Oh yeah! Time for a new tutorial 👍 Enjoy!

[@crashpilot5542]

First! I love watching all of your videos, i really like the builds. Have you chosen the winner yet for the yamaha and the strat?

[@marrettgyers8498]

Yes it is.

[@marrettgyers8498]

Where can I buy this acoustic?

[@marrettgyers8498]

And also I heard that esp sells some great guitars can you review 1?

[@zayneunderwood1488]

That was awesome my brother thank you very much I really learned something from that.....!!!! 😎👍

[@lodivt]

I bought a Pacifica because of your videos. Love your work, bro!

[@ricandes]

Thanks Darrell, being self taught I have used all of those chords at one time or another, I just don't always remember what they are called. A good refresher for me.

[@rayschoch5882]

Many years of playing - mostly by ear - these dots & lines are the only notations that make sense to me…

[@catxafire]

Tablatures yep me too

[@SteveResor]

Thanks for showing and explaining how all those chords fit together so well Darrell ! You gave me some ideas on changing up a few chords and hearing how it comes together !

[@MaartenAnna]

Just put my first guitar together (Strat Diy kit, with a rattlecan blue snakeskin burst). All I need to do now is learn how to play! These will come in handy! Thanks Darrell!

[@scottcapodice4066]

Happy to see the Furch again. I bought one after your review of it...same model. It's wonderful!

[@blake7908]

Sweet, pickin up my guitar now!

[@sporkcunt8100]

Same

[@FluxSynth]

Your guitar has a wonderful tone.

[@michallasko9213]

Czech guitar, one of the best :)

[@SsWargazmSs]

Yeah Furch makes very high end guitars that you can customize to your liking. They're super nice for sure.

[@FurchGuitarsOfficial]

Thank you guys! 🙏

[@thejkyle]

This is great, I’m teaching my little brother to play and I’m going to show him some of your videos, you explain things so well.

[@Gottaloveguitars427]

The Furch is so nice...that’s one of your nicest guitars!

[@FurchGuitarsOfficial]

Thank you Greg 💛

[@wadya]

Great lesson Darrell! Cheers from Indonesia.

[@bradmoe9201]

Really good stuff man. Very informative!

[@Madchris8828]

I love these teaching videos. I've been watching a bunch of yours from a year or two ago. Very useful information, especially for a beginner like me.

[@jasong546]

Totally love this, I know I can still learn a lot, and get great ideas from you that I either never learned or have not thought about in a long time. Thanks very much.

[@samlelowitch]

Darrell, thank you. This is really practical information!

[@camilosandovalurzua365]

Very interesting Darrell, thank you so much! Keep making more videos!! I never miss them, greetings from Chile!

[@mburtondavis]

I like your instructional videos you should do more like this.

[@audiophileman7047]

Very cool video, Darrell! Variations on a theme is always a great jumping off point from the major chords. Thank you! 👍👍👍

[@allisonholmesmusic97]

Awesome. I picked up the guitar a couple of years ago after a 20 year layoff. I had pretty much forgotten everything I used to know. I’ve taken a few Zoom lessons, but other than that I just feel around the fretboard looking for things that sound good. Thank you for giving me new chords to my arsenal

[@jemrock1441]

Very good chord my friend!! Thank you for sharing. 🎸

[@chriscooper9290]

Great video. Would love more of this!

[@faktdiz3897]

Thank you Darrell, you really helped me! I was always scared about chords, but no longer... 😅

[@marc6611]

Awesome, great to see this kinda content along with the rest of the stuff you post. Thanks for sharing!!

[@terryjones2012]

[@ArturBrzozowski444]

[@TheOdieD3]

[@jmangi6221]

Darrell you da man. Best teacher,best channel,my absolute favorite guy on the tube. Thank you bro.😉🎸🎶🎼🎵🎧🔊

[@carmengamon2752]

Ah, nostalgia, I remember when I first learned those D chords when I was beginning

[@moveond4500]

Its funny how i never really learned them but play some of them so many times cuz they sounded cool ,thanks for quick lesson !

[@jimmyjames2022]

First learned SUS4 back when Beatles were still releasing songs. It's great fun for a novice to discover these easy, great sounding, open chords for strumming, then for fingerpicking as we advance.

[@nickienative5668]

OHHH J'aime le son de ces accords :-) Yes i love the sounds of those accords :-) Merci

[@malcolmsansom5026]

Great I'm gonna make these my next thing to learn starting today cheers 👍

[@jonwill]

Well presented; thank you for sharing.

[@miguelangelperez8113]

Thanks for the lesson!

[@saltycat662]

I love the way the A chords sound.

[@courtney5796]

This one vid is my lesson for the next month! thanks man

[@smh8632]

your videos are awesome keep it up! I want to ask you a question... can you make a video where you try the es-335 kit? that will be fantastic😄

[@lightbulb1952]

Great stuff! Good to know for intros and endings. Nice sounding guitar! Who built it?

[@electroKrunch]

Great thoughts on 3rds, 5ths & 7ths! All very melodic...

[@myewgul]

What about chords as inversions? They also offer color but they're definitely worth knowing. Nice video Darrell!

[@patrickwrenn3021]

Thanks for another informative video

[@andrewmuelleranantababaji8073]

Wow thanks I needed that!!!

[@danrobinet1785]

Awesome lesson!

[@rjrajat77]

Came here from the finger pickin pattern in DADGAD video, now that's a change of background in 4 years 🖤🔥🔥

[@paj1015]

A very famous/popular danish song has an intro that starts with an E and Esus4. It's called "Hvalen Hvalborg", which means "The whale called Hvalborg".

[@chrisdunn1155]

Great to see you playing a Furch, no sweeter sound!

[@lovesongsound1]

the tone reminds my off I cant stop lovin you VH version Makes me want to listen to it now Thanks Darrell

[@Jahbeatsofficial]

Great tutorial 👍🏾

[@honzahosek4566]

wow, a Furch acoustic guitar! greetings from the Czech Republic, the country of Furch

[@rogerledoux4741]

Great as always,

[@RobertMurphy-wm3ge]

Nicely done

[@JasminaFun]

Thanks, ...i'm reminded of Eddie Van Halen "...just keep playing ". I just have to pick up the guitar more and have fun too.

[@JohnZeeX]

What’s the brand and model of that guitar? I’ve seen you play it many times and it always sounds great.

[@mburtondavis]

Not one of your guitars is ever in the same place. Heart of gold stars out with the E7.

[@ajitclinton7479]

Love the tutuorial please do a part 2 for g c b and f

[@lightyagamixpatatochipps6761]

i recently found out abt here, your content is so helpful

[@miguelpanta]

thats my dream guitar

[@rhymunar]

Bro dis is so helpful for song writers

[@bmann792]

Careful just because you can add the first few whenever you want , you can’t always use a dom7 chord in a song with 4 measures of E, it depends on the key you’re in.

[@Chipymichupy]

Can you review the Boss Katana? There are other people with reviews but I really love the way you review gear.

[@wostosgarage9866]

Awesome Thank you 👍🏼

[@mrredritehand]

Thanks Darrell you're so boss

[@Motoroil555]

What's up darrel, nice vid

[@moxy9896]

Nice Touch

[@fanofjazz2]

luv it.....thanks man.

[@DeltaLimaBR]

muito bom! por favor faz um video sobre acordes na guitarra elétrica!

[@Motoroil555]

That guktar sounds awesome

[@MaxMoon65]

yo pisswasser,you should hear his guitar.

[@Motoroil555]

@@MaxMoon65 what guitar

[@autansh26]

Please make more videos like this...

[@ianrose5505]

Fantastic thank you

[@WPD.razor41]

hey Darrel, what do you think of Takamine G series guitars. I just bought a GN93CE.

[@WattchomanBrandySavage]

Hopefully I'll be able to practice these chords on a modified blue Squier Strat ;)

[@Nowo78]

Sorry to nitpick here and I understand your motivation to do it, but I really wouldn't call the Asus2 an "Aadd9" or the Dsus2 a "Dadd9". They simply aren't the same chords, and this will probably confuse beginners more than it helps. A beautiful Aadd9 could be played e.g. as x02420 (even simpler as x0242x with the index finger barring fret 2), or the Dadd9 as x54230 (or just xx4230 as Dadd9/F#).

[@jaysonmcwhite8089]

That's why this chord progressions sounds familiar. The song Happy Xmas by John Lennon uses this same chord progression

[@suffering5203]

Hey Darrell pls make a video about Schecter Banshee

[@BaresEatBeats]

Furch guitars are incredible.

[@FurchGuitarsOfficial]

Thank you! 😊

[@aarnavsrivastava8041]

I'm a learner. I started learning, like, 2-3 days ago. I'm using my cousin's a little old acoustic guitar. I do want to buy a new one in the future. So, I needed some recommendations for a guitar (they should not be very expensive) and the kit/accesories I would need to play one. Also, should I go for an acoustic first or an electric. I like the electric guitar sound a lot but also like the sound of the acoustic since it's used in a lot of Pop genre songs, especially, Ed Sheeran's playlists. Please guide me Guitar Community. I'd be really grateful. :)

[@williamb4652]

Ooh I like that E add 9

[@shfla7293]

8:36 All I Want Is Nothing by Frank iero and the cellabration came up to my mind 😂

[@MyStarPeopleExperiences]

Wonderful.

[@dougdorrer4622]

Can you review the new Fender Accoustasonic line specifically Jazzmaster?

[@EduSG-edu1971]

When you did the A7m, I was waiting for the D! But it didn't came!

[@Shrihan708]

SWEET.

[@colinricgmailcom]

I've seen guitars with multi scale and I've seen guitars with fanned frets... So I'm gonna design one with and "H" note in it!😁

[@colinjackson3662]

Just use the German naming convention where Bflat is called B and B is called H 🤔😂😂

[@colinricgmailcom]

@@colinjackson3662 That's not going to work... I toured Germany and stayed in a few B&B's and they sounded awful.

[@nesnahmik]

small steps will get you a heavenly result :-)

[@UItimateGuitarCovers]

Cheers x

[@timothymathew1540]

I bought 30 guitars because of your videos 😆

[@Futs101]

Is the Asus 2 the same if played on the 5th fret?

[@timgavigan1230]

Maybe I should go buy a guitar

[@deathbell7448]

Welp Time to add this to my collection of guitar videos

[@mickeykeymoaw]

There's something about Darrell..!

[@JaniceLalla]

Nice

[@Hicky33]

Would be cool if you made a short music by building a nice progression out of those voicings at the end. I guess that's how some YTers got past the million subs: ideas on how to make music.

[@mtmgaming5294]

Can u do a aria gutair review

[@OpiumX9]

What guitar are you using?

[@whiskeymike8010]

Says "Furch" in the sound whole. Not sure which model. Electric acoustic I assume.
