i can play the notes before the singer enters i learned em by sound i sang the note then i went all over my (fender starcaster) guitar looking for that note
do i need a capo? is it essential for guitar playing?
wow… like coffee?
I actually think the use of the kapo for songs that don’t necessarily require it, is a good way for people to get the rhythm of the songs down and learn the general tune and how it sounds on the guitar down quicker. That way whomever is watching these videos can build upon what they learned from these videos and play more complex versions. Just my opinion. xP
hey check out my channel for some guitar tutorials. send me messages requesting songs and i will teach them
@yourguitarsage i actually liked your vids before that comment…
modest mouse ftw!
thats what she said
I never realized Float On had such a simple tune! Thanks!
what kind of guitar is that man, has a real sexy noise to it
it would help if i had tab for this.
yeah man. drugs are for losers!
@alanlarson42 No dude! Drugs are folks that can’t cope!
@TableAvocado
The wifey is a GREAT songwriter.
I can see him pulling out a bong and taking a huge rip halfway through
@ZanzaVirus I think its
Down, Down, Down, Up, Up, Down, Down
What’s the story on all the gold records?
That guitar has a great ring to it
I think the strum pattern goes down, down, down, up, down, up. But I’m not sure of that. If I am wrong, then please, someone correct me. Good luck ghillieman.
Do you need this to play the song or no? Trying to learn one before winter break is over, looked like a good enough one, but I don’t have the capo..
i have a project in guitar class to learn a song over winter break. i will use this….. but i cant get the ryhtem right………..
HAHAH!! I invented the frickin’ bar chord…but alas grasshopper many guitar players are beginners and don’t know how to play them which is why I teach these easier versions The open mind is the mind that continues to learn, the closed mind ceases to learn.
