if i become a master guitarist and win 10 grammys i will mention you in my acceptance speech before my parents and john mayer. youre a big inspiration🙏🤝

[@ridgefernando519]

Haha me too bro

[@beatnik155]

When I learned this (50 years ago! Watching Bert Jansch) I knew I could just about play the guitar good enough for someone listening to maybe enjoy it. I haven’t improved massively since then. But, hey ! I can always play some blues.

[@SouthMeckStunna]

The fact that Clapton plays this while singing will boggle my mind forever

[@akemdam9824]

Bru just learn it so well that you can play it without thinking ur next moves , im trying to do that 🤤

[@justmebeingme8930]

@@akemdam9824 can you play it so wel alreayd? (i just started )

[@ZekeBM]

En realidad, Clapton no lo toca así.

[@fatttony9156]

But why ? It’s a easy song with basic chords.

[@emilelesaffre]

@@fatttony9156And you don’t have to fingerpick it.

[@limewhite4593]

Always wanted to play it like you since the first time i heard it in your top 10 acoustic songs that made you learn guitar, thanks!

[@wertyoo7892]

I too like Lime and White!

[@zackfrost4339]

My favorite guitar teacher teaching one of my favorite blues tune? Absolutely...

[@wilko871]

I would urge anyone who's struggling with this to persevere, as it sounds and looks a whole lot more complicated than it is, and is so so much fun to play. If you can play it slow, you can play it fast! I've been following the other channel for years, and will be following this one, as I mainly play acoustic fingerstyle. If you read this Paul, thank you so much for all of the truly amazing teaching work over the years. I would recommend the intermediate course for those wanting to take things to the next level too. It was a fantastic way to spend the first UK lockdown, was worth every penny, and has given me a skill for life. Great beard as always too!

[@EmJayPee]

I was getting frustrated and almost gave up, then I saw this comment and it inspired me to keep trying a little bit more. One day later and I’ve got the first two bits! I am so happy. Thanks for the random encouragement, random stranger! ;)

[@wilko871]

@@EmJayPee Great! So glad this comment helped. Apply the motivation you had to learn this to other songs and techniques you previously thought outside of your comfort zone. You'll be amazed at how quickly things start coming together. Patience, perseverance, and practice. Then practice some more!

[@philliparmstrong776]

Been trying to play fingerstyle for 44yrs...i enjoy the sound so much i will never stop trying...nothing stirs the spirit more!

[@eusmas3633]

@@philliparmstrong776 Yes , me too Phillip, but I can't get that slapping right! I will... someday. ;-)

[@jimadama6695]

Best guitar teacher around. I've been playing 17 years. I'll admit I'm a good guitarist, I fucking should be after all this time, but, I've been lazy in my time. You have reminded why I have an unquenchable love for guitar. I'm playing more than ever. Keep being a legend. 💜
