I totally agree but I’d like to add knowing the notes on the b string as well. This was a game changer for me as it allowed me to easily visualize all the D and C shaped chords. So if you know the notes on the low E and A strings, you also know the notes on the high E string. Just adding the notes on the B string really opened up the fretboard for me.

I agree, the notes on the B string can give us some good triad shapes :)

"How a guitarist's mind works" or "Inside the guitarist's mind" could be good subtitles for this (awesome) lesson. (Both a little ripe for satire, I realize, but that's alright.) Levelling up!

Blue, every video you make is helpful, even though I'm an intermediate player. I use those same landmarks all the time. The more I learn "complicated" passages, the more dexterity I develop...and the more shapes I remember relative to each other... ...using landmarks! (Like chords or triads with licks & dbl-stops.) Thanks for continuing to do these videos! Keep up the excellent fun! 👌 👍 🤪

Another excellent video blue. Teaching us to fish, rather than giving us a fish etc. I'm so in agreement that getting those E and A notes memorised opens up the fretboard so much more to try to put these ideas into practice..

Thanks Blue, Great summary that helps to carry on improving! Theory is great and necessary to understand and progress but as you say several times... when playing, and that's what really makes fun, it flows much better if you just have clear landmarks to know where you are and what to do with theese concepts and shapes that work well to make it all simpler...

I want to encourage all players to learn this stuff. However, don't get discouraged if this takes a LONG time. I have been working on fluidly moving through the 5 major and 5 minor shapes across the fretboard and learning all my triad shapes for the last 7 months. I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel but still have a ways to go. Next, I need to add 7th chords and triads. FYI, I practice for an hour 6-7 days a week. Don't be surprised or discouraged if this takes a year. Just keep going. Like anything else, progress takes hard work. Thanks Blue. Every time I watch one of your videos, I learn something. FYI, I bought your soloing book but haven't started yet.

@tomcarmody547110 сағат бұрын
@@ssm445 First I assume you are familiar with the CAGED system. If not, watch some videos on that first. That will help a lot. I go through the 5 shapes for each key starting as close to fret 1 as I can(where the whole shape fits on the fretboard) and I go up and down the fretboard, (at least to fret 12 and back) Keep in mind that sometimes the C shape is the first one that fits, sometimes A(then you play AGEDC), sometimes, G(play GEDCA), etc.I do this for all 12 keys in the order of the circle of 4th's(It's just the circle of 5th's in the other direction. The 4th's just progress nicely up the fretboard.) I then I pick a common chord progression like a 1,4,5 (for instance G,C,D, but choose a different one every day). I start with G major and play that shape as close to fret 1 as I can that the whole shape fits, then the C major shape that fits in that same 4-5 fret area, then, D major shape that fits in the same area. Then I move over to the next G shape and do the same thing going through the chord progression while staying in the same area of the fretboard. I do this for all 5 G,C,D shapes. As I got better, I also played the chord within each shape and all the triads within each shape. You pretty quickly see how the scales, chords and triads fit together. When I got comfortable withe the major chords/shapes, I added in the minor. The minor shapes are the same as the major shapes, just moved over one shape although the root notes are in different places. So learning the minor doesn't take anywhere near as much time as major.This will make sense when you start doing it. I hope that helps. This routine has really helped me understand everything but as I said, it takes time and effort. I sometimes take a day or two break, to learn a song or solo to break things up but I'm not stopping what I am doing until I can do everything effortlessly. I have already made significant progress. If you have questions about what I wrote, reply and I will try to clarify. Blue, any comments on what I am doing?

forget altering your lesson format, imho. These - group- question and answer things just end up being a waste of time , often with , quite frankly, stupid questions from the audience. You lose FOCUS and consistent emphasis of the core material that is so important to getting the lesson down. I cant tell you how many u tube seminars I have gone to , and found them taken up by - morons - who stole my and the instructors time asking silly and or irrelevant questions. YOU are the teacher, laser like focus is requisite.

I just learned my open chords first and used my ear to find the notes on the next position and then I progressively found the same notes on the neck I started with all the A's and then the B's and so on. Also used the diagonal root technique to find root notes quickly when soloing. eventually I knew the whole neck lol I didn't even learn caged but it makes a lot of sense.

I remember going to a live bar band back in the day that didn't run the guitar amp through the PA. Depending on where you were in the room the guitar was either drowning out everything else or it could barely be heard. One whole side of the room the vocals, drums, and bass sounded fine, but the guitar was almost non-existent. It just sounded like ass. The bar wasn't top notch so they didn't have a PA, and the band was just a bunch of kids so their little PA was just for vocals. I was just playing guitar for a few years by that point and knew nothing about all that stuff, but I remember the sound. Years later and a few amps later was when I realized that guitar amps sound is more like a flashlight beam, where a bass guitar is more like a lantern. I've seen some good sounding bands that didn't mic up the guitar amps but they had good room acoustics and experience setting up on their side. But overall, running a guitar amp through the PA is the approach to use if you want everyone there to hear the guitar, not just the handful of people within that "flashlight beam" of sound.

Couple of things worth mentioning while explaining modal scales: 1. The notes that are flattened or sharpened compared with the major scale of the root note of the mode. e.g. in this context, the major scale (G major) with the flattened 7th (b7) gives the G mixolydian scale. 2. The importance of practicing the modes starting with the same root note. e.g. practicing G Ionian, G Dorian, G Mixolydian starting at the same root note on the fretboard. It not only gives the reference from the major scale, but also serves as a ear training method to understand or differentiate between the sound/character of each mode. In the end, it’s all about the ear‘s perception than anything else!
