Most underrated KZbinr! Deserves WAY more subs! Great "on camera" personality and extremely helpful!

[@RyanLendt]

gee thanks Masto :) I'm glad you're finding your time here fruity! I mean fruitful.

[@GreatBirdOfHope]

Absolutely I've been watching guitar videos on KZbin for over a decade now and Ryan is by FAR the most likeable person I have seen!

[@MattH1874]

5 years ago and still a fact.

[@hellspawn9418]

im a beginner and really wanted to learn how to play that riff a the beginning, im totally in love with it.. needed about 5 mins.. def. can't play it nearly as good (ofc), thanks for the great lesson!

[@chrismcgirr1]

Hey Ryan. Been learning guitar for the last couple of years, and you've become my main man throughout that process. First song I learned was I Wanna Be Your Dog by Iggy Pop, and I've since noticed how many songs are derived from that chord progression...to the point where I'd have to say it's one of the most influential songs of all time. Marigold's no exception it seems. Might be a fun one to do sometime. Thanks for being the best guitar teacher a middle aged grunge addict could ask for. Keep up the good work my friend.✊

[@RyanLendt]

thanks for hanging out chris - and great idea :)

[@thomascrosson8541]

Thank you for doing this one. Nice and simple, but very gratifying to play.

[@RyanLendt]

parsley. (precisely). cheers TC :)

Thanks for also explaining how to sing to things like this as well! It actually makes sense but I never really thought to break it down like that 😅 great video as always, but you know I think that of course 😋

[@YounyerDaPapi]

Hey Ryan you think you can learn and teach us how to play Hear my Train A Comin’ by Jimi Hendrix on a 6 string acoustic?

[@RyanLendt]

of course I could, thank you for the request AU :)

[@danielrodrigues2041]

Looking up your videos I get more and more that I love. Thank you!

[@RyanLendt]

you are a gentleman and a scholar dan :)

[@nena73]

thank you so much this is mad useful

[@RyanLendt]

yay thanks :)

[@bells555]

Would anyone have tips on how to slide down with power chords? I’m having trouble with sliding down in the same position without having to reposition and that takes me longer

[@RyanLendt]

you're doing the right thing, just do it a thousand times and it'll get more efficient

[@kalvinhill5308]

very useful information, thank you for sharing your talents

[@RyanLendt]

thank you so much Kalvin :)

[@justquiro3112]

I'm just now learning to play guitar, since we're in quarantine. Do you have a video on how to do the percussive strums? I'm not sure what to do and I just don''t play those little strums :S

[@RyanLendt]

touch all the strings with your left hand (but don't press) and strum away with your right hand. good luck on your journey JQ - it's nice to have you here :)

[@alexcyjayasundara8150]

Great lesson but when i play it with the b and e strings open it kinda overpowers the whole thing what do i do?

[@RyanLendt]

don't strum them so hard? press harder on the rest of the strings? thanks Alexcy :)

[@katycosgrove7083]

why is no one talking about the intro

[@pizrux6592]

nirvana songs are always so fun to play, because they are so repetitive you can just jam out

[@RyanLendt]

aye

[@marcamora2164]

what's the tuning?

[@coolmelliwashere2070]

How do I make my guitar sound like yours, my guitar sounds like a bass with a deep sound idk how to describe. I'm using Dunlop 10 strings

[@RyanLendt]

it would appear I'm playing elizabeth the taylor in this video. I use elixirs for the bright snappy "live stone gossard" tone I chase. Strings have a lot to do with acoustic guitar tone, but certainly not as much as the guitar itself - my only advice to you is try many many things out at the guitar store :)

[@coolmelliwashere2070]

Exactly, I will change my strings set then. Thank you mate, have a great one

[@coolmelliwashere2070]

@@RyanLendt oh btw, could you please tell me the strings you are using and how old are them?

[@coolmelliwashere2070]

@@RyanLendt so I searched through and I saw that snappy sounds is reached with light strings. I will put some Dunlop 10-48 and tell you the results. I'm currently using 11-52 Dunlop strings.

[@kurthodge12]

Off topic question. When you put your capo there, does is mess with your tuning at all? Mine squeezes E A and baby E ever so slightly.. I have an Ibanez tho, maybe the head is fatter than your Taylor. As always, great lesson dude!

[@RyanLendt]

Nope, not the thalia capo anyhow... i have no experience putting other capos there. everyone i know who has a thalia capo keeps theirs there. You should treat yourself to one they are great :)
