Very good lesson. Suggestion; please try to stop the habit of moving the neck of the guitar, even when just playing a chord. We’re trying to see what you’re doing. This lesson is very useful, thanks!
@@jesseglickmusic0:04, and 0:17. It's definitely how you would play it for vibrato, I think they are trying to copy what you are doing note for note. I'd assume that you have viewers that range from novice to more advanced players looking to upgrade their skill set.
@@RyanMatthewsSoundsagreed…. I’d think your demo are probably intermediate and above, who don’t really need their hands held and beginners I would think have a lot of basics to get down first.
Beautiful, especially around 2:40. Steve Howe uses this technique to great advantage throughout "The Revealing Science of God" on "Tales From Topographic Oceans", most notably around the 7:48 and 12:55 marks.
Sixths only really made sense to me once I learned CAGED. In the E shape, the sixth consists of the root note on the high E string and the third on the G string. So even when I play sixths, I still often think CAGED underneath.
This was a great lesson , because your tonic is the E, would this then be in thirds , 🤔 idk. I understand inverted 6 minor 3rd but what makes me think it’s in thirds is that E remains the tonic.. or E major diatonic TRIAD with no 5TH
Yes, you’re correct! These are the root + the third. Just inverted. They’re called sixths, because the two notes are a sixth apart. But you’re not playing the sixth of the chord, you’re playing the third. Same thing behind "sixth chords" that contain the third and fifth of a chord, but inverted so they’re a sixth apart. No root.
You surely reconise this song! 1 - yeah I heard it but can't name it Well how bout this one! 2 - hmm I'm not sure... Well that one you must know, there's no way! 3 - never once heard it in my life...
3 is a guitar player’s classic you’ll hear in any guitar store 2 I also don’t know 1 is pretty popular for wedding bands, but I didn’t know the song until I joined a wedding band
Hey willow! So if you take the root note on the 7th fret, and move it to the 11th fret, that gets you the major 3rd. So you play ring finger 11th fret of the A string, and then bar your index finger across the D, G, and B strings on the 9th fret. This gives you a different way to play and E major chord! (First inversion). Works anywhere you play a bar chord with that shape
Hey Jesse, first time for me. Couple of observations Good on you for staying true on getting the musician to learn the shapes and be comfortable using them. Also this is just a great lesson! I’ve been playing for 55 years and you can consider me subscribed! Thanks again and keep on doing what you’re doing!
what is that glorious amalgamation of steel and wood and art and engineering in your hands? what sorcerer from an advanced alien civilization crafted that ?
This had me thinking too, because I play the intro in regular thirds and not inverted ones. But the rest of the song is pretty much all based on sixths.
Jesse is good at responding, but meanwhile I'll volunteer an answer to your question: The two notes you need to play each time you move up the scale are fragments of chords. Following his example, as you play the scale, you're playing fragments of major, minor and diminished chords. The fret space changes according to whether you're playing a major third interval or a minor third interval. Hope this helps.
I’ve subscribed to and learned a lot of YT guitar channels now. But after seeing this video, I am truly excited about what you’ve opened my learning up to. I am happy to be a new subscriber and anticipating your weekly videos. Thanks bro.

@@corybarnes2341 and either way, no matter what you want to call it, the point of the lesson is to encourage beginners to get the shapes under their fingers!
@@jesseglickmusicThis video is helpful, however Cory Barnes is correct about “Brown Eyed Girl.” It’s OK, you’re young and perhaps had a teacher refer to these as sixths. Definitely not commonly referred to as sixths, because they’re not sixths.
Neither do I... I recognize it so well but can't think of the title... I've searched with all the listening apps that are available. Please, what's it called
you can't really say it's a sixth because it's not functioning as a sixth. It's a third. That's what it really is. Many people will end up confused i have a feeling.
@@baytunesguitars that’s a tough one. I totally agree that you’re going up with thirds for each diad, but the reality is 90% of musicians are going to call these sixths since that’s the interval of notes.
He’s right. Do a Google image search for “6th intervals on guitar” and you will see these shapes all over your screen. It may be functioning as a third but calling it that is probably more likely to cause confusion because it is inverted and guitarists tend to think from the perspective of the lower note.
he is adding a sixth above the note acting as the one as he goes through each note of the scale so the interval is a sixth. Invert the interval and a sixth above becomes a third below but he isnt doing that

Subscribed! Thanks Jesse, just what I've been looking for. Awesome man!
Great lesson
The thirds create a stronger sound and I mix it with the sixths for variation.
I’ve been practicing this for only a week and I’m already getting more gigs
This technique is incredible even my gigs are getting gigs
Awesome lesson! Thanks a lot!
awesome lesson !!
Hi jesse that is one beautiful sounding guitar what make is it please
Hi! It's a custom guitar I was lucky enough to have built for me. Check out my guitar collection video if you want some more info on it!
You could do it on the 6th and 4th string as well
As someone who learned CAGED system first this technique one really bolster everything for me!.
Sixths only really made sense to me once I learned CAGED.
In the E shape, the sixth consists of the root note on the high E string and the third on the G string.
So even when I play sixths, I still often think CAGED underneath.
Great lesson. One more great building in Harmony Improv. Very enlightening. Thank you!
Thanks! More to come
Great lesson man, thank you. Real easy to understand & I love the format & intro too, just sub’d - hope you’re well!
Awesome, thank you!
Playing the root and the third
Five minutes for us, but I’m sure this took you a fair bit longer to produce. Great video! Thank you :)
What guitar is that?
Hey Kevin! It's a custom guitar I was lucky enough to have built for me. Check out my guitar collection video if you want some more info on it!
Go a major 3rd up, or a minor sixth down, and you arrive at the same note.
You should explain why the pattern is how it is.
Ish
Scale degrees I think he playing the 3 and 6th notes of scale or som like that

A huge number of people under 30 have never heard of Van Morrison or heard the song Brown Eyed Girl. Sad.
I am 60 and if I never heard it again I wouldn’t miss it at all. Just way too overplayed.

1 is pretty popular for wedding bands, but I didn’t know the song until I joined a wedding band
So im wondering how he went from the the bar'd chord on the 7th fret and how he turns it into the major third

Hahaha. It's a custom guitar I was lucky enough to have built for me. Check out my guitar collection video if you want some more info on it!
Isn' t your first example, the brown eyed girl intro, not double stop thirds instead of sixths?
Yes, the intro lick in 'BEG' is a mixture of major and minor 3rds - a technique used at least as much as - and probably more widely than - 6ths.
This had me thinking too, because I play the intro in regular thirds and not inverted ones.
But the rest of the song is pretty much all based on sixths.
Cool vid Jesse...it's surprising how many ace songs use 6ths. By the way, what's the guitar you're playing there?

I’m confused how the fret space amount changes if you’re using all sixth intervals. You’re not changing strings as you slide up right?

Intro to Brown Eyed Girl is 3rds not 6's. The notes are inverted.
@@corybarnes2341 correct, but sixths are inverted thirds, and on guitar the more common name for these intervals are sixths
@@corybarnes2341 and either way, no matter what you want to call it, the point of the lesson is to encourage beginners to get the shapes under their fingers!
@@jesseglickmusic Yes but the intro is not "inverted" thirds. It's just thirds. It's played with the G on the bottom and the B on top.
And where do you get the "more commonly called 6th" nonsense. 3rds are 3rds and 6ths are 6ths. Same as they are on a piano or a bloody marimba.
@@jesseglickmusicThis video is helpful, however Cory Barnes is correct about “Brown Eyed Girl.” It’s OK, you’re young and perhaps had a teacher refer to these as sixths. Definitely not commonly referred to as sixths, because they’re not sixths.
