Im 56 and have been learning all the shapes for years and positions but this video finally put the pieces together for me , this is one of those rare days playing that is a awakening a aha moment , thank you so much for this video
Fantastic! Glad to hear it helped. There's lots more like it on the channel and on our Patreon www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver Thanks for watching!
Exactly. I'm 55. I'm definitely can play. But the puzzle is solved and my Major side of life on guitar is made so much easier. Can't get enough of this. Rock on.
I'm almost 70 years of age, and have a mild form of autism, wherebye my brain cannot remember certain things. All my life Iv'e wanted to play guitar solos. After watching this video and noticing that it relates to visual patterns rather than relating to sequences, I feel more confident in my efforts, Im sure this will help a lot of people... Thank you.
Dude! U r proof it's NEVER too late! Never give up on your dreams! Well done! I decided @ 60 that I wanted to learn to play lead guitar. The big secret: WANT it - and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE (not to sound psychotic, but it's amazing how much better you play after 5 consecutive hours). Even my son(!) asked why I wasn't famous! Keep it up, Jeff! All the Best! As for GLV - you are SO relaxed in this video - and that makes us ALL calm the F down and focus on what you're teaching. Top notch! Cheers.
@@eziosuncle3018 I agree, wanting it sure makes a difference, and having fun practicing. If you're having fun too, then you're more likely to put in the practice. Thanks!
Nice !! Really like the way you broke this down !!! All with a great vibe too !! You didn't shred for 30sec. and scream and stick your tongue out. I hate that and he's popular. Anywho, great lesson. I'm in !!!!
There are only a very small handfull that teach on this site that can remember what it was like to not get it, but they speak French and I speak English, or so it may as well be.,You speak the language of the average player, beginner to, some of us that have been playing for years with fakeable shredability in public, but don't understand how to break out of the " Easy shape" , and thank you for calling it that. Honestly, I wish some of these "teachers" could watch one of your videos and realize, We ain't stupid. we just need it explained right. You get it. Bravo!.
Mind blown. Such a clear-cut visualization that provides you with so much information at a glance. You are right, you will never get lost! Bravo. So why is no one else teaching this?
Light Bulb 💡 moment... pentatonics rooted on the 6th string, shape 1 back to shape 5... Then rooted on the 5th string... shape 4 back to shape 3... very cool 😊
I've been playing for decades & have encountered several of the concepts you discussed here in past videos posted by other RUclips teachers. None of them have put them together in such a clear & concise manner as you have here. Thank you! You have just become my favorite RUclips guitar instructor. Pardon the pun, but you rock dude!
Just adding to what’s already said but feel strongly about how valuable your content has been for me. I’m an intermediate player for 25+ years who’s been inspired to really learn the instrument for the first time. I’ve found lots of great content but none that so clearly lays out a way to think and visualize the way you have. You’re clearly a great teacher and I’m so grateful to have found your content. It’s been the quickest route from theory to playtime. I’ll keep doing the work but you’ve made it way more fun. Thank you!
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver If you didn't already have my full attention, you would now, by 1. Even taking the time to respond, and 2. Responding in such a timely fashion. Very impressive. I went to your website and quickly discovered that your schedule is full, both in person (which wouldn't work for me anyway) and online. When combined with your YT channel, I'm sure it leaves you with very little time on your hands. Now we don't know each other in the least and far be it for me to offer up any advice to you, but clearly, your style of teaching is in high demand. So I'm left wondering if you have or are currently considering some type of Video program that would allow you to leverage yourself out to a much greater student base. Perhaps even several so as to appeal to a wide range of students according to their skill level. I read your questionnaire on your website and I believe you have the ability to create a program that would benefit each category that students may fall under. And, each program could be progressive to the next one. I'm just spit-balling here. Thanks again for the quick response.
@@roymccarty6931 Thanks Roy! I am indeed working on that and more. I'm starting a Patreon very soon, just need to set up some things first. It might be later this week. And then at some point I will be finishing Book 2 to go with my "Guitar Soloing Like a Pro" book, and.... hopefully a video series based on those books. So lots planned, but of course, it's always just a matter of having the time to do it. Thanks for your encouragement 🙂
Thank You Sooooo much for showing an easy to understand method of navigating the fretboard, I am 67 years young and have been playing mostly chords with some fills between since I was a teenager. Couldn't seem to grasp how to play leads or riffs without confusion and frustration. You have changed all that, It's fun to learn at any age and now my son and I can play together and I can do some of the lead parts as well. I really enjoy your channel and your method of teaching. Be well my friend.
Man, I tell ya Blue; you have a friend beautiful way of teaching. I've played bass most of my life and took up guitar since the cove lockup. Taken a shot ton of lessons online and man you've become way one of my favorite. Love your work and appreciate what you put into it. Thank you so much from Edmonton!!
This is the best video on moving around the fret board I have ever seen. Super easy to understand. Funny B string really resonates with me. Always been the hardest shape to remember. Not anymore ❤
You are a brilliant TEACHER. There are lots of guys who just show what they can do, but you can truly teach. A great teacher can simplify a complex subject and make it accessible. A bad teacher views others as competition, holds back and obfuscates.
I have been playin' guitar for 20+ years and find your lessons thoughtful and useful. Some of the things you point out give me this "a-ha!" moment and "why didn't I ever notice that" moment. Cheers from Kentucky~!
For some reason the fog clears when I watch your lessons and I 'get it' and am able to progress with a smile on my face when I pick up my guitar....which is getting harder and harder to put down! Thank you for the clarity that you present and I can say that your book 'Guitar Soloing Like a Pro' is presented in a similar way, and I encourage people to buy the book...they will never regret it. Have a great weekend, I know I will now!!!
Ok. Found Blue only a few weeks ago and he immediately made a huge positive impact. I bought his book as a way to say thanks. Now wondering, what’s the best way to use the book and the videos. Is there a process or a pattern to follow so they compliment each other. Hopefully Blue can shed some light but either way THANKS for your lessons.
So much to absorb, but WOW, when all the pieces come together ... 🤯 Mind blown !!! Blue, you have such a relaxed and friendly style of teaching. I'm loving it.
Good lord man. I’ve spent all this time (decades) noodling around stuck in easy shape and extended shape because I was afraid I’d get lost. This was a eureka moment. Thanks! Subscribed.
It's no surprise that your channel is doing well. Your teaching technique is very practical, clear, and workable. You have been helping me to understand the fretboard. Thank you very much. Please keep the videos coming!!
I've watched a ton of these videos and usually come away scratching my head. Not so today. You have done an amazing job of explaining how to build a solo in any key, and you did it in a manner that even this simple-minded grandpa can grasp. Thank you! Now if I could just put it all together the way you do.
Very helpful thank you ! You make it all make sense and it gives one the direction you need to practice the pentatonic scales both minor and major. I love it!
Another great lesson. I have been using the fret markers/dots on the E and A strings to find the notes. So on E string I use G,A,B as my reference points and on A string I use C,D,E to find the notes. I like what you have done here to locate the shapes. I had been playing E minor pentatonic key mostly starting on 12th fret so your method really helps me now to start lower on the fretboard.
Great stuff, Blue. Many thanks. I often find so-called 'shortcuts' or 'tricks' to be more trouble than they are worth, but this lesson was very helpful to me.
Just found your channel. It just popped up on my feed.. I subscribed. Great lesson. It took me years to learn this on my own before You Tube but your video really makes it easy and you should have way more subscribers. I like the repetition, it makes the info sink in. You asked for ideas, one I always look for is playing 12 bar blues and how to solo over the chord changes. I know there are notes to look for or you can change into the root position and play a little there but I still struggle. Playing over the 5 chord is my enemy, it never works out for me. I also like how you string the boxes together. I also liked how you force people out of position 1 as thats where we usually get stuck... Great video , keep them coming..
Great video! I know that easy shape and the extensions and how to do that run easily, but I never knew I could connect it with all of these other shapes. I'll be watching this multiple times in the coming weeks
Hey, Blue. Your approach to teaching really resonates with my current ability. Like some of the other posters here, I’m well into my 60’s and consider myself to be a perennial beginner. But since discovering you & becoming a Patreon customer, my abilities have markedly improved. I love your little catch phrases like “easy shape”, “extension shape”, “symmetrical shape” & the most awesome is the “pinky /pointer” concept to move between minor & major pentatonics. Thanks so much.
I commented a while ago about how I like your strategy of giving each shape a memorable name. It’s been much easier than giving the patterns #s because going from Major to Minor gets confusing. I call the “funny B string shape” the “stair case shape” because of the 3 high strings. Great lesson Blue!
I have seen millions of YT videos but this lesson really stands out. I thought I knew the best YT teachers until now… I have subscribed to your Patreon after watching some more videos. There is so much to learn. Congrats for your style , your approach, the visuals, the music, etc… excellent job.
Thank you Blu Morris! I don’t know how you got in my feed but this lesson laid out exactly what I’d need trying to figure out in my head at this moment in time. Thank you! Your lessons are great.
You are the Best. Thank you, Mind blowing, Eye opening. Please keep it up. And thank you again. I will have to see this video many times because it has a lot of great information! and because I was not such good guitar payer, until I found you,
Blue Man, you have a laid back way off teaching that seems to get your topic across easier than many instructors. Ive learned many simplified techniques from you, bravo
Hey blue, this is again super cool! I have used both systems for long now but never connected them using the root on the a string. Keep up the good work and thanks a lot for your videos. Highly appreciated :-)
I know the 5 pentatonic shapes and I love how you explain them in this video. Your diagrams make the concepts very clear. This video gives me confidence to start soloing and have some fun. Thank you so much. I'm so glad I found you online. Craig Ewinger
Oh man! i put together charts a few years ago when i started teaching myself, this affirms a lot of what i thought and just helped me click SO much together. Don't know how long i've had this video in the 'watch later', but man am i happy to be watching it now. Thank you so much
I started understanding a lot of things, which seemed abstract to me for quite a while, after watching your videos, so you started unlocking for me the whole chain of unconnected things which I was not able to connect myself
This is great Blue! I’m ok with the different shapes now but when connecting them up musically, I get stuck & panic, until now! This really helps me to visualise where I am on the fretboard. Thanks for this tutorial buddy 👍🏻🏴🎸
Thank you that's great to hear! Everything can become clear over time. Lots more lessons like this on the channel and our Patreon group www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Another older beginner here. Great lesson, great teacher! I’ve been blindly just learning the 5 shapes but had no idea how to apply them. Some teachers show little pieces to play as “tricks” or riffs but not bigger picture of the shape where they came from. This really pulled it together for me. Also very clever how you break concepts into 2s, then those two into 2s so everything seems connected not memorization. Thanks!
This is one of the best tutorial i watched. As a beginner studying solo. This explanation enlighten my mind about how to use the 5 pattern run on a fretboard. Good explanation compare to the other tutorial i watch.🤩👍
May I just say that you are a fantastic teacher. I'm not a beginner really but neither am I an intermediate player. I was finding it impossible to navigate the fretboard. Have watched some of your lessons on this and am starting to understand a little better. Thank you very much.
Thanks for watching 😊 Find out more about my instructional books at www.bluemorris.com/shop

All about simplifying and visualysing! You are a genius among guitar teachers Blue! Thanks for rethinking those concepts and making sense of them ❤
Glad to hear! Thank you for saying!
Really well done. Clear, concise, understandable. Thankyou!
Thanks 🎸 😊

I started understanding a lot of things, which seemed abstract to me for quite a while, after watching your videos, so you started unlocking for me the whole chain of unconnected things which I was not able to connect myself
Another great video. Thanks very much for explaining the things in this way to get a better understanding.
Thank you! I'm hoping to launch a Patreon with more content like this very soon. Announcement this week.
This is great Blue! I’m ok with the different shapes now but when connecting them up musically, I get stuck & panic, until now! This really helps me to visualise where I am on the fretboard. Thanks for this tutorial buddy 👍🏻🏴🎸
Great! Glad it helped 👍
Good stuff, thanks!
Thanks again for watching 🎸
Thank you. Love the way you get concepts across. You remove the 'cobwebs' and help 'declutter' many years of learning on you tube.
Thank you that's great to hear! Everything can become clear over time. Lots more lessons like this on the channel and our Patreon group www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Thanks for this lesson, it really helped out.
Glad to hear it!
Another older beginner here. Great lesson, great teacher! I’ve been blindly just learning the 5 shapes but had no idea how to apply them. Some teachers show little pieces to play as “tricks” or riffs but not bigger picture of the shape where they came from. This really pulled it together for me. Also very clever how you break concepts into 2s, then those two into 2s so everything seems connected not memorization.
Thanks!
Great to hear thank you! Lots more lessons on the channel 👍
You are a top notch RUclips teacher

I love this guy’s teaching style
Thank you! New lesson out tomorrow 🎸
Great material!! Muchas gracias
Gracias Edgardo!
This is one of the best tutorial i watched. As a beginner studying solo. This explanation enlighten my mind about how to use the 5 pattern run on a fretboard. Good explanation compare to the other tutorial i watch.🤩👍
Awesome, thank you!
May I just say that you are a fantastic teacher. I'm not a beginner really but neither am I an intermediate player. I was finding it impossible to navigate the fretboard. Have watched some of your lessons on this and am starting to understand a little better. Thank you very much.
