Hey man, I just want to say thank you. 3 years ago I bought an acoustic and stopped playing after a while, I got bored of learning songs and felt that I could not progress. Then after a while I tried electric guitar and came across your videos, now I am progressing faster than ever! For some reason your videos keep me glued to the screen, interested to a degree I've never felt before. Thank you for providing theory and making it so easy to understand. You don't teach us songs, you teach us music.

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Thank you so much for the kind words. It really means so much to me. It's the whole reason I make these videos! 🙏

Hello, I live in Switzerland and only understand a little English.. but of all the videos on KZbin I think you explain how to play the guitar so easily in just a few minutes.. thank you very much.. I love your videos

[@Alex_U]

For longer slides, look at the desired fret when sliding, not the start off fret. Really improves accuracy

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Great tip!

[@kylemoyo2224]

really liked the parts of the video where you got more intermediate/advanced or generally more nuanced with it. would love to get more videos specifically emphasizing practice and performance tips for upper intermediate players to take our technique and feel to the next level. what i'm really asking for is a phrasing video lol... breaking down more of those little motifs and movements with bends, double stops, ghost notes etc. that i definitely didn't slow down and copy haha

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Hahaha, I definitely need to do a video specifically on phrasing. I'll get working on something. Just wanna make sure I do it justice 😅

An amazing lesson. You’ll get to 100k subs before the end of this year. Truly the vets teacher when it comes to guitar lessons.

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Thank you so much!! 🙌

[@international_perspective]

Ah jeez, your videos are sublime Andrew. I'm currently watching your videos in the suggested order playlist you've made and they are THE most easy to follow explanations I've ever heard. Your channel seems guaranteed to blow up! Thanks for the content and looking forward to viewing these videos many, many times to improve my musical theory and guitar playing. Cheers, from Australia!

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad the videos are working for you :)

[@basedecho2731]

I’m so glad I found your channel man it’s an absolute gem! You explain techniques so clearly, the how and why plus things to try. Thank you!

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

I appreciate that! I'm happy to help ☺

[@yahudahbenisrael3774]

Thank you sir! I really love your material and teaching style. Do you have any lessons on integrating arpeggios? Thanks!

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

You're welcome! No lessons on arpeggios yet. But in the future for sure!

[@JoeRockstar]

Love the lesson, but, how did hammer on's and pull off's miss the cut lol?

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Haha, yeah that woulda been a good one to include 😅

[@slipperedlobster]

Wow...that helped me. Thanks. Right to the point, and very articulate. Nice explanation and demonstration of each technique. So I liked and subscribed right away.

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

I appreciate that! I'm glad you found it helpful.

Always learn from your lessons👍 Thanks!!!!

My pleasure!

[@OneJamesH]

A content suggestion. You could make a video on each one of these. Bonus if you would add some practice ideas.

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Good idea!

My biggest issue with speed is that I lose my sense of rhythm. It's like when a skateboarder is in the air, I have no clue of where I am going to land and how much time I have until I land. Guys that can squeeze a lot of notes and know exactly how it will fit into the overall rhythm "box" is what impresses me the most and I'm not sure how to train for it.

[@jahvonfrancis3875]

Bending and sliding come naturally for me, but i don't know how to incorporate them into short licks, short licks are my kryptonite, did you do a lesson on undersranding licks if not, can you🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Can do!

[@greggary7217]

Thanks!

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

Thank YOU!

what is that water ripple like reverb

[@andrewclarkeguitar]

It's spring reverb. Some amps have it built in, but you can also get it from a pedal. I'm using a Universal Audio Golden Reverberator to get that sound.
