    your form of logic distinguishes you by light years from other teachers. This type of teaching comes from your deepest knowledge of what a beginner is.
    A lot of academic guitarists say - well, now we do 20 easy blues exercises for beginners and I almost break my fingers doing it.
    Born out of your logic, you slowly introduce people and increase the pace in a perfectly acceptable way.
    I once took 10 hours practice lessons before i stop it, from an Austrian top star in the early 90s, his talent was terrific, but an egoist cannot teach, because looking down is the wrong level. you love what you show, thank you very much, i learn a lot from you!

    Jules, why didn't I find you sooner but so glad I did. The blues are where my passion is and while I still am only a beginner your lesson here is clear, straightforward, simple to understand, perfectly discribed and shown. The progression from 4 notes to a complete use of all 6 strings is, well to me, magical. This will be something I play with and expect my blues playing to actually become music!! Thank you

    Jules! I just wanted to drop by and let you know that I really enjoyed watching your video. Your presentation style was simple and effective, and I loved how you incorporated a blues rhythm in the background throughout the entire video. It really added to the overall experience! I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Keep up the great work! Eric.

    That's ridiculously clear and easy to follow, I'm sitting in my car with a travel acoustic practicing it and jamming along to you as a beginner, you made the slide over so much easier to understand and its place, I could never resolve it before, the leading with the third finger makes so much sense.

Your camera angle is what I needed so I can see exactly what your fingers are doing. So as you can imagine I’m now a subscriber. And I really look forward to learning more from you. Thanks so much man. Take care. Colin. London.

    This is BY FAR the EASIEST and BEST introduction to playing scales I have EVER seen! I started learning guitar as a teen but never got past learning a few chords and memorizing favorite songs from TAB. I ALWAYS wanted to create my own music, especially solos, but always found the instruction complicated and it would put me off. The way you teach, with visual aids and examples along the way, made it not only easy, but FUN! I’m SO happy to have found your channel, and will definitely be back for many more videos! Cheers brother!

I was a bit confused looking at the fretboard examples having the nut on the right side and looking like I was looking at your guitar not like so many other sites with the nut on the left side. Now that I understand I love it.. Old Guy trying to learn new tricks.
