Whoa this is crazy, because you can jam out with position 3 of major penta at major chord and position 3 of the minor penta as those chords are being played...I love it when things finally start clicking.
You can also play the 3 minor and the 2 minor in the same fret space. Then the 4 bared one fret down then the fifth barred 2 frets blow the 4th. Its quite versatile.
you could take this a step further and do the very same thing with each letter of Caged and corresponding Pentatonic scales. would seem useful when targeting specific chord tones as opposed to just playing pentatonic. Basically this example is C Shape Pentatonic in D/Bm, G/Em, and C/Am with c major shaped arpeggios
Every time i think i know all the fretboard “tips and tricks” you gotta go and blow my mind 🤣 👊🏽 Great stuff you should make a youtube playlist and put all the fretboard revelation type videos there.
Using your method, when you’re mapping out the key of C, the 1 is no longer in the middle? Skip a space past the form, you can grab the 4 on the fifth fret. Than slide down two frets, and grab the 5 on the seventh fret. Kind of the same as finding the root on the 6th string and the 4 & 5 on the 5th string vs. the root, 4 & 5 on one string or close to the nut?
I really enjoyed that lesson, Erich. Thank you!

While this C-shape/Am-shape pattern adjacency obviously exists, I am not sure that it is particularly useful as a "basic" concept in chord/key/CAGED/pentatonic theory. It's just an idiosyncrasy of the fretboard structure. The more useful relationship is that between the E-form and A-form major/minor chords we use most often. That is, between the locations of the E-form major (1-chord) and its relative E-form minor /A-form minor (6-chord, 2 locations). And similarly between locations of the A-form major (1-chord) and its relative A-form minor/E-form minor (6-chord, 2 locations). While they are not immediately adjacent like the C-form and Am-form shown here, the E-form and A-form chords are those that most players are more familiar with and will use most often.
Well it blew my mind cause I never looked at it like this. Does each pentatonic form have one open chord form you can do this with? Now I want to go figure that out LOL. Great lesson😃
Cool theory but very hard for me to finger chords except in home (7th) position. I need so much more practice, moveable chords are still quite difficult to make sound right.
Oh , I was calling the A minor pentatonic on fifth fret the “1st form”. I think others are looking at that as the 3rd form? So, my last comment probably made no sense?
What tool do you use to build fretboard diagrams like that? I'd like to make my own. Most I've seen show the notes, but I'm more interested in studying the intervals in this style, so would like to build a similar diagram for the main keys. (And yeah, this diagram can be shifted for any key, but it's nice to print out a G, C, A, Bm, etc. to reduce the mental gymnastics in study).
Erik sorry, but you didn't blow my mind. I think it is because you studied classical, and other music theory that you missed out on the boys band stuff. Back in the 50s and 60s many songs had this pattern and style that we teenagers found and played all of the time, an that is why the reverb sounds right too. I can play that all of the day, I just want to learn the why and how. Thank you.
Gary, yes, I’ve used this for years as well. The point of this video is to show that you can use it in three different places on the neck over the 1, 4 and 5 chords. I’ve never seen a video that taught this nor seen it in a book. It’s something that I discovered on my own.
@@yourguitarsage Well, if you were not into heavy metal then you would have caught that exact intro played just that way, with just one note that you played that was off from near perfect, but we all need to catch up, and I am learning why my ear could play those lines, but I didn't put a number to them just chord names. Thanx for the vid.
@@yourguitarsage Hey, that could make you go blind back then. LOL I am looking to purchase a couple Tee Shirts but I do not see the original logo, with you and the top hat and chin whiskers.
Hi Eric, I love all your guidance, it's awesome. I tried your new link: ProJamTracks: www.projamtracks.com but when I went to it I got a caution notice: Your connection is not private ..Attackers might be trying to steal your information from www.projamtracks.com Just thought you should know.
Can I make one suggestion without sounding like a jerk? When you change too plain something different Dan they open chords can you say what Fred you are putting your fingers on? I listen to these videos on my phone and I say listen because I am blind. So when you say play this shape but play it here it would be nice to know where here is. Just a suggestion thanks
@Ken M Back in the beginning for me which was almost a year ago, and before I did the Thirty Free lessons I was lost too! I personally have, and use UGS Pro now, and while I'm by no stretch a pro it makes learning and understanding the concepts much easier. Get the free lessons and don't skip anything, and with a little time it will make sense.
Saw this pattern when I was studying Jazz and the Diatonic Chord progression.
Another great quick hit....great job Erich!
Whoa this is crazy, because you can jam out with position 3 of major penta at major chord and position 3 of the minor penta as those chords are being played...I love it when things finally start clicking.
Discovered you last week, and you've quickly become my go-to YT guitar instructor. Thank you.
👊🏻thank you, Craig.
Erich, as always, I appreciate you passing on the knowledge... Thanks much..
You can also play the 3 minor and the 2 minor in the same fret space. Then the 4 bared one fret down then the fifth barred 2 frets blow the 4th. Its quite versatile.
Cool! The elusive pattern that I Could not see clearly until now! Thanks!
Your hacks are the best!! All my favorite lessons and tutorials of yours are the hacks you come up with. Genius!!! Thank you for all you do Sage!!
👍🙏
Great lesson! Some truly useful info. Put CAGED in an understandable relation to I, IV, V and soloing. Thanks!
This is definitely mind-blowing, without a doubt! Thanks Erich!
Patterns to simplify patterns. That's some savory food you're sharing there, Erich.
Good stuff! Thx Erich!👍🎸

Exactly!!
That was so mindblowing that I had to watch it several times. Truly epic lessons Erich, truly epic.
🔥👊🏻🙏

👊🏻🔥🤗
Great lesson. Very helpful. Would like to see more of putting the caged chords together. Thank you.
Awesome lesson!
Yes, fretboard is full of such a crazy things
Great lesson.

This was great. I’m slowly getting it💝🙏👍
Mind blown !!
Right on., man thank you.....
WOW thats awesome Erich your a legond
Over my head. Back to ugs standard for another run through.
I really enjoyed that lesson, Erich. Thank you!

Yep they all have a chord form
Dude u always blow our minds so... Proceed(billy madison voice 😆)
My brain is on fire
swweeet lesson dude....
Man you are too cool, For real. Love it,.,
Cool theory but very hard for me to finger chords except in home (7th) position. I need so much more practice, moveable chords are still quite difficult to make sound right.
Do the course Its worth it
Do you have such tricks about making extended chords like 7 or 9?
Indeed! That one should be released in a few weeks.
So does the 3rd pentatonic form go with E open chord form? ( you cannot get 4th and 5th chord same way).
Please Erick, Darron 👇🏻has a very very important request... Thanks for your teaching 🙏🏻🇫🇷👍🏼🍒
WOW!!!!!!!!!

You don't sound like a jerk. Nothing but love here!
You lost me. Came to learn some patterns but all I'm hearing is alphabet soup.

Too many of these lessons are keeping me from focusing on a single skill. Information overload is killing my progress. Great lesson though.
Then stop watching and practice, brotha. 👊🏻
@@yourguitarsage I'm a UGS Pro member so I will focus on that. Turned off notifications and unsubscribed here. Hopefully that will help.
Ha ha I have the same problem John. It's hard to focus sometimes, there's so much great info out there.
You need to do some Spectral Editing to get rid of those string squeaks. You're welcome.
Beginners always worried about string squeaks. It’s a guitar.
@@yourguitarsage LOL
You said 541. Why are you sh 1 4 5?
Awesome!!! Mind blown and opened to another way of seeing the fretboard! Thanks Eric!
