Thanks for making these tutorials and bringing joy to the art of learning how to play this beautiful instrument!

This is the first song I learned when I finally picked the guitar up after 30 odd years of thinking the great guitarists were wizards and loving the music and thinking I could never do it, they are and I still cant do it like them but Marty shows us peasants how to play some cool stuff when we have the time. This is still the first thing I play when I pick up a guitar. Ive added here and there to make my own version but Ill always remember coming across this channel and learning how to do it with just one finger, then the power chords. It really was a great feeling being able to knock this down. You are doing the Lords work Marty.

Just completed the 3rd beginner electric guitar lesson, and after learning a few power chords, he wanted to learn the rest of this song. Thanks for another great video. I play finger-style acoustic but didn't know where to start to teach him electric. Your channel has been the perfect supplement to help me teach him the basics.

Thanks Mark for the instructions. I also learning more songs from your other tutorials and i must say you explain the entire song with detail and patience. Thanks for that.

Thanks for the help with the rift. I’m 60 and learning the guitar. My only word of advice to anyone is to enjoy the process of playing and don’t compare yourself to others. I know I’m better than I was 6 months ago. My goal is not to be a pro musician but to embrace the discipline that it takes play music. If I can keep practicing and learning then I’ve accomplished a lot.

If you put your finger closer to the fret wire (little line between the frets), you don’t have to press down as hard. you press harder if you’re in the “middle” or “back” of the fret more (if this made any sense)
