“Perfect” Guitar Tutorial – Ed Sheeran | Easy Fingerstyle Lesson

In our “Perfect” guitar tutorial, we show you how to play it exactly like Ed. Chord-wise it’s pretty simple, so we spend most of our time working on that fingerpicking pattern!

During the lesson I mention our eBook (which is free for all subscribers!) – You can use it to help you build a solid foundation: chords, switching, progressions, riffs, techniques… everything it takes to be a “good guitarist.” You can find it here: http://goodguitarist.com/learn-rhythm-guitar/

The chords used are: G, C, D, Em, D/F#. If you want to play along to the original recording, you’ll need to slap a capo on the 1st fret.

For those of you not interested in learning a fingerstyle pattern, we quickly show you a SUPER SIMPLE strumming pattern that sounds VERY close to the original. Then we show you which fingers to use, which strings to hit, and how to get the overall feel of the song – exactly like Mr Sheeran does it.

I hope you enjoy the lesson! I’m thinking of doing a classic next week, so stay tuned for that!
