Hey guys, thanks so much for all these inspiring comments. It means the world to me. No comment goes unread, I just hate that I can’t respond in depth to everyone personally. Thanks again and keep up the good work!! GT
I agree with you, if you want the “put your first finger on the first string first fret” stuff, buy a course. The stuff you provide here is conceptual and if you hear a lick you like, use your ear to figure it out. You can even slow it down on TH-cam. I wish this kind of technology was available when I was learning, but maybe wearing out some of my favorite LP’s was better in the long run.
The people that dont get it dont understand what a gem you are that we get to learn from you. Ive played for 32 years, toured all over, played shred metal and would consider myself a good guitar player and one of your just jamming, improv intros changed my life. Basic foundational triad runs that you made awesome that I had never built on and it blew my mind. You are a top tier musician and one of my all time favorite guitar players ever. Thank you.
Guthrie, I took your artist works course for 6 months a few years ago, which I extended for three more months. I can’t say how much this time helped my playing. I am 62:and played in bars all my life. Before these lessons, I knew how to play songs but I can’t say I truly knew how to play. I now play quite a lot with my eyes shut because I always know where I am on the fretboard. That is what your lessons did for me and I can’t thank you enough! One of these days, I’ll get down to Nashville to see you and your band live! Sincerely, Ian
It's truly ridiculous to complain about your presentation. To it's like being invited into your home like a friend saying hey bro check this out. That works just fine for me.
I've only had a couple opportunities to meet a great player and talk to them about guitar. Steve Morse was an incredibly gracious guy. He sat down at our table during a break and just talked guitars and life as a pro player. I just soaked in every bit of insight and knowledge I could get out of it. That's the way I look at your videos my friend. Whatever you are able to share here about the things that you have learned, I'm here for it, and just grateful you are taking the time to do it. Thanks Guthrie. Appreciate you.
I apologize in advance for the length of this comment. Thank you for what you do. It is so appreciated. You are an inspiration. Thank you for pushing us a bit. Most of us need it. You do it because you are passionate about wanting us to learn this amazing instrument. You have generously provided a masterclass here, for free. I am about to dive into your new Truefire course, but now will spend time digesting this first. You have touched on these concepts (notes from the previous chord that lead into the root or third of the next chord) several times before but now go into detail. You are kind of giving away part of the store here, but you want to be helpful. Please don’t change anything about your approach. It is perfect for intermediate players who already know the notes on the fretboard, chord and scale structure, and intervals. It is frustrating for an intermediate player when a teacher has to spend time saying which fret on which string to put which finger because the teacher, understandably, wants to speak to beginners as well as intermediate players. People: buy the courses. Guitar teachers have to make a living. What they do on TH-cam is a gift. Appreciate it. Beginner players: please don’t take offense to my comments here. The guitar is so rewarding, and I wouldn’t want to say anything to steer you away from it. Just take what you find here as inspiration. There are many, many teachers on TH-cam who will teach you the basics. Having said that, as Guthrie has said, if you just slow down his videos and take them note for note you will learn so much. it is time well spent. But it is on you to learn the basics. You won’t regret it. And then you will be in position to absorb the teachings of the greats, like Guthrie Trapp.
Excellent comment. Guthrie, Uncle Larry, several others give us so much information. It really is such a wonderful gift. Many thanks to you Mr. Trapp. You're a beast.
Thank you this is the one that showed me the most. Almost slow enough to follow I got a watch it 50 times to get it lol. But yes these are it this is what I've been waiting for my whole life lol
Anyone who complains is a silly fool. You can learn tons of information by just watching and listening. Listening to the chord choices , melodies, advice . Thanks.
Guthrie, most of us live in the real world. I along with many others realize the we all have to earn a living. What you provide to us is the desire to learn more about guitar and how it works harmonically. I appreciate all you provide us about the basics of chord structure and melody. This is a close to a free lunch as possible. Heartfelt thanks for all you provide.
Dude shreds! Its funny how he really is limited with theory. This is him saying this, not me. And then plays the most beautiful piece of music. Blows my mind. I watch his vids over and over hopin something sticks! I saw him live couple weeks ago. Hes a bad man.
The part about the ear is so important. I’ve tried to teach some kids to play (I’m your age Guthrie), and it’s like they look at it like a video game. “Well, I put my fingers in the right place at the right time. What else do you want!?” That’s what they seem to think. It’s like a physical exercise. It’s not!!! It’s music. Use your ear kiddos. I love these videos! I’ve learned so much, and I watch them for inspiration for new chord progressions to jam.
25 years ago I was told to play the changes. I learned w/ TAB. Now I'm learning Jazz. This is a gift. Thank you. I wish I had heard it then as well as you explain it. PLAY THE CHANGES !!!!!!!!!!🥾🥾🥾kicking myself🥾🥾
Next time someone says anything negative about your vids ask him what his job is then ask him to come paint your house for free or come cut your lawn or fix your truck for free. Clowns they must be if they don't appreciate free lessons from one of Nashville's finest pickers. Your a legend bro keep it up, thanks from sunny Liverpool.
The first 5 minutes of this video were just excellent. Some beautiful playing and then an honest, heartfelt, balanced and informative response to comments...delivered with good nature and with a smile on your face. Just brilliant and even more reason for anyone watching your videos to become connected and engaged. All that might sound complicated so for the sake of simplicity, it's enough to say just keep being yourself and keep doing what you do! 👍
Become the cord become the note the melody the harmony. Your ears right there's a deepness to that and understanding. So there's a fine line do you want to know more stuff or do you want to have complete control and mastery and on-call what you already know.. do you want complexity or do you want to have simplicity.
Not just a stellar player - also a top quality human! Keep doing what you do - don’t let the sad people get you down. Your fans will always have your back amigo.
Bought the bundle today from TrueFire. Hard to beat for $50 to get both courses, GT. Thank you for all you do, and by the way, I'm one of those that gets it!
Man, I don't come here to how to play stuff, mainly because I can't play like you😂😂 I come here to watch and listen, but it does inspire me to keep playing, because I always feel good about music after I watch one of new videos, and end up grabbing a guitar afterwards.
Dude I get it. Started your TrueFire yesterday 👍And I’m at the point where I’m following everything even though I don’t have it. I’m getting it. Wish some would have been more blunt about what I needed a long time ago. Your talk yesterday is opening it up for me. Thanks appreciate what you do!!
Don’t ever let the comment section get to ya brother! Folks like you and Uncle Larry have made me and a lot of other guys way better players… even after 30+ years. I’ll continue to support you guys in any way I can… with my favorite being seeing some live music.
I dig this channel, love that there's now some real guys showin their stuff. I may be wrong but Guthrie looks like the type who'd destroy a beer too. Gotta love that.
Hi Guthrie. I have been playing guitar for more than 40 years. Have played in several good bands, write music and can make it work. +2 years ago I realized that I really knew very little about music, how things are connected etc. So I started a journey. Have watched endles youtube videos, bought many of the “be great in 1 hour’ish” type of courses. Honestly all crap, and I have been very frustrated. Just could not see the big picture and connect the dots. Heard many people talk about “when it suddenly clicked” it just did not happen to me. BUT your video, right here, it suddently happend. Almost like all the puzzle (or at least some of it) suddendly showed a clear picture. Now I’m on the right track and Im impressed how quickly I progress having found the right track. I know that many out there feel like me, and my clear experience is, that it makes no sense to follow all the “fastmoving wonder-kids” that can bring you to pro level if you fpllow their cource. Follow the real musicians. Thanks Guthrie, you make a difference. Well… actually to make the world a better place and more peacefull. With music and an instrument in our hands there is no space for weapons :-)
I know it’s been a year, but the value you and the guys like Uncle Larry and Brett Papa bring is so huge without any investment other than watching what you out in TH-cam.
As with my ancient Useful Guitar Series Vol 6 video, that drove traffic. But as you know looking at my comments... this guy can play but he's ADHD as hell... lol I took that as a compliment. I sold a lot of videos back then... 1999-2006. Anyway, brother you are showing more than most anybody should expect. But this chord cluster/shape/inversion in and out, is a great lesson I attempt to show students. So this is perfect info bro. Cheers!
Your physicality and right-handedness makes you the perfect Telecaster player. You have total control over that thing. The way your right hand can mute, plus pick and fingerpick. But the real prize is your melodic construction and I love the way you set things up, and then sometimes let them melt away with passing tones and jazzy runs. ...melting away a country twang structure. Like country jazz. Nashville players are the best players, and they are all right handed.
GT = the best! Oh to be close to "BFG" to the point have on your "to-do" list, "I gotta remember to give that book to Gibbons" Keep hustlin' GT it will come back to you - going to get some T's!
I would not let you fix my teeth or do the heart transplant either. But man you do fix my soul with the way you touch the guitar. That is pretty advanced stuff if you ask me!
The way I see it “ personally “ the beginning playing in every video is the intro and then the intro to the lesson follows, again that’s how I interpret it BUT I understand it and I love the content. Keep up the great work buddy 💪🏻
Appreciate you Guthrie - one of the best! Your TH-cam videos are very helpful and much appreciated! Regarding any complaints...my advice - just be a duck (water off your back). Don't let anyone get you down. You are on point and the vast majority of us truly appreciate your time and effort! Best to you!
Your channel is great! When I started playing I learned from watching other players - no instruction from the players - just watched their hands as they played their gig. If they were really generous they would give 5 minutes over a beer after the gig. Watching you is so helpful!
Guthrie, you do put 35 years of experience into these videos, I'm amazed at how much you share. And, thank you! The last vid was the whole business...just real fast! I've been in one of your courses, but these visits really really help. Thanks again!
Hanging with the ladies at the pool! You go slay them Guthrie! get some sun on those chops. But no showing off on the high board. You ain't 15 no more son
G.T., just watching you noodle is worth a forture to me. Trying to cipher what you are doing is far more useful than having someone spoon feed me and change my diapers...
Guthrie is the best guitar teacher on TH-cam! If I could afford to attend the in Nashville Experience I would in a second! I bet it would be epic! Thank you for all you do Mr. Trapp!
Oh man. 1st time posting: I can't believe guys will give you grief for posting so much good information and asking for nothing! I really appreciate hearing what you got to say. And thank you very much!!! And to "those" guys - go find a good teacher in your area and PAY for a few lessons or at least drop some skins in the tip jar! Off to teach a session now. FOR MONEY!!!
Guthrie. Your positivity and generosity sharing your world class experience is the best. I’ve improved my playing majorly just through exploring your “Chord, Arpeggio, Pentatonic, Major scale” approach. It hasn’t cost me a cent, but it’s inspired me to sign up for your lessons. So, what you’re doing works to sell courses, but it also helps a bunch of people out for free.
Hahaha, some people love to complain about free stuff. I spent a few months on your artistworks course and it was well worth it! Highly recommend Guthrie’s paid content for anyone else out there! 😊
Hey Guthrie - long time fan and just want to tell you how grateful I am for sharing your life and experiences with us here. I can't wait for the Buk/Trapp album. Thanks for putting up with the knuckleheads and hanging with us anyway.
I love that you just play something and talk about guitar playing Guthrie. Totally understand - it's not a lesson plan folks - it's an insight into things that you didn't have before. Thanks Guthrie - thank you bud!
When you play an intro jam and I like it then I learn it. If I have to slow it down to half speed I will do that. I think we should remember that this is good and free information for players to get better.
ThankQ GT ! Greg Koch taught me how to be more articulate in my right hand technique just by watching him hawk guitars for Wildwood Guitars. You’ve probably taught most here how to be more articulate in listening for all the triads and inversions more than others. You’re more appreciated than you know ! Cheers from Thailand ! 😎🇺🇸🇹🇭🇺🇸⚓️🎸✅☕️😸🤠😎
Mr. Guthrie, Your videos are great They make me wanna work harder and you are blazing a trail. You just keep swinging!! Your terminology and cord knowledge is staggering. Again thank you but I promise you I’m gonna get it. I’m gonna buy one of those cool black shirts too! Ha! And the very last thin that I want to do is To Say. I’ve been hittin some hard traveling too! Just keep on !!!
Man G I have met many cats Who have shown me a lick here or a riff there that has influenced my approach to these 6 strings over the years bro. Love the way you play, thanks for all the insight. This is why we really love to play this Thang!
I forgot what a great player Guthrie is. I haven't watched in a while, but there are always great nuggets of information in his videos. Like the idea of playing the triads across each set of 3 strings in every position possible. Just a great exercise to hammer the way the fretboard works into your memory.
You do a great job Guthrie! I appreciate all your videos and teaching. You are an inspiration to all of us and keep me motivated to learn new things. The guitar community is growing thanks to you. Keep up the good work!
I think most people here are appreciative of how much free information Guthrie gives us in these videos. It's also completely reasonable and understood these videos are meant to get people interested in the various lessons he offers. My guess is people who have a problem with that don't have to come up with the money every month to put a roof over their heads and keep the lights on.
You are totally right Guthrie. You are DEMONSTRATING what is possible through your paid lessons. With all the free content you put out most people get it. Thanks for everything
Hey guys, thanks so much for all these inspiring comments. It means the world to me. No comment goes unread, I just hate that I can’t respond in depth to everyone personally. Thanks again and keep up the good work!! GT

Hear, hear!!
I'm glad other serious guitarists (pro or am) are beginning to find these
What a kick ass opening riff.
Ignore the idiots. Thank you for all your inspiration. Please don’t stop

What a great memory with SM. His "The Introduction" is still one of my favorite guitar oriented albums, along with Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow.
Guthrie my guy.. don't let the comments section get to you.
I think negative comments stem from that person’s frustrations, I know I get like that because I just need to learn how to learn it.
I have so much to thank you for keep it up for us to learn 1/24 of your skill
I apologize in advance for the length of this comment. Thank you for what you do. It is so appreciated. You are an inspiration. Thank you for pushing us a bit. Most of us need it.

Anyone who complains is a silly fool. You can learn tons of information by just watching and listening. Listening to the chord choices , melodies, advice . Thanks.
Opening little feel of the police. ( if you had chorus on it )
who can complain about all this free guitar teaching by GT. thank you man.
Great honest expose about what a professional musician has to do to make a living!

Wow, thank you for the heartfelt feedback. Means a lot.
I want this to change my guitar life! I'm 60 years old and I still want to learn. Keep this stuff coming.
I signed up for the true fire all Access I highly recommend it
Become the cord become the note the melody the harmony. Your ears right there's a deepness to that and understanding.

6:26 That’s great advice! 👍

Sweet guitar 🎸 it's sounds butternasty 🔥
That intro lick- sweet! Totally stealing that.
Weather easy or hard all free lessons are appreciated. Thanks, and God bless you.

Thank you Guthrie...
Brother…. Thanks for speaking out… however as always thank you for sharing I always learn and get inspired by your videos.
Dude I get it. Started your TrueFire yesterday 👍And I’m at the point where I’m following everything even though I don’t have it. I’m getting it. Wish some would have been more blunt about what I needed a long time ago. Your talk yesterday is opening it up for me. Thanks appreciate what you do!!

Hi Guthrie. I have been playing guitar for more than 40 years. Have played in several good bands, write music and can make it work. +2 years ago I realized that I really knew very little about music, how things are connected etc. So I started a journey. Have watched endles youtube videos, bought many of the “be great in 1 hour’ish” type of courses. Honestly all crap, and I have been very frustrated. Just could not see the big picture and connect the dots. Heard many people talk about “when it suddenly clicked” it just did not happen to me. BUT your video, right here, it suddently happend. Almost like all the puzzle (or at least some of it) suddendly showed a clear picture. Now I’m on the right track and Im impressed how quickly I progress having found the right track. I know that many out there feel like me, and my clear experience is, that it makes no sense to follow all the “fastmoving wonder-kids” that can bring you to pro level if you fpllow their cource. Follow the real musicians. Thanks Guthrie, you make a difference. Well… actually to make the world a better place and more peacefull. With music and an instrument in our hands there is no space for weapons :-)
Thanks for all you share for FREE! Much appreciated, each and every trick, lick and insight. Cheers, Mate!!
The T Shirts are great, you guys made the right move using real Ts and not some Gildan garbage. Nice work, and the art is slick on both of those.
Into 4 years with daily practice learned a lot from GT. Thanks ur videos old and new i always come back and take something with me.
I know it’s been a year, but the value you and the guys like Uncle Larry and Brett Papa bring is so huge without any investment other than watching what you out in TH-cam.
30 years in 20 minutes? Sounds like the name of another great song idea!
As with my ancient Useful Guitar Series Vol 6 video, that drove traffic. But as you know looking at my comments... this guy can play but he's ADHD as hell... lol I took that as a compliment.
I sold a lot of videos back then... 1999-2006.
Anyway, brother you are showing more than most anybody should expect. But this chord cluster/shape/inversion in and out, is a great lesson I attempt to show students.
So this is perfect info bro.
Cheers!
I understand. Keep it going, brother! ✌️
Your physicality and right-handedness makes you the perfect Telecaster player. You have total control over that thing. The way your right hand can mute, plus pick and fingerpick. But the real prize is your melodic construction and I love the way you set things up, and then sometimes let them melt away with passing tones and jazzy runs. ...melting away a country twang structure. Like country jazz. Nashville players are the best players, and they are all right handed.
People who say you are not aexplaining everything should take your courses OR figure out by EAR the beautiful things you play
GT = the best! Oh to be close to "BFG" to the point have on your "to-do" list, "I gotta remember to give that book to Gibbons" Keep hustlin' GT it will come back to you - going to get some T's!
Finding Everything I need just watching & Practicing what you say. Progress Abound.
I would not let you fix my teeth or do the heart transplant either. But man you do fix my soul with the way you touch the guitar. That is pretty advanced stuff if you ask me!
I’m actually wearing my east Nashville guitar club shirt while watching….. stop judging me, I know I’m a fanboy.
Get it, GT! I pre-ordered your TrueFire course. To those that want more structured instruction … do the same!
The way I see it “ personally “ the beginning playing in every video is the intro and then the intro to the lesson follows, again that’s how I interpret it BUT I understand it and I love the content. Keep up the great work buddy 💪🏻
Appreciate you Guthrie - one of the best! Your TH-cam videos are very helpful and much appreciated! Regarding any complaints...my advice - just be a duck (water off your back). Don't let anyone get you down. You are on point and the vast majority of us truly appreciate your time and effort! Best to you!
Some ppl will never get it… These videos are pure gold!!! Thank you Guthrie!
Spot on Guthrie, these are advanced techniques and insights into how to play guitar music 🎶 and all for FREE thank you for your time GT.
Your channel is great! When I started playing I learned from watching other players - no instruction from the players - just watched their hands as they played their gig. If they were really generous they would give 5 minutes over a beer after the gig. Watching you is so helpful!
And Trapp slides into third on the play!!!
Guthrie, you do put 35 years of experience into these videos, I'm amazed at how much you share. And, thank you! The last vid was the whole business...just real fast! I've been in one of your courses, but these visits really really help. Thanks again!
Hanging with the ladies at the pool! You go slay them Guthrie! get some sun on those chops. But no showing off on the high board. You ain't 15 no more son
Love your show!👍👍
Thank you for the video. Some very helpful tips. Very cool shirts !
The T-shirts look great! All the books look great but that Malabo one looks super interesting!
So fresh. What an artist. What an inspiration. What a monster player. Keeps me trying.........
Love your style bro, thanks!
your intros are some of the best guitar music out there! Just keep doing your stuff your way.
Somehow, just hearing you strum any chord my ears just feel something different than anyone else playing. Does anyone else feel this?
G.T., just watching you noodle is worth a forture to me. Trying to cipher what you are doing is far more useful than having someone spoon feed me and change my diapers...
Telecaster sounds the best with those new strings . Thanks .
Appreciate you man! Looking forward to the record.
Yes! Artist works course starts after the weekend for me! Anything to avoid a normal job 😅
Of course.....people have to realize that life is costly.
Thank you for your sharing - talent and acknowledge- .
Guthrie is the best guitar teacher on TH-cam! If I could afford to attend the in Nashville Experience I would in a second! I bet it would be epic! Thank you for all you do Mr. Trapp!
Wow-you are incredible.
Oh man. 1st time posting: I can't believe guys will give you grief for posting so much good information and asking for nothing! I really appreciate hearing what you got to say. And thank you very much!!! And to "those" guys - go find a good teacher in your area and PAY for a few lessons or at least drop some skins in the tip jar! Off to teach a session now. FOR MONEY!!!
Guthrie. Your positivity and generosity sharing your world class experience is the best. I’ve improved my playing majorly just through exploring your “Chord, Arpeggio, Pentatonic, Major scale” approach. It hasn’t cost me a cent, but it’s inspired me to sign up for your lessons.

Another great episode…..loved the show ‘n tell!
Hey Guthrie - long time fan and just want to tell you how grateful I am for sharing your life and experiences with us here. I can't wait for the Buk/Trapp album. Thanks for putting up with the knuckleheads and hanging with us anyway.
Keep pushing!
I love that you just play something and talk about guitar playing Guthrie. Totally understand - it's not a lesson plan folks - it's an insight into things that you didn't have before. Thanks Guthrie - thank you bud!
Looking forward to hearing and seeing you play in the flesh this Monday at the Underdog! 🙂
Great playing dude.
When you play an intro jam and I like it then I learn it. If I have to slow it down to half speed I will do that. I think we should remember that this is good and free information for players to get better.
Thx Guthrie for taking the time to make these videos. It is appreciated.
ThankQ GT ! Greg Koch taught me how to be more articulate in my right hand technique just by watching him hawk guitars for Wildwood Guitars. You’ve probably taught most here how to be more articulate in listening for all the triads and inversions more than others. You’re more appreciated than you know ! Cheers from Thailand ! 😎🇺🇸🇹🇭🇺🇸⚓️🎸✅☕️😸🤠😎
Loving your Truefire course.😊
Mr. Guthrie,
Your videos are great
They make me wanna work harder and you are blazing a trail. You just keep swinging!! Your terminology and cord knowledge is staggering.
Again thank you but I promise you I’m gonna get it. I’m gonna buy one of those cool black shirts too! Ha! And the very last thin that I want to do is To Say. I’ve been hittin some hard traveling too!
Just keep on !!!
Man G I have met many cats Who have shown me a lick here or a riff there that has influenced my approach to these 6 strings over the years bro. Love the way you play, thanks for all the insight. This is why we really love to play this Thang!
Awesome! Thanks man!
You always open up new pathways for me. Thank you
You are the coolest guy on the planet GT! Totally love you man!
I forgot what a great player Guthrie is. I haven't watched in a while, but there are always great nuggets of information in his videos. Like the idea of playing the triads across each set of 3 strings in every position possible. Just a great exercise to hammer the way the fretboard works into your memory.
We understand!!! Thanks for all you do!
Great video man! Thank you!
You do a great job Guthrie! I appreciate all your videos and teaching. You are an inspiration to all of us and keep me motivated to learn new things. The guitar community is growing thanks to you. Keep up the good work!
Hey GT…haters gunna hate. Those that cant do, gripe in comments sections
It’s very cool that a guitar player of your caliber has a guitar hero. And by the way … Billie knows a great player when he hears one .
I think most people here are appreciative of how much free information Guthrie gives us in these videos. It's also completely reasonable and understood these videos are meant to get people interested in the various lessons he offers. My guess is people who have a problem with that don't have to come up with the money every month to put a roof over their heads and keep the lights on.
You are totally right Guthrie.
You are DEMONSTRATING what is possible through your paid lessons. With all the free content you put out most people get it. Thanks for everything
