I learned from using my ear, watching youtube videos, watching other people play and practicing a LOT! I've been playing for about 4 years now!

[@rondy702]

I am quite a bit older than you and have been playing for A VERY long time and after you playing the first few notes of the chords I can see you already have a great deal of knowledge and respect for the music. A lot of young players are just trying to play the leads of a song and you are teaching that the full song arrangement is what's important. Good job and best of luck to you!

[@JUNOtheArtist]

+rondy702 Aw thanks so much Rondy, that really means a lot! I certainly do have loads of respect for music, all the greats that came before us and the work it takes to constantly get better everyday! I really appreciate your comment :)

[@kjchicago1]

Ashlee, you're terrific-How long have you played guitar and can you play a Gibson B. B. King Lucille or a Gibson Les Paul or a Gibson LPJ or Gibson SGJ or a Gibson ES-335 or a Gibson ES-345 or a Gibson ES-355?

[@MrSwanni77]

Ms. Juno, I am a 50 something beginner at guitar, I just wanted to tell you I love your style of teaching, it has been eye opening for me. Thank you you so much for the time you take helping others.

[@jmodmon2]

MrSwanni77 , a gifted teacher, to be sure!

[@mizzobjectiveone3819]

Well, MrSwanni77, it's been 2 years since you've written this comment. How are you doing with your guitar studies? I decided to return to school and took guitar for a semester.

[@drewfitz7861]

MrSwanni77 me too i started playing at 50, that was 3 years ago. This young lady is talented and has a knack for instructions. I certainly like the fact that she also puts great effort into her speech like she was writing a term paper with her explication. It is sometimes discouraging for me when ANYONE, destroys the English language while instructing. This is my humble opinion. I know things have changed since my elementary school days. However, I believe that presentation has much to do with respect and ability. This young lady has both my respect and lots of ability.

[@jonislow]

@@drewfitz7861 well, how has your three yrs of playing been? I just turned 50 and started playing 3 yrs ago myself. I'm loving it but sure wished I had started earlier!

Long time beginner here. First let me say thank you for sharing your time and talent with the rest of us here. Secondly I will be viewing more of your videos because I like the way you explain things very easy to understand.

[@JUNOtheArtist]

Why thank you so very much :)

[@lanerrickharris8604]

Hey there Im a drummer of 30yrs. I wanted to learn guitar to better understand theory and also to be able to play at the barbershop in between clients. This was the first video that opened my understanding to playing guitar. Keep doing these videos. I tell everybody that you're a big help to my education. On break at my shows I grab my guitarist axe and I actually know what Im doing. Thanks for being a blessing you have appreciation from Flint.

[@debmurray2734]

Wow, I can hear what a talent you have just in this little tutorial. I am an old soul but a beginner guitar player and now a new subscriber to your channel. This video was very helpful to know how to apply these necessary R&B chords I have been practicing to the many r&b tunes that I love and want to play. Thank you again, looking forward to working more content on your channel! 😎

[@vincentm614]

Hi Im a bass player and its obvious youre teaching your students how the chords fit into the major scale. Its nice to see someone teaching that in an easy manner that does not confuse a newer student. those chord sequences are the key to learning lots of diffrent songs.

Learned this song ages ago I just find her talking voice very comforting.

[@georgerrumph4989]

Ms Juno, much respect for your talent. GOD BLESS. I've been playing guitar for some years for my church as a teenager and then LIFE took over and went to the service. I always thought of picking it back up but now after 30 years, I'm returning and it's complex because I learned by ear. Now, I'm researching and learning as much as I can. But when I heard your style of playing, it MOVED me because those are the melody I want to transpose and as the BIBLE says: "Make a joyful noise unto ALL the LORD". I will be following you as much as you will have me. Again, GREAT JOB in your approach of teaching and may GOD FOREVER BLESS YOU!!!

[@JUNOtheArtist]

Thank you George, I wish you much success in your playing :)

[@georgerrumph4989]

@@JUNOtheArtist I have a request, my mother found this old rare gospel record my the Violinaires: Children are you Ready and wants to sing it at her church anniversary on Dec 23. I would like to know how I go about getting the guitar line or chords to play to that song?

I love the way you teach and this the style of guitar I want to play. I'm a keyboard player this is so simple thanks!

Uplifting as well as a deep lesson in soul and rnb. Glad to see that soul is alive and well and to see young people continue the tradition and carry on the legacy of prince,Otis Redding, Marvin gate, Etta James, etc

Hi Ashlee. What guitar would you recommend for playing r&b and reggae ( telecaster/stratocaster). I've read TONS of forums and I'm still lost. lol. Thanks for your help!

YesKimberlyAnne Telecaster all the way!

[@MichaelCrutcher]

Model of guitar makes no difference. People think of stratocasters and telecasters for funk, but often James Brown's guitar players used hollowbody jazz guitars.

[@SlyRyFry]

It's all preference they do have different tones cause of pickup type most the time
