The cutest guitar lesson ever! I've been watching your content and learning a lot, Laruen! You're amazing! Well, the topic number 6 makes me wonder: easy C chord without that beautiful fat C note on 5th string?

Lauren, I want to thank you for I am almost 71 never played or even had a guitar which I purchased a Steel Acoustic about two months ago and was trying to learn just the cords and up to this point I was totally frustrated and ready to have a bon fire in the back yard

Comment from : Stephen Heintz

Hi Lauren Although I've been playing off & on for 30 years (my career took priority) It seems I've developed some bad playing habits that I'm working through now that I've retired Also working on finger picking I've been enjoying your great gift for teaching & your videos & wanted to say thanks
Comment from : Dennis Gamble

Jeff Healey Canadian artist was blind and still played the guitar so anyone can learn the one thing I'm having trouble with remembering which cord is what but I will eventually get it
Comment from : Lloyd Edwards

I’m 49 in my journey and thank for your great advise

Comment from : Marc Cracchiolo

Lauren brHi from a hot NE Thailand brThanks brA great vid for us oldies ✌🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🙏🌈👍
Comment from : Keith Skelton

Lauren, I love your teaching style and you are already helping me improve You probably get a lot of song tutorial requests so I wondered if you could consider doing a tutorial for ‘My Boat’ by Melissa Laveaux - I think it would make a great lesson and I cannot find anyone who has put a tutorial together on that song

80/20 only 80 copper has less conductivity than the 92 Copper in Phosphorus Bronze: Nylon is the least conducive Less electrical energy running through the body with Nerve Damage helps!

Comment from : SusanDavid LiveLoveLife

Loving your videos! I'm in my 50s and recently bought an electric guitar I played a bit in high school, but I have forgotten nearly all of it in the past 40 years, so I also really needed to hear to not go for perfection, and that it would all come in time Thank you!
Comment from : Roxi Sinister

Is it possible to learn guitar if your deaf?

Comment from : Clyde Ortego

Thank you Lauren
Comment from : Michael Zsizseri

This very real presentation of what it takes to learn an instrument is soo good I've had tendonitis in my hands for 30 years I was inspired by this video, so I just bought some extra light strings for my acoustic! Probably will sound a bit tinny, but hell, I haven't played for years so that may be the least of my problems!brbrThank you for the encouragement!brbrRock on Gen X!
Comment from : Andrew Scotton

I am 70 years old and come from a musical family I learned to play piano in school and learned how to play Autoharp during the Covid lockdown I am now learning to play guitar via YT videos and am so happy I can across your channelI've been doing he finger exercises and they do work Thanks so much!!

Comment from : Scott Mcatee

Thanks for the great tips I am returning to the guitar after years Your videos have energized me to try for consistency and brevity I am stubborn and a retired soldier We are trained to work through the pain and if you don't succeed at first, keep trying until you do Your method makes more sense to me Play to enjoy and grow Again thank you

Thanks for this video One small remark on exponential improvement: if you improve by 1 each week, you'll actually be 68 better after 52 weeks (101^52), not 52 😊
Comment from : Andreas Grünbacher

You’re a good teacher I’m just fifty one years old I like learn to play guitar for my fun
Comment from : Manosha Cooray

Very inspirational video brBeing 56 and went back at guitar after 30 years at 50 the struggle is real! brBut… just nitpicking: if you get 1 better every week, that’s 68 better after a year, mathematically speaking😊

John Cougar Mellancamp says "Play Guitar"
Comment from : Nina

I was on a week long holistic Holiday vegan cruise One neurologist physician spoke of how learning to play a musical instrument is a great way to help build new neurons in the brain Learning is living!
Comment from : Nina

Excellent
Comment from : Saangi Vines

62 years old I have played for many years, but this advice still applies Needless to say, I do not shred anymore It is like starting over again, so do not feel bad for starting late Age has a way of leveling the playing field
Comment from : Mark Freeman

I’m 73 and started playing again 11 years ago I started with lighter strings, but now I’m able play with heavier gauge strings now I play a baritone guitar now that has 16-70 gauge strings now

Give me those 2 finger chords, that's good enough for me ❗😎
Comment from : c0uchsl0uch

Slow learning isn't always an age thing My teenage son and I got our guitars around the same time 13 months later I am learning and playing songs I like I'm 53 but I just love my guitar and love 80's music My 15 yr old son is still one string playing He bought himself a bass over the summer and seems to like it better than a regular guitar I pick his bass up once in a while, I might mess with a bass line I know but I quickly set it down and grab my guitar In my second year of learning I like reading and watching videos about music and guitar theory I like and follow advice for new guitar players There are tons of ideas on YouTube channels I don't have money or time to schedule classes with an in person guitar teacher I watch channels like this
Comment from : Brian Partlow

I am in late 30's but i am stuck at pick makes too much sound when playing Any solution please
Comment from : Marketing and Promotions

Good tips, also (covered a bit in tip 4), buy a guitar that is easy to play, nothing worse than a guitar that fights u They don't have to be expensive at all nowadays Find somebody who plays guitar well and go buy the guitar together if possiblebrBuy a classical guitar, u don't have to press that hard on the strings, it helps with finger stretching exercise ( it will fight u but in a good way) and when u switch back to the acoustic guitar, it will feel more easy to play it Also classical guitar sound is heaven for the ears (imo)
Comment from : JustOneSecond

Comment from : Tony Simpson

how can i enroll your guitar lessons Ma'am?
Comment from : Enrico Dajao Salutan

I'm 39 and I've got a bit of arthritis thing is I feel it started with guitar I've been playing for a year and a half and I am obsessed I probably practice like 2 hrs a day I had to stop playing today because my wrist and fingers (joints) were too sore These are good tips, but there is a sense of regret not learning when I was younger, and I feel like I need to catch up so I have time to get good I want to get really good so I can play any song if I put the time in So, it's been frustrating not being there yet, but I am indeed loving the journey I just hope my fingers can hold up I like the way you make things simple, so you've got a subscriber in me
Comment from : Mark Baker

Would you recommend acoustic or electric for a beginner in their 50’s? I love Mark Knopfler and dire straits There ar3 so many guitar sounds I love it’s hard to know where to begin!
Comment from : Traveller473

Hi guitar Mom! Please show this man the alternate, easy way to play the F, C and B chords🙂
Comment from : Ray Ford

Comment from : John Mongkhounsavath

What a wonderful person and teacher you are! I'm 50 and after learning guitar briefly years ago in college (I was playing a 3/4 and have small hands, now find a full size more comfortable), I am relearning for me, not for a grade in school I have arthritis as well and am hoping my love of music will help ease some of the pain Thank you so much for being so compassionate and encouraging :)
