If you're a beginner check out this video of my 5 top tips, and the secret to success to get better on guitar faster! ruclips.net/video/wHtJu3f5JP8/видео.html
I was a campfire guitarist 40 years ago, learned ~ 15 chords, no theory, no picking, and quit when life got busy mid-career. I retired recently, bought a new guitar and decided to relearn everything I needed to play well. Your videos are ingenious ways of explaining theory in a very learnable way. Thanks for making this so approachable! I'm a Ricky fan!
Hey Ricky, I'm playing the guitar for 7 years now, never learned much of the theory to be honest. Most of the other RUclips channels want to sell their "Super-Mega-Easy-Step-by-Step-Ultimate-Guitar-Course" and their free courses are often too "vague". I love your teaching style and after these 7 years of playing, stuck in repetition without much progress, I'm finally learning new stuff. I can't thank you enough for your videos! Stay tuned, Greetings from Germany!
Another great lesson ..... you have a wonderful knack of transmitting all this information in an easy to follow way. Thanks Ricky, I'll be forever greatful for your efforts on behalf of us newbies!!!
I’m watching all the videos in the Ricky’s Ultimate RUclips Book 1 back to back again. I can’t recommend it enough for all. The content of your teaching & knowledge is as good as anyone’s. It speaks for itself. I’d like to commend you on your character and professionalism. Case in point, at about the 14:30 mark of this video when the picture froze yet the audio remained. Most of us would have quickly resorted to saucy language or cartoon cursing as an editorial, but not you. You remained gracious throughout! I’m proud of you. Great #%$&@* job !
Brilliant guy and a good teacher. you have tremendous patience to make this video. Since I already knew about CAGED it was easy to follow you. Keep up the good work!!
Always enjoy your videos, I’ve learned so much over the course of my guitar journey by just tuning into your videos. Still have much to learn but thank you for your talents and sharing your knowledge!
Hey Ricky your awesome for only two videos I watched I've learned a lot.thanks a lot and keep up rhe good work I'm now your Filipino fan.from the Philippines.👍👍
FROZEN ! Computer geeks and web designers don't correct this glitch so we all have to rely on them to make our computers ( we don't actually own them, they do) work properly. This could be fixed but it would put them out of work - sounds like the auto industry doesn't it? I now understand why so much of what is taught seems to be related to D shapes on the top three strings - great video.
Cheers Rick, for confirmation,on caged system.,.. I've been barring on top e ,and strumming then using that as the chord..when actually it was not the chord's I thought I was playing.*if u knows what I mean.
Ricky Comiskey I’m not sure to b truthful I’m beginner from May. I can switch now slowly mind u I’ve seen loads of people on youtube mention it as then u know what notes goes together I’m not sure if I need to learn it to help me or just go with flow.Acousticia just a hobby learn some songs I’m not going to write a song etc just to enjoy if makes sense
You don’t need to know the circle of 5ths yet. You need to learn chords to play songs and conquer your hands first. The chords you need are C A G E D Am Em Dm F and Bm. These are what I call the 10 chordmandements.
Hie ricky Do u remember I ASK YOU ABOUT A SONG THE SONG , IS LIKE UR TECHING RIGHT NOW I THANK YOU for ur reaching More mor about hoe to hold a chor in a differen fret Thanks again
@@rickysguitar I just finished watching several of your CAGED videos and I am currently wrapping my head around it. But definitely, if your time allows please do a vid on inversions. I am a 41 yo beginner. Although I can find my way around a piano keyboard (not an expert by any stretch), I decided it is time to learn guitar in order to further develop my music (I dabble in symphonic Rock composing) and i desperately need to know guitar as emulating one on a PC is just not working out. Bass, drums, choirs, symphonic orchestra, vocals and stuff i have it covered. The artificial guitar on the other hand, sounds horrible and i need to record my own tracks. I bought an Yamaha Pacifica just like yours but the one with 2 hummbuckers.

My vote for best caged explanation. Great visual demo

You're the best, my book is on the way. Enjoy and appreciate you! Thank you
Ricky, thanks for another great lesson. I learned so much about the caged system & using the D cord. Can't wait for more of your new lessons!!!!
More lessons on the way my friend. I appreciate your comments immensely :)
Straight forward and entertaining (freeze and all)! Thanks
Always enjoy your videos, I’ve learned so much over the course of my guitar journey by just tuning into your videos. Still have much to learn but thank you for your talents and sharing your knowledge!
This is the first time I understand the caged shapes. You explain it well. Thank you.
Thanks Pat. I appreciate the comment. Good to see you again in the comments my friend :)
Magic lesson Ricky you should have a million subscribers thank you from Anthony in Dublin.
Thank you for posting sir! I recently came across your channel, and your explanations have really helped me.
Regards....
YOU ARE A GREAT MUSIC PROFESSOR. THANK YOU! 👍
Great stuff you give us, Rick. As a beginner, am taking it all in but I think I need to get to know my fret board first.
🎼Thanks for the fine association & Merry Christmas (!)
I love the way you teach Ricky!
Hey Ricky your awesome for only two videos I watched I've learned a lot.thanks a lot and keep up rhe good work I'm now your Filipino fan.from the Philippines.👍👍
God bless you Ricky your a great teacher
Great info, clearly stated. Thanks for 😅your works.

Good morning from Dallas, Tx.
Cheers Rick, for confirmation,on caged system.,.. I've been barring on top e ,and strumming then using that as the chord..when actually it was not the chord's I thought I was playing.*if u knows what I mean.
I often play the first inversion chords by playing a 6m7 and not playing the base note ie for D/F I play a Bm7 because F# is the 5th B.
Your lessons are very good
Well done
RICKY you're a font of knowledge can we have a lesson on finger bones lol
I agree, watched a lot yours r the best
Hey Ricky, I don’t understand the top half & the bottom half of a chord could you explain please. Al
Thanks Ricky.
Can you do minors with moving D
Thanks!
Much appreciated Vincent! 🙏
But if the earth was round and spinning at 1000 mph, you'd be too dizzy to play guitar 😂
I’d still have a go Nick!
Hi Ricky what’s doing my head in is circle of fifths have u got any videos up about it thank u
What do you THINK you need it for?
Ricky Comiskey I’m not sure to b truthful I’m beginner from May. I can switch now slowly mind u I’ve seen loads of people on youtube mention it as then u know what notes goes together I’m not sure if I need to learn it to help me or just go with flow.Acousticia just a hobby learn some songs I’m not going to write a song etc just to enjoy if makes sense

The shapes are nice and the idea of moveable ones are good, but my small hands can’t barre a G, D or C shape 🤦♀️
You don't need to barre! Just play the three notes. The whole of the chord is there.
Bravo
Been watching for a week now Lear t more then using a certain app
Hie ricky
Do u remember I ASK YOU ABOUT A SONG
THE SONG , IS LIKE UR TECHING RIGHT NOW
I THANK YOU for ur reaching
More mor about hoe to hold a chor in a differen fret
Thanks again
the 1 dislike came from a 'flat-earther' :D
Noob question: is this C A G E D thing the inversions of the chords?
No. There are 5 master chord shapes. You know them as C A G E and D Major, hence CAGED. Maybe I should do a video on it?
