marty, watching, learning and liken your lessons.
one question- you say round 10 mins to take in info, but can i practice till my hand kills and fingers say no more?

@mattybock thank you buddy. I tried this pattern again yesterday and it was better than before… However, I thought Marty also tabbed the D-String with his middle finger… hadnt seen that I was actually wrong. So now it is better without having to use the middle finger.
I didnt quite understand the pattern you described.

@AlligatorJack01 your wrist should not be be hurting dude. experiment with using other fingers to fret the needed notes. byw, this pattern (when sped up and played in the key of C), is what carried the king himself through his carreer (Chuck Berry). the basic pattern is regular-regular-pinky move-regular, but you play it slower and go regular-pinky-regular-pinky and get the maybelline rhythm, just remember to lift your fingers after the strum.

ok. I’m a beginner. Trying to play this. It works kind of, however, my wrist hurts like shit. How do I do it better?
Is there maybe a better position to hold my guitar.. or.. something like this so that it wont hurt? Or will my wrist get used to it after a while?

Marty you are the only teacher i go to. your the best i’ve seen on youtube. THANKS!

I can’t get my hand in that position.. I don’t have small hands or anything, just normal. But still, I can’t get my pinkie all the way over there were it needs to be and make it sound good at the same time. is there an excercise for this or something? or a little trick?

wow mano me perese admirado pork lo haces perfecto casi! te lo escribi en espanol para k aprendas un poquito y tambien para k sakes una canion en espanol la k sea estoy seguro que escogerias una de santana pork te gusta el estilo de el se nota..nice really nice

@musicbymicky it is very normal for beginners, you learn to love the ache. it usually means your on to something good.

great lesson, very descriptive, thanks.
i have a question though. whenever i try to play this blues rhythm guitar pattern, my hand on the fretboard cramps up, my wrist hurts, and my hand feels stiff for ages afterwards. is this normal for beginners, or am i having a harder time than i need to be and i’m doing something wrong?

Want to come to my channel and learn some guitar

you know he is good because he has a beard and wears a hat

@johnnyboye11 Amen to that, bro

Hi !
(I’m french so if my English is not good, please forgive me)
I wanted to ask if it is necessary to take over guitar lines or others to know how to improvise a solo? Or can you teach yourself?
Thank you for answering (:!

awesome ,dude.
give us more on here.

Marty..dude u are the best teacher man wicked bro

As a beginner in this art of of playing the blues (and I should say in this art of playng the guitar), I think the most important is try to feel the rhythm, to get it and bring it inside the hands, the head, the heart… but, above it all, feel the pleasure of playing and have fun!!!!

Thanks Marty for your help!!!!!

Love you Marty!
