Best wishes to you buddy

[@filmbuff8393]

Great tips! I definitely need to learn my scales. I’m almost three weeks into playing and still using your “Horse With No Name” video for that song. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@sonnywheels2373]

Always a joy watching your videos. Thank you.

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Thanks 🎸🎸

[@outtolunch7437]

Please do tutorials for these, they’re some of my favorite songs. Amos Moses- Jerry Reed Take It Easy- Eagles Hippie Radio- Eric Church Also I’ve been watching your tutorials for 2 months, and they’re all great. I learned my first song from you. Easiest tutorials on KZbin!

[@JustinTaylor1098]

Top tips, I love the major , minor, 7 chord idea. I will force myself to tune the axe everyday as it’s something I neglect. I always wondered what the difference between a lick and a riff was. I find it hard to play a song from start to finish, 3 minutes is a long time playing! Cheers LJ

[@Teh3aZ]

No 3 got me! Metallica - Enter Sandman System of a Down - Chop Suey Megadeth - Holy Wars Omg Lee now I want to learn these songs, I know how to play Enter Sandman only :D

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

I've already done lessons on them 😉

Yow this is the best guitar teacher I ever encountered Thank You So Much!!

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Thanks dude

[@davewave36]

Wow, that saying when the student is ready the teacher appears. KZbin dropped this in my feed today just as I'm getting frustrated by not having a coherent practice routine. Thank-you very much.

[@ppccxx]

You are a good guitar instructor I love all your tutorial videos

[@GeAsita]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Picked up the guitar after years and I'm trying to learn on my own, but I wasn't sure what to focus on and how my sessions had to be now I will repeat these 5 steps every day, I'll pick 3 songs (already have everlong!) and I'll just practice! Thank you for your dedication, it was an amazing guide

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

You’re welcome! Keep it up 👍 🎸

[@botzboy2079]

Thx for that have a good Easter weekend Oww yeah I have one of those tuners there great

[@Zain-xg4kn]

Tqvm sir

[@coolHandLuke830]

This is going to help me get better. I honestly don't like doing my scales and have neglected to do them but I have learned how to play open chords thanks to you. What would you suggest when doing scales? Also, what would you suggest for an easy way to learn picking. I'm trying to practice Star Wars and suck at picking.

[@lordlord661]

Thanx sir

[@art2win998]

nice material thantk!

[@jeffpierce1842]

I really appreciate your videos. What were your 3 go to songs in the beginning for you?

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

That was so long ago I really can't remember.. maybe The Clash, Nirvana, GnR and definitely Hotel California

[@OZHKAR1]

Great great vídeo, for a long time I refused to learn the basics now that I've learned some chords now I want to learn all this, I depend on tuner and all these tips are gonna be very useful, thanks a lot for all the great content Lee!

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Great going dude thanks😎🎸

[@kimimara250]

I would be really really glad if you did lesson on Sonata Arcticas Shy, I've been looking for tutorial or something, but i just couldn't find any. Anyway thank you very much for what you doing, most of the songs i can play i learned from your videos!

[@markmcmanus8484]

Mate, can you please do a video on Jack Johnson - I got you ( fingerstyle )

[@mariamccormick8590]

Could you show how to play "Camp Town Races" by chance there aren't many videos on how to play it and none of them are that good at teaching how to play it

[@fezze0830]

Thank you! I find many of your videos extremely helpful. Do you think you could teach the riff for CCR Run through the Jungle?

[@duakhan5920]

Which one of the taylor guitars are you using, bro? Let me know.

[@PulseBox]

nice

[@ea-m6472]

Thx dude it helped

[@hernanhenriquez6778]

CAN you do CHANGE from BLIND MELON? .... PLEASE and a couple more from blind melon if u have the time??

[@koko-gj5ez]

please do a lesson on barre chord hammerons ive been struggling with them for weeks

[@danieloakes7692]

Are there more chord tricks like the d,c,g ? I found that very helpful .

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

I'm glad you find the video helpful. By learning chords and changing between them should help you move on to pretty much learning any song. You just need to put the hours into playing and all will become clear, you will then realise actually how simple it is. All the best.

[@bassguitarmalta]

What mic do you use to record these videos? Both voice and guitar sound pretty good!

[@UlanKG]

Greetings from Kyrgyzstan !

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Hello !!!

[@ThomasW280]

Thank you so much. I just have one question. I’m still a beginner, and I don’t know whether I should look at my picking or at the frets. (I have a video of my playing Eye of the Tiger if you want to watch me play)

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Only ever look at one hand at a time don't try and look at both! I always say look at the left to begin with and feel with the right. It's just lack of practice keep going! 😎👍

[@ThomasW280]

Thanks so much. Your videos are awesome and I have learned several of my favorite songs that I thought were going to be way too hard.

[@matthewkennedy7283]

Can you do some smashing pumpkins stuff off of gish or siamese dream

[@michaelcloherty5352]

I tune my guitar by pressing the A on the E string it should vibrate the A string and so on down the strings you now have a tuned guitar

[@dmaikibujin]

I thought the standard B major chord was a barre chord? I looked through some sites to try and figure out which one you are using. It looks like you are doing index finger - 2nd Fret A string and ring finger - 4th fret D and G, which they are calling a Bsus4, is that right?

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

If the third was flattened one then it would be a B sus 4 but I'm actually playing a major. I'm not playing it as a bar chord my fingers are on 2nd fret A, 4th fret D G B. I'm not playing the low or high E

[@dmaikibujin]

@@leejohnblackmoremusic Ah cool, thanks for that! And keep up the good work, you keep us playing! 😁

[@judibaldock7378]

Oh my goodness .. how many times am I told this ...will start

[@just_anne8756]

My dad always told me to do exactly these, especially the last one lol

[@hasanazimov4332]

Hi. Can I use a metronome when I practicing alternate picking?

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Of course!

[@itayfishler1242]

Plz make a toturial for basket case. I really want to know it

[@davidjackson7974]

Lee when you say play a whole song are you meaning play the track and try to play along to the with the song?

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Pick a song you love, play the chords from start to finish, for example Knocking on Heaven's Door has an intro, verse, chorus and Verse, double chorus etc it lasts about 3 minutes of non-stop playing. It's very good to play along with the track but try and do it without as well😎🎸

[@rickcontreras59]

I want to take lessons from you

[@edwardpuddy4793]

I don't mean to disk you. I can tell if I am in tune by picking e to e down the line. And I can tell the string that is out by doing that. I am not very good at running by ear so I use my little tuner to get it right on. I will try your e thing next time and see if it helps or not.

[@nagarforestinfant]

How did you play that B chord?

[@vermansyahhabib8096]

Thank you for your teaching and if i may request metallica - low man's lyric😅.. Because it's a very very good song..Thank you,, greetings from indonesia🇮🇩🇮🇩

[@bigbadpanda8095]

AzriAhmad like a right handed guitar ? If so there are left handed guitars

[@aazri29]

@@bigbadpanda8095 yeah i play the right handed guitar. Because its cheap. But i think i do great with the normal guitar

It's called boom boom boom by John Lee Hooker, I've done a tutorial on it just search my channel👍🎸

[@61cheezil]

You can't be serious thinking this is for beginners??!!! Wish I could manage any of this stuff & I been trying to play for about 3 months! Would love to be able to play a song but that's not a beginner doing a song, I've heard it can take a year to learn a song!

True i play always the same songs when someone ask me🤣

Agree

[@jefferyfaulk]

No one ever tells us how lite or heavy to press on the strings, can you?

[@leejohnblackmoremusic]

Well, you should be able to work it out because if you don't press hard enough then the sound won't ring out and if you press too hard your finger will hurt 😎👌🎸
