I've been playing electric guitar for many years and stuck in a bit of a lead guitar rut because I perceived that as the path to guitar mastery. However, I'm having so much fun learning all these different acoustic guitar techniques, Justin. It's really giving me more appreciation for rhythm guitar and keeping me honest. You're lessons are a real gift to the guitar community. Thank you for all you do.
Justin is by far the best teacher on youtube. Thank you for keeping these coming! I will have been learning for a month tomorrow and im so proud of how far ive come thanks to you. I seriously cant thank you enough. I get paid soon so ill definitely have to give you some money. Im only 18 and i dont get loads of money but id be paying far more for lessons so its the least i can do :) youre seriously changing my life. Thank you
Hey Josh! Thank you for your support, it's really appreciated. :) I'm glad you enjoy the lessons, and I'm happy you find some meaning on them. :) Happy 2021, wishing you an awesome year. Rock on!
justinguitar.com is the only reason why I attempted playing the guitar. 7 months later, and I'm still at it because of your great teaching ability. Thanks Justin! Awesome upload the Man in Black
Ring of fire is my 1st song of life learn from your channel on guitar when you posted 8 yr back, I think. There is lots of Difference in your voice between these years. Only thing don't changed is your age😀. Still looking younger 😎. Good going sir👍
Many thanks for the super thanks and supporting the channel. It means a lot. Cheers 😊 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher www.justinguitar.com
Thanks for another great lesson Justin, interestingly enough it was written by Johnny's wife and sister in law who had a hit with it before they started dating but he definitely put his own unique stamp on it for sure
One thing that's fun about this song is how much scope there is to explore and put your own spin on it without getting too far away from the proper feel of the song. I like to play the 'and it burns burns burns' part of the chorus sorta punky with all downstrokes, gives it a nice energy. One of those songs you can keep coming back to and improving your playing of as you learn.
Didnt think I would have expected this as a song I'd want to learn, despite how well I know it. That said, your constant easy and clear lessons just make me want to grab the guitar and get going. Thanks Justin, as usual!! Happy new year to you and yours and have a good one!
This was EXACTLY what I was looking for!!!!!!! As an intermediate, this helps a LOT *-especially-* since I *-JUST-* got into finger picking(; Thank you, Sir. If more videos were as detailed as this, many more would pick up Guitar "quicker than quick"! Keep it up🔥👌😁
Do I want to do the finger style pattern ?? What do you think? But it ain’t easy , is it? Guess I just push on . Your program gives the structure I for one needed . Thx
Start off with regular strumming to get the song structure and tempo in your fingers. That you might try the actual picking pattern. It's harder than it looks; you might want to revisit it later on; some of your songs will get better over the weeks/months/years you play them, as you learn how to build upon them.

Outstanding thank you for this. Please please please could you do a lesson on redemption by jonny cash. Not redemption song the cover he did the one from his 1994 album produced by Rick rubin called 'redemption'. I'd be forever grateful 🙏
Awesome lesson! I play well enough to have picked this up in about 15 minutes, including the melody parts you explained, but not well enough to figure out how to integrate the melody for the rest of the song on my own. I wish there were a more thorough explanation for that (or at least tabs) because I LOVE your rendition.

I'm not sure if you said this, but the second verse is different than the first, right? When he sings "I fell for you like a child" the C chord comes in sooner than it did in the previous verse, and it affects the rhythm of the "horn" riff that comes in after that!
You should do a video of Drive by Incubus, it is 1 of the most requests songs i get people asking me to teach them, but it is not a super simple song and most of the ones that want to learn it are very new to the guitar and i just don't have the proper words to teach them how to flip chords and turn your fingers into pretzels, i just play the songs, either by ear or by sheet music, been doing it long enough it is just a second nature for myself so that makes it much harder to explain, you really have a way of explaining it on a simple note. yet again another great song by a great teacher.
As willie Nelson has gotten older I watched him play one of the songs he wrote with a solo in it, Christmas song Pretty Paper could you do a lesson on it with the solo?

Thank you for your hard work and new material. I have been learning with you for 9 months now. I am currently studying your music theory 4 course. Can’t believe I have finally learnt all the notes on the fretboard with your brilliant lesson. Thank you!
That math part, kickin' my butt. But playing what I'm feeling seems easier, however the math keeps creeping back in. The melody I've got down, like I'm impressed on how quick I got it down. Now this is where the maths kills me, trying to strum the chorus w/o that common melody. It seems like I keep doing a mix of a swing style during the chorus and just strumming the melody in no particular maths :D If that makes sense. I'm gonna have to record myself probably. G C G C G & the G D G D G melody I've got down good... I like fingerstyle, but my finger strums I haven't worked on so I'm flat pickin' this one, but with a pick I'm doing what you are doing melody wise. OK I've rambled on & confused everyone and myself. Thanks for this, I used it for inspiration I guess :)
Fantastic Lesson. Happy New Year Justin Sir🎉🎊. I have learned guitar from you. I hope you will create a full fingerstyle guitar series in depth ( from beginner to advanced seriesstuff. I have your songwriting book and it's amazing and really helpful and I just love all your lessons.. I just love fingerstyle💯👍🏻. By the way keep us updated with such amazing stuff👍
Are the rhythms just ever so slightly varied in the second verse? I'm tearing my hair out to make it fit but when I play along with him it seems like he has just a couple of very small changes to the pattern of the verse.
if youre talking about the calluses on the finger, that's completely normal. just takes time to build up the strength on the fingertips. just try to practice everyday.
Start at a set, slower speed like 3/4 or 2/3 speed of the original and just get a feel for the changes. Once you're comfortable at that speed, try and go faster. For example, if your song is recorded at 90bpm, using a metronome play along with it at 75/60 BPM to get a feel. Rhythm is a practice thing and you just need to keep going :)
Yeah you have to start slower. Slow enough that you can manage the rhythm without making mistakes. Then increase the speed slightly, like 6 beats per minute (using a metronome). And then practice for a long time! Took me a long time to realize the truth behind that, go try it yourself!

Cheers :)
Justin excellent tutorial but too advanced for me I will follow and donate toward you exemplary lesson
Thank you!
You're a better singer than you usually give yourself credit for. It helps me understand how the guitar works with it.
Are the rhythms just ever so slightly varied in the second verse? I'm tearing my hair out to make it fit but when I play along with him it seems like he has just a couple of very small changes to the pattern of the verse.
Fantastic...hey just any chance you could give a lesson on hiding my heart away ?...adele
Hi Justin Happy New Year, is there anywhere you explain the 2 finger G your playing thanks
Yep! All explained here: www.justinguitar.com/guitar-lessons/the-g-chord-hacked-b1-602
Finally! ; D
I just cut my finger, shit I want to learn this😂
if youre talking about the calluses on the finger, that's completely normal. just takes time to build up the strength on the fingertips. just try to practice everyday.
Audo mate how are you how's things going
Justin I'm able to learn songs easily but I have a hard time with my rhythm. I try to count along but it makes everything harder
Start at a set, slower speed like 3/4 or 2/3 speed of the original and just get a feel for the changes. Once you're comfortable at that speed, try and go faster. For example, if your song is recorded at 90bpm, using a metronome play along with it at 75/60 BPM to get a feel. Rhythm is a practice thing and you just need to keep going :)

Took me a long time to realize the truth behind that, go try it yourself!
Love the lesson. How about Personal Jesus done by Johnny Cash.
Wrong hat cowboy
The guitar is emulating the horn
Please be piano on that gutiar dont want to disturb neighbors
