Wondering if anyone has watched the well done guitar lessons on Youtube by the teacher that goes under the moniker "ShutUp & Play"?  He plays a Taylor 214ce Deluxe and also a GS Mini Koa.
I've had fun re-learning songs that I thought I knew, until watching his take on them.
He's a very good teacher and player, imo.

I agree !  I found him when I did a search for guitar tutorial on playing "in My Life".

I was going to look at that  also, but it got yanked due to copyright. He was just too accurate I suppose, as there's many  other Youtube lessons on that tune.

In my opinion he's the best out there to learn a song from.

Yes! Andy's site is one of my favorite sites to learn from.
I recently worked on his version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
My right hand is lacking so I had to adapt a version of my own.
Decided to record it using my new 714ce 12 Fret LTD.

I was just reading about a guy that had his Facebook account deleted for posting a cover of Hotel California and it reminded me of this. I guess Asylum haven't made enough money out of it yet!

I learned Over the Hills and Far Away, From the Beginning and Babe I’m Gonna Leave You with Andy’s lessons.  He is a great teacher and his versions are very accurate.

Yuip!  I have picked up some nice pointers from him, the man floating in darkness. 
He who loses money, loses much; he who loses a friend, loses more; he who loses faith, loses all.
