Another classic! 🙌 this is one of my dad's favourite songs, and I can see why! I can't wait to play it for him later 😁

[@user-uu1wc6yz5z]

I was thinking something sort of the same .... that I can't wait to do this song this summer camping with my sisters family .

[@thestellarguitarist]

This is awesome! 🙌 I hope you have fun playing guitar for him soon 🎵

[@thestellarguitarist]

That’s so lovely to hear! I am glad you look forward to my tutorials every week 😁🎵

[@AaronPlowman-qn1px]

Great lesson and awesome song. I find myself skipping right to the playthrough on some of your lessons. I'm able to play proficient and without checking fretboard which btw seemed like an insurmountable task. Thank you! You're making a Stellar guitar guy out of me. 😎💛🤯🙏💯

[@user-uu1wc6yz5z]

I myself am somewhat proficient at my chord changes , but I like to watch Amber's whole vid and see if there are any tips that get integrated in doing any song that she is presenting ....... Plus it helps her channel out with the minutes per view .

[@AaronPlowman-qn1px]

@@user-uu1wc6yz5z noted and thanks. Ain't she great!!

[@AaronPlowman-qn1px]

​@@user-uu1wc6yz5zI also noticed that my illiterate typing skullls was not conveying my point😏. She has got me up and playing so that I'm able to play by just checking chord progression. I've been a fan from Day 1! and am lucky to have come to find Amber. Done so much for me 🙏😎

All true thank you! 🙌🙌🙌

[@dalemerkley4531]

Believe it or not I have struggled in the past with this simple John Denver song. Your approach made it so simple, I almost feel foolish that I have struggled. The biggest thing for me was a strumming pattern which you made so simple. Thank you for your love and dedication to music

[@user-uu1wc6yz5z]

Amazing how her instruction system works so well . It is such a patient and method based system . Have you signed up for her online course ?

Clothes, decorations with paisley patterns, and song are so much 60s I had to learn the song to help my flashback of getting on that plane to basic training and tiger land. Airborne!

[@thestellarguitarist]

I’m glad you think so! It’s one of the songs I always teach my students early on 🙏🎵

[@davidmckinney208]

Great Job Amber! You make it so easy to learn guitar. I remember this song from the strum along. I'll try to post a video tonight. 🎸🎵

[@thestellarguitarist]

Just watched your play along in the group, or should I say OUR play along 😋🎵🙌

[@topdog26]

Hi, just wanted to share my own affirmation that you make a difference and I wanted to thank you so much. I have a humble little nack for this guitar. I picked up an ear for it and improved my dexterity. So I wanted instructions. Lessons were embarrassing on his part. I didn't want to hurt his feelings but canceled and that didn't work. Subscribed to many KZbinrs that always felt spotty and incomplete. Amber, every lesson you put out i am able to play that song with minimal practice. You are also the first person I came across that puts it all together in the end. Which was frustrating me that these artists would teach chords, intro's , rifs verses, but never put it all together like you do. So Thanks!! I knew I could do this and thanks to you I was right!!

[@thestellarguitarist]

What a lovely message! I am so glad my teaching and tutorials have made such a big difference to you on your guitar journey 🙏 🎸 nothing makes me happier! I hope you continue to watch my lessons and learn lots!

[@tomcharters9005]

Elderly Woman behind the Counter...by Pearl Jam would be phenomenal to learn

[@thestellarguitarist]

I’ll check your request out! Thank you for watching and jamming along with me in my tutorial 😃🎵🎸

[@markcafebrown2883]

Stella hope you’re enjoying your vacation. You deserve it. Will you learn Heaven from Warrant please? I can’t seem to figure out the strumming pattern of that beautiful song

[@allensmall3937]

I'm playing this song for many years. I hate to play it at a gig,but if the crowd singing along, then you play it.Al the way from Kleinmond.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi Allen! Yeah I get it- sometimes playing a song over and over can totally kill it for you hey 🙈🙈🙈 but sometimes you gotta give the people what they wanna hear! 😂

[@shaunabloom6088]

Hi Amber, today’s tutorial was good also would you know want size is Richwood guitar RW 25 NT

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi Shauna 😃 thanks so much for watching, I am so glad you enjoyed the tutorial 🙌 I am not familiar with the Richwood RW 25, if might be worth visiting a store that stocks that brand and having a look at what is on offer! Guitar shopping is such fun!

[@lucastroobants3956]

Hey, great tutorial I havee problems with singing and playing at the same time doe you have tips ? Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi Lucas, oooohfff this is a very common thing that many guitarists struggle with. You are not alone! You need to work on getting your strumming arm on autopilot- which is step one. Then I’d suggest signing the song in your head, then humming it out loud. Then add words.. another thing you can do is play along with the original track to help keep you in time and to sing along with the singer. This gives you a sort of blueprint to follow if you feel your strumming and singing is beginning to go out of time. This singing/strumming issue is so specific to each individual. Maybe record yourself giving it a go and watch it back so you can truly see what needs attention. And lastly, working with a teacher for a 1:1 in person lesson (maybe just once or twice) could help. Good luck! 😃🎵🌟

Another great song for beginners is. (Until I'm too old to die young) By Boe Brady Please check it out.. I can't figure out the strumming pattern...

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi! I’ll have a look at the song. I receive 100’s of requests so I can’t promise a tutorial, but definitely will listen to it and see what I think 🙌🎵

@@fryeguy9939 thank you! I did find it 😊

[@arthurmabeejr8752]

The Cadd9 chord is more harder to play than the Maj C, if you look at the illustration: you can see that your using a 4th finger, it's slightly a different sound as well. The standard C Chord or Maj C is much better for beginners because you have to press that 4 finger down harder onto the string, if not correctly pressed it sounds bad or like the guitar has a blamed buzz when in fact it's not pressed correctly. The C Chord uses 3 fingers, if you press them evenly behind each fret it sounds more natural, even if you make a mistake, the C Maj is more forgiven than a C add 9, think about that? It's almost the same with a G Maj chord, many artist use the extra pinky on the E because it enhances the G Maj.

I guess each to their own! 😄🎵
