WARNING: This is a long video and I will be doing lots of talking. If you can't hold your focus for 30m while I explain some key topics that will increase the likelihood of you actually succeeding on guitar then you probably don't have what it takes to stick with guitar long-term anyway and should probably quit right now...

Now assuming you're not a little quitter and you actually want to stick with guitar long enough to get good at it, watch this video to the end! The first 15m is me explaining a whole new approach to learning songs that you can use to play ANY chord-based song from day 1. The second half of this video is me showing you how you can use this approach to learn Hotel California by The Eagles.

If you're really too ADHD to focus on this lesson then use the chapter markers below to jump ahead as needed but please FOR THE LOVE OF GUITAR make sure you watch this video all the way to the end, doing so will change your life for the better.

What I originally had in the video description before I opted for a rant-style intro

A recent study by Fender found that 98% of people who start learning how to play guitar quit within the first 12 months.

This alarming statistic highlights the fact that there is something seriously wrong with the approach most people take when learning guitar.

In this video, I present you with an alternate system for learning guitar that will ensure you become one of the 2% that never give up and stick with guitar long enough to become good at it!

Buckle Up Buckaroos because It's going to be a long video (I'm trying to change the paradigm of modern guitar education and introduce an entirely new system for learning) so bear with me.

EDIT I found the original article and it mentions that 90% of learners quit in the first 12 months rather than the 98% figure I originally stated. I apologise for this oversight. You can read the full article below:
