    Drue James - you are the best! You break things down and teach guitar in a simple to understand way. Thanks for taking the time to share this video. The BM chord is impossible for beginners, so the 3 chord version you share at the end is helpful. Great voice and smile. . . . please keep sharing tutorials. Any chance you can break down the guitar solo (especially the embellishments) in Landslide?

    I'll tell you what, I am far from anything other than an intermediate player. One of the first things I did was to force myself to learn barre chords... the F to be exact. Best thing I ever did...opened up SO many songs. It's a pain in the ass in the beginning but so rewarding. as far as getting from teh E to the Bm easily, I shape the E differently. I don't use my index finger. I shape the E with my middle, ring and pinky. When I need to go down to the Bm the shape is already there, I just have to drop my index. +Subbed

    I bought a guitar for my kids and promised they can each get a guitar of their own if they can play three songs. I decided I want to learn too. I've always loved this song (And I'm a metal fan) I stumbled on this post. Its good. I like it. I have a music background but not guitar. My fingers hurt so bad. But dang man, I almost got the easy version after about 30 minutes. (And you're a smooth teacher too)
