I watched this video 4 months ago and have been practicing these exercises since and my knowledge and skills have improved MASSIVELY.
Thank you Ross for sharing your expertise in a easy to understand manner.
This is hard guys but it's totally the right method! This is how pros think, that's it.
You're right this is extremely hard and there's more than one way to bake a cake my friend the five octave shapes are the best way to learn all the notes on the fretboard with in the five octave shapes are the patterns and the chords five for major five for minor five for dominant seventh five for major 7th and five for minor 7th you need to learn the major scale first in the five patterns up and down the fretboard after you know this is very easy to move things around also learn the relative minor of every major scale once you start doing this way everything becomes very easy
@@dommirra5429 i'd rather like to learn how to become a master baker than just a baker. when you learn shapes that's all you learn... shapes. Sure you'll probably learn how to improvise but... Take Stevie Ray Vaughn for example. His string broke mid concert. He kept playing because he knew how to work around it. When you learn notes you learn the guitar. you learn music. you understand it. I want to break everything down to the root not take shortcuts
I have played for years off and on. For the majority of my life I’ve spent all efforts on just learning other people’s songs. I’m almost 42, love music and can’t put the guitar down. I have spend countless hours practicing scales/modes and have made a tremendous amount of progress. There was something missing. I’ve seen this video before but purchased part 1 of this last night. Within a short time today I’m halfway through really knowing the fretboard. I’m going to stick with this course heavily until completion then get part 2 at full price. I did take advantage of a discount for part 1 and regret it. This method is worth its weight in gold. I’ve been on Jam Play for months, Artistworks with Paul Gilbert for about the same and have picked up a lot but this is going to really open up doors nothin else has so far. Thank you for the awesome information!
Anyone on the fence about purchasing the courses? Don’t be! The information he has presented in just the first 20 minutes or so is worth so much more for what you will pay.
Agree. Shapes are a dead end. Learn the notes, intervals and you have a solid foundation. I think this will give you the biggest aha moment in your life 💥🎸
We The Creatives that’s how I’ve gotten too where I am in my playing. Every song I learn I learn what it is that I like about that song. The root note, then I can always play that song differently and solos different each time. I try to write my music the same way. So I can always play things new while staying in the same key. John Mayer/ Joe Bonamassa/ SRV/ CLAPTON where and are prime examples of people that can do this effortlessly
I can already see myself swearing at you while doing this each morning in the next quarter.
Thanks a lot!
For anyone struggling with this exercise, you can start with your pentatonic scale shapes instead of the full major scale. Removing those 2 notes really helped me find my footing on the fretboard a lot faster. And once you've got that down, you can add the other 2 notes back in to increase the challenge and your mastery!
This is the way. All the best notes are in the pentatonics and you chunk it down to a more manageable activity. Win win.
Do you happen to have a link to doing this with the pentatonic scale? I'm struggling to recognize the shapes/patterns to know which one for each note/key.
@@joshtpa if Mando played guitar (and I believe he does) … “This is the Way” 🦾
Genius. Thanks for this suggestion!
I learned this from your course last year, helped me improve waaay more than I expected it to. Now that I'm almost done with part 1 of your course I'll get started with part 2 soon. Amazing work as always, thank you Ross!
A great video that is needed by many to see. Thank you, Ross!
This is crazy helpful! Can't wait to start working on this. Thanks Ross!
I've been practicing my triads like this, inspired by this video. For example, today I'm going through first inversion triads, from bottom strings to top, and through the cycle of 4ths. Since they are first inversion, it forces me to think both about the chord structure as well as the location of the major third throughout the neck. It's hard at first but it gets you working.
Superb lesson! This is incredibly useful information and I’m so glad you’re working with major scales as the format. Cheers 👌
Imo, this is the most concise, to the point method that makes total sense. How I wish I’d had this many years ago. Thank you, Ross
Thanks for this lesson and explaining your fretboard learning method. I just discovered your channel this morning and really liked your material. Will be joining your website.
Loved this video man, a really helpful lesson that is just what I needed to learn next. Thanks for the great content!
Outstanding video! Ross nails the framework of thinking that is critical to developing fluidity and becoming a professional on the instrument.
In my view the best lesson on this topic on RUclips. Thanks! Also for your two bullet courses. Brilliant.
This video was absolutely amazing. Have no clue how i never tried this myself to be more familiar with the fretboard but i haven't. Thanks dude for real
this is the stuff that makes you elevate as a guitar player man, thanks so much for this!!!
Havent seen videos from you for a long time. Glad youre back. Great tutorials. Please create more
I’ve watched many of your videos. you always have great advices... much thanks !
just got your course. Thanx for the hard work
Dude. You are killing it. Thank you for this video!!! I've done some of my own methods for this. You're approach is blowing my mind / opening up new ideas / sections of my brain!
Love the 4ths on each string exercise that you do! I'm going to use that with my students!!!
Ross, very often, after becoming, clear, on learning something, I realize that I feel that I should have known that. It helps to watch your instruction. Thank you!💯
Very helpful video! A lot of thanks to you!
Great lesson Ross. Teaching guitarists what they need to know, instead of what they think they need
Awesome video. This is exactly the thing I've been struggling with, and I look forward to giving this practice technique a go. Thanks Ross!!!
That's a great lesson...I've been playing guitar for many years... I know a decent amount of theory and patterns, circle of fifths, scales, modes, etc.... But have never until now thought to apply this concept... This lesson is gold! Thank you, looking forward to the new practice style. I wish I had come across this concept years ago.
This is great. Thank you so much
amazing video Ross ,tahnkyou. I want your course!
Excellent. Just what I needed. Thank you!
Wow this is perfect for where I am at! I am going to work on this right away. Thank you for this!
Your didactics really works for me. You are a great teacher. Ant the right one for me! Keep It coming, and I wish you all the success in the world!
Fantastic lesson and demo.Thank you very much.
Thank you. This is a great method for me Subscribed 😊
Great stuff Ross, awesome material and clarity. I will consider buying your subscription material. Thanks!
Great lesson thanks 🙏
This has been a great lesson to help improve my knowledge around the notes on the fretboard. Really makes me think right now but looking forward to it all becoming automatic one day.
This makes so much sense thank you!!
thank you Ross. very powerful.
i will pursue
Good video! It's not one of those lessons that you master and or see results in a day or a week, but something that, with months of practice, makes sense!
Brilliant lesson, thanks!
Always good stuff..thanks
I'm right in that intermediate level and you're spot on.
I have the bulletproof guitar course and it's great! If you want more lessons like this definitely get involved with this course.
I reckon this will work. Makes perfect sense, aside from how important the 4ths are in Jazz, each string within a fret is a 4th apart, b string can talk a walk.
Thanks!
Powerful lesson! I’m glad I’m at a point that I understand the viability of it.
Love your stuff Ross. Id give a shout out to all self taught guitar players to buy your course : bullet proof guitar player . I feel free while improvising and while collaborating with musicians now , I have more tools to express myself and my playing has improved 10 fold since I started the course .
Great work for the musician community man! Keep it coming :)
I love this comment. Thank you so much!
I got your bulletproof course a while ago. Gotta say, dude, the production quality here is outstanding. Glad to see you progress! Great teacher with genuine passion
Thank you so much!
I dig his personality. He has a very in inviting tone that makes it comfortable to learn.
Awesome man!!
This is so awesome Ross! Great content! Your killin it! Been playin 20yrs and this is it! CAGED is familiar and TNPS is closer but this is it! You’re awesome man! Cheers!
This is really good! Very clever. Another wee fun method I came up with was going up and down some basic scales like C, F and G major but playing them 1 note per string
Great vid! Hal Galper and Carol Kaye mentioned that for old jazz cats, Co4ths was "the cycle" and Cof5ths was the back cycle, obviously because II-V-I chord progression used in jazz improv.
Excellent, Ross, thanks!
Great exercise!
Okay,I understand now. I just haven’t seen that before.
I think there is really something for me in this lesson. Thanks!
Fabulous clarity…
Thanks brother
Excellent lesson!! 👍👌
Excellent lesson!
Bruh.. this might just unlock everything. I've been playing for like 10+ years now and I feel like I've been stuck for like 5. This is a great exercise as it sounds really great, it kind of makes sense in your head and feels good. Thank you! I think I'm going to go hard at this exercise as isn't just droning chromatic notes that feel like it needs to be rote memorization. This makes it rewarding.
This is great!
Thanks for this Ross. I must admit i strayed from my Udemy course, had the problems you mention but back on it now and improving fast.
Excellent ! Really GREAT Guitar Channel
Wow thats a good way of looking at it. I'll draw this and practise this. But never forget the harmonic minor.
I have watched your youtube videos a lot and have got a lot out of them thank you ! Just bought parts 1 and 2 of the course so bring it on :) lets see if I can get any better lol
very good video bro. I will be buying your part 1 and 2. thanks for sharing ! bless you.
Awesome study...top notch.
I love the idea of playing the 12 maj. scales from the same area of the fretboard. The circle of fourths seems like a great way to learn the fretboard. I take it the 7 positions you mention refer to intervalic theory and the 7 church modes. It will take me some practicing to do the 12 scales in under a minute, lol.
I play *A LOT* of 'jazz!!' Thanks Ross, always great videos.
Great video!
You just blew my mind with that all 12 scale exercise.
man, your approach and method is great. love your lessons even though we're from very different guitar style. good job mate !
Thank you!
Best lesson on RUclips about mastering the fretboard (and there are many)
Awesome !!
Brilliant!
Thank you
Back after a week. This was a missing link that helped me understand a lot more than just 4ths. I found using the CAGED system to visualise what chord fits in with each scale in the position, that really helped give me better anchor points than just the root notes. *if that made any sense. Big thanks! Giant steps seems a lot less giant now.
very good for me, thx
I wish I could like this video twice! Once for the great exercise and teaching style, and once for the awesome Los Pollos Hermanos mug.
Dude this was LEGENDARY info! It makes SO MUCH sense to me and I'm gonna woodshed the shit out of it. Thank you again Ross.
Great stuff.
Wow, My real practice begins. thanks man,
I'm really impressed with your style of explanation and teaching - it's the clearest, most no-nonsense approach I've found online.
Thank you!
Dope lesson.
great video!
Man...its seems every time I start to get into one method, another comes along and blows it out of the water. Its so overwhelming. Wish I had some sort of detailed practice schedule for learning this approach. Looks like the holy grail, but also a hell of a lot of work.
Time to get some pen and paper out and work it out!
This is just another application of all the other methods.
@Daniel Drago YUUUUUUP. I use the sweeping scales all the time. :-)
Learn the 12 major scales. Do this with
A pencil and paper! If you can'twrite them down....then how can you play them?
Once you know them...then and only then you can apply them to the fretboard.
Name notes in conrext to the key.
Learn the whole notes ABCDEFG.
Then learn each key in context to the fretboard. Is F sharp the same as G flat?
Sounds the same but one must call it by two different names! Confusing for sure.
However if viewed in context to a key....much easier.
@@shannonconrad4988 one of the most sensible thing I've heard in a long time (from a music perspective)
I really like your aproach, i will try this practice routine from now on. Thanks you so much. I wish i had had acces to this knowledge 25 years ago!
Thank you!
Incredible
Been diving into visualizing all the pentatonic shapes. Might have to try this but use the pentatonic shapes instead.
I think one of the coolest things IS that I’ve played 20 yrs and it hasn’t been wasted. It sucks that I didn’t know this sooner but catching up comes faster than a beginner! I’ve watched this like 10 times...lol...along with the Eric Johnson and Mateus vids! Very grateful Ross! Ty bro
Glad to hear it! Thank you :)
Excellent video, Ross. It's so nice to see someone actually providing substance, instead of clickbait, it's evident you actually have something worthwhile to teach and genuinely want to see enthusiasts get "it". Solid, man. All class. WIll definitely be checking out your website.
Just bought your course a few weeks ago. Fucking amazing man!!
Thanks Ross you have connected the dots and i`m hungry to pick up the Axe again when i can afford to spend money i aint got for a guitar, perhaps an acoustic so i can busk up some change for a vintage V100 & Roland Cube. I gave up because i got fed up playing by myself and being let down by empty arrangements to collaborate. It be a shame to waste the years i put into the skill. Thanks again pal
There is a only one pattern to the 12 scales starting form the notes B and Bb. A little tough to visualize on a six string guitar. Diagramming the scales on a 7 string guitar makes the pattern clear. The scale pattern shifts by one string each time as you work through the circle of fourths. The string shift follows the 7 church modes in order: Ionian, Mixo, Dorian, Aeolian, Phyrigian, Locrian, Lydian and repeats till you get to 12.
Once I sort out my studio, I'm getting BPGP. It's about time I get some theory under my belt.
I got this from your Udemy course, very helpful! Oh, I was the first ‘like’ too :) Regards from Madrid!
This is the video that should be in the Udemy Part 1 Master the Fretboard Course. It is communicated much clearer here.
I tried to learn all notes on the fret board by heart. I failed. This method makes sense, is more musical and easier. I needed this years ago!!!
You play it twice and you are a genius!!
