In this lesson I want to show you why it's so important to learn your major scales starting from every finger on every string in every position. Knowing how to do this confidently can help you have a deeper understanding of harmony, make more interesting rhythm guitar parts and play better solos.
If you want to take some next steps from this lesson go checkout my Major Scales Fundaments Guitar Course. Even if you know a few major scales and have been playing for awhile this course can help you fill in some blind spots and give you a new perspective.

Such a great course. I was well versed in going up and down the neck, playing the major scale and am learning a ton from this course. It's a decent amount cof work, with a fairly immediate and clear.

As someone who started on keyboards, I got used to being able to see the notes of the scale within the chord every time I played a chord. It makes so much sense to know this on guitar too.

Your method of teaching is logical and straightforward… and just fantastic !

[@scotyount6226]

You just broke my brain...but in a good good way.

The major scales course is SO helpful. I’ve been playing major scales one way for the past 20 years. This is the essential perspective I was missing. Thanks, Jason.

[@uberjam-sam8512]

Agreed - I thought I was too advanced for the major scale course but have found it to be rewarding.

great lesson jason. the demo of making a complete “statement” is so simple since we all speak and intuitively know what what means yet so hard to remember to do or try to do on the guitar…partly cuz we dont have to breathe to play and also not really knowing the chord tones vs the tension notes on a deep level.
btw is that a bluesbreaker amp behind u and when do u use that?? what kind of gig?

You seem so much happier teaching here than on Truefire... ❤

Still love those folks at TF and wish them the best but there is a mountain of reasons why it's better for most educators to do this on their own.

Dig it… what’s the dif between a sus2 and add9 ?

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

Distance from the root. Sus2 needs to be a step away and an add 9 needs to be well… 9 scale steps away

[@Chuck-Steak]

Sus2 replaces the 3rd. (Ex: Csus2=C D G) Add9 adds the 9th and also keeps the 3rd. (Ex: Cadd9=C E G D or C D E G)
In other words, a sus2 chord is a triad built on the 1 2 5 major scale tones. The add9 is a 4-note chord built on the major triad adding the major 9th tone.
In the add9 context, I think it's safe to see the 9th and 2nd as the same thing since the nomenclature seems to be a way of simplifying the presence of both the 2nd and the 3rd and also doesn't require the 9th voice to actually be a literal 9th from the root in the voicing when also keeping the 3rd.

[@JoePariseauMusic]

"Sus" replaces the 3rd (the chord is neither major or minor).
"Add" keeps the 3rd (both major & minor).
