Hey there, friends! In this guitar lesson I'll teach you an acoustic-friendly version of Yellow Ledbetter, the Hendrix-inspired Pearl Jam song from 1992.

For the absolutely classic intro riff, I'll show you how to cut a few corners so you can capture Pearl Jam's sound in a bit more of a beginner-friendly manner. Likewise, for the chord shapes (E, B, and A) I'll show you some clever-yet-easy-to-play open voicings which similarly make things easier to pull off. This is one of my absolute favorites, and I hope you enjoy!
