Colter Wall The Devil Wears A Suit And Tie Guitar Lesson, Chords, and Tutorial

[@kyleguzzardo]

This was a long term guitar goal of mine. This tutorial helped me learn it in one sitting. Being able to play and being able to teach are not one and the same, however, you've got both. Great video, keep it up.

[@TimGuitarLessons]

Thanks so much for the positive feedback Kyle! I’m really glad the lesson helped you figure this song out!

[@greenwood7734]

@@TimGuitarLessons Hey Tim, I was just wonderin, what is the name of the guitar you’re using in this video? Thanks again for the great work.

[@saving0sable]

I stopped playing for years, and was never disciplined about practice...or finishing anything...and now I'm a mom of a special needs kid and I've picked my guitar back up. This tutorial has been my refuge and medicine for the last week---and I'm getting the hang of the song (bonus!). Thank you for a great lesson!!

[@TimGuitarLessons]

I'm glad that the lesson has helped you out! Thanks for letting me know!

[@lydiab6063]

The song is just beautiful. Thanks for posting the tutorial.

This should have way more likes and comments than it does. Great tutorial and spot on technique and sound.

[@TimGuitarLessons]

Thanks so much Mark!

[@gianb3952]

1 year ago ago this song was a distant dream/goal. Now with 1 extra year of practice and most importantly, 17 excellent minutes of a lesson, I'm able to jam along. Thanks a lot man, this was seriously an amazing explanation and rendition :)

[@TimGuitarLessons]

I’m so glad that the lesson helped, congrats on getting it under your fingers!

[@ben92282]

Dude this song is like my Holy Grail. It’s a little beyond me for now but hot damn this is a great, thorough lesson

[@TimGuitarLessons]

Thanks Ben!

[@Chief.BigKnees]

How'd you go?

[@loganschofield5909]

Can you play it now? I thought it was beyond me but I’m honestly getting the hang of it. Still haven’t learned the whole thing though. My method is to learn one piece and get good at it and slowly add more so it’s not overwhelming

[@Juuqe]

@@loganschofield5909 always a great way to do it, remember that spending 20 minutes every day is better than 140 mins in one sitting once a week. consistency is key, and sleep consolidates memory, so you'll often find the next day a lot of what you were learning will feel a little more natural even when you haven't spent any time in between on the guitar.

[@loganschofield5909]

@@Juuqe very true. I’ve played on and off for about 7 years now and still barely have any songs down. Just a bunch of chords, some scales, and that’s about it. Just recently got into my guitar again and trying to stay consistent and take my progression seriously. I couldn’t agree with you more about consistency. That is the key and is why I’m progressing so much more now compared to all this time I’ve randomly picked it up and messed around for hours and then just set it back down for weeks

[@apekatt9990]

This tutorial is very very good. Slow but steady, Easy to digest and very well broken down. you also have a very soothing voice, this is great stuff man! We’re blessed to Get this top tier lesson for free, Thank you! 🙏

[@MeInTheFuture8]

Been trying to broaden my playing and I'm starting with Colter Wall's style and your channel has been an amazing help! Thanks!!

[@TimGuitarLessons]

I’m glad it’s been helping you!

[@ashleyking2761]

Same here, my good friend sent me a video of Colter playing this song a few months ago, I have been in a delta blues/country/blue grass rabbit hole ever since.. enjoying every minute of the process

[@cosmiccomedy7394]

Same here I've played guitar for 10 years but never got into finger picking until a few weeks ago when I discovered Colter wall. I've really fell in love with that style and I love the control you have especially of the dynamics.

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

6:42 Repeating the walkdown, this was where I was getting lost before

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

7:06 The roll

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

7:47 walkdown to am

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

8:10 Note: I do think it's much easier to get muscle memory for the Travis picking style that Colter uses in most of his songs if you stick to playing 654 strings with thumb, 3 with index, 2 with middle, and 1 with ring finger. It's easier to build up dexterity in your ring finger in this style than to be having to move your hand around throughout the song

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

9:06 picking pattern

[@conorwhite-sullivan1743]

9:25 example -- It's 543 5(2) 3(2)2 -- where () are where the chord isn't fingered yet.

[@robertleon9929]

Hi Tim, I just recently picked up the guitar after barley touching it fir 20 years. I used to play electric, (heavy metal) now that I'm a bit older, and settled down with a family my taste in music has become much milder. I have never finger picked before, and I am slowly learning with your tutorial if the devil wears a suit and tie. I absolutely love your style, and tutorials. I watched you fishing video, and stocking stuffer videos last night, and you seem like a pretty good guy. I was hoping you might post a tutorial of a pretty great guitarist named Shakey Graves, and the song I would like to learn is called Late July. Regardless I will continue to enjoy your tutorials, as I progress. Thanks again Tim. Bobby

[@ashleyking2761]

Exactly the same here my friend.. picked the electric guitar back up after nearly 15 years, hammering heavy metal and even hard rock just wasn't as enjoyable.. a good friend sent me a video of colter playing black top, then that lead to discovering tyler and Billy strings. I've been in a rabbit hole of country/delta/bluegrass ever since. Loving every minute of the process too.. glad you decided to pick the guitar back up! Also forgot how much it hurt to build up thoughs finger tips to concrete.. 🧐

[@peytonbellis2256]

Thanks king you got me back into playing

[@TimGuitarLessons]

I'm glad you're playing again!

[@Dudeitsricc]

I don’t know how to read music and don’t know chord names so visuals like this really help me. I’m like 90% finished learning the whole thing and there’s no way I’d have been able to without this video, so thank you so much! The hardest song I’ve attempted before this was everlong by foo fighters lol so this is quite the jump, but you made it so easy! Definitely really appreciate people like you who do these tutorials.

[@Dudeitsricc]

Also I was able to learn it in like 2 days cause of this tutorial, and I do NOT have a lot of experience so very well done for those who don’t necessarily know what they’re doing

Hey whats the picking pattern you do for the B7 chord @11:30

[@pip9877]

Love your videos. Can you explain what you're doing between the e minor and b 7 right before the walk down? I've watched it many times but I can't seem to pin point what you're doing.

[@jaimage5234]

Man I’ve had such a hard time with the c chord cause you breezed over it like we already knew what we were doing, it had my picking messed up for 3 days!!! I finally slowed it way down while you were playing it and figured it out

[@RGZ223]

Because a video like this is for someone who already knows how to play basic chords, if you don’t even know the simplest of chord shapes you have no business whatsoever trying to learn this song and I don’t mean that in a rude way I’m telling you for your own good , that’s what causes people to quit playing cause they get to frustrated because they try to get to advanced to fast

[@jaimage5234]

@@RGZ223 I’ve been play for 8 years, I know what a c chord is. I just had the picking order wrong for it

[@mememe6445]

I’m learning this song but the ending rift you are playing it different then what you teach and it’s very confusing

[@LuciousMidnite]

So watch how he plays it instead of how he teaches it I’ve learned plenty of songs just by watching the fingers of the player and listening to the notes

[@VariousNonsense]

What are you doing with your right hand near the end of the intro when you switch from A to Em then B7? Aside from that part which I am having trouble with, your tutorial has helped me a lot thank you.

[@mynameislance1985]

This tutorial is awesome, but I am confused at 10:00 where you say Em, A, Em....but never hit any of the strings fingered in the Em. Is there a reason to finger the Em at all vs leaving everything open?

[@TimGuitarLessons]

It’s good to fret the chord correctly for purposes of habit, and also in case your picking hand gets a little loose and you hit more of the strings, you want for the notes to be “good ones” that can fill the space rather than those random open strings

You’re an amazing teacher,Tim. Thank you! At the 11 minute mark when you describe the b7, is there a plucking pattern to this chord before you go back to E and finish with the last riff of the intro? At the 9.45 mark you play it pretty slow but I can’t tell what’s happening with the b7 plucking wise.
