I count (a little) and never formally studied counting from the ground up. Even though I do a lot of finger style, I am finding this suprisingly difficult. I am having to spent several days on each layer to make sure I don't get off the beat somewhere as I combine all the elements. But like you said, it sounds noticeable different (more interesting) when you get it right. Reminds me of what G.E. Smith said when he started to lead the SNL band for his 10 year stent. "I'm going to have to learn to count... "

I have suddenly wanted to try learning a whole new genre of tunes. I heard this song “Blue Glasses” by Smokey & Miho. I was like “ how hard could it be?” Well, when all you’ve played is country and folk stuff....yeah..I was lost. But now I found you, so I think I’m going to be able to up my game. Thanks❤️

[@soundguitar]

Haha, nice! Thanks, and good luck with the new sounds :)

Pick up a Fats Domino CD and fool around with Blueberry Hill on the piano. It is liberating

[@ChrisWoodGuitarist]

Excellent, Excellent tutorial. Great detail and explanations. Thank you.

[@soundguitar]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks

[@tjardnadebusch7304]

Fantastic explanation. Thank you very much.

[@Polyman92]

Amazing thanks a lot for this! :)

[@TimMeyerMusic]

Absolutely brilliant…….I’ve been attempting to learn the basics of Trieste and now I’m ready to sell my guitar

[@ambrakaur2499]

I just checked out the song for curiosity. In the guitar part I don't hear the "bass notes" part, only the top rhythm. Convenient for me as I can still only play the top rhythm, haven't mastered adding the half notes under it... And how is it going for you now by the way?

[@ryanfmatos]

i just spent several hours trying to match off beats by luck and it always sound awful. Thanks for the video, now i can definitely play bossa nova

[@ron-en6pf]

Excellent job!

[@soundguitar]

Thank you very much!

[@batuhanpolat4091]

you have a great way yo teach❤

[@roofygoose9129]

perfect, thanks a lot!

[@aberrant_convolution]

sick, going to check out the ones I don't know on your faves list! it's been quite a while since i was on a bossa nova kick, one of those styles that always seem to fit whatever the weather is! I've always loved Astrud Gilberto's version of Tristeza.

[@soundguitar]

I love that version too! Agreed on Bossa feeling appropriate almost any time. :) Thanks, Chris!

[@HuyVu-vi4ut]

Very detail and easy to understand. Thank you very much

[@hueyhoolihan582]

i think it would be clearer if ALL the syncopated notes were written as eight notes with rests between them even though the sustain length may not be equal in a performance setting. it would at least be clear that they are functionally equivalent WRT their initial attacks. the way it's written, there is an eighth note followed by what amounts to a quarter note, followed by another eighth note followed by a doted quarter note. and yet it was described verbally as a series of equal notes. ...very confusing for the less sophisticated student that may not be all that familiar with musical notation.

[@codygramlich]

I agree that it's not very clear. I was following along until he played everything together and now I'm trying to read the sheet music get the rythm right and I'm having trouble.

[@darthriahuz1]

Thank you so much for the detailed breakdown! I think it will take some time for me to get down to the rhythm however, it was really helpful with the rhythm exercise!

[@soundguitar]

You're welcome! Glad that helped. Definitely let it take time, that's great. you'll get there. Cheers, -Jared

[@MADguitar]

10 min video with too little guitar demo. Frustrating tutorial for me.. hitting the 10 sec back button so often I quit...

[@stuartarnold4495]

Really good, "bossa nova" is for finger playing which is what I do. But not classical. Thanks Jared. Your videos are good to follow practical with just a little theory.

[@soundguitar]

Thanks, Stuart! :)

[@OrganicFaithFactory]

I would love to hear your playing. Maybe it would make people understand better by actual show them. I can't find the actual playing that legit

[@hueyhoolihan582]

best to simply do it a WHOLE LOT SLOWER at first.

[@rainervogel9462]

It is a really great video, but at 6:30 I also thought the speed is rather challenging. Fortunately you can reduce the playback speed. Even more If you use the Chrome Browser you can install the nice plugin "FiveLoop", which eables you to conveniently control the playback (set loops, adjust the speed, forward/rewind or shift the pitch).

[@hueyhoolihan582]

@@rainervogel9462 thanks for the heads up on the app.

[@mikec2660]

seems a little fast for bossa

[@philomenehoffman9030]

your lesson examples played way to fast man for a beginner! May be very boring fopr you as an exceptional player. Thank you anuway!

[@learningpower9437]

You see....people might like your teaching...but I was expecting more guitar practice and less theory and after getting the rhythm ok..... then we switch to the theory...Maybe, this is the wrong video for me as a beginner...let me look around...

[@OrganicFaithFactory]

Its too much talk for me as well

[@PupazzaNesimo]

that is not Bossanova but principiant approach, nothing else.
