THANK YOU! Finally somebody that showed the relations between pentatonic scales and chords. You have no idea, how necessary this video is.
I know! I just didn't get it until this.
The helicopter was searching for the best guitar teacher on youtube. Pilot is probably blind. We already found the dude 😊. Thank you for teaching us so much. Gtrz Fab.
Stich ,I,m 70 yrs. have been a dead Head from the beginning, and you r the one that keeps me going you amaze I learn something from every video Thanks Man ,u r a excellent Teacher, your the Bombdigadee Dude.
I'm glad you're back!!!!!!!
Yes!
I also like to play the vocal melody as a guitar solo, example Santana, Let the Children Play.
THIS. This is the key I’ve been missing. I’ve been playing for probably 20 years. I can memorize songs no problem but I always struggled with soloing and improvising. This helps!
Yah
Had to save this. 30 years, been on stages, but it all by ear...
😮
I’ve been playing for 45 years I would strongly encourage any beginner level guitar players, and combined this lesson with the caged System (they’re pretty much the same thing)
It will take longer to learn to shred but the finished product will be well worth it. This is a great lesson.
My first guitar teacher used to say "just play the bottom four strings, the other two are for the bass player". Now I know what he meant.
That’s a nice tip.
Bottom of guitar but top of the staff. Music language is complicated.
@@trevortully7179 It sure is. Another thing that screwed me up and still does, is the high and low strings. I cant get it out of my head that the "high" e string is the top E string, and the "low" e string is the bottom one. I know, its weird, but to me the high one is on top, and the low one is on the bottom.
My friend taught himself to play guitar holding it upside down. He said it made more sense to him to have the thinnest strings the farthest from his reach, than the thicker ones. So when he reaches, he doesnt have to press as hard. Pretty warped, but he was a gifted singer and songwriter so I guess if it works, it works.
@abraxas511 with the guitar in your lap, hold it up in front of your face and flip it so the fretboard is facing towards you. That's how you gotta picture the fretboard. The low E is on the bottom. I also think about it like the low string is the bottom string. Of course it's the opposite of your right hand picking motion where down is actually towards the floor.
@@trevortully7179nah. Musicians need to stop referring to their higher frequency strings as the bottom. Those are higher notes and therefore your higher, upper, or top strings. Your lower frequency strings are your lower or bottom strings. Up and Down needs to always be referred to in terms of frequency for the musician.
You're one of the best teachers on the planet. Finally someone who makes it SIMPLE. BECAUSE IT IS!
Thank you.
I'm a self-taught guitarist. (Mel Bay and Guitar magazine). After 25 years of playing, I still had questions. I got stuck on a solo. Had no idea what to do. It felt like I was out of ideas. Then I found Mr. Stitch.
I applied one of his lessons, (singing your solo). And it changed the way I was approaching the song. And, it worked.
Thanks.
Wow, what a fun and easy to follow lesson. Within minutes I've been playing to backing tracks in a different, and maybe more musical, way. Keep up the great work!
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO MADE IT CLEAR HOW TO TRANSITION. THANKS A LOT MAN
I just had several light bulb moments watching this video. You are a fantastic teacher!
A big warm welcome back Stitch from Aja64 from Glasgow Scotland 🏴🎸👋
You are an incredible teacher, Ian. I feel like I’m gaining insight by leaps and bounds. I’ve watched several of your videos in the past but hadn’t checked out your Patreon until just this week. I am soooo glad I did. There are multiple online and in-person instructors I’ve been learning from the last 5 years and I do learn from them all but you, by far, are the best at breaking things down and getting concepts across. And your passion for guitar and being creative is contagious and inspiring. Plus somehow you make it feel like we are truly in a “room” working together. I didn’t think I could become any more obsessed with my guitar journey than I already am but my excitement just skyrocketed. Thank you for all you do!
Thanks Anne!! You rock!
In three years of learning I have never heard anyone explain how to move up and down the neck so clearly. Thank you so much 🙏
HOLY CHORD TONES STITCH MAN! I've just worn my fingers to the point of bleeding. Two years of learning and recently consumed by 'triads'... this lesson was pitch perfect and on point! I'm back to being amazed at the fact that I can actually play some notes that 'fit' the rhythm. Yeah... I'm another 66 year old but I'm really just 12! Jam on!
Great video as usual. Thank you. Your wife hit it right on the head. So many of Jerry's leads have that "joyous" sound to them. I think that is what made his playing so special. His leads conveyed a feeling more thank just a sound...
Man, you're always right on. Glad to see you back. 2:31
Thanks for breaking that down. I've heard people refer to just playing the "box" and didn't realize it's essentially the lower portion of the pentatonic "E" shape.
Wow. Like the Cars said " You're just what I needed..". What a comeback lesson. Im going to call it the Stich Helicopter lesson.
I loved this lesson. A thing that many struggle with or are running into a wall, this lesson gently and effortlessly makes the wall fade away.
You hit the nail on the head. Your analytics tied it all together in one lesson. So much partial information out there, all great pieces.....but this "Ties Together" the pieces of the puzzle. Thanks a Million from someone trying hard to understand.
This guy is such an amazing teacher… every video I’ve stumbled across has been followed by a giant step or two for me in my playing
Nice to see this explained so well. I know this method works because this is how I've been soloing for years. It works. If for whatever reason I lose where the chord is, I just go directly to the pentatonic scale until I get my bearings and then head back to the chord shape. To practice this, play a recording of a song that you know the chords of and follow it with your own solo.
this is exactly the way I do it, the pentatonic is a safe haven and you can sail the ocean from there
The best way to start learning lead guitar I have ever seen!!!! So simple!!!
Thank you karl marx for teaching me guitar improvisation
Thanks a million. Finally I get it :) It's all come together now. What a relief! Since watching your video I can now play along and improvise beautifully to ALL those old songs I just gave up on in the past. This tutorial is heaven sent. Thank you so very much.
Love stitch method. I don’t often comment, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the friendly, easy going, way in which you explain these tips and lessons. Thanks a bunch. Too often is the case that many youtubers come off a little arrogant. That’s no way to sell their product. And definitely no way to teach.
This is Revelation of what I have been searching for sure I have assignment to work on now even though I haven't grasp the scales very well but am glad really grateful more grace 🙏 ❤.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Excellent framework for keeping up and staying within the chord changes. This will help my solos sound more musical and less like I'm practicing a scale!
This is really good! I learned a ton from your video. So many teachers say to use certain scales, modes, etc, but rarely say WHEN to use them. ‘Play the changes!’ And now i have some tools to do it. Thank you!!
Your an hour away from where I live in Alfred ,Ontario. Welcome and nice to see you making videos again! You have gotten really great as a guitar instructor and as a nice human being! Thanks for what you do!
I connected with this one dude! Thank you. I've been working learning triads and boom, here it is. Awesome, well done.
Bro this is the video I’ve been looking for for ages . Thank you so much .
This is the video I have been missing. So many things clicked here. Thank you!
Omg ! I am enlightened man. Thanks. Love from Turkey 🇹🇷
Good to have you back...
brooooooooooooooooo !!!! you blew my mind with this , definitely leveled up in soloing in like 5 minutes THANK a million !!!! subbed and liked !
I have dyslexia, adhd, asd, and tons of learning difficulties. But this video helped me tremendously.
Thanks
Thanks Ian! This really clicked. It's not the only way nor necessarily the best way, but as you say, it always works and is easy to get started. I've been jamming to a few backing tracks with this and have taken a major leap forward in lead playing. I'm the rhythm guy who gets to take a solo now and then, and that's fine. But... Band hasn't rehearsed for a week - next week they might be surprised :-)
Stitch, glad to see you're well brother. Keep up the lessons!
Your teaching makes it simple. I appreciate your channel.
Home Run....Now This simple method is right up my alley...I seem to have a retention issue. I can play this without notebooks or tabs ...just playing freely is an amazing feeling.Thanks.
This was the most helpful lesson on introductory soloing that I've ever seen/heard. I've been playing for about ten years on & off, and always struggled when it came to any premise of soloing. It was pretty much limited to randomly dancing through scale patterns. This is a great start and can't wait to start experimenting with it. Thank you!
Great video Thanks, I always come back to your videos to get the right way to learn music.
That easy. Wow! thanks
Playing the notes in the songs ...explaining why they work...is best...that and why it's important to keep one's beard neatly trimmed is of great importance...😊
This is the video Ive been looking for. Thank u!!
Thank you, this is the video I was looking for. I'm glad you mentioned emphasizing certain notes/not messing with/ending on notes in the scale. I was definitely confused about that!
Until now I never got the difference between the minor pentatonic and major pentatonic scales shapes. Now I get it so thank you. It took me years to find someone who could show it so beautifully. Well done
Interesting lesson. Focusing on the chord tones instead of getting fancy bending strings all through the solo is a revelation. When I bend strings around a chord scale, I'm pretty darn sure I lose track of where I am going forward until the next chord change. It might sound great when you're doing it but experience has taught me time after time that it's a fishing expedition to get your bearings back into a familiar scale once a chord change happens. I never knew why until this.
Thank you. This is one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched.
So happy to have you back!
I'm excited to watch this a bit later!
Thanks for bringing this into focus - I always knew this but never thought about it while playing - I like this perspective it really helps.
Chords ... and ... scales. THANK YOU!
Good to see you back, your are always such a great inspiration. Hope your are doing good behind the big beard and the dark eyes. Thanks for everything, brother!
I looooooooove this!! So simple. I love how you don't try so hard to act like you know more than everyone like some other youtubers. I'm just lost when I watch those videos but this makes great sense to me. Thanks man.
That's it. My favorite teacher. ❤❤
great lesson. I started with doing this and now when I practice I have some time where I imagine a chord progression in my head and try and play / improvise. A good example is the chord progression to Hotel California, if I can hear the chord progression through my improvising I feel like im having a good day lol.
Thank you so much! it's never been explained like that to me before.
This is the video that helped me finally take my next steps forward after 2 years.
Hey, man. I just discovered your channel. Love it. Thank you so much. This video had me looking back on my own guitar journey. I think it's a mistake to teach beginners scales and patterns. That's how I started learning. Memorizing all the scales, but not knowing ANY application. I wish I had been taught chords, intervals, and triads FIRST. I think I'd be a better player today if I had learned that way. Anyways, fantastic lesson. Thanks a ton. Peace.
You sir are the MAN!
I CAN NOW PLAY ALONG WITH BACKING TRACKS!!
THANK YOU!!😊
Oh how I needed this right now. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Great to hear you are enjoying montreal!
Wow it’s what I’ve been searching my whole guitar journey 😭😭 you’ve unlocked a new perspective and creative in guitar soloing for me and I thank you so much 🫡
Hey Stitch,🔥🔥🔥🍺,keepin that stick on the ice as always 😎
Thank you so much for sharing all these priceless knowledge
Really enjoyable and informative sir, thank you
Every once in a while you get an aha moment. I don't know why I never thought to use this. Thank you, Sir.
*Good to see you again my friend! Love watching your videos since day 1* ❤🎸🥇
Best lesson!!! Thanks and greetings from Austria 😊
Great lesson! This got me unstuck from exactly the problem you described. After this, i feel more confident to mix in scales which don't necessarily have the root of the chord on the first string, but we'll see about that.
Incredible! Thank you so much
This is a great method when jamming any chord progression
HI Ian , nice to see you back. Its funny how we all seem to know more than we think but struggle to use it. When you point out this simple idea its like a light bulb goes on and we think why did I know put that together in my mind!! Thanks Ian well done and enjoy your vacation. Ian
Aweaome tip sir! Helps alot of beginners like me.
I like this approach. I appreciate you explaining it.
Good to see you again.
Thank You! Thank you soo much. I have been playing for years and your videos are so helpful. I have never understood soloing until your videos. 🙏😌
Oh my ! I once was blind , but now ….
Weeeeeee !
You have majorly enlightened me . Thank you.!!
Excellent lesson in a slow easy way to understand.
Thanks, Ian. It's always a welcome sight to see one of your videos pop up in my feed. Great lesson. Looking forward to seeing more new videos. Keep them coming, please.
A+
I have watched a lot of videos and there is something about your method of teaching or explaining that rings well and is easy to comprehend and understand. Much appreciated.
Stitch has such a respectful, soothing voice. Good stuff 👍👍
Missed you, buddy! This is exactly the thing I have been working on / struggling with. Great timing!
Absolutely one of the best explained and easiest to understand lessons I have evvver had the pleasure to watch and listen to. A few minutes, yet worth yeeears of struggles. Thank You sooo much. 🙏🙏🙏😊😊😊
Excellent lesson!!! Thank you.
That was the most helpful thing I’ve ever seen on guitar. Thank you. I’m blown away. It’s like I should have thought of it, so simple. 🙌❤️🤙
The best chord soloing lesson I’ve watched on RUclips. Thank you!
I feel like I've been at a roadblock, this is exactly the lesson I need. I'm self taught and learned by tabs so I have the dexterity I just need the methodology
Once again.....the Master Stitch.... gives is wonderful priceless enlightenment 🎸👌🏼
Wow man. You made this make sense to me finally!!! Thank you!! Love your channel, you’re awesome
Best lessons ever! No one explains better than you. Thanks.
Dude! I needed this so badly right now. Thank You!
Yes, great breakdown of keeping with the chord changes, making it come together of what we learned.
Loved the lesson. Thank you. Take care.
This is great. Thank you.
Really emphasizes what I kept hearing when I first started playing: "to be good at lead guitar you first have to be good at rhythm guitar." Starting from the chords and emphasizing different tones to make melodies
Thank you so much for this great video!
You are so welcome!
Well, that was super helpful! Thank you sir, you always make it simple and straightfoward
