Being a blues guy, this is a fun non/pentatonic way to get familiar with the major scale.....I feel like once i learn this, i could probably sit down with any type guitarists/singer and get by....As much as i love the blues, beautiful melodies come from, this scale....

Wish I'd learned this 30 years ago. Just this morning I was figuring out how that I could use the different triads just on strings 1-3 to make either major and minor chords of each possible 12 roots, all confined in a zone of whichever 5 or 6 frets. It boils down to being parallel with what you're teaching here. Brilliant, thanks!

This is a great vision on soloing, song writing, chord playing... on whole philosophy of guitar playing. It wold be nice you to continue this video with another series - for example - the same vision for minor scale, for triads on higher 3 strings ( using only triads - not whole chords, and only on higher 3 ( or 4 ) strings - where main soloing work is going on), etc. I know that we can do it ourselves, but as a followers of you - it is our obligation we to push you to give your best in the process ;)... And you explain things so well... Thanks !
