Man I wished I could've had him as a teacher growing up👍

[@eddieconnor8864]

I am 77 learning to play guitar 🎸. Love this song, thanks to you i can play it.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

I’m so glad the lessons help you! Thank you for watching!

[@BillBelsey]

Kevin, I appreciate it when you display the chord graphics over your shoulder as you play them.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Noted :)

[@melodylamour6123]

Hurricane Ian's at my home is almost cleaned up by and repaired, thank goodness. Now I am ready to get my guitar back out. Feeling blessed. I'm grateful for your lessons. Thank you.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

We are glad you are safe and thank you for watching!

Hello just starting to follow you videos I’m 64 years old and just the past 6 months learning how to play electric guitar always wanted to learn when I retired to challenge myself the one song that I watch it on your video is simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd, which is excellent for someone that is learning beginner. I’m not gonna be a jimmy page or Jimi Hendrix. My goal is the next couple of years just to enjoy and learn how to play the guitar. Thanks

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Welcome! You are in the right place. Happy to hear you like the lessons,. You don't have to be Jimmy Page to relax and have some fun playing guitar :)

[@michaelelliott2383]

Thx Kevin for your through walk thru explanations on all your songs! I’m finally learning and adding new songs again. Appreciate it. MCE, Austin,Tx

Thank you good way to pass winter

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

You bet

[@prtygirl83]

Thank you so much. I love your teaching style❤️ I just wasted money on lessons and have learned zero songs. Your channel has brought these classics to my level and I'm finally enjoying playing along to songs and "attempting" singing. It's so fun!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Happy to help!

[@kathleenargerake1993]

One of my faves! Cant wait to play along with your version!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Great! Have fun with it. Thanks for tuning in!

[@walther9161]

Third time watching and really like that “no chord” technique especially until it becomes easier to do the g Great video and your singing is pretty good!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@blueser100]

Love this one. Added it to my RLG song binder. 📘

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

It is one of My favorites too!

[@RunningWithScissors765]

Kevin if you could.. I’d love to have some R.E.O Speedwagon songs too. Maybe some other America tunes and always Tom petty songs. Yer so bad… you got lucky. Those would be some excellent first strummers

[@stevenpatterson5319]

Great Job.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you!

[@jerrykahler5586]

Great lesson what guitar are you playing?

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

I am playing a Martin D1-R

[@kathleenargerake1993]

Oh, i see you play a Martin?! Im thinking about getting a lil, small body guitar. What do you think of that one? My dream guitar always was a Martin! But i dont want a big one. Currently playing a youth classical and i really like the size and weight, but looking to replace my steel string with a better sounding guitar, and a Martin. Whats your opinion?

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Check out this review of the Martin Dreadnought Jr. I own one and really like it.kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJWldoOeo6qDldU
