Bro, I heard "wanted dead or alive." I wanted to learn it, so I searched you tube and you popped up. I have been watching your video and playing it for about 3-4 weeks. I really enjoyed your tutorial, I have practiced with it multiple times with your tutorial. You are very good in explaining and teaching. I appreciate it. I started playing the guitar when I was about 32 years old. I had a great instructor Wayne Jarrel who was amazing and motivated me to learn the guitar. He is embedded in my life forever. You have some of those same qualities. It brought back great memories. I mostly play chords, but at this point in my life I am challenging myself to play stuff more difficult. This song and your tutorial is working great. Another three weeks to a month and I will be shredding it, I am 62 years old and still ripping my axe!

[@averagenobody.4832]

Oh, 20 years ago or so. Forgot all of it and picked it up about 3 years ago now. Was not like riding a bike! I’m mostly a rhythm player now. Keeping it simple. 3,4,5 chord songs that I can sing. I anticipate this will take me 4-6 months to work in and play well. Old fingers and far too few neuro-pathways! But I will get it. Thank you again.

@@Studio33guitar Thanks for asking. I started the first of August, 2020. I've always wanted to learn to play guitar, but never took the steps necessary to make it happen. I'm so glad I took the plunge. It is frustrating at times, but also rewarding as I slowly creep along at a snail's pace. I have in person lessons once a week, but I find videos help so much to reinforce what I learn in the lesson because I can stop, rewind, and watch as many times as necessary. Your tip for playing the simplified F is going to be a game changer. I subscribed to your channel and will be making my way through your lessons. Thank you again.

Very well done showing clearly while actually explaining in simple terms, how to progress through the riff smoothly. I learned this one by ear (I have perfect pitch, but not the guitar fundamentals). I had to start at 25% speed, and slowly work my way up. A lot of picky people will cry foul that it “doesn’t sound like the song!”. Well, that’s when I played it for some of my finicky friends on my Epiphone 12 string 😉

Thank you so much for actually taking the time to break this down! By far the BEST lesson on learning this iconic song! I’m learning it on my 12 string. Have it down pretty good considering I just sat down tonight with it. The most difficult part for me is skipping the B string. I’ve written some original songs where I do a lot of string skipping with picking, so it’s just a matter of playing this one slow and setting the picking pattern to muscle memory. Then the speed and timing will come. I’m in the same boat with Silent Lucidity - that one is giving me fits ugh…lol

[@Studio33guitar]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad this video helped you. It's a great song and I bet it sounds amazing on your 12 string. How long have you been playing guitar?

[@randyfox8484]

Yes, it sounds really nice on my 12 string thanks to you! It will sound even better when I have it down where I can play it consistently clean and with the same tempo. You make it look so easy and effortlessly! I’ve been playing 6 string acoustic and electric since I was 13 (I’m a young 61 now). Albeit the playing was off and on due life happenings... I picked up my first 12 string about 10 years ago. I traded an Ibanez 6 string electric for it. It was love at first strum - even though I knew nothing about how to even begin to play it. There’s definitely something magical about the 12 string and it has been the inspiration for so many original songs. It just resonates with me. Especially since I learned about drop tuning and now play exclusively in Drop D tuning. I’m basically self taught - I’ve not taken any formal lessons. I’ve been a lot more serious about my playing for about the past 5 years or so. I developed my own arpeggiated picking style - finger style but with picking (which is why I was so drawn to your lesson for the Wanted intro). I do skip strings a lot in my arpeggiated style (there’s also strumming in certain parts). I met my current songwriting partner about 5 years ago - I sent her some of my early originals that I had recorded on my iPhone when we first started dating. She was (and is) very inspired by my style of playing and the chords I choose (lots of minors). She tells my my music takes her on journeys. She’s told my I’m a very emotional player and it comes out in my music. She’s had her own rock bands and has played in many others, yet she’s told me no one has ever inspired her like my playing has. She believes in me and our music. She is all in on our music (she’s written original songs as well). She plays guitar, keyboards, she writes lyrics, she sings, she composes, she arranges. She’s learning how to record, mix and master our songs. I tell her all the time that I have the easy part - I just have to come up with songs lol. We’ve recorded some demos that she’s working with so we can start getting our music out there. The songs I’ve written are influenced by Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Chris Cornell and Pearl Jam, just to name a few. I’d love to share a couple of our demos with you so you can get a better feel for what we’re doing.

[@Studio33guitar]

That’s great! Have you uploaded any of your songs to KZbin? Or somewhere else? I’d love to hear some!

[@randyfox8484]

We don’t have anything posted publicly as of yet. As my songwriting partner is learning recording/mixing/mastering as we go along, she wants to have the recordings as polished and professional sounding as possible before unleashing them. The first song we have slated for release (on Spotify, KZbin, to our fan base etc.) is an instrumental that we wrote where I’m playing the rhythm progression that I came up with (string skipping included) on my 12 string and she’s playing the lead over it. She nailed the lead on it perfectly as it could not have been more fitting for the progression I wrote. We’ve received very heartfelt positive responses from the friends and family we’ve shared it with and have played it live for. It even brought tears to her 94 years old dad. That being said, I can send the demo file to you directly if there’s a way you can give me your email address without having you get thrown under the bus by announcing it to the world. I can also post my email address on here so you can contact me directly so I can send it to you if you’d prefer.

@@Studio33guitar I've been playing on and off for quite a few years. But I just can't seem to keep up the will or joy after a while. Then I put down the guitar and only play it once in a while. Maybe it's because I don't have a good enough daily rehearsal plan, or the "guitar spirit" just don't last very long inside me. It's very expensive to get a personal face to face teacher, and there are so many sites online that teach guitar. That is very confusing to me, and I often don't know which way I want to go. Maybe you have an idea to how I can maintain my focus and don't give up after a short period.. That would be very appreciated!

@@Studio33guitar I've been playing for 18 months. I originally started playing back in 1978 but my work put that on hold working many hours. Then 18 months ago while in lock down I decided to start playing again. I used to play the shadows music Hank Marvin. But I've always been a fan of Bon Jovi. Your lesson is spot on mate very clear on how to play. So much appreciated. Keep up the great work and have a great day. Regards from UK 👍👍🎸🎸
