or 3 winds around the capstan. Honest. I really know this stuff. This is the engineering magic of the concave tapered capstan. It uses an ancient design derived from the cleats used to tie off rigging on a sailboat. The taper of the capstan squeezes the guitar sting into position, and locks it in. Even with only two winds around the capstan. I promise!

I have a bunch of John Prine Lessons here on Bonar Guitar. I also just published a new Guard Morlix lesson - crossroads. Gurf Morlix was Blaze Foley's friend and collaborator back in the 1970s. Let me know if there is a song you are looking for help with: I will whip up a lesson! Keep on playing!

Sorry about the typo. Otto Correct fights me every day!

@@bonarsmusic01 auto correct gets me all the time. When I finish Clay Pigeons I’ll definitely look at your other lessons.

Email me: bonar.harris@gmail.com. I will send it by return email

Have fun!

It works. I have used all of them, over the years!

Well, I remember everything is not EXACTLY beginner stuff, but there are TONS of beginner lessons in the Beginners playlist here. poke around and see what you think! Good luck!

Hope it is helpful! And fun!

Thanks! If you are ever looking for a lesson on a special song, leave me a comment. Always happy to crank out a new lesson by request! Have fun!

That's great! Have fun. And look around the channel - lots of other great tunes. Check out "one more second" lesson. You might like it.

Thanks. He was a brilliant player!

I am glad! Have fun!

I am glad these tips are helpful! And I have quite a few John Prine song lessons and more on the way. Have fun!

I'll check it out! It's on my list! (I love Gurf - he's a wicked songwriter and an awesome guitar player too!

Just Posted a new lesson on Crossroads by Gurf Morlix. I would love your feedback on it. Keep on rockin!

Yes, I have taught "green eyes" before, so I am a little familiar with Kate. I have just looked at "trumpet vine". Great tune. I will shoot a lesson soon, and I will let you know when it's online. Maybe in the next few weeks.

That might be. I have not analyzed his right hand thoroughly. I transcribed the notes he played, and provided my best estimate of the easiest way to play them. Mississippi John Hurt played mainly with thumb and one finger, and Lightning Hopkins too. Mostly it is effective, but it actually makes some faster riffs harder to play. Merle Travis usually used thumb plus two fingers.

@@bonarsmusic01 Merle Travis 2 finger pickn style.

I stand corrected. The "Travis Picking Style" is often two or even more fingers. I learned it from Chet Atkins lessons. But when I go pack to actual Merle Travis videos, in fact he was thumb plus one, as you have described! And a wicked player too!

@bonarsmusic01 From what I understand and see after watching Mr's Prine and Travis, they're style comes from the small town Coal Miners area and that keep it simple way of moving on the fret board. Keep up the good work !

What some call "lazy" others call ingenious! Well done!

Okay. Officially (as I said in the video) I would take it to a technician now. However, if you have a small awl, you could reach into the sound hole, and use the awl to pull the ball down, setting it free. Carefully brace the top of the bridge with the other hand. There is a risk of damage, but if you are careful you might be able to get it free. If you watch the video I demonstrate how to carve your bridge pins so the ball cannot get stuck. Good luck!

@@bonarsmusic01 thank you

I will! Thanks for the support!

Thanks! 😃

Thanks. I have a few other John Prine lessons on the channel too: Summer's End, Clay Pigeons. In Spite of Ourselves, Hello In There. Have fun and enjoy your playing!

In my. experience, more pressure does not build calluses faster. Of all the tips, NOTING accelerates callus development more than frequency of play. If fingers don't hurt (from too much pressure) you will practice more frequently. That is the number one callus builder. Even if you only practice a few minutes at a time; practice as frequently as you possibly can. Also, good grip and precision placement give you speed, mobility and great tone. Do you want to sound like Jeff Beck, or do you want to sound like Doug from next door. Up to you.

@@bonarsmusic01 gotcha, thanks 👍, I just started learning guitar literally a week ago so my advice is always to be taken with a grain of salt, thanks for clearing that up!

@@tronpig Please have a scan around my channel. I have a whole playlist of lessons for beginning players, and most of my short videos are aimed at beginners. I hope you find some helpful stuff. And let me know if you have questions or are stuck on anything: I monitor the comments and try to respond to everyone. I want you to learn yo play - as easily as possible. And I am sure you will! Have fun!

Good luck. I have a few more wonderful Prime songs here on my channel. Have fun!

I am glad! I am making the videos I wanted when I was learning! And don't worry - lots more in the works! Thanks for watching!

Thank you!
