Profoundly grateful to you Justin. I am convinced you were born with this talent of teaching. So easy to 'digest' what you impart. You exude humility always and are never presumptuous while tutoring. Warm regards from a seasoned, retired educator. Once again I am profoundly grateful for what you so selflessly share.

This helped me so much. it is so much easier to memorize and apply the one pattern and unlock all the other patterns from it. It was a bit tricky at first, but in a couple hours it wasn’t hard to move around the whole fretboard. i find it much easier to also go in and out of patterns along other string. Great lesson

Hey Justin - for those of us who are just now learning how to play the ukulele, could we requested a guided practice video on the chords most popular and well loved - that would be amazing!! Start out with a simple strum pattern for each chord and transition to the next chord (I think I would do the circle of fifths so it's at least musical sounding and pleasing to the ear to play). While we could easily practice this way on our own here at home, (Classically trained pianist here so I know how to practice on my own but I will tell you...) playing your videos and trying to play along is so much more fun for me these days. It's not only nice to hear the little reminders, but it's super fun to just play along with someone else and try to keep up rather than playing all by myself (total flashbacks of having to sit at the piano for hours and practice monotonous Hanon Virtuoso Pianist exercises out of my beloved yellow Schirmer book). LOL! Admittedly, I really did actually enjoy playing through that book but it just about killed me before I conquered it. Don't tell my piano teacher I ever said that... Also... think about it, if you put together a video like that, it is likely to get played numerous times over by thousands who are trying to practice and learn all their chords just like I am. That's an awful lot of extra passive income from one video alone... ;)

Im not knocking you justi, but ive been playing for three years now and the biggest light bulb moment for me was when I went through guitar grid mastery from Johnathon boyd. He teaches to think of the scales as numbers and feelings. Also the major scale has seven notes and seven patterns not five unless you’re using caged which you failed to mention. All the modes can be played buy using the same umbers system, just depends on which pattern of the three notes per string major scale you start with, ie natural minor is pattern six or starting from the six interval of the major scale. The most important thing I learned though was remembering that there ate seven notes in music within any key and that is all! If you play the major scale 3,4 and 1,7 are always a half step and the rest are whole steps. If you know what number your on on any particular string then you can move freely all over the place without needing to know every shape. I wish more people taught this. At the end of the day pianists for instance don’t need shapes or patterns to play music do they!

@@Add_Account485 hello I didn’t just blurt out my feelings. I also respect justin as a teacher. Like I said, I wasn’t having a go i am just frustrated with how complicated some and most tutors make learning guitar seem. Trust me ive watched them all and also payed for private tutors who i felt where just happy taking my money. I can honestly tell you hand on heart, as someone who prefers improvising instead of copying others, guitar grid mastery from jonathon boyds guitar freedom formula course along with what I already new is by far the best thing I have learned since I learned my chords and the usual minor pentatonic etc. My theory was almost there but now I feel I fully understand music. Weather its keys,modes,intervals, the guitar doesn’t seem as complicated as I thought. I appreciate your comment and opinion but i am just trying to help others see that music doesn’t need to be so difficult to understand. 👍🏻🎸 by the way i have no affiliation to anyone. Im just a guy trying to learn guitar.

@@Add_Account485 just re read your reply mate. And if what you say is true as I wouldn’t know as ive not purchased a course from justin but when I first picked up a guitar, he was the first person I watched. Anyway yes he’s showing you the right way. But what I have come to realise is that there are caged system teachers and three notes per string teachers neither are wrong. But the way i see it is that the three notes per string is the big brother of the caged system id say both are necessary but the caged system is just a way to lay the scale over the chord to make it easier on the fingers. But thats just my opinion, ive only been playing for three years but i have a brain and an opinion. There the same notes at the end of the day. If you lay the caged system over the three notes per string major scale. They are exactly the same but you will see that the caged is formed from the three notes per string in order to make things easier for chords etc. Just my opinion of course. And im sorry if you thought i was touting something, i assure you I wasn’t, i was just relating my own findings. Stick with justin mate 👍🏻👌🏻🎸
