Status Quo "Down Down" in OPEN G TUNING Guitar Lesson

[@andycrowley]

Thanks for watching guys! Status Quo were one of my Dads favourite bands, so this one meant a lot to me :)

[@danielbray4122]

Hi Andy i really enjoy ur vids in the future could u maybe do a lesson for the riff from no church in the wild ?

[@Holty22]

Hi Andy did you ever used to teach in primary schools on acoustic?

[@andycrowley]

Nope. But that is where I had my first guitar lesson as a student

[@maxbeale8186]

Status Quo are so underrated and deserve more recognition

[@thomaspolice9400]

I'm almost 77 and have now, at last, discovered how to play Quo 'style' as I'm the most lazy person on Earth! Brilliant pal.

[@acebbx6101]

I love that the first 2 mins is just Andy rocking out. Love the vids. Hope everyone is well

[@henrygoleau]

I'm on my 4th year of learning guitar. 2 years in I checked out this lesson because I like the song but I kinda gave up thinking it was too complicated for me but now I can handle it and the explanations completely make sense. I guess I wasn't ready back then lol (the up and down strokes and the speed were completely overwhelming, fretting hand couldn't keep up). What a great tune to rock out to. Thanks! Oh, and I'm probably your dad's age lol.

[@chalkboardjamtracks]

Thanks for showing this with the open tuning and the capo. Much easier on the hands and wrists than all the barres, which is how I learned it back in the day before I realised that there was an easier way!

[@thomaspolice9400]

Exactly. All those arthritic Wrists and ripped fingers.

[@Diamond-wk7wz]

I‘m 15, and at our school, every boy knows Status Quo and „Down Down“

[@MrChrisBarker]

You won't go far wrong 🫡

[@michealfearn6408]

Since I was a kid always wanted to play quo now I can thanks Andy.

[@martijnvanderheden]

I loved listening to this😊. How about next time 'Blue eyed lady' from Status quo?

[@MrMerseyblue]

I used to work with a guy, who like myself loved going to gigs. He always maintained to this day, Status Quo was THE best live band he'd ever seen. I sadly never got to see them. I never took much notice of them until I watched an episode of TOTP2 and some band was playing a song called Pictures of Matchstick men. I was blown away by it. Even more so when I realised what band was playing it.

[@SteadyChap]

never too late to go see Quo, their gigs are still just as great!

[@odysseycoachsales5547]

Hi Andy. Love this. I've watched many KZbin videos on down down but you make it easy to follow. Could you do more quo as I really find your videos easy to follow but really struggle with quo. Any body who thinks it's easy 3 chords needs to re-think!

[@Andy-hb8kl]

Quo were experts at making it sound simple.

[@Gaasserocker]

Thank you very much!🙏🏻

[@mysticalmessengers7751]

Awsome lesson andy thank you soo much. Absolutely love this song too..see how close i can get to the tone on my pacifica 🎸!

[@mrmitchell78]

This song is perfect. Great lesson!

[@williamdolan2673]

Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere sent me! (American) got turned on to Status Quo (and Peter Kay) while touring the UK.... Brilliant.

[@andymoore7755]

Reminds me of max and paddy when they are rocking in their camper van and they get caught by the speed camera 😆🤘

[@mgwaite10]

Great one, you're loving that Andy, easy to hear it.

[@Dash8Q400Channel]

Great stuff Andy

[@christredeau3516]

I have been experimenting with open G recently. Slide guitar " Little Red Rooster". So this open G tune is great fun. Especially using the capo. Thanks Andy!.. 😎✨

[@Patrick-qc4zy]

So glad he kept it rocking when showing us I didn't want tit to stop I was watching the TV and suddenly my kid popped and rocked out hahaha

[@piyushpathak1526]

loved it andy!!!

[@ssethsamm]

Thank you for this!

[@kenjones6441]

Great lesson. Makes me want to play this.

[@Avetorro]

Great stuff. I’m not 100% sure but I think he plays the 4th as well as the 6th on the riff at 0:34 seconds in, i.e. first fret second string?

[@Bumble-yl6zs]

Loving this one Andy 🎸 Cheers dude 🤘

[@johnwinstanley4359]

[@TomTom-kv5nf]

[@Jgbj467]

Hey Andy can you make a lesson of in the army now by status quo ?

[@40mosher]

How do you hold your pick? I can’t stop the plectrum rotating or working it’s way out of my grip.

[@wataboutya9310]

Really good lesson man! I love that tune!

[@alexkidd1604]

[@tigris-brawlstars71]

[@sjaakie3388]

[@Tongpooo007]

[@nealemuldowney7455]

What is the name of that 'Classic Chuck Berry riff type thing'?

[@andycrowley]

A blues shuffle aka rock n roll boogie riff

[@raiyanBorer]

Andy can u listen to this song its called "Inxs - afterglow" If u do then would u be able to make a tutorial of it

[@iangillon6981]

My Dad as well!! :)

[@maxheight22]

Fun fact: status quo re-released this song in the 2000s and became the theme song for the Australian supermarket Coles.

[@allinson_sam]

One of my uncle’s got me into status quo

[@andycrowley]

I like his style 🤘

[@allinson_sam]

@@andycrowley favourite status quo song and are you from UK if so do you do private lessons

[@praneetambig9804]

Hey pls do a giveaway of Andy guitar pick it looks cool I want it

[@christopherdean3606]

Might have to look at an electric guitar 🎸 after this

[@222fox1]

Cool...

[@guitartuitioncoventry437]

Definative version of guitar part in my opinion. Been after this for years. No guitar is ever in tune.Sounds ok to me. Hitting the strings will make it sharp for a millisecond any deflection of string being fretted same thing.See Buzz Feiten Tuning System. Critics need to read about equal tempered, just intonation etc. Read How Equal Temperament Ruined Harmony (and Why You Should Care) .

[@carlcruysberghs2298]

❤

[@joeroganjosh9333]

On behalf of Les Battersby, thank you.

[@Thebigkeoghowski]

In The Army Now is my favourite Status Quo song. Would love a tutorial for it.

[@andycrowley]

🤘

[@lukeneylon6471]

Listened to quo enough well all my life actually and I can say the tuning is slightly off

[@4stevio]

I thought so too, looks right, doesn't sound right.

[@onions5751]

Yoooo

[@c.h.fieldsports9876]

far too advanced for me, that was more of a demonstration than a lesson 😂back to standard twanging for me i reckon🤣

[@dilsha7683]

Early

[@TheTim046]

Didnt understand those chords at all:*

[@AmbroseB1900]

Check out Andy's lesson on Jumping Jack Flash of 4 years ago where he explains how to put your guitar into open g tuning, it's real fun and worth a go!
