Added 2023-11-26 17:00:06 +0000 UTCIn this lesson we'll be going into how you can create tension, emotion, and feeling to tell a story with music!
Hope you all find this helpful!
Next week we'll be looking more into the songwriting aspect so get ready for that...

For people who still struggle with the bar cords, I found this video very useful: https://youtu.be/qPJKtFi2PmQ?si=QDHKKvlg2xJcgeaf

2024-01-04 01:38:04 +0000 UTCI don't play the guitar, but I have very much enjoyed the guitar lessons for Jenny's tale!

2023-12-31 21:45:50 +0000 UTCI listen to this song everyday. I love it all 3 of them! Violets tale is my favorite! I like listen ing to you explain things. There's like a real calming effect in the way you speak. Its Very cool.π I almost wish I had a guitar to play although my fingers have a hard time reaching all the strings just right. It's hard to push the strings all the way without making the other strings go down too. So I suppose I'll just stick to violin π» lol. But my goodness I could listen to you speak all day! π₯°π€

2023-12-11 02:19:32 +0000 UTCThanks man. Cool lesson.
2023-12-06 20:45:16 +0000 UTCThis was a great video Ren, cheers for sharing it with us! I've been so busy that I've not yet been able to finish part 2! So having part 3 now will give me several productive hours to put them all together. Dissonance in the right places is my favourite thing in music so I love your use of this to convey the appropriate emotion at the end. And yet that major 7th chord before it is so dreamy π₯°Music is just the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you Ren π
2023-12-04 10:13:00 +0000 UTCI just found out that the "mystery" chord is named Am6... :
2023-12-01 22:18:18 +0000 UTCloving it. β€οΈπ
2023-12-01 10:31:40 +0000 UTCI dont.play a musical instrument but I am actually enjoy watching these would.love.to see.videos of.fans that have picked it up from your.lessons
2023-12-01 02:54:48 +0000 UTCBeautiful!
2023-11-30 19:28:16 +0000 UTCIf you would like others to see as well. I'd post it in the "Share your Music" tab in the Discord. Or hell. Just send it to me. Where and whenever you want to

2023-11-29 08:50:58 +0000 UTCWill do - where should i post it?
2023-11-29 08:31:54 +0000 UTCI'm willing to bet that If We all suggested or said told him he would would make an amazing teacher, Ren would reply with he's too ADHD for that. But as an adult with ADHD and GAD, with a 17 yr old extremely intelligent son who has ADHD to the max, I think he would be amazing as a teacher especially with ADHD adolescents. I don't play guitar neither does my son but we can sit here through these little videos mesmerized and zoned in

2023-11-29 00:24:29 +0000 UTCLove the optimism of headphone wearing past Fi π. Guitar playing present Fi is laughing a lot and swearing a bit. Still, you canβt condense boy to man guitar fiend into 3 lessonsβ¦.
2023-11-28 21:00:22 +0000 UTCSo, are you doing requests ? I would love patience next π. There are no tabs or tutorials out there that look like what you did all those years ago. Itβs exquisitely simple yet so hard!!!! This week - palm muting is my nemesis, and I thank you for bringing it into my life!
2023-11-28 20:24:15 +0000 UTCI'd love to hear whatever you have. Or whenever you feel comfortable. It's such a cool way to learn, so id love to see it in use.
Allen Benedict
2023-11-28 20:21:43 +0000 UTCOh Iβm trying, and loving it, not sure discord wants to hear me yet! The palm muting is my nemesis this week!
2023-11-28 20:19:52 +0000 UTCAbsolutely love watching these. Iβve never played guitar and with neuropathy in my hands, not sure I ever will be able to, but still love watching. You make it look so effortless. I could watch you perform for hours! Thanks for these videos β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
2023-11-28 07:19:56 +0000 UTCThis was a fab lesson, I'm a tad unwell at the moment so can't hold my guitar, but watching is just as dope. I would be offended if you weren't asked to write an intro song for a Bond movie - that would be so sikkk!
2023-11-27 20:05:44 +0000 UTCAlso great lesson:)
2023-11-27 13:15:09 +0000 UTCSo Ren, I have not played since I was 13, 14. What would you recommend to purchase as a first guitar???
2023-11-27 13:08:50 +0000 UTCmy, thank you. I like watching your lessons. If you have enough time any day, you really should give lessons professional.
2023-11-27 10:59:31 +0000 UTCEnd chord is I believe a Minor major 7. Commonly known as the 007 chord
2023-11-27 10:02:27 +0000 UTCI love these lessons, even though I don't play guitar. They still give interesting insight into the song, and I just like listening to you play.
2023-11-26 23:39:23 +0000 UTCnot at all! finally had the time to sit down and do the first tutorial today π learned it, but defo need way more practice to play at speed and to finesse the last run. second tutorial... urgh, barre chords. i'm fine with the arpeggios but my dainty lil' index finger cried out after a bit so i continued with a capo >_< barre chords always have been the bane of my existence, but these lessons are encouraging me to stretch outside my comfort zone-- which is always a good thing. onwards, comrade! pace is relative and comparison is the thief of joy <3
2023-11-26 22:51:32 +0000 UTCI love these. I don't know if you know but it is so special to share these things with us. What I take from these each time has been more subtle or general as to the approach to music and I have found myself getting back into better technique and comfort with the freedom of the instrument. Using the key notes and not sweating over a wrong exact note here or there, but creating the feeling I want. Thank you for doing these.
2023-11-26 22:48:06 +0000 UTCThanks Ren ! Learning so much x
2023-11-26 22:47:26 +0000 UTCBrilliant thanks Ren π
2023-11-26 22:32:48 +0000 UTCThese lessons are like the MG riddles...y'all on lesson 3, I'm still working out 1... π
2023-11-26 22:05:30 +0000 UTCYeah, very helpful! Excellent lesson, thx ππ»
2023-11-26 20:33:02 +0000 UTCOk, I know that room. You are playing left handed.
2023-11-26 20:20:32 +0000 UTCSo cool you take the time to do this for your guitar playing followers. What a gift! Generous Renβ£οΈ
2023-11-26 20:16:56 +0000 UTCalso, learned a new word: plectrum π«
2023-11-26 19:40:30 +0000 UTCIβm blown away that so few chords can do so much. Seeing how the nuances of techniques like the palm muting can make such a huge tonal impact is super interesting. Loving this series!
2023-11-26 19:33:10 +0000 UTCYour voice sounds effortless and beautiful, as always. I donβt play guitar but loving these
2023-11-26 19:11:23 +0000 UTCoh man, the antici... pation! the incorporation of songwriting elements and flow versus straightforward technical tutorial was both rengaging and refreshing. love a good mystery chord-- dissonance and semitones can create such mystical sounds. really looking forward to part iv Ω©(^βΏ^)ΫΆ
2023-11-26 19:01:17 +0000 UTConce you build up tendon strength and some callouses, endurance improves! <3
2023-11-26 18:44:06 +0000 UTCIs there anyone that does play guitar and has been following along? If so could you make a video and put it on Discord maybe? I'd love to see someone playing it. If so please let me know if you post it.
Allen Benedict
2023-11-26 18:42:49 +0000 UTCThanks for the insights, Ren! Do you have a preferred set off nylon strings brand/type? I started in the Spring with standard tension, but changed them out a couple of times; now, liking the Savarez high-tension better than the other choices so far....
2023-11-26 18:42:20 +0000 UTCKeep at it Janice, youβll get there π
2023-11-26 18:23:05 +0000 UTCAlso watching this with headphones and no guitar in hand - canβt wait to have some free time to play along. Looks totally doable, you are a genius to put all these elements together and create a masterpiece
2023-11-26 18:16:24 +0000 UTCI donβt even play guitar but Iβm so invested π₯°
2023-11-26 18:08:16 +0000 UTCI donβt even play guitar, but find this so incredibly interesting. Thanks, Ren!π₯°
2023-11-26 18:00:38 +0000 UTCYou are such a good teacher. :)

2023-11-26 17:49:14 +0000 UTCLove it, thank you!

2023-11-26 17:38:40 +0000 UTCThis is so insightful Ren. Still aways from vid 3 but knowing this is waiting for me is mega incentive to keep going!! Thanks man π
2023-11-26 17:33:35 +0000 UTC'we can do this little cheeky chord' π€£π€©π₯°ππππ I love this
2023-11-26 17:30:42 +0000 UTCIt looks soo easy. Thx Ren
2023-11-26 17:27:59 +0000 UTCThese are the type of topics that fascinate me the most. Psychology, leading and guiding people, evoking states and experiences.
2023-11-26 17:24:56 +0000 UTCThankyou once again iv seen so many guitar based reactors talk about this so really looking forward to trying to play it π β€
2023-11-26 17:22:43 +0000 UTCI'm being a rude dinner guest right now so I'm going to have to watch this later... absolutely can't wait! Thanks Ren and team βΊοΈπ
2023-11-26 17:21:40 +0000 UTCThanks for sharing π₯°
2023-11-26 17:15:47 +0000 UTCThank you for sharing! β€οΈ
2023-11-26 17:13:27 +0000 UTCI'm curious...... Do your fingers get sore?
