In this video, I want to walk you through the steps I took to learn John Mayer’s insane acoustic fingerstyle technique.
Over the past twenty years, John Mayer gifts us with amazing music.
I love his music and approach to songwriting more than his incredible abilities on the guitar.
Mayer can play electric and acoustic guitar incredibly well, and in this video, I want to focus on his approach to fingerstyle guitar.
John Mayer’s fingerpicking technique is unique. He only plucks the strings with just two fingers (the thumb and index finger), yet his groove is insane. In this video, I tried to learn the fingerpicking pattern of his song NEON.
I then played the pattern over a different chord progression.

In this video, I will show you five guitar exercises I practiced when I was a beginner.
My dad bought me my first guitar when I was around ten years old.
Back then, you could only learn guitar with a local teacher or at the Conservatory of Music.
Since I was so young, we decided to hire a classical guitar teacher.
All the exercises you will see in this video come from classical music. Some of these exercises have beautiful chord progressions, and melodies and they are among the most popular classical guitar exercises for beginners.
We will explore five different classical guitar books.
In this lesson, I will show you how to play an awesome chord progression on the electric guitar.
The awesome thing about this chord progression is that it is played with the fingerstyle technique. Yes indeed! Electric guitar player with the fingerstyle technique.
One of the things that I love about fingerstyle is that it can be such a versatile technique. In fact, we can use it to play this awesome pop chord progression on electric guitar.
In this lesson, I am going to show you how to make a chord progression busy by expanding the harmonic and melodic possibilities of a chord. We will start with a simple ii V I VI chord progression.
We will then fill in the gaps between each chord with beautiful passing chords.
You will learn Min9, 7, 13, 6/9, Altered chords, and more.
