  • I like your style of teaching. For me the perfect practise of something i learned a long time ago. I had to figure the stuff out by myself, so its very cool to understand the bigger sense. Music is like maths.. everything has a rule or a sense… i mean everything except for the blue note… Or am i wrong? Ok i appreciate your channel and you have a new subscriber. 😉

  • Sean, you're probably not looking at this anymore, but just in case . . .in this video, you were using a pick. What about soloing when fingerpicking? What do you do with your right hand? Do you do the usual thing you do for fingerpicking in general where thumb covers strings 4-6, and index/middle/ring fingers each gets a string? Do you do everything with your thumb as if it was a pick? What's your right-hand technique? Thanks.

  • You were basically playing one of Van 'The Man' Morrisons hits. Very enjoyable even at practice demo 'noodling mode'.
    You're The Man too.

  • Hey thank you, Sean. I’m a singer then a rhythm guitarist and love to put simple, beautiful lead melodies when the song calls for lead guitar… You are helping me know the fretboard better in a lead kind of way, so thank you for that. ✊????✨

  • Hello Sean, I really enjoy your videos and, although off topic, I was hoping that you might be able to answer this question ?

    Should a singer use the term 'register' (or 'range') rather than 'key' ie: 'I can't sing in that key" when speaking about their vocal range ? I've heard many singers over the years, both in person and in videos, say that they "… can't sing in this or that 'key" or '''thats not in my key, I need to sing it in a lower/higher key" etc.'. So, the question is: Isn't it that yes, they can sing in the 'key' a ('key(s) is either major or minor etc). The key of C for instance can be played up and down the 88 key piano (middle C = C4), beginning in many different places (in different registers). And again, a 'key' only specifies how many sharps or flats, or in a Maj or min key (generally speaking).

    Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated Sean and I'm sure very interesting to your subscribers too !!
