    Can you identify notes as quickly as I'm recognizing them in this video? If so, how did you learn to do this?

      I can. And only because I trained like maniac, for like 2 months, doing exactly that, after I watched, you guessed it, MM course years ago. For that sir you have my eternal gratitude.

    Your lesson on learning the notes on the fret board opened up the door to my pentatonic soloing...thank you Doug

    Aha! Two notes per string. It takes a lot of self-discipline to do this, and it's something I need to work on. Looking forward to the next video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

      You're welcome. See you Saturday Dana. If you just do it daily for a minute or two, it really doesn't take that much self discipline. If you did for a half hour, that would be pretty crazy and would take self-discipline.

    Thank you Professor!! Very clear and three simple and practical routines to burn this into the brain. I had to travel last week and picked up a book at an airport, On High Performance, containing articles from Harvard Business Review. The first article, The Making of an Expert, had a section on Practicing Deliberately, to wit, "It entails considerable, specific , and sustained efforts to do something you can't do well - or even at all. Research across domains show that it is only by working at what you can't do that you turn into the expert you want to become." .... I get home and check my email....There is Doug with this 6.5 minutes of brilliance!! ...... Dear Lord, I am so gracious for this, help me digest the wisdom and and Practice Deliberately daily the gifts I am about to receive...... and someday let my guitar scream with joy.......... Again, thanks!!!!

    My first instrument was piano, and I think it actually worked to my detriment on guitar. Whenever I try to identify a note on the fretboard, I subconsciously envision the keys on a piano. It's a slow process, but I've never known a different way. I like what I'm seeing in this video, though. Very encouraging.

    Thx Mark, great video. This is the best video on learning the notes I've seen so far, it's not over engineered. There's one other video I saw that teaches using a metronome and keeps it simple like you. I can share the link if interested.

    I love you Doug, you're one of the best teachers I've ever encountered. I've seen the method you reference and it just didn't seem to work for me: too 'all over the place' possibly? I started trying to learn the notes by picking a scale shape (I guess the ideal shape for metal guitar would be 3NPS C Major scale because no accidentals?) and then playing just that one shape up and down and reciting the notes until memorized. Then move on to the next shape. Do you have any thoughts on that? Thanks man

    • @DougMarks
      @DougMarks  3 месяца назад

      I think your method is great. It obviously worked for you and would be good to add to this routine. The more different ways we approach something like this the better because when you're improvising nothing works like instant recognition.

      Yes, there's no real shortcut. Like most things guitar related it responds to consistency. Without consistency things rapidly slip away.

    The most mentally painful excercise I know is playing every 16th note permutation consecutively, it takes so much mental energy it's very uncomfortable to withstand.
