Double Stops For 1-4-5 In A Major For Guitar - Country Style

Thank you so much. For years I've practiced all of the fundamentals and just couldn't put them all together seamlessly. Your videos help me do that. I've learned the chords, learned that arpeggios, learned the scales, learned the triads, learned CAGED etc. Your videos are helping me put them all together. You are correct by not showing the detailed fingerings. People should learn the fundamentals then come check out these videos. If they need you to show the fingerings that's because they haven't put the time in. Thanks for keeping it at a level that shows how you think and how to stitch it all together. If you were to break it down even further you would just be wasting a lot of people's time. Thank you so much for not doing that and in fact doing the exact opposite and really focusing my time. If it's something unusual, I'm thinking Uncle Larry type chords here, then of course show the fingerings. I think you're striking a perfect balance. Love your videos keep it up!

Don’t start shit, and there will not be any shit. NO DISRESPECTING THIS MAN, PERIOD. His music feeds my soul.

Imagine the incredible self-loathing of the individual who leaves a negative comment on a channel that just tries to make you a better guitarist. Just gotta feel bad for those people.

And of course the opening riffs are nothing short of a master class in double stops and faux steel bends. Guthrie, you are a gem!

Thank you for all you do. I am a self taught guitarist, these videos help me learn and give me ideas of how to practice what I do know.

I’ll tell ya, if people are complaining you don’t zoom in or tell them exactly what note/fret you’re playing every second they need to go back in time a little and remember what learning this stuff was like before YouTube and the internet. We as the players need to put some work in! When I was first learning I used to record tv performances on VHS and have my face pressed against the old tube tv trying to figure out what guys were doing, what you’re showing us here is amazing and priceless FOR FREE! Thanks so much for your time and effort it’s greatly appreciated and inspiring to watch

Brother Trapp, I'm having so much fun learning from you. Such great “ideas” just enough self discovery without the spoon feeding is The Way. Props.

Mind blown! Finally all comes together. Thank you for NOT posting another “put your ring finger on the 4th fret, second string . . .” video up!!

These are top notch lessons, for FREE. Just listening to you play is a free lesson for any guitarist. I have learned so much from you. I'm 61 yrs old and am a sideman/guitarist in a few local bands. I have been playing since I was 12. The extra skills I am learning from you has been noticed by my peers. And has gotten me more gigs, requests to sit in, and studio work. You are never too old to learn more and see a different view of things that might open up a world of playing. These videos help so much when you sit in with a band and have to come up with a solo on the fly. I have used the CAGED system for years but I am really seeing the neck better than ever and rarely get lost, so much thanks to you. My advice, for what it is worth, to any of those having trouble or not getting things as fast as they want is to maybe listen and watch the video a couple times without playing. Absorb how G holds the guitar and how his hands are relaxed and efficient. Perhaps then before tackling the specific parts you want to learn and integrate, try to play the backing chords as he is playing to see how it relates to the music he is creating. You be the backup, and learn where he is going, trial by fire if you will. Mind timing, bending in tune, melody and chord structure rather than following the "Tablature" approach to which we all might rely on too much.

Dear Mr Trapp these videos hit me right where I am at and are transforming my relationship with the guitar. I so appreciate it thank you .

You make the average guitar player and even more advanced have to take the time to use the brain to break things down into more details. That helps each player to find their own style doing the work. We each have a different approach to how we do everything. I just stop the video and play back the things that are new to me or that I've not worked on enough. Been at this on and off for 50 years. At some points in time when time allows and I get inspired by someones playing I dive in and start really practicing again. The fingers don't take long to get back to where I may have been. It's the brain that needs the repetitions again. I just started watching your videos from catching you with Brett Papa the other day and your playing is so melodic. I've never had a problem with playing melodically and simply by ear. It was trying to have my brain keep pace with my playing ability. Breaking down your videos I've watched the past few nights have got me back hopefully in a consistent way and practice mode. Will be diving in more each day. Hopefully life and work doesn't pull me away too much. Was waiting until I retired to really get serious again, but maybe this will be the jump start I need.

I M ON A HEAVY HEAVY CRAZE OF PLAYING AND INCLUDING CHOPS SOUTHERN ROCK AND ROCK COUNTRY...LISTENING TO YOU AND OTHER COOL DUDES INSPIRE ME ....GOD BLESS YOU!!

CAGED system is finally starting to make sense to me thanks to how much you push us to focus on it.. cant thank you enough, good sir!

So happy you are deleting all the negative stuff !!! Keep up the great work !

Hey Guthrie, cheers from Germany. Never mind stupid comments. I learn a lot from you, thanks a lot for that. Love your playing! So beautiful.

I so wish I was closer to Nashville right now. I hope you kids know, Guthrie is a G.O.A.T in the making. Peace.

I don’t comment much . But want you to know I appreciate the hell out of you and guys like Tom

That guitar sounds just perfect every time you play it. No guitar you own has better tone. Great playing and great lesson as always. Thanks

Thanks for stressing the caged thing. After 44 years of playing , it all makes perfect sense now. I cannot unsee it. I even spend about 15 minutes of playing time naming each note . Thanks Guthrie very much. I'm no Danny Gatton . Lol

wow .. I ve played hard rock for 30+ yrs in bands .. Country players are so musical .. I love it and aspire to be able to play it .. You sir, are an inspiration. If anybody is dumb enough to make a negative comment .. Thats ignorant and ridiculous.. Keep up the phenomenal instruction.. I feel fortunate to have stumbled across your channel .. You and Andy Wood .. My favourites
