I gotta say I’m very much enjoying the longer form content. I can tell that you’ve been putting in the effort.
Brandon D'Eon is the greatest teacher I've ever watched. Doesn't overcomplicate, but says it as it is.
"you're probably not that stupid". Brandon just gave us a backhanded compliment. But I know the REAL brandon would never do that. This is a video by big cigarettes made in order to get you comfortable. GET OFF THE CIGARETTES.

thx man. helped me a lot cuz I usually just play as many notes as I can and it sounds too "forgettable"
I was always mildly interested in your shorts when they happened to appear in my recommended, but since I despise short-form content I mostly stayed away. THIS RIGHT HERE IS TERRIFIC! I have never felt as motivated to get up and practice as I do now and the advice is solid. Keep it up
I love the new long form videos, keep up the amazing and hard work!
I can always take something away from your videos. you're a great teacher!! Cheers brandon 🎸🤘
These videos have been getting better and better specially the editing Keep it up
Been loving and learning a lot from these new longer vids, keep doing them pls 🙏
Dammmn, how is this man don't have a 10 million subs? I think is very f*cking good information, and I like that.
Probably the best guitar (not song) teacher on the internet.
Really appreciate you taking the time to tab out all your examples in these long form videos. It is incredibly helpful to hear the line, see you fingers, and be able to read along in tab. It helps solidify the shapes and I can learn even if I'm not holding my guitar.
Great, great lesson! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is some of the best content I’ve seen made specifically for building guitar skills and not only playing a ripoff solo or “how to play exactly like someone else shit”. It’s very much appreciated 💚 You can’t not love this

Signals Music Studio is another channel I highly recommend if you want to learn more about the music theory side of things.
Love these videos. It’s like having bonus content with the 52Week Guitar course!
I like these long videos. Thanks, Keep it up.
I like both this form of content and how you straight to the point
I do really like these longer videos ^^
I loved thank you very very helpful MORE PLEASE SIR
Still the best teach here. Brandon, thanks for the great detailed videos, you are awesome.
Great content
I liked the video. Gives good ideas for an intermediate player like myself stuck trying to solo!!
Excellent video to help me improvise solo better. Gotta get practicing those scales!
Brilliant! Loved this. Lots to take away and build awesome solos with. If I could just get off the cigarettes...
defo like the longer vids
Congrats to that guy who’s been asking Brandon to play Am every day
You are crazy. Very good.
Cool vid, will review frequently
Love the long format videos! Just found you and I’m learning a lot. I’m not as advanced as I need to be to even gain anything from the course sadly.
Man, I’ve been playing guitar for decades and never heard of you. What a breath of fresh air! Love the insults as they are correct. I’m guilty of playing the boxes and then my tricks, and repeating them. The sustained bend is just a way to dramatize what I’m about to do again. (This time, much faster and more impressive.) Yawn. I suppose some of us naturally know how to build tension and expectation, and know how to let the listener know it’s not at the breaking point yet. And I expect I’m not fooling anyone. But most times I do. It’s a bar, everyone is drunk and yes, cigarettes everywhere. So they’re easily impressed. I learned from you in just a few minutes what I hadn’t learned at all since the 70’s. Now it’s time to apply it before I keel over for whatever mysterious reason. For younger folks than I, you’re an honest Godsend my friend. You’re a phenomenal teacher. Keep up the great work. Just subscribed.

i suggest you to watch his video of twelve days ago, How to Improvise Solos on Guitar THE HARD WAY (which is not hard, just needs consistency)
I like your content 🔥🔥✌🏻
Man... Just want to say. I'm an amateur bassist (GASP!) and I never miss one of your videos. Amazing content! Keep it coming
Really enjoyed the video Brandon! I’ve been playing awhile,(30+years), and I still learn new stuff! I enjoy your teaching style and appreciate you helping these f@ckin noobs!😅
Good job 👏 👍 👌 🙌 😄 😀
Brandon you are a bad ass bro! I really love the way you explain things, you are black and white, because you tell it like it is don't ever change 😂
This is really a step up in quality. You didn't even see the typo in this vid! It all meakes sense. i humbly request a video on how to learn to play 16th speed like that.
Shiiii this Is a good video
dam the more i know the more there is to know and im hungry for knowledge. im surprised on how easily i understood! guitar journey through the roof!!

I want to be able to play slow but really melodic Solos like Knocking on heavens Door
The second solo had to be the more composed one but damned if I wasn’t enjoying the hell out of it.. Keep doing the long form videos.. it works…
Yeah, please keep doing it,I like the good cop/bad cop approach. I respond quite well to vitriolic random insults, much better than the Mr nice guy thing. The content is pretty damn good, uniquely so, even my dense brain is absorbing some of it. I can't insult you back, you're too good a player (Grrrr...)
1:45 💀😂👌🏼
Hey brandon..Is it possible to bend upto 3 semitones on the high E string in a Stratocaster without breaking the string???In my Yamaha pacifica ..on bending 3 half steps the high E string breaks...
3:11 is so accurate😂
Hello, I’ve been playing guitar for 2 weeks now. I wanted to ask if u can recommend me a plan how I should practice. I have now learned the basic accords and can play a bit “Hey Joe by Hendrix” Could u give me please a tip how I can best use the 1 hour a day ?? Because sometimes it feels like iam playing around and it has no real use. Thanks 🙏🏻
Oh C’mon! You all are perfectly capable of writing solos such as Stairway to Heaven and Hotel California or Sultanas of Swing and That Smell double lead guitar parts in harmony and unison such as No One Like You These solos are no problem whatsoever for you. Right? 😂 ❤

9:20 I think the second one is composed. Hard to tell. It seems to follow more of a formula to sound good on a record
I'm glad I don't need to escape the pentatonic box. Cause I can't even improvise anything in it... which might be a bigger issue... BUT STILL😂😂

did he finally play A minor?
I come here to get yelled at. If I get better at guitar in the process, it's like icing on the cake. 😂😜
im self taught and i was playing diagonally without even knowing it
A lot of intermediate players struggle to play diagonally…BECAUSE THEIR ON CIGARETTES! 😂😂
I tried this but had premature cool down.
The solo of Lux Æterna gives me tension but no release.
I actually kinda liked the part where you were playing "wrong notes..." to each their own I suppose... For me I think the main thing is losing the rhythm and groove of the song-if you lose that then even "right" notes won't sound good!
My guitar isn't out of tune, I'm just adding microtonal embellishments to create tension
ALL GUITARISTS SMOKE CIGARS, NOT CIGARETTES DO YOUR HOMEWORK
Are you on the run? There is a certain restlessness in your way of talking that takes away some quality...
Hey, I'm not stupid. Jk, I totally am
Why you dont have 4 million subs is beyond me. People are stupid, I blame cigarettes.
but this didnt help me get off the FOOKIN cigarettes Brandon

I just cancelled TikTok....
Both versions of the 1st solo sucked there was no tension and definitely no resolve. Not sure if you are the one to be trying to show how to phrase melodicly when you don't have any melody sorry bud get better !
tldr: solos aren't just notes, they're songs within songs, and songwriting and storytelling ability apply to solos as well. also learn more scales and get better at playing lol noob
You would make a good drill instructor with all that shouting.
