Thanks for another amazing video rusty. Its finally November and I'm really excited and looking forward for the teaching your gonna start this month. I'm very interested no matter the cost because out of everyone on KZbin you are my go to teacher now. I've learned alot from you these past 6 months and cant wait for more. Let me know how I sign up or how or when your starting this cause I cant wait

[@rustysguitar1]

This is a very encouraging comment Shane! This is what keeps me going for sure! I will be announcing the launch of the lessons on my channel and community page! I’m so glad you are interested and we will talk soon buddy✌️

Thank you for that it was very inspiring.

Excellent lesson. Having played for decades, I knew pretty much everything you showed, all the shapes, scale tones, etc, but the way you put it all together resonated more than it has for me in the past. And that little sliding barre for the B chord is something I never really thought of before, but will add it to my repertoire. So simple I feel silly for never having thought of it before. This is the first lesson of yours I've looked at, but just subscribed, and will be looking into your other videos.

[@mes-64]

I owned various guitars at various times throughout the last 50 years. I never practiced, never knew what to practice and never did anything consistently with them. Thusly although I dreamed of playing the guitar well, I never advanced beyond the level of basic beginner. This video has done more for my playing growth and development than anything I’ve tried over the last 50 years. Now that I’m retired with not as much to do, you and this video have given me a great gift of hope. I can’t thank you enough.

[@rustysguitar1]

Hey Mark, I’m so happy to read your message! It’s great that you have a new excitement for playing again! If you ever have any questions don’t hesitate to ask! Have a fun week playing that guitar 🎸 This week! Rock on Mark! Thanks 🤛

Started playing at 23. Power chords for about a year. Had a kid and didn't pick up again for almost 30 years. Started 6 months ago and have been kicking my ass every day for putting it down. Love Rusty's lessons...so detailed and visual.

Hey rusty, thanks again. I seem to only watch your videos of late and am considering cancelling my normal lessons as I get more out of your videos. Your description is amazing. If only you lived in the uk for 1 to 1 lesson 😃

I landed on this video by chance and so pleased I did! I have played acoustic fingerstyle for years but always by rote learning from tablature.

I play piano and read music etc understanding what you have shown in this super video delivered in a very understandable way.

This is a really great and simple lesson; I don't understand why other instructors get so into the weeds of things. Probably the best thing one can do in guitar is memorize the fretboard.

I have been practicing this guitar thing for decades. Took me about 50 odd years to start seeing the relationship found between chords and the notes found within them. I am thrilled with one more little step I've taken in my journey But an added gift...I figured it out all by myself. Videos such as this one confirms what my brain finally allowed me to see and hear. Love music with all my soul. Thank you so very much. God bless.

[@deadreckoning4132]

Here's another pro tip: If you're having a hard time breaking out of the pentatonic boxes, improvise over backing tracks. Trust me on this, it takes months but you'll get to where you can improvise over anything. Sit down everyday and improvise over at least three full backing tracks. Even if the stuff sounds the same. Just keep doing it. All over music even if the notes take you outside of the notes in the scale.

[@rustysguitar1]

You are right! I takes many many hours of practice! We just have to keep doing it! Thanks buddy for the comment! ✌️

Awesome lesson Rusty! I've never seen anyone explain the use of major chord notes as well as you have! Looking forward to more.
