You just make people want to learn... It is 00:00 in my country now and if it wasn't for the neighbours i was going to get my guitar and try to recreate what you did.... Thanks a lot.. You are the best teacher!!!!!

[@suheldeeps]

I agree with the downhill part. I had a tough time getting the barre chords chords correct, they always kind sounded fuzzy. I had even given up playing for a month. Then again I started , in a month I playing them effortlessly. Patience is always rewarded. Anyways great lesson as always. Thanks.

[@wishuonlyknew595]

I was listening to Instinct Blues by the White Stripes precisely when Justin hit the "commonly used notes" around one minute and the riff for instinct blues is precisely what he plays. Serendipity or fate?! Great lesson as always Justin.

[@luisaguilar7997]

Wishu OnlyKnew more the fact that its just 12 notes in different pitches and combinations, along each players style, its amazing how simple melodies change so much by doing something as basic as focusing on a different not in a single shape

[@scottwillott1]

Wish i had a computer when i first started out. Kids these days are so lucky 2 have someone like u teaching them all this stuff 4 free. As 4 me, I get 2 learn all the stuff I should have learned in the first place. Thanks mate.

[@uk.cockney.5455]

Out of all the guitar tuition channels you definitely explain and show the best action of teaching.... Fact... Blinding tuition... Thanks Justin.... Top man....

[@QCCTL]

Justin, thanks so much for all your videos. You've definitely become my go-to for learning songs, riffs and technique.

[@bajawkamare]

I've followed the whole series and have learned an enormous amount! I do appreciate the studied simplicity of your pedagogical approach. You are a star! Thanks a million and I'm off to order your CD. Cheers

[@larwhelan]

Haven't watched a video of yours in a long time but they were all i watched when i first learned to play guitar, still the best teacher on the web for me :)

[@nugs187]

Love your lessons Justin! I have picked up a few skills from watching your vids and appreciate it.

[@BlackAngusYoung]

Really great new series you're doing, man! You've taught me a lot about the blues.

[@Nembrutalz]

Best teacher on KZbin. Thank you for everything.

[@Inariuz]

You give me a great deal of motivation! I just started learning blues riffs by your video :) I hope to hear more tips and coaching from you Justin!

[@dougstine1757]

Great stuff! Keep it coming.

[@jackindobox]

He is a wise guitar teacher.... :) i love these videos.

[@downhill240]

Wow! I always learn something when I watch your videos. I want to wish you, your family and friends all a healthy, happy and prosperous new year!!

[@TheGorehound101]

Hot digidy dawg! Justin, love your teaching,,,another great lesson......

[@xBloodHunterx1]

Very nice, learned a lot more on guitar with your lessons than before

[@jeffmason]

Thanks Justin for all your lessons, have now got my daughter learning from your beginners course...Happy New Year to you!

[@KeKeKedhvsc]

@montify it's from one of the earlier vids, but basically you bar the top three strings, strum them, hammer on on the next fret on the 3rd string, bar the next fret and strum, then let go back to the bar + fret and strum again. Just look for the other video or go to the forum or something.

[@Tommyr]

As always ANOTHER brilliant lesson! Happy New year Justin! And to all watching!

[@MaximuS121000]

Another great lesson Justin .Thanks.

[@JPGarland]

From someone else's video there was a reference to using passing notes along the lines of what you have with a twist. Doing, say, an A7 arpeggio, you include (as you do) the minor 3rd (C) en route (sliding, hammering, or otherwise) to the major 3rd (C#) and you do the same from the 6th (F#) to the Dom7 (G). The twist is that when you descend, you play those passing notes in the same way. So it'd be A-C-C#-E-F#-G-A-F#-G-E-C-C#-A. Then the same with D7 and E7. It works well as a bass line too.

[@vracan]

@hilo2hell First of all you need to like/love the blues FIRST!...second then you need to FEEL it!...and then you can start thinking of learning it on the guitar!!!!...remember it's NOT how much scales/notes you know, it's what you do with what you already know!!!! Good luck...

[@johnskerlec9663]

Nice ideas Justin.

[@tolerateu]

You make the blues sound so easy, I've only been playing for a couple of weeks, but my friends are amazed at the sounds I can make just from your videos. Is there a story behind your broken arrow on your arm?

[@garystotts7824]

As always a GREAT lesson..Thanks...

[@DigitallyProcessed]

Superlike!!! Another masterpiece!!!

[@poyntz55]

Justin, you are great. Should have your own TV show. At least there'll be something decent to watch instead of the other junk they put on. Thanks

[@estabrook51]

nice video helps alot

[@bigjimmyrocker]

Justin is genius

[@ptolon]

at 09:05, yep A7 chord (barr across all strings 5th fret with index, ring on 7th fret A string, middle on 6th fret G string. strum once, then D chord (first finger5th fret A string, barr across 7th frets of DGB strings with ring finger, strum once, then another A7 chord but ... barr across all strings at 5th fret with index, ring finger goes on 7th fret A string... strumm and immediately hammer your middle finger onto 6th fret G string just after strumming to complete the chord.

[@bramblechops]

great lessons , well done Justin,i;m hooked.

[@jack002tuber]

Great stuff. Thanks, Justin!

[@80007144]

Thanks so much. Im a lead guitatist and this helped me so much ;)

[@drtrewenstein]

Exactly what I needed. Amazing work dude

[@frankzy89version2]

you are the guitar master!!

[@Hyce777]

@montify I think what he did was play an A7, then a D, then another A7, but he hammered on the C# (6th fret G string) just after playing the A7. I think. Not sure of the exact timing but that's generally what he's doing.

[@zuxxx1247]

@montify it is just quick change between A7 (6th string root) and D (5th string root) where he hammer again on A7 at the end

[@verandahs01]

thanks mate

[@justinho92]

i learnt a LOT from your videos thank you :). Happy new year!

[@81ghale]

Frickin awesome dude! Thanks for this!!

[@Shellni93]

[@mindblowerSKS]

[@TheDeeganto]

Awesome. Great tutorial.

[@charliemunecas6656]

[@heyitsblaw6211]

John Mayer, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and BB King

[@youigccfssxx]

Could you do a lesson series on classic blues riffs like Born Under A Bad Sign and Mannish Boy? Great lessons btw 👌🏻

[@ziuzidion]

SRV ... so excited uses this riff too :D

[@ShelterVAGUES]

Vince Taylor - Shakin' All Over & The 5,6,7,8s - Woo Hoo

[@madgeniusmusic]

I bet you could get a lot of Stevie Ray Vaughan riffs out of this lesson

[@FranticChannel121]

Godd.. You make it look easy!

[@deepchoy]

thank you so much Justin!!!!

[@the0ne4nd0nlyz1nk]

@montify i think he plays a regular A7 (575655) chord, then 555755 and after that he hammers on the A7 chord again (555555 hammer on 575655)

[@bza069]

amen brother

[@youngandbluesy]

@Tmal10 Did ya realize that Justin puts up all these lessons for free? Money has to come in somehow !

[@jcheever37]

@serclfs no problem man. we all know that learning by ear is a major pain especially on some more complicated stuff. but yea its pretty stratight forward .

[@Tmal10]

@baadshepherd Wow, wow, wow. Calm down. I appreciate Justin's videos as much as anybody and I wasn't complaining directly to anyone I simply at that moment was stuck for time and was in two minds about watching the lesson then and there anyway, so the ad just annoyed me, Im not growling about someone making a buck, but being forced to watch an advertisment is one of my pet peeves whether it supports what your watching or not, you shouldn't have to, but that's a whole other story, happy new year!

[@Tommyr]

I heard "I feel fine" in that one riff at about 3:17!

[@icespeckledhens]

Interesting lesson, thanks

[@WellOfSadness]

Great Justin! Thank you! :)

[@BobNjiru]

@jack002tuber tooo good man justin u da best thanks

[@wannabeviralstar]

@montify look up his previous video with 7th barre chords, thats where those are from.

[@baadshepherd]

@Tmal10 I apologize. Happy new year to you as well.

[@ionutbuzatu4609]

Very good!

[@9erTomm]

very nice, thanks :D

[@camfre4k]

thanks for helping out :)

[@jcheever37]

@serclfs Dm F C Dm just tinker with the arrpeggiation and struming til it sounds good. but on the first Dm hammer and pull off the G note on the 1st string the pull the d note on the b string

[@pwazify]

Thanks Justin, this video answered a lot of questions.Though i have been following all your classes. Im guessing ive taken 90% of all your classes and though it takes 45 to 70 minutes here to watch each you tube class ( thanks to buffering ) Im glad i watched every one of it. Do you think its possible for you to go in depth on your Jazz and Folk classes to as you have in your Blues.That would be awesome ( In lack of a Better word.) Thank you once again for what you do.

[@heatmanable]

good lesson

[@vidSpac]

3rd!

[@apexresidual22]

[@Malphite216]

[@2013danrazor2015danrazor]

[@Usksider]

Nice one Justin - how many of these riffs did you use in the guise of Brian Jones I wonder? ;-)

[@AdamPL7]

Hello, mr. Beard :)

[@user-dk3wl4ry1j]

GOOD

[@hilo2hell]

@Irockursocksye ah thank you. Hopefully I'll get an idea how blues work. =)

[@samuelwnovak]

@montify the most common 7 chord shape

[@fluid_film]

get to know sonny boy williamson, he is fantastic!

[@shamamta]

Amateur question here, is there a reason to press your fingers down with your left hand each time a note is played even it one note is played twice in a row? Should this be something that is practiced?

[@hsabarp]

here's a few ideas for learning to play guitarDecide precisely why you want to learn guitarTry to play guitar everydayDecide which method works for you best.(I discovered these and why they work from Guitar guru method website )

[@Everyonesrich]

How many more times- Led Zeppelin kinda sounds like in the beginning!

[@hilo2hell]

Stupid question but how do I get myself into playing blues? I've never listened to blues and I started the blues lead guitar series last year but I just can't feel it. I need a good start. I mean.. any easy blues artist that you recommend listening to get the feeling of blues? Thanks. =)

[@montify8344]

what the hellis 09:05 Can Anybody Explain me? Sounds so fantastic

[@AngelMartinez-qs3cf]

what is your right hand doing? Are you just using the pick and/or are you using the other fingers for the other strings.

[@Malphite216]

you can hear it, he's only using a pick

[@MyBottletree]

What said his comment?

[@KTComp]

@JustinSandercoe Don't you get tired of telling people that? Cheers!

[@ericgottlieb2945]

Who ells hear Houses of the Holy @ 4:50

[@tejohnsga]

@JustinSandercoe Great lesson, ive been looking for a lesson that tells me something about note targeting(?) do you have a lesson like that? Tom Erik from norway

[@robsthedon]

👍

[@1lucasvan1]

isn't that the key of C, VI mode? If it was key of A wouldn't A be the root note with the major 7th, not the dominant 7th, being the 7th chord?

[@1lucasvan1]

in other words, if we are in the key of A, A dom7 would be out of key, but if we were in the key of C, using the relative minor, Amin, Amin dom 7 would be correct...let me know if I'm off base here

[@1lucasvan1]

I love your videos too man, so not being a smartass but just trying to learn.

[@patrickmaksoud1869]

Would you happen to have the tabs for this?
