Guitar Poor Series: Barry the Sailor (Guitar Lesson)

[@jameswagner3685]

I heard a story once about a traveling preacher (evangelist). He said that he had been preaching a revival somewhere in the Carolinas'. When asked how the revival went. He said that he had been preaching hard for a week and he had no one come forward at the end of the week except that little Gramham kid. That little Graham kid was Billy Graham, pastor to many, including Presidents. Hearing your Barry the Sailor story reminded me of the Graham story. Barry influenced you and you have, with your talent, impressed and influenced many people in numerous countries. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge. This is a great video. Maybe I can learn this pattern and teach it to someone one day.

I know there are folks that have issues with KZbin but without it I stood no chance of ever having a personal lesson with My Guitar Hero! Thanks YT and especially to you Doyle!

[@doyledykesmusic]

Yes…KZbin has brought a lot of good things to the world. We Pray for ‘em.

[@GuitarJr56]

Thanks Doyle! Had the chance to say hello about 10 yrs ago at a little music store near Cincy. The power went out and you didn't miss a beat! So glad to hear about your walk with the Lord

[@daleguthormsen8555]

Best clearest presentation I have seen! I am a pilgrim is one of my all time favorites (im 72). im going to sort that out, thank you so much. look forward to more. your string alongs are a blessing . God bless you and your family.

[@philipaklonis7906]

Thank you! You are such a good teacher. You have broken it down into bite size pieces! That works for me. I've tried some books on fingerstle but this somehow has caused me to take a leap forward!

[@AlAl-eh5ng]

God Bless You Again 🙏 ❤️ 🙌 Brother Doyle From Detroit Michigan!

[@ClaytonCoffman]

I'm going to write that chart down and learn this! After years of convincing myself that I couldn't learn that song Dust in the Wind, I found through KZbin just how easy it is to play and now it's natural. This fingerstyle playing is the next step for me and I know I can do it! Your explanation of this is very concise and right on and I know I can learn it! I'm not going to convince myself anymore that I can't learn it. Thank you so much Doyle for explaining this! You're awesome!

[@alisiamondragon3013]

[@bohenson39]

I really want to learn this style of picking. I'm going to start practicing this technique every day. Thank you DD. I appreciate the help learning fingerpicking. I'm at the stage in my life where i want to do more than just rhythm guitar even though I'm 52 years old. God bless you

[@supermarioxs1]

I’m 52 and started fingerpicking about 2 years ago . Stay with it, it’s very rewarding… You will sound great and love it thanks to Doyle and Barry the sailor !!!

Thanks Doyle 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@chuckdavis5300]

I was in GC a week ago, Seattle. I headed for the room where all the good stuff is. Passing the low priced guitars, I heard a young guy sounding quite nice on a cheap guitar. Momentarily, he came in. Told me he had only been playing a year. He asked if I knew anything about Martins. I gave him a quick intro. Pulled out my thumb pick and demonstrated what a thumb pick can do on a D-18. I offered him the D-18, he tried it, and told me he had to get back to work. I left soon myself, and saw him over at the accessories. I told him one more thing, to check out Doyle Dykes on YT. He said "OK...I just want to get some thumb picks before I leave...!"

[@dalecain6357]

Thanks Doyle for your lesson on finger picking!!! I am an 86 year old retired Baptist pastor. I came across some of your videos about 3 years ago and I love to hear you play. I wish I had known about you years ago, I would have had you doing concerts in my church. I started playing the guitar when I was 11 years old and I love guitar music. GOD BLESS!! From Corte Texas.

[@pg402]

Happy St Patricks day, Good man Doyle, love your channel. Greetings from Ireland.

[@Proximityillusions]

Would you look at that! I just took a guitar lesson from Doyle Dykes! Thank you so much! I hope you might come back to this soon and teach the pattern for when the tonic note is on the fourth string. I play in the key of D a whole lot! Thanks again!

[@guitarnotions]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! And let me say it again Thank you!! ❤ This!

[@MaileytheMorkie]

Thanks I am going to learn this!

[@steventwist173]

Thanks Doyle, your a great help and through you a message to my brother Philip, come on Philip read Doyle’s book and get your thumb pick out. Thanks again Doyle.

[@doyledykesmusic]

Tell Philip I said thanks & Thank you Steven!

[@ChadRevels]

Good morning brother! Gonna enjoy this while I’m having my second cup for the day. Ha. Have a great day brother.

[@darrylclark2318]

Nice way of explaining that alternating lick. I often go for it just by ear and it sounds close but technically wrong, which don’t sound as clean as the way you show here!

[@curronhill2744]

Thank you brother!

[@philipaklonis7906]

This is great! I'm learning this bit by bit... 🤔just wondering... Where do we go from here???😊❤ Amazing lesson and good teaching.🙂🎸🎶🎶🎸

[@markclark8191]

Great lesson--very helpful. This will upgrade my boom-chick. I made myself a cup of tea and I'm ordering a GunSmoke coffee mug.

[@brianharris8385]

Thanks for this lesson, I am playing it over and over again. Finally starting to get it. What pattern do you use for a 4 string chord like a D chord?

[@jonrittmann]

thanks for a great lesson!

[@paolospadaro]

Eii Grazie!!!! Sei il migliore!!!!! ❤

[@dutchwilson8642]

Thank you!

[@ramjayanthravichandran]

Could you teach us Gitarre 2000??

[@RT-gv6us]

I realize this is only and instructional video, but Oh my goodness, that Martin has a rich and fat bottom end. I love that sound.

[@jimbos.online]

Doyle, My comments will often repeat what God'voice has said through yours and your guitar. I'm still in need of prayer for my family and the emotional struggles and depression. Hear His voice, obeying, being still, and acting. Your Ricky Saggs story is now part of me hearing God. With the emphasis on "acting". So many times this is where I fail. I ask God right now to strengthen me in this weakness. Please keep praying for me and my family 👪 of three. Prayers please, thank you. Off the subject of me. Could you explain what a Wound third is and it's " benefits". And when I buy them will my guitar sound like you? Lol 😆 🤣 I know the answer to that already. But it's good to laugh.
