Every time I release a video on RUclips, I make a series of extra content and practice sessions that go deeper. I'm adding new videos all the time! Can't wait to see you there.
Being able to play The Blues and The Minor Blues by yourself takes structure and knowledge. Here we are using the Minor Blues to put a lot of musical ideas to use. Leaning on my previous video about Finding Minor Pentatonics: • CAGED CHORD LESSON #8 ... , Timing, and Movement, We will be able to successfully sound great when playing guitar all over the neck. Hope you enjoy being able to relate chords to scales and making music at the same time.
Some good videos to reference:

This video was like an a-ha moment for me, I feel like I can finally see my shapes and chords. Wow. Only took a decade.
more than one decade for me.....unfortunately....
You know those moments where your playing and you just say OOOHHHHHH or crack a big smile because you nailed it and it sounded good, that's what this video achieved for me, it gets so boring just running my scales everyday, this 100 percent makes me sound more impressive. Thanks Again Stich! another A+ lesson
I can't even begin to tell you how much you have guided me this past year. These videos have helped open up so much, not just with guitar but music theory as well. My FAVORITE guitar teacher. Thank you. Keep on 🤙
12:29 "A little flub there, but I don't care." Love that, everyone learning should here that. Thanks Stitch!!!
Had to stop mid-video just to tell you THANK YOU! I discovered your videos today and they feel like you are spilling secrets other guitarist keep to themselves. so thank you so much for what you do. Now back to watching the rest of our awesome video.
Ridiculously good Ian. Light bulbs going off everywhere in my tiny brain. Cheers mate.
Cheers!
Dude I’m glad I subscribed. I first picked up a guitar at age 50 and have just been strumming easy Stones and Beatles songs for 10 years. I’m bored and frustrated with my horrible skill set so now that I’m retired I thought I would try to become a guitarist rather than a “fun strummer” (old TV commercial reference). Thanks for your easily understandable lessons!
Ray S, same here. Been just a strummer for years. Tried learning scales and soling a while back, but just got frustrated. Finally found Stich and a few other guys on RUclips, that have helped me understand things better. Playing guitar has never been more fun!!
@@jackh577 Same here Jack. Knew a few tricks with lead back in the 80's but knew nothing really. Recent career ending injury and I'm finding out how little I knew. Stitch is a great teacher. You can see the love he has playing our instrument. Simple (for Stitch) but he is still floating away with it. Love that. Well, I'm 56 now with some tendonitis and arthritis and 4 titanium ribs oh and fractured spine, and buried my wife in January. Thank God for whoever came up with these combination of six strings. Sorry bout the run-off. Let's do this !
Dude, good luck, Stitch is the best.
This is so perfect for where I am right now.
Thanks Ian!...didn't plan on grabbing the guitar at 3 in the morning but here I am.
One of the best teachers on the web! Exquisite lesson...Thanks Ian..
Thanks Morey
Thank you Stich.Minor always takes you to a happy sad place.Well explained as always.Stay well.God bless.
You are simply a great teacher.Thank you!
I can't begin to express my appreciation for what you teach. Thanks and Stay well.
Have simply run out of plaudits for this guy. As everyone says just a great teacher. For me I am able to actually catch concepts which have probably been explained to me before but gone over my head. That is a special gift to have and share. So appreciated.
Thanks Marty!!! Always glad to have you around
Sooper stuff 👏👏🎸🎸👍👌👌😊 Thank you, Thank you, Thank you 🙏 Now, I can practice my minor Blues Joyfully forever and I am sure whenever I play the Blues, Stich will be remembered for teaching me this so nicely and in a simple, meaningful and understandable way 😊🎸🎸👍👍👌
Many Thanks and Congratulations Sir. You enriched my skills and opened my horizons for the hours I'm passing, playing with my six "ladies".
This was an awesome lesson. Thanks for counting and really breaking it down. I really need that.
I got hours of work from this video. You're a legend.
Sir, when I'm watching your videos, I feel like my older brother explains to me (note: I have no brothers)... Really nice! Thank you, good Sir! 😀
Great explanation of the minor chord and the associated pentatonic shape. I didn’t know this before and I can use this right now. Thanks.
I'm very impressed with your teaching and playing chops. Thanks!
love your lessons ... stay just the way you are- your self
Sounds good !.. I can see that you're having your own home concert LOL👍.
I came across your channel last night. I’ve learned more in the last two days than the past five years! Thanks for making playing fun again!
WOW! I had a blonde Gibson Les Paul Standand very similar to yours, it was made in 1978. I remember it said Les Paul Deluxe on the back of the head stock, which was odd. Man I miss that guitar.... oh well. Yours took me right back. Great Lesson!
My God what I learned from you today I haven’t learn for the last five years since I started my guitar journey.I mean I was doing a bit of everything and never really learn anything.
So glad you enjoyed! Look around the channel, there’s a lot there. Rock on
love the lay back style.so you show that making music is not about 100 scales and some crazy chords,but the feel for it.some simple barrchords w/1,4,5 progression and penta beneath,boom you can sound like a pro for an avarage person.having fun is the goal.again,i feel for your loss.see,in the picture is my late companion Roxanne~Roxy.sorry,i'm about to cry.thx,god bless you
Thank you Ian. So glad your channel is doing well. Great lesson! Please keep them coming.
What a revelation. So simple, I was making things complex.
Hi
From Bradenton FL
Paul
Stich posts, I stop working and grab the guitar.
Same
...and get down to some real work ;)
I just stumbled across this lesson. I really want to thank you for your time and knowledge . The fact that you give this away for free is awesome 😎😎😎😎
I have been out of the loop for a while , i do construction and when work comes its all at once but this is just what i needed
Excellent. Perhaps you should have started your blues lessons with this because it gets us playing the blues and sounds good. But I can see your method of the Never Lost System for structure. However, you can derive such pleasure playing this - It just takes a little practice. I am one of your customers who purchased Master Class 1 & 2. Keep up the lessons. It's always a treat to listen to them. You are in fact a musical genius.
A good kind of playing with myself.
this was great...would be cool to also do another one like this but going over major progressions
Yes. Please!
For open major chord shapes with form pairings, I think C/4, A/5, G/1, E/2, D/3
I can't begin to count how many youtube guys I've watched and tried to learn the caged/ pentatonic connection, Stitch ( Ian ) solved the mystery. Great job, great teacher !!
Thanks man !!
yup.....ditto
This was a GREAT refresher course for me! I haven't played for over 5 years, but the worst part was a brain tumor I had removed 2 years ago. I remember some things about playing, but some things have been lost. I just started again a month ago, and started playing the blues right away. I remembered how to solo in the root, but I just stayed there...which does work....but I couldn't remember if I could switch the scales based on the 4 & 5 or not. I guess I could have experimented myself, but then I wouldn't have found your channel. So thanks SO MUCH!!
It's amazing to watch and learn from these video's. I started playing about 5 years and and taking lessons. I remember driving home from the instructors office and my head was spinning. Now I can watch these and it all makes sense. Thank you for what you do.
Wow,what a great Guitar Player,what a great Teacher!👍thank you very much for this Video!🙏i liked and subscribed!Fantastic!😀
Thanks man! Glad to have you here!
Congrats.I have to admit,that your explanation of dorian,aeolian from pentatonics is a mind opener for a beginner.To explain that penta(5) is a scale w/o the 2, and 6. note is enough to quickly learn the diatonic scale.Knowing pentatonic well is needed,but is sthg that people learn first.Nice job.And in this video you show great example how to use pentatonics w/ caged system to chord chasing.Man,I'm beginning to admire your style of teaching.Simple,yet eyeopening.Bye from sLOVEnia,EU 5.40A.M. CET
Just perfect easy to understand and perfectly executed instruction. These are the kind of lessons more instructors need to make.
Starting to make sense.
Thank you.
Love your pace.
Thanks Stich, great lesson!
I must be learning something, I even substituted the E7 chord at the end of the progression, I remember that from another of your lessons!
You are proving that you can always learn and you should always accept all the knowledge whenever you can. I have been playing a long time and you are still full of information that is useful and makes the guitar continue to remain exciting. Thanks STITCH
Before I watched your channel this is how I would solo, finding my notes inside the chord structure, it really took the blues primer playlist and the CAGED chords video to connect it all, because of this channel my understanding of this instrument grows exponentially.
Thanks Mr. Stich for this wonderful lesson, it's like a spark to ignite the minor blues flame, It's really inspiring and lets me dig deeper into blues soloing, having more fun playing. Your videos are always full of good vibes, with the feel of the good times.
You make it look so easy lol.....great lesson.
Wow Stitch, I just had one of those “Ah-ha” moments! Great lesson, man, thanks!
This is one of my favorite stich vids. Helped me a lot.
Just found your channel. I really like your personality and teaching style. I
Thanks!
Excellent lesson! thanks for sharing.
Absolutely LOVE this! It’s my new obsession! Not as easy as Stich makes it look but even as a novice its a very satisfying exercise. Massive thumbs up and a thousand thanks!!!
Brilliant. Now I finally get the Peter Green feel I've been puzzling over for years. Thanks...
Amazing instructions, I've been following u for a few months, good stuff, adding the count really makes the lesson more understandable, thanks
You've taught me so much! Keep at it man! Respect
Great exercise for chords and Solo. I will have to watch this video for couple of times with my guitar and allocate ample time for that. Thanks Ian. Cheers from Indonesiam
Thank you Stich. This video helps me a lot! I love your lessons. Keep up the good work.
I appreciate what you do on your Channel so much
Ian it all makes sense now. Wow that is so cool. Thank you.
Great lesson Ian. I can't wait to check out the bonus Patreon videos. I really appreciate you taking time to explain the count and structure. Your earlier video on the minor blues covering Since I've been Loving You has always been one of my favorites and was my motivation to learn the Aeolian in the five CAGED forms.
I’ll make a counting one specifically tonight
@@StichMethodGuitar I really appreciate your help with the rhythm side of the jam. I know asking your help in this area is like asking Einstein to teach Introduction to Physics, but there are few teachers helping on that side of the jam. I think the lack of creativity on the rhythm side and poor and uninteresting timing are why my jam sessions fizzle. The rhythm guitars sound like that awful backing track I put on your Facebook page.. Thank you so much.
Very good , Very understandable and takes me much further in my solo guitar playing. Thank you 🎼🎸🎼
Awesome lesson sir!
Nice Vid. Lots of information, Right to the point and not over people's heads.
Thank you, I truly enjoy listenning to your video lessons, Montreal, Canada : )
Great post! You have a wonderful manner. I am hoping videos like this will help me escape my classical roots. Even though I play flute; I recognize I can learn a lot from guitar players.
Terrific lesson!! Adds so much when u include the counting. Ur living ur philosophy on sharing knowledge Kudos!!
Thanks a lot for that video, i just love the minor blues. And as always taught brilliantly!
In 2 minutes and 39 seconds BB King The thrill is gone.. .lol.. great teacher
A lesson I've been wanting for 15 years. Thank you
Thanks for teaching!🤪🥳🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
You know so much. I keep learning.
Great lesson, just what I was looking for. Hope you can also do a lesson on dominant chords blues.
Best teacher EVER!
I can apply this immediately thanks again
Great lesson. I have always struggled with the timing in between the chords. I tend to get lost. This makes a lot of sense.
Brilliant - Thank you!
Awesome, very helpful. I've got the foundation of knowing the scale but next am going to soloing over the right chord. This helps a lot to visualize that!
Excellent stitch, thank you
Man, when you started those slow blues I put my guitar down, fixed a drink, and got comfortable!😂 Only problem was, it was way too short and I had to play it over and over. Great lesson, I have new stuff to work on. Thanks!
Oh you’re my hero!! I have been looking for this for so long. Thank you🙏wonderfully explained.
Back in college I was in an original rock band. We had a song called "Spaghetti Western" -- a minor blues starting on Am. I played bass in the band (because we couldn't find a bass player!) but on this particular song, I played guitar and my band-mate switched to bass. Played the minor barre chords on the 5th and 7th frets. So at the point in the song where I took a solo, I stumbled fairly consistently. I knew chords all over the neck (though I didn't refer to the chord shapes as "CAGED") but I didn't know scales -- not even pentatonic scale shapes. So I basically just tried to play riffs and motifs in the key, in a couple different neck positions (5th fret and 12th fret). This was my chance to take the lead guitar spotlight and . . . it generally sounded very disappointing (to be generous). If I had known then what I know now . . . .
Really good. Do more lessons on minor blues, please.
Wow! Thank you so much for this. U R Da Man!!!
Just loving it! The whole lesson is simple, clear and exceptionally coherent. I've been following your channel for a while and you are one of the main reasons I'm back playing after a 40 yrs hiatus.
Thank you so very much! And stay safe!
Ur the best men as always ..love ur teaching ❤ ♥
This was eye opening.... awesome video
Wow Best lesson I’ve seen on a Panatonic scale and how to use it and Blues soloing too ! GreatLesson for actually learning to play not just play a song or mimic what someone does but to actually feel the music and play ❤️🎸🎶
So glad you enjoyed!
Great Channel man... thanks for sharing
Stitch…Awesome lesson! I appreciate you and your fantastic Guitar playing and teaching! 🎸🎶 Yet another great lesson!
hello, I have watched your instruction over some time now. Today's was epic education.
I am now subscribed.....
Great stuff! No one explains it better 😊
Absolute GOLD, this is exactly what I was looking for!
excellent lesson! thank you!
To my ears this makes me think of Peter Green Fleetwood Mac “ a good day to stop living” at least that’s what I think the name is. Excellent lesson. Thanks Ian!
Awesome lesson. Thank you so much.
Sounds like really early Fleetwood Mac. Great Vid lesson, Man.
I love me some Peter Green
@@StichMethodGuitar Danny was a heck of a player, too.
