“Dust in the Wind” by Kansas has my favorite acoustic finger style part to play. Definitely not easy, but I had no regrets learning it as a teenager. 👍 Also the intro to “Black Bird” by the Beatles is one I enjoy.
I remember my high school had a "beginner" guitar class but I joined anyway despite playing for almost 10 years at that point, plus it meant I didn't have to take calculus lmao Anyway, later on in the semester, we learned Dust in the Wind, but it was just the chords and a super easy 1 finger melody, the notes for the vocals if I remember right. But the teacher knew I played guitar for a lot of my life and handed me the fingerstyle part and all I could do was go "YESSSS" because I seriously thought I was going to have to play straight up chords and 1 finger melodies for 2 weeks
I really like Wish you were here, It's so beautiful yet so simple when I nailed that down in 15 minutes after learning it, the feeling that I at that moment was so great
Landslide by Fleetwood Mac. The Travis picking pattern and the chord transitions are staples in any finger style guitar and it’s a song that is instantly recognizable and sounds great on any guitar.
I think Yesterday by the Beatles should’ve been on here, yes it is actually old but great acoustic and then there’s Dust in the wind and for a not so known song Take a Look Deep Inside of You by Eric Gales
Everlong was the first drop D song I ever learned, and was like the third song I ever learned to begin with. With the first being Stranger things have happened. I'm a Die Hard Foo Fighters fan
Lol that is bizarre. The first song I learned was Times Like These. The 2nd song I ever learned was Everlong. The 4th song I ever learned was Stranger Things Have Happened. ESPG holds a special place in my heart, I fucking love that album. Wish You Were Here was song #3
1st song I ever learned....Folsom Prison Blues. 2nd....Walk Away (James Gang). Yea I'm old. My Foo Fighter go to songs are Times Like These and Next Year....as heard on the live Skin and Bones album. Everlong is my favorite Foo song....but I can't play it. :-(
One of the songs I learned for picking was "Good Riddance" from Green Day, it has a wonderfull Picking Pattern and sets a good standard for other songs!
1:40 *plays first chord of Hurt, completely misses a whole beat* "it really forces you to work on your internal metronome!" well you got that right lol
One of my favorite songs played on the acoustic guitar(specifically a 12 string) is '39 by Queen(written by Brian May). Such a beautiful, melancholy song about Einstein's theory of time dilation.😌 Funny that 39 years after the song's release, Christopher Nolan makes a movie with the same exact plot as the lyrics in the song.😁
I used to do solo acoustic gigs for pay at weddings, cocktail parties, etc., and developed a pretty large repertoire of acoustic tunes. Some favorites (of mine and/or the listeners) were Here Comes the Sun and Norwegian Wood by the Beatles, More Than Words by Extreme, Scarborough Fair and Mrs. Robinson by Simon & Garfunkel, Wond’ring Aloud by Jethro Tull, Walk On The Ocean by Toad the Wet Sprocket, John Barleycorn by Traffic, Mood For A Day by Yes, Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, Sweet Baby James by James Taylor, All I Want by Joni Mitchell, Change the World by Clapton, and the Intro to Weather Report Suite by the Dead. Also, I’m With You by Avril Lavigne is a really nice song, believe it or not.
I’m loving the guitar super system so far. Would love to see a funk/groove curriculum in the future. I’ve been playing for 10 years and I’ve been stuck in limbo for the last 7/8. Since I’ve signed up for super system I’ve made serious progress and recommended it highly to anyone interested.
I just love playing Neil Young's Needle and the Damage Done. I was just starting to play when I heard that song and remember being very proud after learning to play it.
So when you started playing at bout 4:00 I felt like that chord progression sounded familiar and lo and behold it’s the chorus chords to Adele’s “someone like you”
I’ve watched many of your videos. And this one for instructional purposes is my favorite because for the gals and guys just beginning, you have a welcoming and understanding approach. The future is great.
One that I would add to this list is "More than Words" by Extreme. Not only is Nuno one of my all-time favorite guitarists, but it's such a recognizable and well-loved song. The chord progression isn't all that unusual or tough, but the coordination towards doing the syncopated percussion is rather iconic.
Incubus - Drive is always a favorite of mine to go to when I pick up my acoustic. Mike Einziger is a truly underrated guitar player IMO. Pardon Me (acoustic) is incredible, so check it out if you get the chance.
I could never get the chord progression down, so I never fully learned it, fantastic tune tho! That little A shaped bar chord is a pain in the ass lol.
Well, some awesome acoustic songs that I love to play and are great to develop some acoustic guitar skiils; "Time of your life" - Green Day "Sister" - Nixons "Breaking the Girl" - RHCP "Miss your love" - Silverchair (not acoustic but it sounds very good on acoustic guitar) "Norwegian Wood"/Across the Universe - Beatles "Over the Hills and Far Away/Ramble on" - Led Zeppelin "Wish you were here" - Pink Floyd "I Remember you" - Skid Row
Everlong is my favorite song period, but I actually do prefer playing that one electric with my band as opposed to solo acoustic. My favorite acoustic song to play is Name by Goo Goo Dolls. I legit bought a third acoustic guitar so I could replace the G and B strings to get the correct DAEAEE tuning, and designate that guitar for that one song. That tuning sounds so good even on my cheapo Dean acoustic, and it's really fun to play once you have it down.
"What you give" by Tesla. That song is really fun. Simple to play, if your a fan of Tesla. Their songs are not hard, but they tend to have some strange ways of getting through progressions. Like most the song Is G/(A?), F, E, D, and C however whenever playing the chorus you play the C chord and the the last note of that bar goes back to F and the last note of that bar is C so it feels really weird as it then just switches back to the opening phrase/main verse riff. The timing is in 4/4, but being a Tesla song the way they manipulate the bar things feel slightly off time when learning a song. I can not explain you just gotta check em out!
Blackbird is an awesome way to teach double stops. Also, Hurt is my favorite way to show drop D by picking open D on the third chord, and my favorite way to throw in the Devil Tritone a la Reznor, putting in c# on the b on the first chord. Love Nurt!
Tyler (about Wagon Wheel): "Maybe it's a world-wide staple." "Everybody knows this tune." "It's just one of those songs you can recognize just by the chords." Me (about Wagon Wheel): "Never heard it."
@@kentucky1519 north country winters keep a gettin me down lost my money playing poker so I had to up and leave but I ain’t turning back to livin that old life no more
Great stuff. I’ve played for decades, but been plateaued at the intermediate level. Actually, now being in my late 50s, I feel like I’ve back slid a bit. And by that I mean, my fingers don’t always go smoothly to where I want them, now, and I’ve forgotten dozens of songs. These videos are quite helpful, especially when you mention some new learning techniques. Thanks.
Well I play a lot of songs on the acoustic, since Unplugged takes no prisoners! Let's see: Many of horror by Bify Clyro, Plush by STP, Nutshell by Alice in Chains, Hunger Strike by Temple of the Dog, Santeria by Sublime with or without Rome and many more.
Wagon wheel is the first song I ever learned and it’s easy to learn quickly. I always played it a little different with the chords on the second switch with a G D CC. It’s a great song all around
Favorite Songs to play on acoustic for me: Iron Maiden - Children of the Damned Judas Priest - Beyond the Realms of Death Pantera - Cemetery Gates/Suicide Note Pt. 1 Queensrÿche - Silent Lucidity Rush - Closer to the Heart Night Ranger - Goodbye Metallica - Fade to Black Ozzy Osbourne - Mama I’m Coming Home Boston - More Than a Feeling Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here Tom Petty - Free Falling
The thing about Wonderwall is that for a lot of folk my age (and I think I'm only a 5-6 years older than Tyler) it was literally the first song we learned. Oasis have a lot of very singable songs that are built around interesting-to-learn-and-play chord patterns. It's been a while since I played Wonderwall, but I'll bang out Don't Look Back in Anger if I find myself sittting with my acoustic. I would recommend "What's the Story (Morning Glory)" to any young person just starting to play guitar. As much as I prefer listening to Jimi Hendrix and Metallica, if you want satisfying songs to play that are juuuust-challening enough, Oasis are great.
As always, an amazing learning experience! My addition would be “House of the Rising Sun”. My band played this as our closing number at the Aurora Bar and Lounge (and hotel). Oddly enough, our power suddenly went out after the second verse. Sadly, the audience missed the great Hammond B3 organ solo.
Just started learning the guitar about a month and a half ago. The hardest song I kind of know is Over the Hills and Far Away by Led Zepplin. I've been practicing everyday so I hope to get better quick! Thanks for helping me learn the guitar! Edit: Yes I also learned Wonderwall like my first week of playing lol.
Whenever an acoustic guitar finds its way into my hands, I can’t resist “The Golden Age” by Beck. The rhythm is interesting, there’s a frilly arpeggiation, the dynamics are fun to practice.
I agree with the dude from 5watt world who says less is better and I agree only need a Les, Strat, acoustic and classical for practice. I’m good for life on my gitfiddles
I have a different perspective being a recovering drummer, Everlong was one of my favorite songs to drum. Over 3 minutes of 16th notes is just about every drummer’s badge of honor. It’s on my list of songs to learn.
Awesome riffs. I love Days of the New - Shelf in the Room. Sounds amazing, great finger picking exercise and playing it makes me look better than I actually am!!!
The hand in lap tip exposed a problem I didn't know I had. Every song I play I have to star by making the first chord shame as a jumping of point. I'm definitely going to be practicing that
Well done! Enjoyed the whole video. I haven’t learned a single song in my 3.5 years “playing” guitar but I want to learn ALL of the parts to all songs presented but Hurt. Thank you!
Been picking up and putting the guitar down for the last around 6years, I never really learned it because I continually became frustrated, but I eventually do go back to trying to do it again. I tried doing wonderwall this time around, and I was actually almost able to make it sound right haha. I was taking lessons for some time and then stopped and those lessons did actually help me a bit, the accountability of actually having to practice and show my instructor what I learned helped me a lot and actually got me to make some progress. My instructor also got me reading sheet music and it’s such a different ball game learning to read basically another language while trying. It’s extremely difficult, but it is pretty fun.
Over the hills and far away - Led Zeppelin This song taught me about my love for hammer ons and pull offs. Sounds slammin on the acoustic when you get it right.

It’s 2021 who’s requesting this song?
@@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakes who cares what year it is that song is timeless
I got an acoustic specifically for learning nutshell
wtf is "nutshell"
I don't know if it is my favorite, but I absolutely adore the acoustic version of Nutshell -Alice in chains
Kryptonite by 3 doors down is a pretty good practice song.
The thing about Wonderwall is that for a lot of folk my age (and I think I'm only a 5-6 years older than Tyler) it was literally the first song we learned. Oasis have a lot of very singable songs that are built around interesting-to-learn-and-play chord patterns. It's been a while since I played Wonderwall, but I'll bang out Don't Look Back in Anger if I find myself sittting with my acoustic.
I would recommend "What's the Story (Morning Glory)" to any young person just starting to play guitar. As much as I prefer listening to Jimi Hendrix and Metallica, if you want satisfying songs to play that are juuuust-challening enough, Oasis are great.
My favorite is My Sweet Lord by George Harrison, or Here Comes the Sun.
As always, an amazing learning experience! My addition would be “House of the Rising Sun”. My band played this as our closing number at the Aurora Bar and Lounge (and hotel). Oddly enough, our power suddenly went out after the second verse. Sadly, the audience missed the great Hammond B3 organ solo.
Yes, this used to be everybody's first song. It's still pretty cool.
Just started learning the guitar about a month and a half ago. The hardest song I kind of know is Over the Hills and Far Away by Led Zepplin. I've been practicing everyday so I hope to get better quick! Thanks for helping me learn the guitar!
Edit: Yes I also learned Wonderwall like my first week of playing lol.
Johnny Cash didn't write Hurt, he just made a version. The song, was originally written and first sung by Nine Inch Nails :)
yeah in my country we have "el sensei", it has the reputation of being the argentinian wonderwall because everybody plays it at parties
"Everyone knows these country songs!" Me sitting in my flat outside Glasgow... "nope"
Literally same
"NAW!!!"
lol I'm pretty sure that song is known internationally ;)
🤣
Exactly, I'm like who are these "everyone" he's talking about? I knew wonderwall. And that's it.
Whenever an acoustic guitar finds its way into my hands, I can’t resist “The Golden Age” by Beck. The rhythm is interesting, there’s a frilly arpeggiation, the dynamics are fun to practice.
Every rose has its thorn. Fun to play 🤟
I did not know you need 40 guitars in background to play them riffs.
Reminds me of an anecdote ' Guitars are like missiles, you never can have too...'
15 guitars
@@godsinbox this is amazing
Show offff, but still anyone who plays guitar would love the collection
I agree with the dude from 5watt world who says less is better and I agree only need a Les, Strat, acoustic and classical for practice. I’m good for life on my gitfiddles
I have a different perspective being a recovering drummer, Everlong was one of my favorite songs to drum. Over 3 minutes of 16th notes is just about every drummer’s badge of honor. It’s on my list of songs to learn.
Awesome riffs. I love Days of the New - Shelf in the Room.
Sounds amazing, great finger picking exercise and playing it makes me look better than I actually am!!!
One of my favorite riffs
Just started playing guitar last week and decided to try and learn wonderwall…. I’m glad you said it’s more advanced so I feel better about myself
Wait a Moment. THAT'S A D'ANGELICO 😍😍🍂🍂
No one talkin about it but whoa what a headstock (and guitar of course) !!
You already got my 2 Favs covered, with "Hurt" and "Everlong". I'm happy seeing you including them.
My favourite acoustic song to play is never going back again. If u have the time learn it, u won’t be disappointed
The hand in lap tip exposed a problem I didn't know I had. Every song I play I have to star by making the first chord shame as a jumping of point. I'm definitely going to be practicing that
Well done! Enjoyed the whole video. I haven’t learned a single song in my 3.5 years “playing” guitar but I want to learn ALL of the parts to all songs presented but Hurt. Thank you!
Been picking up and putting the guitar down for the last around 6years, I never really learned it because I continually became frustrated, but I eventually do go back to trying to do it again. I tried doing wonderwall this time around, and I was actually almost able to make it sound right haha. I was taking lessons for some time and then stopped and those lessons did actually help me a bit, the accountability of actually having to practice and show my instructor what I learned helped me a lot and actually got me to make some progress. My instructor also got me reading sheet music and it’s such a different ball game learning to read basically another language while trying. It’s extremely difficult, but it is pretty fun.
Good work. However, please bare in mind that : “Hurt” was actually written by Trent Reznor of the alternative industrial rock band, Nine Inch Nails.

Over the hills and far away - Led Zeppelin
This song taught me about my love for hammer ons and pull offs. Sounds slammin on the acoustic when you get it right.
My favorite must be Smoke on the water, its pretty hard ngl
@@zamppa3974 its comedy
fun fact! Put a capo 5th fret playing Wagon Wheel and you're now playing Over The Rainbow!
"Hurt" is NIN cover, lest we forget... Reznor wrote that riff.
The Old Town Road riff was Reznor too.
I felt like I was the only person that knew that info... faith in humanity restored
I like the sevendust cover best. They give tribute to Johnny cash tho.
MUST LEARNS: hallelujah solo arrangement and river flows in you. Both sound amazing on acoustic
I dont think ive ever played everlong the same way twice lol. What a legend Dave is eh
You can play anything, with that D'Angelico even one single chord sound fantastic!
From the beginning
The rain song
Can’t find my way home
Mother goose
She talks to angels
I absolutely love "You and Me" by Lifehouse, easy and recognizable for most
