This guitar lesson got weird (in a good way)
|
Hey Reader, I just dropped a new guitar lesson — and this one’s a little different. 🎸 It’s Bésame Mucho, the timeless Latin ballad we all know and love… This one’s part sketch, part serious lesson, and surprisingly educational. Expect a few laughs and a lot of musical insight.

What can I say - I like the guy. it's the guy who may have invented music theory all together! While he lays down the chords, I dive into a close-up solo breakdown — exploring the beauty behind this iconic melody. It’s playful, musical, and totally unforgettable. Stay playful, |

Hey Reader, A new guitar lesson today! 🎸 As I'm sharing it, I just keep humming - "Could You Be Loved".. song by Bob Marley with looping chords + changing scales, and a live interactive fretboard. I used the chords from the chorus to show how a melody or a solo can be developed from a simple idea and I've kept it short, under two minutes. To be clear, this is not a song cover - it's a pattern exploration and how different elements interchange throughout the song. Whether you’re here to try...
Hi Reader! A brand-new guitar arrived the other day in the studio — the Donner HUSH-I Pro (Hawaiian Blue edition) — and today I posted a full unboxing + sound test on YouTube. I was honestly surprised by how good this thing looks in person, and the plugged-in tone is better than I expected for a travel/silent guitar. If you’re curious what comes in the box and how it sounds straight out of the package, check it out here: 👉 Watch the video In the video I go through: 🎁 unboxing 🔧 quality +...
