I'm 55 and I just picked up the guitar a month ago. I am so thankful for your lessons. I've been working on trying to get smooth transitions form chord to chord and trying keep my strumming hand going on time. There is so much to learn and it is so fun.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Stick with it. You will be rewarded. Have fun with it and thanks for your support here on KZbin !

[@bobwadsworth4799]

Yeah. I am 65 and just started to learn how to play the guitar a month ago and I too am struggling with a smooth transition between chords. Some are easier than others. I'm working with an instructor but I came across this channel and hope to utilize it more when I am ready to start to play more songs.

[@19_serj_37]

Cheers from Italy man and happy new year! Thanks you so much for these 4 classics especially Wonderful Tonight in such easy and sweet arrangement. Was searching a light version for so long and finally someone arranged it. Thanks you again, keep up the great work!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Cheers! Thanks for watching and happy it helped

[@efrataway]

I really enjoy your video Very didactic and relaxed. As a beginner, it's an absolute pleasure! Thank you!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@markguertin210]

I like how you show chords that make songs easy to play instead of some who have LGD =Lead Guitarest Disease. Lol. We all can't play like Van Halen

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

LGD. Lol good one!

[@blueser100]

These are some great classic songs to learn whatever your level. So great to see in the comments that people are learning these songs from RLG and seeing real progress. 😊

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Hi there! Thanks. Yes, we really enjoy helping others play more guitar. That’s what it is all about :)

[@walther9161]

Iv’e learned a lot about hybrid picking from Kevin’s videos.. good stuff !!

[@BaldoCuenz]

Excellent tutorial guitar lesson.😊You are a nice person and wonderful man for helping us to learn it in easy and fun way.Thank you and God bless you and your family😊

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you for your support! We love what we do!

[@NordsYT]

Just discovered your channel on KZbin here in England. Excellent lessons, plus you're a great chap. Look forward to looking through other videos you have uploaded.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! More to come!

[@chrishardy3439]

Been a long time since I’ve played but for your 1st song, same strum pattern and almost same chords as last kiss which is G to an A or Amin I think to C to D.

[@Doowopsid]

Thank you for this great lesson. I learned a lot and most importantly can now play a few well known easy songs that people will recognize. Can you please let me know which model guitar you are playing and what strings do you like to use? Thank you

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Hi there! Happy to help and thanks for watching. I play a Martin D1-R. Bought new in 1999. You can still find them used. Great guitar. I use Daddario light phosphor bronze strings.

[@Doowopsid]

@@Relaxandlearnguitar Thank you!

[@brendantindall805]

one thing I wish I got told, is the group of chords that go together in a key eg wonderful tonight, how G,C,D and Em fit in G and for eg C,F,G and Am in key of C

[@randywollin5732]

Nice to see some beginner level teaching going on here. Seems so many of the instruction vids are way past this stage. I used to play and I was pretty good at picking out part of a song and after the part that is played I would tend to go off on my own take on the rest. Not accurate to the song but I only play for my own pleasure anyway. I used to live on hammer ons and pull offs and could pick the right string ever time, those were things that I took for granted. That is where I was 35 years ago. Then I got a bad case of carpal tunnel syndrome and had to quit until not too long ago. I found that I'm worse now than when I first started out in the 60s and 70s. Still playing the same HagstromII that I bought while in the Army in the 70s. Still love that guitar.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Great!

[@tommaxwell429]

Good stuff! Well done! Always sing! Even if you suck like I do. The purpose is to have fun, you'll learn the guitar part much better if you can sing with it.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! I Agree

[@aaronlarsen7447]

Thanks for the video. I've been playing 35 yrs and this is just fine for me, as a singer. Songs don't need to be hard. I just need to learn more songs faster. I put a simple fingerstyle pattern over Wonderful Tonight. It works pretty good. This goes in the gig book.

Hey Kevin would you mind saying what model Martin you are playing please? Your guitar sounds great. I have a Martin as well, but for some reason don’t think it sounds as good as yours. Please if you could your model, and USA or Mexico guitar? Thanks man! Love your videos! You and your wife and your dog are the best 😀

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Hey there. It is a USA from late 90’s. Model D1-R. You can find them used. Great guitar!

[@whydidtheballooneatthefox282]

This really helped alot thank you so much!! 🎉 I would love if you could to a tutorial on John denver’s looking for space! It’s such a beautiful song

3 week newbie here, with a piano background. I sounded like a pine knot in a saw mill before I found this channel. It had me feelin' lower than a hog's chin on market day, but now I'm happier than cat at a fish fry! In fact, I'm so happy, I subscribed!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Welcome to the challenge. Your sug makes us happier than Maggie with a bone. :)

[@DDuMond1]

I just found your channel and I've really enjoyed the first few videos I've watched! I'm curious which Martin you are playing? Thanks

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Welcome and thanks for watching! That is my D1-R. Owned since 99. You can find them used sometimes. Great guitar!

[@mocmoc6097]

Is that a Martin DM you're playing? Great idea, by the way. I always thought learning a song was better than trying to learn a bunch of chords. Immediate sense of accomplishment. Learn more songs, learn more chords. Good luck to you!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks!

[@tommymejia8244]

Great Lessons. Thanks. What model is that Martin you have? It sounds really good. I'm in the market for a Martin.
