Like modes? Consider buying my ULTIMATE MODAL POSTER: teespring.com/signals-ultimat...
Instead of learning thousands of scale shapes, why not just learn how to use the ones you already have? In this lesson, I'll be demonstrating how one tiny little scale shape can be wielded with infinite power to create all 7 different modal tonalities.
Hopefully this helps you all realize that whatever scale shapes you've learned are totally usable for any sort of modal playing. You just have to really understand the idea of modal tonality.
This is the third video where the prime goal is to help people understand modes, however this is speciically geared towards guitarists. The other two modal videos can be found here-

Jake makes you realize how much you already know, he just connects the dots. What an eye opener this video. Thank you very much!
Great incentive
He makes me realize how much I know but at the same time realizing there is so much more
You are right
@@may-ree-oh64 piñol
Exactly how i felt...🤘
That’s it, I’m legitimately calling you the best teacher here on youtube
Not counting Anyonecanplayguitar.uk.com
Legitimately *
Him and Steve Zine are my favourites
what about scott paul johnson
@@neenjaaa my bad lol that's what happens when you type real fast
This guy has the ultimate voice over voice or radio voice. He seriously has one of the best voices i have heard.
And he doesn't look a day over 16.
Meat rider
I've been told I have a great face for radio!!! :P
yeah he's def one of the least annoying guitar guys online lol. some people I just can't stand their voice, or their style, or how they approach things. this guy is great at communicating and breaking down complex things simply.
Not as good as chicken hern.😊
This video is, by far, the most informative and eye-opening lesson on this subject that I've ever seen. Not only does it illustrate the modes but also helps with understanding the notes in all those chords. Fantastic. No need to be subscribed to any other music-theory-teaching youtube channel. This is the only one I need! Thank you!
Been playing guitar for decades...In 17 minutes you have made these concepts completely obtainable! Now I actually feel like I can "Master the Fretboard". Thank you my friend! (BTW, you should think about voice-over work, great pipes!)
That intro is gold Jake! Haha
Yeah, I laughed hard!
"THERE'S GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY!"
He should be an advertiser
That voice is perfect for it.
except he's serious
Dude, this is the most simplistic explanation of modes!!! I have been looking everywhere and mostly encounter over complicated explanations, not this one....this is excellent, great job!
I've known my modal scales for years, but this is the first lesson I've watched that actually explains the how, why, and when of using them in a way that makes sense. Thank you!
Being self taught, I've been stuck in a plateau. This video has opened many doors. Appreciate it.
I raise my glass to that good sir
Can't call yourself, self-taught, anymore if you watched this or any other video about guitar! I mean, unless you invented the instrument you aren't self taught. Learning from others is ok and it's the only way to overcome any plateaus. Observe. Practice. Slowly.
@@joshl.8950 I picked up a guitar and learned completely by ear before I knew a single bit of theory or what I was doing. 😃
Hopefully they're psychedelic.
It's always great when the doors swing wide open and you can break on through to the other side.
Make sure you check the description to find the links to the jam tracks I used! Also, if you still suffer from Modal Confusion after this video, PLEASE watch the two videos I linked to in the description. Between those two videos and this lesson, you should be able to fully understand how modes work and apply it on your guitar. GOOD LUCK!
Hi, do you do private lesson via Skype?
Thank you brother, I am learning theory, now on 7-chords, this video is very good! This building modes on example of C-mixolidian in F-major, i tried to build C-major natural from C-mixolidian an d now see the difference , 7th half tone down, and I am starting seeing notes instead of shapes. I mean it seems that shapes are important just to remember on automatic level like some default major or minor scale how it builds, but the sounding of scales and modes and how they relate that is more important and this is looking like majic, opens doors to improvising thank you!
The vid is clear about using shape to play modes on guitar. My question is how do you apply modes to chord progressions to improvise guitar solos?
@@coolpoolshark Basically like you'd use the minor and major scale (Aeolian and Jonian). Sometimes you can play a few notes from a different mode to add some colour to your playing
U kick ass dude !!! This chann rocks
Finally, someone who uses the word "tonality" correctly! Too many use the word tonality to describe tone colour or timbre. Tonality is, simply put, whether something sounds major or minor. This is good music education as well as a great guitar tutorial. Well done Jake!
Imho Jake has a great ability to translate concepts that many turn into a monster in such a easy way to beginners to understand.
What other terms would you use to describe the tone color or timbre? Since they have to do with tone, I would imagine they fall under tonality as a blanket category. Otherwise, why would microtonal fretted guitars exist?
Im seriously asking (because I really dont know, as of right now).
I stand by what I said about tonality though, because its literally dependent on the individual schema surrounding the topic.
@@TheCyberSatyr Any discussion around music theory and terminology is interesting and healthy. It’s really good that you are showing such an interest in improving your knowledge of music and because it’s so wide and diverse there is always a lot to learn. Firstly I’d like to point out that I have been playing guitar professionally for many years as a touring musician and studio session player. These days I am teaching music at a secondary college in Australia. I am still playing very regularly, writing and recording. Tonality, as Jake had correctly pointed out, is about whether the music or a particular passage of a piece of music is sounding major or minor eg. is the music in a major or minor key. This is the accepted term to describe this and how it’s used in music and it’s related education. Timbre or tone colour refers to, and this is where it can be confusing, is about the tone of a sound. You could use terms such as glassy, thick, resonant, shrill, dull, smooth, harsh, rich, sonorous, brittle, boomy and so on when describing timbre or tone colour. Timbre (tone colour) is not tonality. As I said earlier this is the accepted terminology that is used universally in music education. I suppose the thing is to get comfortable with these terms and how they are used. Correct use of terminology will make discussions, such as the one we are having, clearer and well focused. I hope this is helpful. Keep enjoying your musical journey. What it really comes down to and the most important aspect is your love of playing and making music. There is nothing more exciting, in my mind anyway. Cheers.
@@mal9948 appreciate it
Jake, this class definitely was one of the best guitar lesson I had watched. Thank you very much!!!
Wow Jake, such great examples of the different modes. Your playing is phenomenal!! When you explained it, then played it, really makes it sink in - tnx.
One of the most clarifying videos about modes. I really got how to use them. Excellent video!! Cheers!
Fábio Ferreira agree. Perfect
Most clarifying I’ve ever seen
This is, by far, the best explaining of the modes, finding them and use them in a way that you really hear the difference.
I've never understood modes, you're the first person to explain it in a way that makes sense.
You're an amazing teacher, everything is simple clear and you're personality makes every lesson so enjoyable, Really thank you Jake :))
He has one of the best speaking voices on RUclips. Literally amazes me every time :-)
You are a very gifted teacher (and performer...) - but speaking as a musician, respect in buckets to you for all you share - crystal clear, personable, professional and purposeful - Thank you!
I've just watched 5 Mode tutorials , this is hands down the clearest , simplest out there. Extremely helpful . Thank you
Interesting how many different types of laughter I had throughout this video. Comical laughter at the beginning, then laughter towards the end about how many years I've wasted not knowing this the way you described. Kudos
Thats only two types of laughs
@@WhiteTrash2993 , now it's three lol
Hi Jake, Thanks for explaining the Modes in a way that you can understand them, and how to use them, great video. ( Dave, Essex, UK ).
What you're sharing here Jake is truly EXCEPTIONAL. Many thanks. The very best tutors have an adept understanding of their students' requirements. Bravo Sir.
I think I've watched hundreds of video's, referenced scores of books and pdfs, and I keep coming back to Jake Lizzio.
I learn more here than anywhere else, hands down.
Thank you, Jake Lizzio you are a true teacher.
🤟🤘🤘
Dude this is amazing. You make this stuff so easy to understand, much appreciated!
Just skip between Jake Lizzio and Rick Beato and research a little, you are set for life.
word
True. I'm subscribed to both channels and they are awsome, really informative.... cheers.
don't forget adam neely!
I would also throw some Fretjam in there.
@@yoatzinpenaflor1262 I am going to check that channel. Came in notification but haven't seen until now.
I rarely comment on anything the interwebs has to offer but feel compelled to do so in regards to Jakes material, it's just that good. Informative, great delivery/cadence and very funny to boot. It has me inspired to start creating my own music. I hope Jake becomes rich and famous I think he deserves to be a household name.
Thank you so much Jake!! after rewatching this video countless times, I'm finally understanding that concept of the root note forming the mode! Just wanted to say thanks!
Dude, your videos are THE BEST out there. The most comprehensive, entertaining and practical.
Congratulations and thank you VERY VERY MUCH !!!
Oh my god the beginning lol! You captured the essence of all those commercials 1000%!! I legitimately burst out laughing.
The info and examples really solidified what I'd been looking into with modes. If Signals was just a little closer I'd definitely be doing lessons with you guys if you all teach like this.
I know I already thanked you for having an amazing channel Jake, but can't thank you enough for certain topics. These little examples are limiting to you, but actually you just passed me a bunch of theory crack i'm not overwhelmed by.
The first 10 videos I watched barely made any sense since I barely knew anything, but it's starting to finally click together; Your channel is GOLD!!!!!!! Thank you, really!!!
Really tricky, simple and rich - gives way to so many tracks ! Thank you so much Jake.
But wait , there's modes!
lol pissed i didn't think of that
Lmao fucking genius
Nice! And Bill murry to boot
@@srbertoandres woah, dial it back there Copernicus
One mode thing...
Greetings from Philippines. You're great. I've learned so much and everything seems clear to me now. Just need little more practice. Thank you so much.
I am just 1/2 way through your lesson and in my 32 years of playing, this was the best lesson on modes...PERIOD! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This is a good explanation of how to actually use the modes. Most people who have been playing for a while can hear the differences between them when it comes to sound, but its been a long time of studying before I realized how to actually USE the different modes to get the sounds I want. This is a great video for that, thank you!
Great video! This was a good demonstration that "a fingering pattern is not a scale".
I spun my wheels needlessly for years off and on, just totally overwhelmed with learning scales, until it finally clicked that if you take the time to actually learn major scales and keys properly - the scale construction (the intervals that make up the scale), learning the actual notes (and in doing so, learning all your keys and key signatures), what scale degree each note is in each key, the basic major and minor chords formed in the key, etc., you don't have to learn anything new to play with a modal feel. You just have to actually KNOW the basics. Learning only fingering patterns and root notes is not enough!
Now, I have lost count of how many posts I have made in different videos to explain how "a pattern is not a scale, it can be many scales depending on the context", as you do here. So many people try to take shortcuts and learn "this is 'the ionian pattern', and this is 'the Dorian pattern'..." and so on. It's a first step, but any of those patterns can be any of the modes!
No shortcuts, guys! If you want to learn this stuff, learn it right! Learn the fretboard, learn your theory, and apply it. In the end, it is much more beneficial and actually easier to learn than all the shortcut methods. It just takes some time to slow down and learn it. Crawl, stand, walk, and run before you sprint!
Had a teacher once telling me after I asked about these modes "you don't need to learn them if you know what notes you're playing, they are just variations of simple major and/or minor scales"
I can’t believe I actually understood a RUclips video on music theory...Brqvo sir, what a teacher
I've been playing for years. I've listened and read about theory and modes so many times and for some reason the dots just never connected.
These videos, examples and explanations are amazing and has finally allowed me to completely understand.
Thank you Jake!!!!
Of all the videos I've watched and things I've read about modes this is the one video that helped make it make sense the most.
Great lesson as usual. I am posting a new Lydian backing track next week. This lesson came at the right time.
I'm living in the golden age of education man
RUclips has been so helpful with a lot of school shit and music theories, thank you Jake!
Newish sub, thanks for the content. You are a great teacher. I've never seen music theory in any format, until your lessons, that wasn't boring. Good job. 👍
This is such a good video, thanks for sharing. The idea of pulling the triads out in order really get in the tonality is so simple yet so powerful and instantly useful. Great Video!
This is such an eye opener video, thanks a million. I'm self taught and and these easy to understand videos really helps a quarantined dude who wants to improve :)
This is really useful video to understand basics of scale tonality I think. Great job!
Clearly explained. No complicated stuff to digest. Excellent teaching method. One of the best. Real teachers makes things simple. And you sre one of them. thanks
That was the single most useful lesson that I have had in years. Granted that I have been practicing for a long time. Things have been lining up and concepts are linking together. I already knew my major shapes very well. This gave me a quick run through the modes in a way that just made sense. Simple, and succint. You concisely presented what I already knew in a sensible way. Thank you good sir. 👍
Ty my friend! I’ve wanted to play my whole life. I’m 50 now. Teachers never taught me anything I could play. You however have taught me more in this video than any of them ever had!
Thank you & May God bless you for your kindness & help!
I love the way you articulate what you say, great lessons man. Also, you should consider doing some vocals for audio books or smth, I could listen to you talk for days
Fantastic explanation of how a shape can traverse all the modes! I really appreciate your succinct explanations that flow right into an example, AND the super helpful visuals. Great work, and thank you!
Dude! Thank you! Your entire production here makes this lesson incredibly comprehensible and has moved me from my plateau.
Yes. He used the lick.
Here 13:19
long overdue tbh
A bell went off in my head as soon as I heard that
Buuuaaaahhhh!!!!! LICC
Which lick is that
An infinitely ongoing joke in the music community on RUclips
Hand down best guitar teacher on RUclips, thank you for everything
You've changed the way I look at the fretboard now. I've been very hesitant with my guitar playing because I couldn't jump from one feel to the next, especially across the fretboard. I mean I cannot do it right now, but I know what to work on now. Thank you so much for this. More power to you!
Jake, you are a gifted teacher. Thanks so much for all your videos. I have watched other videos with other people teaching the same material but without the practical element you bring, it has failed to register for me. I think I'm having a bit of a breakthrough thanks to this video in particular. Again, thank you.
OMG. after 40 years of playing guitar i now know how the modes work. Thank you so much.
I'm in the same boat as you. I learned to play from listening and wearing out records. I learned to make all the sounds, but never knew how it all tied together. When I learned the scales it didn't make sense to me as the notes all ran together. I just learned to play the notes I knew that would fit. It would be nice to find a course that spoon feeds us older guys to understand what the hell we have been playing all these years.
Jake is the best RUclips music teacher! I've learned so much since I found your channel. Thank you so much, I only wish I could contribute to your patreon. I'm currently in the infant stages of composing a prog-metal concept album. By learning from your videos, I have been able to inject so much more color than I would've before.
You are a great guitar teacher Jake. Everything you teach is usable and easy to follow. great job!
You do such a good job of laying out these details, with examples and demonstrations... Congrats, I just supported you on Patreon. I think I can actually learn a lot from you. Great, great lesson.
I’ve watched so many videos on modes but none really enlightened me. THIS however was a lifesaver, thank you for clearly explaining and demonstrating 🙏
Will you marry me??
Just as I was getting bored of RUclips for the evening... Jake comes waltzing in, just made my night!
Finally! Jake thank you so much for your modes lesson. I have watched countless vids by other teachers that say that just one note away in a sequence to achieve a different mode. What none of them say, which you do, is targeting the notes in the triad is what will produce a particular mode. Just moving a one-note sequence is not enough and your explanation and demonstration are the best! At last, I now get the modes, and it is soooo easy when explained properly. This is also a great exercise for triad recognition.
Of all the tutorials on modes that I’ve watched, and I’ve watched a lot, I finally get it! Thank you, subbed.
13:20 *the licc*
Scrolled down to find this comment after that.
He had to do it to em
It sounds decent and he builds it all up...
*THEN HITS YOU WITH THE MEME.*
Good Lord he can TALK!!
Yup came here for this.
This is one of my favorite guitar lesson channels on YT, and that intro was absolutely brilliant! This guy reinforces things I've known for years, but never applied myself to. Now that I took time off, and started playing guitar and bass again, these videos and their pacing have been invaluable tools for practice and most importantly writing new riffs. I've definitely gotten that spark back, and while it's been a huge combination of a bunch of little things put together, these videos have made a huge difference in keeping things new helping me to continue to innovate. 25 years ago when I started playing bass, any information this comprehensive would have been only available on a VHS tape for at least $20 from the local music store, a booklet that might be a little cheaper, or paying for actual physical guitar lessons.
My point is this is all free and easily accessible. I would have paid good money to get lessons like this.
Cheers fellow musicians!
...same here!!...playing mostly in open tunings, coming back to the roots of standard tuning this really helps me get back into the mood of things!!...
If I had a teacher like him when I was young, I would probably be a established full time music composer by now.
You can support his patreon
Excellent lesson! All of this finally clicked for me. Endless possibilities from your lesson.
This guy. This video is so jam-packed with everything you need and nothing you don't, while being so perfectly simplified.
I think that locrian track you did sounded pretty chill, it was good
it's unusual mode but it's cool if you know how to use it. Locrian for me it's more like a "detail mode", for a bridge between parts in a song, a pre chorus, an introduction to something. The reason that it hasn't good popularity it's the actual styles and songs written in locrian. Example, Bjork. It's a genius as an artist but not everyone like her music. Nordic black metal, the same. In contemporany jazz, with atonalities, odd time signatures locrian it's a regular mode, no more good or ugly than the others. Music it's about feelings, mood. If you as composer feel that a solo in F root locrian it's the right choice to express what your mind and souls tells you, welcome locrian and it's beauty
I am not a big fan of locrian, either, but he played a very nice "diminished"-sounding lick, which is what locrian is about.
Locrian is neither a major nor a minor mode and is very unstable. It has two minor thirds making the chord a diminished one...
For instance, in the key of C major we have a B°dim giving B Locrian a bad rap..
Steve Vai use it a lot though..😞🐮🐴
You are a brilliant teacher Jake. Keep it up thx man. 👍🎸
You are very good Jake, between you & Rick Beato my understanding of guitar concepts has improved no end. Thanks Jake.
You just explained a huge percentage of what I didn’t understand about these modes and I’ve been playing for years...this video is life changing, Thank you
when I'm totally lost and frustrated jake appears and saves the day thanks so much man
Finally understood these “-ian” stuff!! Thank you heaps!
So simple and easy to understand. Thanks so much for your time and effort explaining and teaching this. Having a cup of tea and learning about modes and shapes, priceless…
A well-spoken young man. He is exceptionally good at explaining these concepts. Kudos and thank you. Consider me subscribed!
Bingo... finally someone made this easy to understand instead of trying hard to make it seem complicated. As for the shape, to me that is just the top 3 strings of the 5th position of the 5 position major scale shapes (or "G" shape in CAGED). Great job Jake!
I don't like naming shapes because it creates a lot of confusion and obfuscates the universality of them- BUT the shape I show at the end is commonly referred to as the G Shape from the CAGED system. The small shape we use throughout can be derived from that.
@@SignalsMusicStudio I understand that, I'm currently doing my best to "move beyond shapes" but when I was a kid taking lessons that was what was beaten into me by the mediocre guitar teachers at the local guitar shop... oh how far we have come! Love your channel Jake you do a great job of breaking this stuff down and make it easy to absorb.
Demystifying Modes.
Yes, this should title of the video. Hehe
I now I truly understand what Modes are.
Thanks a lot bro.
Watched this again after spending some more time figuring out modes. Jake does a superb job in bringing it all together for me. Thanks again
You my friend and your videos have really opened my eyes. You explain theory better than anyone else. I can't thank you enough....
Ive learnt more in 5 minutes than I have with years of staring at books of music theory and scales. You Sir, are a steely eyed Guitar Man.
Same!!! That video is life changing
Occasionally Jake makes you realize how much of his excellent content you wish you'd found a couple years ago. This was an eye opener for me.
A couple?! Ha!!! It's now be 16+ years for me!!! Where has the time gone??? 🤯
Dude! Great lesson. Gotta say, you are very well spoken and are very easy to follow. I've seen hundreds of videos over the years. I've been playing guitar for 35 years (well, trying anyway) and I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to play with many well known guitar players and have been shown thousands of ways to improve my playing and understanding of theory techniques but I find your style of teaching and demonstration to be by far the best for me to follow and comprehend. I'm actually retaining the information and have broken through the veil most players experience. Thanks for putting together this RUclips channel. I plan on sharing it with my band mates and friends who play guitar. Very impressive young dude. Godspeed!
ThDooD
Thank you, this really was the best and easiest for me to grasp, I knew enough theory behind it but was never really able to connect the dots until your video. Very well done, thank you again!
This is the breakthrough I've been looking for. It put me at a new level and I actually understood it. Thanks
Young man, and yes, I can say that because I'm very old, you have one of the best guitar/music channels on RUclips!!
Very nice video. Great to hear how using the same pattern can change the sound of the mode just based on what notes you are emphasising. And then also pointing out how to make sure it is in the key you want.
Thank you so much for this lesson. This is right where I am. I was learning to play the E,A,B chord progression and follow the chords just by staying within the E major Scale. This is an even easier Way to look at it on those notes on the fretboard. Love it.
IMHO: YOUR VOICE WOULD BE GREAT, AS A "RADIO ANNOUNCER"!!!! WOW!!!! THSANKS FOR THIS INCREDIBLY, HELPFUL, AWESOME LESSON!!!! DANG!!!!! THE YEARS YOU SAVED ME!!!! WOW!!!!!
Agreed - he has "that voice" for radio 💯% And a great teacher.
You've made music theory unfathomably less intimidating. I've just started learning theory and I can only name the notes on the e string so far and I know the basic chords, but these videos of yours
are really encouraging. Subscribe.
Man if you grasped these modes after just learning what notes are on the e string, you're a lot smarter than I am. This showed me how LITTLE I know and to be honest, a bit set back. I need 4 yrs of college and at 55, not happening.
@@johnmcaleese8459 I didn't say I understood everything in the video, I just said it made me feel hopeful:D
@@dejanmarkovic3040 Hi Dejan. I wasn't questioning you grasping it. I was just saying the more I watch these things, the more I feel overwhelmed. Was never taught when I was taking lessons decades ago. How's your playing coming along???
@@johnmcaleese8459 Woth regards to theory, not so good, but I've been practicing different chords(mainly neosoul, which is essentially jazz) and meddling around...and yeah, I'm getting better due to deliberate practice, but I've noticed another thing as well....just spend a lot of time woth the instrument in your hands...it doesn't matter what you're doing...I've watched entire three seasons of the big bang and in the first episode, I couldn't hit a chord..my fingers just wouldn't go 1-4-3-2...now I can play weird fishes by radiohead, the trooper by maiden(without the solo), omar and frusciante's 0=2, touche the sky by black pumas and lianne la havas' midnight...just by playing the same thing over and over and over and just watching the show...I strobgly suggest you do that. :)
@@dejanmarkovic3040 Awesome. Isn't that the truth though?!!! Just having thay guitar on your lap, even if you're just resting at the moment, guaranteed we're going to start playing again as compared to tucking it away. Steve has a complete grasp on the guitar doesn't he. Man, to have 6 months of private lessons with him...priceless. I'm not on a computer to download all his lessons or I would. Believe he's a genius and he sure can shred. I have to find out what I need to play these backup rhythms thesr guys use. That would be huge.....along with some teaching (obviously) lol
Peace bruder !!!
You are not just a great musician, you are an amazing teacher!! Thank you very much for making this video with such quality!!
I will be watching, rewinding and pausing, this video lesson over and over - there’s so much practical application reinforcing the theory - and / vice versa. Almost all music theory learning requires a piano (I now have a full 88 key electronic piano) but Jake has opened my eyes - and ears (!) - to how to learn and play modes on guitar. Learning music theory on both piano and guitar is going to deepen my learning and applying music theory including modes on both. Jake is THE go-to guitar guy on RUclips.
13:19: THE LICK
Sr I don’t get it...
@Dakoda Leach same😂
Paused it to look for this comment.
What about it ?
That reminds me of catch the rainbow
Modes over-simplified...really nice video....keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant, I never had any kind of guitar lessons and this has made what seemed a difficult concept really simple. Thank you very much
Ok, this video was mind blowing. Fantastic stuff. Really brought together months of youtube reasearch. Also now given me some great new other channels to watch with backing tracks.
Subbed and liked! THanks!
Hey Jake, thanks for making your videos! I'm a drummer myself, but somehow I learn something new here and move this to my field ;D
Glad to hear! I've found that being a good modern musician means knowing a lot about the instruments that are played in your proximity. Taking a year of drum lessons was one of the best things I ever did as a guitarist and musician.
Drummer Johnny “Vatos” Hernandez of Oingo Boingo once said that drummers who do not play other instruments are boring.
When I was a Percussion Arts major in college, we were required to study piano, marimba, and string bass, as well as music theory and ear training.
I’m primarily a drummer, but have been playing other instruments for decades. I find that understand other instruments makes me a more effective drummer and writer, in a way where I can make the other instruments sound better.
Understanding other instruments gives a drummer a real edge.
I dare say this is the most practical lesson on the modes that I've seen!
That intro-mercial is just pure comedy gold!
And all content after is so too. Fantastic video.
I have been playing for a long time but there is always more to know. Thanks for the vids.
