ALRIGHT!! I always want to encourage everyone to play and learn new styles or songs. It always works better if you've got a goal for yourself: *record a clip of you playing this blues and post it on Instagram mentioning me @pauldavidsguitar!* Good luck (Sound great on an electric too!) Use the hashtags #pauldavids and #fingerstyleblues

This was my first real fingerstyle song I tried and it sounded terrible at first, felt like I wasn't getting it. After a couple of weeks practice I got it sounding pretty decent. So don't give up! very fun song to play

I am so exited having mastered that piece...Over a week, 2 hours a day...and now I still cant believe I'm able to do it...Great stuff thanks (the little shake on the b string within)😉 Greetings from🇨🇭

I´m watching the full Bond Saga from the beginning . I started this amazing lesson with "Dr No"...I´m now with "Diamonds are Forever"...and the whole 12 bars are barely starting to sound like a blues mess. Two films a week...The whole movie with the guitar in my hands repeating 4 bars at a time...fighting against my neurons all the time...slowly...quiet...my wife enduring the Bond Saga and my dreadful plucking all the time...she really loves me!!!... Next weekend we´ll be entering the Roger Moore ERA....That´s my mission...When I get to Daniel Craig´s "No Time to Die"...I have to master this blues!!!

This is a beautiful composed piece of music. I’m going to learn how to play it. I’m gonna play it on a fender Newporter. I love your channel. You’re a excellent teacher you know the guitar very well. I’ve been playing for 51 years. You know it better than I do, but I never went to college. I took lessons for five years off of soul surfer Johnny fortune. He was my guitar mentor. He taught me a lot of chords and taught me basic finger style guitar. I took it the rest of the way, love your style❤️❤️😄👍🎸🎼🎵🎶🎸
