Wow. Thank you so much for breaking this down in the way you did. I've been on your girl from ipanema tutorial, so this would have been the better tutorial to watch first . Got very confused on those chords there, that have the xx's on the inner strings. Plus, what's so cool about this, is I'm not just wanting to play other artists songs all the time. Those bossa nova chords sound so good, and if I can get the rhythm, then lots to experiment with. Have been reading and watching other videos on some of the performances. One that I can recommend is Frank Sinatra and Antonio Jobim , which is on KZbin. Also, another with his wife, astrud , I think her name was/is.

You're very welcome, Joel! Beautiful, I LOVE those versions by Jobim, Sinatra, and Astrud. Glad you like them too! And thanks for reminding me of them. I'll put them on tonight :) Thanks for sharing where you're at and I'm so glad that some of my lessons are helping. You mentioned working on the bossa rhythm specifically, if you haven't seen it yet I break that down in detail in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5LEh515gZ6BfsU Cheers! -Jared

If you did a whole series for us mortals on Classical Fingerstyle Guitar For Beginners, it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. ;)

Wonderful lesson Jared , i have learnt a lot from your videos. I was wondering if this can be applied to Electric guitar too or a normal acoustic guitar too ?

[@soundguitar]

Thanks, Siddharth. Good question. Yes, absolutely! I do this on electric all the time ** Jared
