I've waited for 20 plus years for this lesson. Everyone seems to think that new guitarists want to rip up the fretboard and overlook good rhythm guitar, more please👏👏👏👏

[@user-ly3nw1um6e]

I've been a 'bedroom' guitarist for many years, your idiot proof method of teaching is a breath of fresh air. Keep it up.

This is the perfect beginner blue lesson. I started with the blues about thee years ago, wish I’d had this lesson then. Well explained Rob, cheers buddy

“This is a guitar lesson on KZbin, but just by listening to the tone, I can tell that you are the lead guitarist & vocalist of the idol group Buster. I’m happy to see you’re doing well and still loving music. From Japan.”

Great job! I recently stumbled upon your channel and I must say, your teaching style is unique and effective. Unlike many others, you simplify the process and make it easy to understand. I particularly appreciate the way you adjust the angle of the guitar to give a clear view of what's going on. Keep up the amazing work and I have no doubt that you will soon become the top KZbinr for guitar teaching. Thank you for the valuable lessons!

Sorry your team lost, but if we get Blues lessons like this after a loss, well, I hope they never win again! Great Blues lesson! Thank you! (Just kidding about your team - hope they have great success) :-)

[@eduardkornejev7910]

Rob,could you make your more advanced tutorial which you were playing at the end

[@fennahrob6934]

I will if I get enough interest. Ive just put a picking one up too.

[@karlpresley]

Hi Rob, thanks for the great vid's 👍 Would love to learn the Chuck Berry style, is this how Chuck Berry played, using the 12 bar blues? Thanks Rob appreciated!

[@paulmurray4679]

Oh Rob, yet another great lesson, thank you. I need help, others may find this interesting, what KEY are you playing this in ? I've guessed E as you play E A B, so, if I use a capo as you've explained, does it follow that I could play these same shapes/fingers in (say) G....capo at 4th or C....capo at 9th.......I ask only, as I try to learn, I go to a "session" at local pub, where everyone joins in, but nearly everyone uses a different KEY thank you for your lessons. Sunnyvenice, Hebden Bridge

[@fennahrob6934]

Hi Paul, I’m playing an E A and B. If you wanted to play the same ‘shapes’ but in G, for example, you capo at fret 3 (cause your root note, the 6th string, is now playing a G. 👍🏻😎

[@paulmurray4679]

Nice arrangement. Great example for beginners. Thanks.

Did you ever do Ill see you in my dreams . What about some more Paul Simon Bookends was great . Bring on the blues .

[@fennahrob6934]

I did ‘I’ll see you in my dreams’ as a uke tutorial. The Joe Brown version. It’s on the site with all the charts etc. 👍🏻

[@jamesperry278]

@@fennahrob6934 Yeh i had a look thruogh your page . I first heard the song on the concert for George it is now a big favourite . how hard is it to learn Uke. Joe brown is brilliant bye the way Slade magic must be an age thing .

[@jamesperry278]

You ever put any Buster songs on.

Please can you cover Country Boy by Aaron Lewis.

It is a thousand times harder to actually do this than you make it look. This is the most frustrating instrument I've ever tried to learn to play, and I've learned a dozen instruments over the years. Nothing has taken this long to learn, and I still can't play much of anything on it. Not correctly at any rate. I'm about to throw it out a damn window, to be perfectly honest.

[@fennahrob6934]

Do it slowly; break it down into individual bits and then join them together. You’ll get it. 👍🏻

[@LMacNeill]

Why is palm muting so damn difficult?! I simply cannot get my strumming hand to bend that way AND still be able to reach the strings with the pick. It sounds HORRID if I play it without palm muting.
