[@prajwalgowda3046]

You're the best man. Thanks for explaining chords in such details....

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you prajwal - I really appreciate your feedback and happy to have you here with us! Shane

[@petermatthew123]

I like your lessons, esp this one, which combines picking with strumming! :)

[@GuitarAtWork]

Excellent - thanks Peter - Cheers! Shane

[@WhoDatAficionado]

I am trying this and slowly showing improvement

[@jimrodriguez6398]

Shane thanks for this lesson great teacher

[@davidtaylar8870]

I originally learned on a nylon string guitar (classical style) and that finger picking was really tough as a beginner that was used to picking everything. Great lesson!

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you David - really glad you enjoyed it - have fun with it! Shane

[@rubbabubba6489]

One of the first songs I learned on guitar way back when.Great tune.

[@AaronPlowman]

Have to ask, did you used to perform. You're such a solid guitarist, and I imagine you played with a band, and we're likely quite good? Your personality is also top-notch!! Thanks for the many tunes you've taught me. Your lessons are always fantastic, and you're clearly a great guy who also has a great sense of humor that I can pick up in your subtleties. Rock on Shane!!

[@GuitarAtWork]

Hey, thank you Aaron - that’s hugely encouraging. Yes I was fortunate enough to travel all over the planet as a guitar player doing session work. Was a lot of fun, but I’ve been home for a few years now and quite enjoying that too. I always have fun and I’m really glad you’re enjoying my best to you! cheers Shane

[@AaronPlowman]

@GuitarAtWork Thanks! My intuition is often right, and I knew you must've been. I'm so happy to hear you had all those amazing years living the dream and again enjoy your personality as much as your lesson, which is an added plus. Great 2 learn Great music from Great people is what me say!

[@GuitarAtWork]

@@AaronPlowman thanks again Aaron - let’s have fun with it! Shane

[@AaronPlowman]

@GuitarAtWork agreed, my guitar journey is geared up 4 a bright future. I also enjoy spreading my joy to those who helped pave that road to playing guitar 🎸, thanks Shane and may you have a joyous and wonderful day

[@CAP21]

I absolutely love your song choices. Always liked this catchy tune.

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you Cap! Really appreciate that - cheers! Shane

[@alkrause2183]

how about the lead guitar on “Turn the Page” by Bob Seeger? It’s way trickier than it first sounds. It will fool you if you’re not careful.

[@westernrider100]

Doing the Animals version? How about transcribing the organ solo for guitar and going from chord to solo and back to a chord?

[@GuitarAtWork]

Great idea - maybe I'll do that in another video. Cheers, Shane

[@westernrider100]

@@GuitarAtWork I suspect that others would be interested in this also. Thanks for giving this your consideration.

[@jimmievik]

Hey brotha amazing work as usual, could teach "down on the corner" by CCR

[@kevinarmstrong2592]

Thanks for the video. I love the way you teach. I've been trying to get this song right for weeks and I was very close. The picking pattern on the d and f were tripping me up. You helped a lot.

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you Kevin - really great to hear that - I hope you had fun with it! Cheers, Shane

[@michaelstetzer3144]

Very nice.

[@1waychild]

Yay!! I know how to play a new song. Right on! Thanks Shane. My fat fingers do make some dead notes on the C and F chords when I pick it.....But I can strum the hell out of it though!! Lol

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thanks Way Child - glad you had fun with it. Those dead spots will go away - just keep at it! Shane

[@Blizite]

Great Lesson,Shane! Can you do a vid on "My Girl" by the Temptations? Thanks😊

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you Robert - much appreciated! I will add that song to the list for sure. Cheers! Shane

[@GrahamKenworthy]

Sorry Shane but I can't find any song sheets anywhere for House of the rising sun.

[@GuitarAtWork]

Hi Graham - sorry for any trouble you’ve had locating that song. The sheets are freely downloadable at guitaratwork.ca. Cheers Shane.

[@GrahamKenworthy]

F​ound it, it's in something called Dropbox,is that correct?and it's everley brothers version, I suppose it's just the same.Thanks again, sorry to be a bother.

[@byronandlouhilley3339]

you are the man! thanks for the time and effort!

[@GuitarAtWork]

Thank you Byron and Lou - really appreciate it - I hope you continue to enjoy the videos! Shane

[@toddweiler227]

Shane Love your pace and enthusiasm of your tutorials. Great stuff. But those two reflective circles over our glasses drive me nuts. Is that the rising sun? 😂

[@GuitarAtWork]

Hi Todd - ha! Really glad you enjoyed - I had the light in the wrong place for that last round of videos - I shot six in the same day and didn't know my glasses were reflecting like that - drives me crazy too but I didn't feel it was worth redoing them all. Argh! Will be better next time! Shane

[@wellynsellers8618]

Are you still going to do the song Jonh Barleycorn by Stevie Winwood

[@GuitarAtWork]

Hi Wellyn - it's on the list! Shane

[@wellynsellers8618]
