The Penny has dropped! The right SCALE over the right CHORD 👍 Many thanks.
I Don’t Particularly Like Modes A Lot
I = Ionian
Don't = Dorian
Particularly = Phrygian
Like = Lydian
Modes = Mixolydian
A = Aeolian
Lot = Locrian
That’s how I memorized the Order, I wish this can help as it helped me! Great lesson as usual brother!
That's cool, what helped me was the circle of fifths
Lyd #4
Ion 4
Mix b7
Dor b3
Aeol b6
Phry b2
Loc b5
Change one note at a time cromaticly through the modes.
Then it's easy to see what notes make each mode.
Lyd maj7 #11 (#4)
Ion maj7 11 (4)
Mix dom7
Dor min7 13 (6)
Aeol min7 b13 (b6)
Phry min7 b9 (b2)
Loc min7b5
I realized how easily I could use any mode anywhere anytime I want.
Also that's from brightest to darkest.
Then you can match bright with dark. Go from loc to lyd to phry to ion to Aeol to mix to dor.
Dor is at the center. You can borrow from mirror pairs or just flow in and out of them.
Lyd loc
Ion phry
Mix Aeol
Dor dor
Dor is a mirror of itself
Then there's negative harmony pairs...
Lyd phry
Ion Aeol
Mix dor
Locs negative harmony pair belongs to another key loc.
So you can use the 2 systems together.... mirror harmony pairs and negative harmony pairs.... very interesting. Just try improving a few bars in each pair and keep shifting through. Great stuff man!
Also each mode has its basic relative to borrow from
Lyd Dor
Ion Aeol
Mix phry
Loc can harmonize with mix and Dor.
Thanks for this mate!
@@CMM5300 damn this comment section is full of value thanks guys
@@JadScout yes sir. I learned 130 scales and modes.
There are 2,300 some possible scales. If you research it you will find the answer.
Almost all western music uses only 5 scales.
Major
Harm min
Mel min
Whole tone
Diminished
Your welcome.
I know it's quite off topic but does anyone know a good website to stream new series online?
In my close to 30 years of playing people made Modes out to be this mystical subject. My guitar teacher gave me the scales for each Mode but didn't really explain them to me (14 year old me). He told me it was something I needed to figure out for myself since he didn't fully understand them himself. It wasn't until about three years ago I found a video that they were explained by the chord voicings that it finally clicked.
Damn, I was just thinking that I watched literally all the internet regarding modes and I still don't understand them.
Suddenly this video uploaded 30 seconds ago. Wohoo!
This is how music was meant to be taught! Great lesson.
I agree. I think of modes of every scales as it own identity or scale. I have everything organized to know what my scale and mode selection over any chord. Dim7 min7b5 min7 minmaj7 dom7 maj7 aug7 augmaj7. Studying a lot of scales and modes it's easy to see what can be used where. I have several sets of pentatonic scales to go with each chord as Well. Take any 7th chord and add 1 note you like.... altered pentatonics is a subject I'd like to see someone really go over
amazing licks man
I basically approached it the very wrong way at first. I would improvise with the C major scale over a C drone to get the good ol major sound we know ( ionian)...then "wash my ears" by playing rubbish....then i would play that scale over a D drone to get the Dorian feel....repeat the process then play over an E drone for Phrygian, etc... Just to get the feel for each mode.
Then i would cut the whole major scale into 7 pattern blocks along the whole neck and assign them a mode to visualize from a given root note. That allowed me to improvise mindlessly and feel good about myself, i could play any mode on the spot without pre-analysis. It was completely wrong but essential, at least i eased into the modes that way.
Now i base everything relative to the "Major"(ionian) or "Minor"(aeolian) scale, as my "archetypes" scales since i know them from the start. As i got a basic understanding of intervals, things became simplified.
Over a major chord : if i play a major scale with a #4 instead of 4, that's lydian. If i play that major scale by flattening the 7th, i get mixolydian. If i play just the major scale that's ionian.
Over a minor chord : my regular natural minor scale, that's aeolian. If i sharpen that min 6th to become a "regular"6th, that's dorian territory. If i flatten that 2nd instead on the natural minor scale then it's phrygian.
I'm sure if i flatten everything that might be Locrian, but i don't care because it sounds horrible anyway and i'm not Bjork to try to win the "let's-make-it-sound-presentable" music competition. The other modes are enough.
The hardest part is constructing those beautiful chords that suggest the modes. Visualizing them would be awesome. I would then pretend to be Jack Gardiner or Aaron Marshall or Rabea while i improvise ambient pieces over a ton of delay. No sarcasm, that's actually my dream.
Thank you so much sir! That has cleared the fog!🙏
I - Ionian
Don’t - Dorian
Punch - Phrygian
Little - Lydian
Monkeys - Mixolydian
Ah - Aeolian
Love ‘em - Lydian
"Every time" : Love it, nice to see such a great player showing his humility.
You're very likeable Jack
I genuinley love and watch every friday lesson you make jack, plz don't stop its giving me a prespective i couldn't find elsewhere. your're a great teacher and you're helping me a in transitioning from the intermediate hell hole for guitar player. thanks King
Very helpful lesson! It takes a little background to understand the concepts, but once you do, this is gold. Thanks, Jack!
great lesson , please make a seperate lesson on modal chords only plz
6:28 that's been my thinking for last 4 years until I finally sat down and focused on actual application of modes.
The lesson I needed 30 years ago! Thank you Sir!
Man, I love your music and I've watched ALL your recent teaching videos. This video is awesome, just like the rest. Pre-ordered the album right now 😍
Another food for my knowledge. Thanks Jack for giving free lessons every Friday. Always looking forward to it. Cheers!!!
Yeah Jack! This is awesome! Transitioning from piano to guitar, I think I was able to translate some of that knowledge and this, right here, is what took so long for me to figure out on piano. Killer lesson mate and I can't wait for the album!
Thank you Jack for helping me to understand deeper about modes, worth watching!!
Thank you so much for this !
Another great video jack! Love the content!
Wish you made thid video 5 years back...hahaha i had to watch and slw down joe satriani's lesson to get the notes...and a year and half to understand the concept....beautifully explained
nice playing
I memorized some modes, the typical major and minor ones easily. There are some other ones used in Jazz that for sure have some handy names for them to help memories them... practicing them a lot can also help. Scales I'd hardly use like the Augmented ones, which sound mysterious to me, and the Diminished ones I remember are pretty symmetrical.
Desde hoy, cambiare mi forma de ver los modos, Excelente Clase 🙋♂️
The story of your high school teacher shocked me
MINAH THEHRD! Haha, this was incredibly helpful, thank you Jack! Excellent way to visualize. I always understood the relation to constructing the other scales using the formula of the C-major, and starting on a different degree, but I think its more useful like you said to just know the formulas and intervals to construct each type, and to quit thinking in terms of C major.
Mind blown haha, ive been using the major scale to try and emphasise the modes for a while now, ooops lol
Great video of course .. so thinking in intervals from the root, makes perfect sense instead of trying to be academic and comparing D Dorian to C Lydian on the spot. So if you're in D Dorian, say, and you look at the neck at various positions, do you not at all think in shapes? Or do you see the fretboard as notes from the musical staff? Or do they now simply light up for you so that you can just reach for the note(s) you want with the singing/scat that's guiding you?
Great video, I find with guitar the more you learn the more you realise how much you have left to learn =/
I find doing all this stuff in real time quite difficult, still practicing haha!
Maaaaan! Your sound is better every video 🤤🤤
(love that "gardiner" line at 0:26, its so hard to transcribe 😢)
haha! We noticed he uses that quite often too! Good spot!
I'm very much enthused by the legato shreds you do and your note choices, why they sound the way they do and unlike the overplayed shred patterns. Plus i just really wanna understand how you develop such smooth and fast shred sequences without picking through all the notes. Maybe a lesson on that in the future?
Nice video Jack. Are you going to do a video for each mode? That would be very nice.
I’ve known about the intervallic structure of modes for quite sometime now. My problem has always been whether to memorize each of the seven 3NPS shape s as a beginning mode shape (shape 1=Ionian shape 2=Dorian,etc.). Also, how to construct modal chord progressions has always stumped me. And I’ve only recently come across the idea of knowing which chord each mode comes from, but that seems to make sense to me. Maybe a further lesson digging into the modes. 15 minutes seems hardly enough time to devote to the topic. I want more, lol.
Jack! I really really liked your last song, it has everything! Good harmony, shred, feeling... I love your playing and your way of seeing the guitar. But I want to ask you something regarding intervals... you just learn them by ear, then you locate them on the fretboard (this can be done simultaneously) and that way you can "identify" the relations between them? Because I think you don't play and think "Ok so this is a minor 3rd and now let's go to a major 6th!" you just relate them all by ear right? I know this seems confusing but I just watched that video of yours about intervals and it has opened my eyes, now I see the guitar and music differently thanks to you (and Tom Quayle indirectly haha).
PD: Keep playing and keep being the fantastic teacher/guitarist that you are! God bless you :D
Modes are like Bigfoot, they inhabit two worlds simultaneously. You're welcome! Well, they are a mode and they are a scale. Both, right? I suppose one thing that helped me, I admit, as a beginner, was to think of D Dorian from the sixth string as inhabiting that pattern that turns out to be the second CAGED shape of C Ionian. Did this confuse me? Not really. I didn't care if the notes were all the same in both scales. I knew the root sets the tone, and that was that. My concern was figuring out how to navigate beyond the seven notes. That became quite important if I started with a root on the G or D string, and wanted to descend. I'm not good at counting backward. It's like throwing a ball left handed. But if I knew what CAGED pattern I was in, I would easily figure out how to descend from that G string root. Maybe this is crude, but that was my approach. Once I started playing everything in Dorian, yes, I stopped thinking about "pattern such and such of C Ionian" but that was also after I knew by heart how to navigate using CAGED. I always assumed it was a normal part of theory to know that the notes of D Dorian would be identical to C Ionian, but to "just forget about that" and develop that unique tone of the mode. Whatever, Bigfoot taught me that I think.
Great lesson Jack.Would this way of thinking also be called parallel modes as opposed to derivative? Thanks
I already know all of this info, I still can't play an awesome solo like the one you played at the beginning of the video
Thanks Jack. Always look forward to these Friday lessons. I think I get what your saying but can I check? If I’m playing over a Dm7 chord I can play the D Dorian mode using the pattern you showed, but to move around the neck I need other shapes so can I use an E Phrygian shape as long as I think of it as D root notes in that shape and relate phrasing to those etc.
I don't know why music teachers INSIST on teaching modes from the "it's just Cmajor from the second note" angle, like it makes it so infinitely more easy to see them as their own distinct flavors/sounds
Dude this is exactly how i approach the modes! Love your content, it almost feels as if you started off learning the same way i did. I am gonna peg you down for a CAGED guy who later realised that there is so much more to guitar than just that yet knows that simplifying complex (supposedly) stuff is the best approach to learning the guitar.
I could never "think in Dorian" without CAGED in my rear view mirror. Well, I could have with lots of help, but I didn't have it so I plowed forward, learned CAGED in Ionian for a long time, and then magically found that I could think in a different mode without all the blood, sweat and tears that I thought were necessary. I still found CAGED helpful though, even after all that and it's because I need some visual thing to cling to, like a navigational buoy, a root in a buoy pattern. Then I'm off and running, but I need more than a root and intervals, at least for descending patterns. I just don't think well in reverse, like counting intervals in reverse.
I like stuff.
Great lesson :) You might want to oil your tremolo bar lol
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Jack, I think you are on the same level as my favorite guitar player: Guthrie Govan.
Ahh - I wish! Thanks man! 🙏 Still a lifetimes worth of study left to be anywhere close to his level haha!
can you send some backing tracks ??
Is the backing track you are playing along with part of one of your songs?
Den-Tin Palevo It’s a backing track that I put together just for this lesson man. I may put it in one of my instructional packages in the future! 🤔
@@JackGardiner Oh wow, I very rarely find backing tracks with so nice chord progressions!
@@JackGardiner As a person who enjoys jamming at home, this sounds like a really nice and enjoyable backing track to play along with!
Steve P. Gilfield Thanks guys! 🙏 I’ll post an update here when I release it. Is there any types of lesson packages you guys would like to see it become a part of?
@@JackGardiner May I suggest lessons on songs where there are multiple key changes?
Many players get too comfortable when a song is in just one key; better keep them on their toes :P
Why not a lesson about some picking hand techniques?
Would love a short lesson on fusion scales/modes and how to visualize them on the fretboard
Lyd maj7 #11 (#4)
Ion maj7 11 (4)
Mix dom7
Dor min7 13 (6)
Aeol min7 b13 (b6)
Phry min7 b9 (b2)
Loc min7b5
Mystery solved
Great skills, great player, great communicator but modes suck arse, they just go on and on. Any chance of doing a melodic minor course as it relates to blues and one chords vamps?
Modes are easy
Lyd maj7 #11 (#4)
Ion maj7 11 (4)
Mix dom7
Dor min7 13 (6)
Aeol min7 b13 (b6)
Phry min7 b9 (b2)

There's the modes from brightest to darkest in chords.... chromatically.
Then you know what note gives each mode it's flavor and can use anywhere anytime you want. Cheers!
