Damn! Building it “brick by brick” made this take minutes to learn vs hours via tab. Getting comfy with the melody first made all the difference. Went from thumbing the melody to playing it note for note in minutes. Very cool thanks!
Not a blues guy. Will this system work with any song or any music genre?
Great lesson, thank you very much!
I would like to know if you can fingerpick any song can you come up with your own fingerpicking pattern for that if it's funk R&B. Soul Jazz Rock or heavy metal do you have to come up with your own fingerpicking pattern for that particular song
Thanks John great information I need to work hard on this Cheers from Ireland !! Brian
I just really struggle to split my brain between the two parts. I'm trying to learn Wasteland Baby by hozier, neither part is particularly hard it's just putting them together I struggle with
I am stuck on playing it together bruh like i cant move my thumb in a different rhythm than my other fingers
I am at the beginning… but i have flat picked for years… what I struggle with apart from tommy emmanuel pieces lol, is when to play the melody i.e. on the one two three four or on the ands as in 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 4 AND… but your vids are helping me through it, so thanks a bunch!
Unbelievably valuable lesson, I can't believe this is free. Thanks for making it!
How to find base notes when I slide through high notes
I can finally prove all pianist wrong
Such a calm and relaxing teacher. I just ordered a metronome so I can practice the bass part. Fingerpicking has always eluded me, but now I feel it'll be easy to learn with practice!
thank you brother. its been so difficult for me to fuse those two and after seeking help and hard action i came across this with a receptive mind. thank you.
Excellent lesson, Thankyou sir
Bill Paxton teaching guitar . cool
Thank you for the lesson. I'm just getting back into guitar and learned some cool new techniques like John Mayer's signature thumb slap with the index finger striking a string simultaneously. However, when trying to learn Wick Game by Chris Isaac I've hit a total wall with syncing the steady thumb while playing melodies. Thanks for the encouragement, I was beginning to think that some people just don't have the em or ear for it.
I heeded this to play Bouree by Bach in E minir
Bro, that chord approach really makes everything click. Thanks a lot 🙂
blablablablablablablablablablablablaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I'm at the 'this is god damn voodoo' stage!
