    These lessons are a paradigm shift for me , unlocking many of the road blocks.. I’ve always tried to be a heart and soul player, but more knowledge of the fretboard will allow me to greatly expand on that.. thank you for what you do..

    I really hope that there are more videos like this for the rest of the major Penta scales ... I have been and still struggling to understand/recall root notes on the fret board .. This type of audio visual Jam tracks are gold. Please keep them coming and thank again .

    I can't believe how much better your videos, and method of teaching are, over *all* others that I've encountered. I knew the Pentatonic all over the neck, but the way I started looking at the patterns, with the way you highlighted them, got me to start looking at them somewhat differently. I started connecting them in different ways, too. Honestly, my soloing wasn't great before, but I've noticed a big difference in less than two days!! The massive amount of praise you get in the comments is well deserved. One really good thing also is, some of your videos are just a little advanced for me, so I've got more to learn!! Thank You.

      Lovely video content! Forgive me for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you tried - Rozardner Inspiring Chord Reality (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for how to play guitar scales minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my close friend Aubrey got great results with it.

    @floydsmithjr7999 2 года назад +1

    That one track just broke me out of years of rambling, incoherent scale traversing by giving me a target to hit. You don’t know what you’ve just done for me, or maybe you do. I can’t thank you enough.
    My only question is, of all the guitar players and teachers Ive been around how come no one has ever told me this? It’s so simple yet if you don’t get this down you’ll go nowhere. I was just playing sequences Ive never been able to play before and I wasn’t even trying. My mind is blown.

    I hope this is the start of a series of videos. Your Guided Jam Track over the Harmonic Minor was phenomenal. I've been wanting to see more videos like this from you. So many places you can go with this type of Jam Track. Highlighting the target tones as the chord changes (like you did with the harmonic minor track) would be really cool in future videos. Great job with this concept.

    • @fretjamguitar
      @fretjamguitar  9 лет назад +7

      +John Heiler Hi John, yes I plan to do more guided jams along the lines of the harmonic minor one. I didn't highlight the target tones in this one because with all the chords being on the same root it's a bit of a free for all and I wanted to keep it open. The next stage would be playing major pentatonic over root-chord changes, so that will definitely have target notes highlighted. Cheers.

    • @michaelmunday6808
      @michaelmunday6808 3 года назад

      Yeah because the chords used have the same root just target the 3rd and the 5th in addition to the root for starting and ending points

    after a six year hiatus, due to contracting a severe mental disorder, I want to resume playing the guitar, but, THIS TIME, working towards being an authentic Blues guitarist. Having played solo gigs for 35 years, I played with no one else at all. I learned nothing new, and progressed little, if any at all. Playing and learning scales, never entered my mind, and now I see scales are the groundwork for everything to come. I need to research definitions of terms frequently used, of which I have no knowledge of, whatsoever. It sounds like an enormous amount of work, but my determination is strong. Please, throw me a bone, mentioning anything you think would be beneficial in my quest to be a knowledgeable blues guitarist.

    • @oneeyemonster3262
      @oneeyemonster3262 8 лет назад

      KEYS ARE JUST PITCH....FOCUS MORE ON INTERVALS. ONE OCTIVE AT A TIME. If you want to play BLUES...transfer it to minor. KEEP IT SIMPLE. Learn the 12 barr progression. Learn it in Amin....Just play the I, IV, V movement.Its the same thing as 6,2,3...A min, D min, E min....When over A minor play A min. When over D min..play D min. When over E min play E minor. Then add OPTION/passing NOTES. I chose BLUES VERIATION 3. (R..............b3..x...4....x....5..................b7..x R)You can also play it from The MAJOR pentatonic. Apply the same concept.( R..x...2...x...3..............5...x....6...............R).............

    • @oneeyemonster3262
      @oneeyemonster3262 8 лет назад

      -You can also play just within the Major pentatonic...Just make simple barr chord. Example...when you go to the 2 note. Make a power chord. Play the second mode (ocitve to octive at first)...Apply the same concept to the rest of the NOTES. You'll basically play 5 power chords with 5 different MODES within the major pentatonic...It'll sound rock /county. Then learn the double stops or 2 Note chords..it's either going to be a maj3 or 4th intervals....you'll simply find pull off or riffs points. A lot of its has to do with being familiar with the sound of the scale. It'll basically play it self....it passing notes just makes it sound bussied or creates tension...but it's going to resolve to one of the pentatonic notes...Hopes that makes sense.

    • @oneeyemonster3262
      @oneeyemonster3262 8 лет назад

      Or if you're more further alone of knowing( I IV, V are Maj.) (II. III. VI are. minor)....Play a Maj or min pentatonic over those notes/chord according...Example in C maj....play C maj pentatonic...when over the ii chord play D minor pentatonic. When over the 6 chord... Play Minor pentatonic. You'll still be within all the note of the C major diatonic scale....it'll still sound rock/ country....Later on you'll just insert the two missing notes for more define modes. Example you'll just insert the 4 and 7th to make a MAJOR or Ionoian mode....4 and b7 for mixloian...#4 and 7 for lydain....The same with minor..(2 and b6 = Aeolian). (2 and 6 = dorian ( b2 and b6 = Phrygian)...As you advance..you'll simply Play Aeolian with maj7 to get the HARMONIC minor. Then you'll just shift one note to get different modes within that scale. The melodic minor is just an Ionian with b3....and seven different modes from that.

      Fingerstyle Blues or electric Blues? The Peter Gelling written Progressive series of books cover a wide range of Blues styles, from acoustic Blues to Ragtime to Blues Rock. A good place to start from, I'd say.

    I honestly feel this is how everyone should learn guitar. I've been playing from tabs and instructional videos trying to learn riffs and solos that are probably beyond my ability, and I do not fully understand what they are doing, but these lessons are perfect, explaining and highlighting root notes and intervals, and then when a player is ready they can add in notes from the minor scales and fancy bends and slides. Really good stuff fret jam! Keep the lessons coming 😁

    I do want to thank you for the tutorials on shell chords and slash chords. No one else comes close to teaching this (or even mentioning it) the way you do.

      the notes (or scale degrees) in the scale.
      In the major pentatonic in key of C those would be:
      1 = C
      2 = D
      3= E
      5 = G
      6 = A
      The 4 and 7 (F and B in the C major scale) are generally not played.

    Enjoying this exercise greatly. Thank you!
    Quick question: When I listen to this chord progression I feel like it wants to resolve to a different chord after the C13sus2 before going back to C but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. Any thoughts?

      +Chris Loos Fmaj? It's common to hear a movement to the 4 chord when a b7 is added to the 1 chord.
