THANK YOU for showing interval numbers instead of the note names on the fretboard. It makes it SO MUCH EASIER once you understand the major scale. These lessons are a godsend!
Seriously I've been looking for this for a while! (I'm sure they exist somewhere but they're definitely not easy to find unless I'm just an idiot. Aweeeesome lesson!)
Thanks again for these amazing lessons - they have transformed my playing! I'm curious when you would generally recommend practicing in different keys? Thanks again!
Hi Jared, you have quickly become my go to guy when I want to learn something new or need a greater understanding for something I’m working on. Great information that is wonderfully presented. Thank you!
Once again, this is a great lesson! You have taught me the major scale and practice ideas so well that I can now move between all major scale shapes in every key all over the fretboard. I still don't feel confident playing lead breaks in my bluegrass jam, but I am now studying the major arpeggio chord tones per this video. I play rhythm guitar and enjoy that very much, but I am trying to be able to break into some lead. This series hopefully (with lots of practice) can help. Thanks so much for your lessons!
Fantastic thank you for putting together such comprehensive lessons and giving them to people for free. I have been studying the CAGED system and it works for me as it helps me to visualize and connect the chords and notes.
This video came out during my own studies on this topic. I'm excited to follow this video series. I think the toughest part of improvising over chords was making melodies that didn't sound robotic.
Thanks, Chris! I agree that's a really hard part about improvising. I talk much more about phrasing during the upcoming lessons in this series. I hope you find them helpful as well! :) cheers, -Jared
As a new guitar player, what has held me back when it comes to soloing is trying to remember where all the notes are on the fretboard. When I switched to trying to understand where the scale degrees are relative to where I am on the fretboard, things got a lot easier. For example, to play major triad arpeggios you mostly need to know how to move up or down by either a major or a minor third. If you can do this horizontally on a single string and vertically between adjacent strings, it seriously reduces cognitive load. Now the only missing piece is to know where the root notes are on the fretboard to be able to navigate up and down.
Funny you’re doing arpeggios. I came up with a diminished 7th exercise last night, though I’m sure I didn’t make it up, it’s new to me and I’ll tell myself I made it up. So I start on B dim7, A string second fret. I go through the arpeggio, BDFAb, and instead of repeating the root on the high E, I come back starting on C and work through the arpeggio and instead of repeating the root, I go through the next starting on C#. So you’re never repeating the root, you’re working your way higher and higher up the fretboard. It was a challenge.
Oh wow I wish you could've supplied the strings and the frets as well as the fingers. I'm blind and it's kind of hard to work out exactly what you're doing without being able to see the video. Unfortunately I can't use tabs either. I
It dampens the harmonics/overtones that come from the strings above the nut. If you strum all the strings loudly, then mute them with your hand, and listen near the head, you will hear those strings ringing. That's what it prevents. It just cleans up the sound a tiny bit. Good question :) Cheers, ** Jared
Our brains are capable of flipping images easily but having the correct orientation (for right handed players) for the diagram and reverse orientation for the video makes for a tough translation. Not complaining, but I've seen good videos with an over-the-shoulder camera angle that really helped me. That said, I appreciate the content!

Glad it was helpful! I totally agree and I'm all about the numbers instead of the note names :) Cheers! -Jared

Great series of lessons Jared. I am looking forward to the entire series.
Glad to hear it! Thanks! :)
Not knowing and now I know, wow I am amazed, with practice there is light at the end of the tunnel! Truly thankful!
Short, direct and meaningful. Thank you! Jared.
Thanks, Praful! Glad to hear that :) -Jared
Just what I needed to get into arpeggios. Thanks, Jared!
Glad to hear, thanks! :) -Jared

This PDF is great, thanks for putting in the time to create it. Usually I piece together my own in a photo editor but this saved me a lot of effort!
Thanks, Bo! You're very welcome! -Jared
Best on YT. Thanks!!
Wow! Thx for the lessons! …and the chord tone chart! Awesome…
This is another topic that I have stayed away from because of lack of understanding. Today a moment of sudden bliss, thank you Jared.
That's great to hear Stuart. ~~ thanks!

Thanks Jared. Another great lesson. Looking forward to digging in.
Thanks, RT! :)
Thank you.
Remembering the chord tones and arpeggios in a live session is something I am need more confidence
Great goal!
I was looking for this. Nice job with teaching.
Thanks, Scott! :) Cheers -Jared
Hi Jared,
Really liked this lesson. Think it has break through potential.
Ken
Glad you liked it, Ken, thanks! Here's to having breakthroughs :) -Jared
Good information, thanks for sharing.
Great stuff , thanks Jared just what I need - should have been gigging tonight in Edinburgh but we have Storm Barra shaking the shack 😬
Thanks, Lovat! Stay safe through the storm!!
Excellent video
God bless you
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you so much 😍
You're welcome, thank YOU
Jared, I think that I am having a breakthrough, thank you
YAY, that's what I love to hear! :) ~~ Jared
Thanks!
You bet!

Wow, great work! Sounds like you're making awesome progress. Thanks for sharing. :) -Jared
Awesome Jared, Thanks! What Tele is that you are playing?
Can the same placing used for all the other notes?
🎉great 😊
Great lesson to work in, Jared! What looping pedal are you using? Thank you so much for your effort!
Thanks! Using an old school Boss RC-20 looper :)

LOVE it! Thanks for sharing, Mark. I love how you design your own exercises! :) that's the best
@@soundguitar Yea it is cool, kinda hard at first. I think I may do it with other chords, should be fun.

Why do you have a headband around the nut of the guitar neck?
It dampens the harmonics/overtones that come from the strings above the nut. If you strum all the strings loudly, then mute them with your hand, and listen near the head, you will hear those strings ringing. That's what it prevents. It just cleans up the sound a tiny bit. Good question :) Cheers, ** Jared
I am NOT understanding the whole arpeggio thing! What is the key to understanding this? Help! J
