"I just wanted to say thank you! I've only been playing for about a year, but you’ve already become one of my favorite teachers.

Hi Bert 😊 wow what a lovely message to receive 🙏 I so appreciate your feedback and positivity! You are most welcome, I am thrilled that you enjoy my songs and teaching style. Wishing you all the best with your guitar journey 🎸🙌
Dear Amber, would like to thank you for helping me progress in my guitar Journey! Your You Tube lessons are perfect for older learners (you know us, the one's who wear readers, your graphic are easily read on the TV, including full verses and choruses, your graphics of the chords and strumming patterns are place in key places to create the best learning environment.) The way your lessons are organized, using your personal style, along with your easy to follow progression make it easy to improve. Today was the day I actually make it through a few entire play a longs! I look forward to following your weekly lessons and hopefully so, Level up with your course!
Thank you so much for the kind words - I'm so happy to hear you are having so much fun! 🤩 I also really appreciate your kind feedback about my lesson structure and the graphics. That is awesome to hear! 🙌 and would absolutely love to have you join us in the Let’s Level Up program, it’s so much fun! 🎵 🎸
Great lesson! I liked seeing the clip of your band. You’re one of my favorite TH-cam guitar teachers. I watch your lessons every Sunday. I am an older learner - 61 years old - and your teaching method is so helpful! Thank you.
Le plus emouvant pour ma part est le partage de tous ce savoir musical,toujours une surprise a nous devoilé,Amber je vous adore cette fois ci je vous laisse le soin de faire la traduction,comme cela il y aurra un petit sourir en sachant que je pense a vous 👍
Hi Alain! Luckily I have translation function on my TH-cam account, thank you for your kind words and I’m so happy you enjoyed my lesson this week. 😁🎵🎸
❤🎉 oh my goodness 🎉❤ soooo many great feels with this one ❤🎉 love the gig clip, so cool and you're definitely looking like a babe up there, whoop whoop ❤ You're so inspiring and talented, Amber. 🎉 🎸 #staystellar #stellarfam #bestguitarteacher #thestellarguitarist #stellarprograms 🎉
Having grown up during the 70’s soft rock era, Bread was one of my favorite bands. I still have them on my playlist today. David Gates is such a wonderful songwriter. Thank you Amber for choosing to teach us this song.
I'm 67 and I grew up with Bread and David Gates, awesome, awesome, thank you so much. Loved the clip on your band, bet you miss them😢😢😢 All good here in Phallies, hope you guys are all well. Some useless info, I have a niece and a nephew both living in Dubai with their families, all about your age. Take care and be safe.🤗🤗🇿🇦🇿🇦
Hi Schalk, Bread is my mom’s favourite band too!🤗 I’m so happy you enjoyed the lesson! Glad you are well, would love to get in touch with your SA friends in Dubai! Here’s my email address: amber@thestellarguitarist.com. Pop me an email 🤗
A fantastic job of breaking this song down and teaching it to all of us...your an amazing teacher I can't say this enough....thank you bella...once again your musical talents are beautiful to see....a fan for life ..to anyone here listening...like the video and subscribe to her channel you will not be disappointed ..
You know what I love about this channel? You have made popular songs so accessible to budding guitarists and singers like us, and opened up the joy of music with little struggle. Have you considered clipping out just the play-through sections and compiling them into a separate playlist? Or maybe you already have but I just haven't seen it yet! Keep it up, love your work
Hi Tony 😊 thank you for your kind words, I’m so happy my lessons have made learning songs so accessible- that’s what I’m aiming to do 🎶🙏 I have thought about creating a separate lesson just for the play along but for now the play aligns with remain within the lesson and I add chapter markings so it’s easy to navigate to the play along quickly 😊
Unfortunately since moving to Dubai I have left my band back in South Africa! We used to go by the name Stellar Skies. 🌌 when I go back to SA will definitely try to get everyone together again and do some shows. But for now my life is in Dubai and I’m happy here 😊
Hi Amber this is such a favourite of mine ❤ I was fortunate to go to a Bread concert many years ago. You have respected the beauty of this song and added your gentle musicality to make this a fabulous tutorial ❤️ Thank you for this amazing lesson 😊❤
Hi Amber! A new song that I have known thank to your channel. And…. Surprise! You play in a band. Great! Thank you for your new video that brings a sweet time to my weekend. Take care Amber. Have a nice week.
That was really masterful. One of my favorite groups. Would like to have the pdf for that one. Absolutely masterful job. Like to give you many thumbs up.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the lesson Jerry! 🙏🎸 the song PDF’s in the Song Library are only available inside my courses for my students. It’s an amazing resource which is ever growing!
Like I said the other day, I'm one of your many subs/students now. Thanks again... Now, I only have two questions this time. 1) Do you post video lesson daily or weekly? 2) What series of Taylor is that you're playing in this video? A gorgeous guitar like you, by the way..❤😊
Thanks for sharing this great song! Interesting to note that the Am - AmM7 - Am7 run in the bridge appears in Something by The Beatles (I don’t want to leave her now, you know I believe and how).
Quick little note: in the play through it's D(D)D-DU on the G C D(followed by the embellishment) rather than D D DU in the tutorial. Very lovely tutorial Amber 😊
I know it's a coincidence, but I dropped in anyway. When that song was released in 1972, I was fifteen years old and did not own a guitar. I did get a Kalamazoo electric for Christmas three years before, but I lost interest in it because it don't come easy. I did learn to form/play chords A, D, & E thanks to Van Morrison's hit song, Gloria. Since 1975 I've keep the instrument in my possession, but I no guitar man. Amber- guitar man! and my youngest son- guitar man! Thanks for teaching me how to play this song today. G
That's so great that you're back at it! Thanks for sharing your story with me. So glad the lesson worked for you. Haha I will gladly take the title of Guitar Woman 😄
Hey Amber got a new subscribe here. I have been playing for many years myself and enjoy your teaching methods. Great for people trying to learn guitar and I have learned some things from you at almost 60 years old now. Love your taste in music and you are a beautiful lady. I just wish I could sing as good as you. What do you have clipped on to your guitar strap ? And is that a Taylor 214CE ? If so, that is the same guitar I have along with a Martin. Not sure what clip on tuner you use but, they work great. Keep up the great work and thanks for what you do. Do you have tabs or the chords and lyrics for download for someone to play at a coffee house or something to use ? Great channel you have here.
Thank you so much for your kind words Fred! It's amazing to hear you're enjoying the channel and learning new things. The clip on my guitar strap is my mic, I use the brand Hollyland which works great 🎵😊 And yep you got it- that’s my Taylor 214CE. I also have a Taylor GS mini which I play every now and then too! I have TABS and chords/lyrics for all the songs I teach on TH-cam but they are only kept available for my students who sign up for my guitar courses. If you are interested you can check the programs out here: thestellarguitarist.com/courses I have an intermediate program that covers power chords, barre chords and travis picking. Have a great day and hope you check out more of my lessons soon 😊
Aw that’s so sweet to say Mark, I guess the next Best thing is online- thank goodness for the internet to connect over continents and across time zones!
