You Sir are a True Inspiring Person to anyone who has ever touched a guitar.

We met at Jim's guitar shop in Torrance and talked about Bill Doggett! Good to see ya man! Maybe we'll jam sometime. "Honky Tonk".

[@leighsayers2628]

What a lovely man ..awesome personality and so fun ..

[@gregh2930]

Thank you for being a light Kirk ! The 'Gentle Giant'. You are a difference maker.

[@RjBenjamin353]

Kirk is one amazingly talented, humble, generous, beautiful human beings. Thank you so much sir. You inspire us to keep great music going.

[@marvshinkleman6821]

I'm kinda blown away that you're giving this away and not asking for anything in return. I just learned more in about 5 mins. than I have in a long time. Thank you for your time and generosity. It's also cool to see how much depth is behind your playing; that's good to know for anyone who plays guitar because we're all still learning. Peace.

I play blues, soul and reggae 99% of the time and it's amazing how much theory a person can know without realizing they know it.

[@fred_dias]

Kirk is a guiitar supreme!

[@ericvandewetering7117]

Like watching Bob Ross paint! I am truly mesmerized and fascinated by watching you play the guitar and talk about bar chords and double stops. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@chusamusic1409]

His free playing matches perfectly with the quick reflection (captured in the moment) from a whiskey glass.

[@chusamusic1409]

We started as a thrash metal heavy metal band but his playing captivates us

[@Zefi8125]

Great lesson, but what really caught my attention was the way you speak. Gently with a big smile and shining eyes. We need more of that kindness in the world.

[@MikeMichaels1987]

Massive thank you Kirk. As a 54 year old guy returning to guitar (electric) for the first time since 1992, your video has opened a very big door for me.

[@jonboy4601]

Only recently discovered this guy and must say he always puts a smile on my face. His playing at norms rare guitars are awesome

[@johndelaurence664]

I love the way you teach and the underlying joy and love of music that is so evident❤😊

I used to watch Kirk Fletcher at Cafe Boogaloo in Hermosa Beach. What a great lesson, thanks!

thanku for inspiring us sir. You are my favorite blues player🙏🙏🙏

[@rodneykroetsch2924]

Thanks! The best lesson I have on a style of playing that has eluded me but really speaks to inner groove 😊

[@twillie205]

Thanks. I'm a blues dad learning a new hobby that won't send me to the doctor, so lessons like this go a long way. Your joyful personality makes it all that better.

[@CarlWinter-oy8uf]

Love those double stop licks in the beginning --using the C chord in different places ---now I,m learning !Thankyou!

[@YoungMasterpiece]

I am really glad I found you, sir. Love how you communicate the guitar.

[@mayito714]

I've been playing for 30 years and this was a great lesson. Thank You.

[@dannypembroke2372]

Every now and again, God gets it so right. So so perfectly right. You literally vaporise any angst and frustration I have from a shitty day etc, just by playing and talking to us.

[@JammerhakenTV]

I get that, Kirk is such a sweet person, I met I'm at Normans Rare Guitars and he was soooo kind and humble

[@PNNYRFACE]

I believe his name is Kirk

[@Dontlikeithere]

What a beautiful comment

[@StokesMusicStudiosOnline]

Years ago I used to jam with a Kirk Fletcher jam track. Later I heard that same jam on the intro to the Larry Elder show. It validated my love for both these guys! I'm pretty sure they're friends.

[@thobraa]

Thanks for a great lesson. Every time Kirk says 'you know' he gets this great infectious smile. This man sending good vibes.

[@zeezeetube]

As a kid, I took guitar lessons from an accordion player. Those early music books had a lot of bass runs included in the “Old Suzanna” kind of songs. I didn’t really take to it at the time. Looking back, I did myself a great disservice. Once you hear them, you hear the snare. Then you hear the chords and melody line. Finally, the licks. By salivating over the flashy licks, I stunted my progress by years. At this old age, I’m obsessed by the connective tissues. So much so that I now listen to accordion players and watch their left (bass) hand. Life has a way of coming around full circle. Those bass hooks are magical. Thanks for a wonderful lesson Kirk.

[@leadbellyk2311]

Your magic is that you live and breath the guitar. The little riffs just come so naturally. But I love hearing you talk through this, it really is inspirational. Thanks Kirk.

[@bluesbuster2000]

Every time I see you I begin to smile. Thank you for share your blues with us. Lern so many from your playing and lessons. Love your music. Stay save.

[@Eva.p31]

This is an awakening to me. I got more out of 5 min of your vid than from 2 years of experimenting. The way you explain it created that link I was missing to understand blending chords within finger picking. Thanks!

[@fuaccount2527]

Miss you sooo much ! You have always been my favorite 💓! This is very exciting and fantastic! Mahalo!!!!!

[@blues61]

Hey Kirk, thank you for this excellent bit of guitar wisdom. I could listen to you talk about this stuff all day - your warmth and humanity comes through and makes learning such a pleasure.

[@Gtraxx1]

Thank you sir! I am absolutely obsessed with your playing dude.. so inspiring

[@davidlegalley1161]

Thank you for sharing these musically beautiful sounding pointers 👍🏽👍🏼❗

One of the most easy going, likeable people on here with immense talent. If I can end up with just an ounce of what he has I will be delighted. Great lesson Kirk.

[@stevedriver1476]

What a great teacher, i started learning at 35 in 1994,, it was complicated and i gave up.. still got all them guitars and watching this is a real inspiration. . yeh larry carlton room 335 a great teacher........ steve in Australia.

[@pyannaguy4361]

PAY DIRT! The eagle just landed, Kirk! I've watched and learned some things in this realm from the great Cornell's site(s) and others....BUT...Something about your relaxed delivery and the way you just gradually built so much on seemingly so little - REALLY clicked for me! It's kept this old dabbler up past bedtime, but for a good reason! GREAT lesson, Bro! Thank you! Just subscribed.. 👍

The nicest smile I've ever seen & greatest and simplest tutorial on youtube! Thank you sir and I love the 66 Gibson and interestingly enough, there were 66 comments & I was also born in 66 before I responded!:)

[@BobEstremera]

This should be your next Truefire course. Major and Minor blues and funk with double stops. I'm buying!

[@kkjhn41]

This is how music stays alive, by passing on the lessons you've learned just as these things were shared with you by players you've come to know. There's never been a better time than today with technology enabling the ability to reach so many people and there's never been better teachers than those like yourself who care enough about the music to want to take the time to share not just the mechanics of music making but the joy of how music enriches and gives meaning to life. Just saying thank you seems like not enough, but it will have to do until something better comes along. Thank you.

[@Lucassaci]

What a great player and teacher as well! Kirk, you not only give us the knowledge, you also inspires us! Thx a lot

Thank You. When Kirk talks I listen. He is a Great Guitar player and a great guy, obviously at peace with hmself. How I would love to spend a day with him learning anything he cares to teach me. Ive been playing a very long time and he reminds me I have so much to learn. Again, Thank You Kirk.

[@handlethisyoutube]

This is the best kind of lesson because it makes you want to play! Mission accomplished.

[@AllanDee]

Kirk, You are an absolute gem. Your teaching style is what I've been looking for after years of noodling my way around the Internet looking for courses or some other magic bullet so I can learn at a pace that keeps me engaged and wanting more. You're giving so much knowledge away and putting so much love into the guitar community.. we just can't thank you enough for your kindness. I only wish I would have found you years ago! ♥♥♥

[@KennelGuyTries]

This video just highlights the need to know theory. It makes riff writing and song writing so much easier when you know what will fit in any given situation. When I started playing 30 years ago, I had no idea what keys were or what chords fit where. It was pretty embarrassing when other guitarists would call out a key and I'd have to have them tell me what chords to play. I took lessons and theory really opened up the fret board for me.

[@sonnydaze6071]

Thanks Kirk for sharing your talents. Your awesome brother!!!!

[@BrunoB-s3e]

Hi kirk, thanks you...Thank you for this lesson. I love your way of playing and learning.. it's cool 👍🙏🎸

one of the goats with a heart of gold Mr.Kirk Fletcher!!

[@WayneMemphisMojo]

Thanks man, I could watch your fingers float across the fretboard all dang day.

[@paulwatson8809]

Simple, inspiring and totally useful. I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of this...thanks for taking the time.

[@cryptoskywalker6000]

Thanks, Kirk. Good stuff.

[@Chuck-Bob]

That's so useful, Mr. Fletcher. That its really the fills and triads that flesh out the song and give it character.

[@SoJoh86]

You Sir are speaking the language of music.. I subbed immiedatly.. Also there is something very comforting about the Way you explain it.. Like you’re also saying dont worry, you’ll get it just keep playing.. So thank you for this lesson.. I Can’t wait to get home to my guitar now 👍✌️

[@neildavidvandenbergh5422]

Beautiful, and silky smooth! Sounds great as always, Kirk! Great lesson too. Thank you very much! 🙏 🙌

[@PopsKustojo]

Pretty amazing the way you break it down for us lesser folks, ‘appreciate you.

[@artform1364]

Thank you so much. That's exactly what I've been trying to learn how to do, boil down big chords to their two and 3 note essential elements. And your presentation is so chill it's a pleasure to watch and learn. Thanks again.

[@robhead22]

Im a huge fan of yours Mr Fletcher! Thank you! And, I love your true fire courses!! Thats how i found your music 😎 Thank you!

[@billsolo4123]

Ditto. Thanks VERY much for taking the time, slowing it all down and explaining the process behind the genius. You're breathing life into my playing (when surgery has made all playing painful.) New to me stuff!

Hi Kirk, I love your playing man. I first saw you on Brett Papa's channel. Let's go Kirk.

[@joerobertson795]

Stumbled on and got smarter. Love the approach, this how to teach someone to play and make music without getting discouraged by the technical stuff. The notions under the lesson are foundational and provide relative experience to understand theory later, but make music now. Absolutely wonderful! -New Subscriber

La semplicità ma anche la genialità dopo tanti anni di chitarra 🎸 scopro delle cose semplici ma di grande effetto che mi faranno crescere grazie kirk

[@theohiograssmen]

Fantastic lesson ❤ love double stops, as well as your style and approach to teaching. You really build upon simple concepts to open up the fret board. I'm 37 and sometimes it amazes me going from sitting in my room for half a decade without being able to tune my guitar, to now having this level of expertise at the fingertips.

[@erikpaterson1404]

Amazing tutorial. I've just recently learned that those doubles stops, dyads sound so good over the chords you're playing.

[@DJArrigo]

Lots of mileage here! That’s amazing how you explain it. We all learn connections on the fretboard as we lean songs and improvise soloing. It’s cool we can apply the double stops to any key from just moving it up or down anywhere. Another thing that help me a lot is thinking in the relative minor pentatonic from its major. So many slidey barred embellishments ideas can add a lot to a song or solo. Kirk thank you 🙏 you inspire me so much!!!!

[@johnryadsahib4351]

Kirk you’re such an inspiration. Following your style from 🇨🇦

[@lylewallace9022]

Kirk . Such a nice lesson. I started the same way. But never got into triads. Double stops. Love the sliding 6th thanks always
