Jack, I watch a ton of personalities on YT about guitar. You channel is just tops. Crystal clear lessons with awesome ideas. Thanks for talking in note relationship being "The 3rd, the 5th, the b3, etc" instead of play fret 15 on the G string nonsense. Quality stuff. You open the mind.

You are the first teacher let mixolydian make sense to me! Thank you

Thanks so much for a lesson you did not give 😊. I was listening to your lesson sound only and got the middle finger thing BUT I applied it in a totally different way that gave me a massive positioning inside into mixo. I have to give you 50% of the discovery...

You probably have the most underrated guitar channel on KZfaq. Your lessons are always chock full of tasty tidbits my friend, I'm incredibly grateful for you! Don't stop with the vids please!

Hands down the absolute best guitar instruction on KZfaq. Congrats and thank you!

I would ordinarily think of D mixolydian as an altered D major scale (b7) or a G major scale starting on D. This opened a whole new way to look at this with a different approach. I can’t wait to play around with this and incorporate it into my musical vocabulary. Thanks!

Plzzz more videos like this tailored specifically towards mixolydian-truly a game changing mode used in so many great guitar songs. Big fan, Jack, and as always, righteous tone, brother.

Absolute stunner of a visual conceptualization. I'd love to see more lessons in this shape-based approach. Thanks much!

Great lesson. One thing I do now is that, like a bank robber, before I get on a new chord and a scale position. to play on it, I immediately look for an exit left of that pattern and on to the right. If the chord stays for a few measure, the escape will be for posutuon s of the same scale or mode. if it plays only one measure and got to a second chord, then I look for exits linked to the next chord. For a blues I would play the 1 but my exit routes would be for the 4. I know that this killer lesson. is not exactly about this... but I can steal plenty of cross over material. Great tone and playing by the way. Reminds me a bit of the singing tone of Eric Johnson. Jake, I think you could have a killer run of posts regarding that concept or algo: identify chord, identify scale or cage fragment positio. Quick look to. the next chord to see the distance in terms of measures. Then map 1 or 2 escape routes to the left or right, adjacent tto the pattern you are in. if the chord changes quickly, use the NY F.. You All finger method to go to the next chord and its scale. If it is for example a slow change on a jazz blues or a dead slow jam, show how to escape into that same mode. Way too many of us got trapped in pentatonic boxes at the same spot, unable to escape the box at will musically.

Mr. Jack, Thanks for this one! Was watching this before I went to bed (Didn't have a guitar in my hand lol) and as soon a you introduced the 4th chord arpeggio on top of the 5th chord, a light bulb went off. I didn't even need to play to understand. Just started on this Dead journey about a year ago and glad I found you and Michael Palmisano. You two have completely changed the way I approach and play the guitar. Thanks! PS once I get some scratch up, I'll be emailing you for some lessons.

the best teacher on youtube 🤘. would be awesome if you did a lesson on how to jam on a single chord(like fire on the mountain b chord)

Dude this is awesome stuff thank you I can't wait to go home and utilize those patterns

Jack, just as useful as your first excellent treatise on MIXOLYDIAN...your strat is clear and articulate..notes have body...very nice.

This is f^cking brilliant! Change gears if you must but keep stuff like this coming on the channel. Loving the office hours.

This is so helpful! Thank you!!

NY shape...got the ways and means

You are an excellent teacher!

Love the NY Shape (🖕)... ❤ this lesson! Thank you!

Thx man subbed

Very Kimockesk sweeet ,love the tone

Triad pairs!! 🤫 great one bro!

Nice..the conclusion was a Jerry Eric Johnson fusion.......quite pleasant

Every time I watch you < I'd thought I was moving up the latter in feet , and I find out i'd been moving in inches

Nice ☮️

This is sort of like your bird song lesson I was snackin on or trying to snack. I got the first part down that has these mixo arpeggios in in but then switches to this skip note thing that I am lost on. Maybe I should be commenting on that video. anyway your stuff is awesome. I have about 4 youtube guitarist that are the best.

The NY shape is pretty common here in the city of Brotherly love as well I'm sorry to say , lol . Just great stuff Jack !!! Thanks so much !! Would these be considered modal arpeggios?? I saw a Rick Gram Video where he did modal arpeggios and it's kinda the same idea either way Thanks so much this extremely useful stuff here !!!! As always tons of love ❤ from Philadelphia!!

Wow. Game changer.

Close the door and the light stays on!

Great lesson and definitely not just for beginners. Your middle pickup tone is very nice; can you tell me what you're playing through? Thanks

Hey Jack, this is an awesome video and I learned a ton. I had a question which you may have already answered in the video, but it probably went over my head. Can I still use this 2-1-4 shape even when I'm jamming in other keys like A mixolydian for example? From my understanding, this shape encompasses everything mixolydian and you can just change the root to fit the key? Thanks man love watching!

I remember you used the NY shape in your Bird Song lesson

I always think of Doors key/bass lines when those three notes are used in various places according to song! Like their song “20th Century Fox”. Nice lesson 👍👍

i think you are selling yourself way way short... this is a major league lesson...its not just for beginners...and its not silly( except for maybe the bit about calling it NY shape). . You have demonstrated how some very very simple concepts/ building blocks can be repackaged into some very tasty and well phrased licks. This is how people should approach learning to play interesting leads. Sadly, there are few vidoes like this. Ive been playing for a long time and I could spend a while adding to my repertoire with some approaches in the lesson.

Another great lesson but you're still not showing us how you're playing the backing track. This is critical for a person like me who needs to apply this concept over the correct rhythm. Please include an explanation of this in the future. For those of us using a looper, understanding how you're playing the rhythm is critical.
