How in the hell is this shit free. This guy is the perfect teacher. Chill as hell, perfectly paced, great pointers, and ultimately a bad ass player.

I’m blind and have always wanted to learn guitar but having browsed Youtube for years trying to find the right tutor, I’ve struggled to find people who explain with words. It’s all very visual stuff. Thank you so much Justin for saying exactly what we need to do out loud..

YouTube is littered with guitar teachers giving very brief and shallow lessons on techniques and whatnot, and then after the 8 or so minute video they plug their overpriced lessons on their website for more in depth lessons. And then this guy puts out a 20 minute video, perfectly paced and explained, in perfect lighting and an actual camera man. Easily one of the best guitar lessons on YouTube.

It gets easier, but the path evolves. You will come to a point where youre able to watch a cover 1 time and be able to do it. Or to be able to do it by ear. Better yet, make your own songs Long road, enjoy each step

I am turning 1,337 years old today and have been practicing for a full year with this method. I can confidently say that this year has been pivotal in my progress. Thank you.

I've been playing for 39 years. My single biggest regret in my self-taught approach is that I put ALL the emphasis on the left hand and none on the picking hand. In recent years I've really wanted to learn to finger pick but even in the YouTube era, I couldn't find anyone that explained it in a way that really connected with me...until today. This is great. Thanks!!

I was thinking "wtf how are the strings in tune but so loose" and he immediately explained it. Nice work.

At the first part of this year I was told that I'm in the end stages of heart failure and I just had my ninth heart attack three weeks ago. I'm 54 years old and my wife and I adopted our first child 6 years ago. I have always encourage my daughter to never say that she can't do something. That the only time you can't do something, it's because you stopped trying. About a month ago she, right out of the blue, said Papa teach me how to play a guitar. I said sweetheart your Papa can't play a guitar. Busted me with: Papa...did you stop trying. We both got guitars tonight. Never say you can't do something! I've watched this so many times tonight I'm starting to answer him! 🎅

A heart-felt Thank You. As a 59-year-old who put his guitars away several years ago, I want to voice my appreciation for this video. I pulled my guitars back out about a year ago, even bought a Gretsch (love it), but haven't really taken off playing again. I watched this video a few weeks ago and have been better at practice. Thank you for the motivation and knowledge. You have made a difference for me. Your talent and skill have you ranked with my guitar heroes, Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins.

I watched this video a few months ago and took Justins advice to heart and tried to adopt his great technique. Started playing in the mirror like he said...went from there. Started with the basics of fingerpicking and didn't pay too much attention to what chord i was fretting...just as long as i was getting my pattern down right. Thing is.....3 or 4 months down the track and i'm fingerpicking Joni Mitchell songs and the dirtiest delta blues you ever heard...just let yourself learn -both brain, mind and body...just fingerpick like crazy. You will quickly start gaining the needed muscle memory and strength but you really need to work that pinky!!! Mine has basically been unemployed my entire life and so was, at first, absolutely weak and useless...but a few months down the track i am getting real confidence in lil' pinky and he's there lightning fast when i call...... This really does work peoples.

sunlight on the strings, is great, and it would also make a good song title.

Justin, I’ve been playing for 15 years and your 20 minute video corrected a problem I’ve had all along. I wasn’t anchoring my picking hand, and I could never get any volume. In just 20 minutes you have given me a whole new way to play. Thanks so much !!

I've never really felt comfortable using a pick when I play. I like using my hand and feeling the strings when I strum. As a beginner, you've got me excited about fingerpicking. I really appreciate these tips. Thank you, Justin, it's so cool to have a guitarist you admire show you how to play the guitar. 👍💖🎸😎
