GUITAR LESSON ON "BAR CHORDS AND DOUBLE STOPS" WITH KIRK FLETCHER

[@marvshinkleman6821]

I'm kinda blown away that you're giving this away and not asking for anything in return. I just learned more in about 5 mins. than I have in a long time. Thank you for your time and generosity. It's also cool to see how much depth is behind your playing; that's good to know for anyone who plays guitar because we're all still learning. Peace.

Every now and again, God gets it so right. So so perfectly right. You literally vaporise any angst and frustration I have from a shitty day etc, just by playing and talking to us.

I've been playing for 30 years and this was a great lesson. Thank You.

Your magic is that you live and breath the guitar. The little riffs just come so naturally. But I love hearing you talk through this, it really is inspirational. Thanks Kirk.

You Sir are a True Inspiring Person to anyone who has ever touched a guitar.

Thank you Kirk for not only being an incredible musician but also for being an incredible human being. I found you through Joe Bonamassa and I’m so thankful that I did! 🙏

[@MikeMichaels1987]

Massive thank you Kirk. As a 54 year old guy returning to guitar (electric) for the first time since 1992, your video has opened a very big door for me.

How's it going? Reply and learned it?
I'm curious as I'm an older man learning

[@MikeMichaels1987]

@@chusamusic1409 Hello from Scotland, thanks for your reply.
It's going great so far. Slowly learning the pentatonic scale and triads. Most importantly, I'm loving it!

[@randomlyrancannabis7020]

I play blues, soul and reggae 99% of the time and it's amazing how much theory a person can know without realizing they know it.

[@johndelaurence664]

I love the way you teach and the underlying joy and love of music that is so evident❤😊

[@chusamusic1409]

His free playing matches perfectly with the quick reflection (captured in the moment) from a whiskey glass.

[@chusamusic1409]

We started as a thrash metal heavy metal band but his playing captivates us

[@twillie205]

Thanks. I'm a blues dad learning a new hobby that won't send me to the doctor, so lessons like this go a long way. Your joyful personality makes it all that better.

[@BobEstremera]

This should be your next Truefire course. Major and Minor blues and funk with double stops. I'm buying!

[@josephheikes1459]

You and that 335 belong together. Super clean chords. Thanks.

[@ericvandewetering7117]

Like watching Bob Ross paint! I am truly mesmerized and fascinated by watching you play the guitar and talk about bar chords and double stops. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Great lesson, but what really caught my attention was the way you speak. Gently with a big smile and shining eyes. We need more of that kindness in the world.

We met at Jim's guitar shop in Torrance and talked about Bill Doggett! Good to see ya man! Maybe we'll jam sometime. "Honky Tonk".

Hey Kirk, thank you for this excellent bit of guitar wisdom. I could listen to you talk about this stuff all day - your warmth and humanity comes through and makes learning such a pleasure.

[@AllanDee]

Kirk, You are an absolute gem. Your teaching style is what I've been looking for after years of noodling my way around the Internet looking for courses or some other magic bullet so I can learn at a pace that keeps me engaged and wanting more. You're giving so much knowledge away and putting so much love into the guitar community.. we just can't thank you enough for your kindness. I only wish I would have found you years ago! ♥♥♥

Thanks Kirk, I appreciate your way of teaching, it's very helpful

[@kkjhn41]

This is how music stays alive, by passing on the lessons you've learned just as these things were shared with you by players you've come to know. There's never been a better time than today with technology enabling the ability to reach so many people and there's never been better teachers than those like yourself who care enough about the music to want to take the time to share not just the mechanics of music making but the joy of how music enriches and gives meaning to life. Just saying thank you seems like not enough, but it will have to do until something better comes along. Thank you.

Kirk . Such a nice lesson. I started the same way. But never got into triads. Double stops. Love the sliding 6th thanks always

[@jpayne3616]

Dang thats pure beauty my man.

[@zeezeetube]

As a kid, I took guitar lessons from an accordion player. Those early music books had a lot of bass runs included in the “Old Suzanna” kind of songs. I didn’t really take to it at the time. Looking back, I did myself a great disservice. Once you hear them, you hear the snare. Then you hear the chords and melody line. Finally, the licks. By salivating over the flashy licks, I stunted my progress by years. At this old age, I’m obsessed by the connective tissues. So much so that I now listen to accordion players and watch their left (bass) hand. Life has a way of coming around full circle. Those bass hooks are magical. Thanks for a wonderful lesson Kirk.

[@robertjames7285]

That lesson just filled in a huge gap in my playing!

[@jasonsheets2694]

This video just highlights the need to know theory. It makes riff writing and song writing so much easier when you know what will fit in any given situation. When I started playing 30 years ago, I had no idea what keys were or what chords fit where. It was pretty embarrassing when other guitarists would call out a key and I'd have to have them tell me what chords to play. I took lessons and theory really opened up the fret board for me.

[@rogerowens5669]

My brother this is the first time for me on your page I found you on Brett looking forward to spending a lot of time with you thank you for all your input have a fantastic day
