An acoustic guitar lesson on how to play “Ramble On”, by Led Zeppelin. For such a mellow tune, this one is actually pretty hard to play well and takes a lot of energy. It’s one of my favorite Zeppelin songs. Once you learn how to play this you’re gonna want to play it everyday! It’s a great example of Jimmy Page’s offbeat and unique guitar style. Especially those “jazz” chords he plays in the pre-chorus! Great song, great guitar player, great band. I hope you get something out of the lesson.
The guitar I’m playing here is a Taylor 214ce koa deluxe. I really like this guitar, it intonates amazingly well and it’s tone is very balanced. It’s also very easy to play.
The strings are Elixir phosphor bronze 12-53 with nanoweb coating. These strings are a little bit more expensive, but for me they easily last 4-5 times longer than non coated strings.
Folks may be surprised at how much time and effort goes into creating these videos. If you’re getting something out of the lessons and can afford to contribute to the cause, I’ve setup a Paypal link. If you can’t afford it no worries, but if you can, any amount is appreciated and will help me to continue to make the videos.

Man o man, this is killer! Thank you so much, you are really the best on
YouTube! Every single tutorial you do is so extensive and amazing. Can’t
say thanks enough! -buddy
Wow you rock brother! Nice tutorial. Hoping to nail this down thanks to
you! Awesome!
dont get me wrong brother that was great! Very well explained Very, Very
well demonstrated thanks for the attention to detail…i get the most
watching it with no guitar… an hour later i got a different slant on the
arrangement for a song i knew..mandolin parts incorperated great too good
job!
:)
I think you are the best guitar chanel of youtube !
Excellent tutorial! Awesome in breaking it down to clear and logical
parts. Great guitar sound too! Thank you, sir!
you are a MASTER of intonation, voicing, rhythm, subtle nuance, tonality,
theory…………I will be working on this soon.Jimmy Page would be
honored for you to tutor his art…….Im honored that you’ve broken down
his tune
Best tutorials on the net for sure. The only thing I’d add if I were you is
maybe some chord charts. Especially for this song, it’s hard to pick out
when you’re hitting sometimes.
Do a Going To California tutorial please!!!
I have been playing this song for more years than i care to
remember…lol….but you taught me a couple of extra licks in here that i
very much appreciate…many thanks!
Great techniques are taught here and in all of his lessons. Please continue
to add more songs. You Rock!
Great, great lesson! You guys really can’t complain. This the most
comprehensible, complete and cool lesson for this song. If you struggle
with sus chords, 7ths and so, press pause and get them down first, cause
once you get the ball rolling it’s challenging but not impossible. It’s not
a beginners song anyway
Just awesome!
it would be great if you showed the electric guitar parts that go with the
acoustic songs as well. my ears just don’t hear like they used to.
Watching this at half speed is hilarious. You sound totally smashed! Great
video, thank you!
Stay tuned for more vids. Darn tooten I will…10+ tutorilals… Thanks so
much.. Peace JR..
This is a blast to play! Thank you.
Killer lesson… I have subscribed …. Thanx loads!
Goosebumps . That is all.
you are actually making me a pretty damn good guitar player. thanks!
Greetings from Brasil!!!
good lesson, great in the explainations it helps me(or us) to you use our
ears rather than depending on tab.dont get me wrong tab is great for the
learning process but learning music through our ears is a must that I come
to learn later thanx for covering all the basics and as always great job!
Nice sound. What pick are you using?
Dude. Really? Banged my head for a long time trying to figure out the
intricate parts that make his playing so special. Thanks. Christmas
contribution coming your way. Well…if I can actually play it.
Wow your guitar playing sounds amazing
Hey Mate, just gotta say, I watched this till the end. :} u are a good
teacher, researched your stuff really well… thank you thank you.
Awesome thanks for posting this
That was incredible and your guitar sounds great. How long have you been
playing? Great video
If you’re having trouble with that EMajor7 chord I just put my index on the
2nd fret A string and pinkie/ring finger on the 4th fret B and E string
while muting the D and G strings and it sounds fine! I did that cause I
can’t stretch my hand out like that.
This is a nice tutorial. I have several transcriptions from Alfred and IMP
and both transcribe the pre-chorus as E F#m7 (G#m7 or D/E), but it does
appear to be a first inversion A and B, so kudos for noticing. I’d love to
hear the separated tracks that you mentioned if they are from the original
recording. It’s a nice song and worth playing correctly.
This has renewed my desire to pick up my guitar often. Very good tutorial!
And very good playing. Thank you from Iowa. Great tune!
Just discovered your channel and loving all the lessons. I’m looking to
buy a steel string acoustic. What brands/models do you recommend for
someone on a budget? Thanks in advance and keep up the great tutorials.
What you called a e 9th sus is in fact a Em9
What string gauge?
You’re awesome
i love your tone man, i’d like those strings too
great playing
Fantastic tutorials mate !! Much appreciated.
Dude … you need a tip jar !! thanks for peeling back the Lotus !
Thanks man, you put so much pasion playing and teaching , this help me a
lot!
You got this! This is by far the best (in my opinion) tutorial on “Ramble
On” I’ve seen on the internet. Many thanks for the great lesson. As a
beginner I really appreciate this.
Keep Rockin
O.M.G. ( Wow ) I have Never seen a Guitar Lesson this ” Thorough, Exact &
Complete ” – I always loved this Led Zeppelin Song, and have been playing
” A Modified Version ” – Thanks, for really-breaking-it-down. It makes you
appreciate
The Genius of Jimmy Page. Really subtle . . . yet Complex. – Michael Caz –
Songwriter / Musician / Producer – NYC
super cool
Just perfect!!!
Awesome
Great lesson. Your attention to detail takes a good cover and makes it a
great cover. Looking forward to seeing what else you have out there. Not
it’s time to RAMBLE ON…
Dug it much. Nice bone tone. I probably would have rolled off that treble
knob on the guitar a bit and left in some bass….but I am listening on my
laptop. I play a 414 ce, that one looks like mahogany on the video.
Thanks for doing the research.
Dude, you get great recorded guitar sounds!
Whats the guitar/amp etc????
I can’t believe how good these lessons are. Really fantastic
Great guitar lesson. I have never played some of those chords and am really
enjoying the challenge. Thanks so much for teaching me how to play one of
my favs.
