    Been playing for about 20 years, but never really figured out the fretboard. I spent most of my years sticking to pentatonic scales, blues scales, and power chords, and never knew any of the theory behind any of them. Lately, I've been trying to take things more seriously and really make some progress, and your channel is one of the best I've found on RUclips for lessons like this. You make things super easy to understand. The part at 2:54ish was an AHA moment for me, seeing those shapes broken down into little sections made it so much easier to visualize, especially when you called the top shape the "extension shape". Thanks for these videos man!

    I've been Playing Guitar for 30 years or so now. I've been fortunate enough to have acquired "a Killer Guitar Collection" along the way on my "Life Long Guitar Journey".. I recently purchased Blue's Book, "Guitar Soloing Like a Pro" off of Amazon.. It's well laid out, easy to follow and not too bogged down with theory and unnecessary complicated blah blah.. It's really a Great Complement & Reference too his You Tube Lessons, easy to reference, I've already improved my playing by using it as a Fretboard Guide and learning tool and I "Highly Recommend" buying it.. It's the best $15 bucks youll ever spend and I believe, like me, will quickly improve your playing ability and enjoyment of the instrument we all love!!! Thank you Blue!!!! Please keep the Lessons coming!!! We all Love your Channel!!!! ; ) Boom!! : ) "Keep on Rockin'" my RUclips Friend and Fellow Guitar Enthusiast ; ) Happy New Year 2023 to All!!! ; )

    Another great video! What you said at 8:22 is really important and not stressed enough. Much guitar instruction gives the impression that pros are thinking about advanced theory while soloing at 120 bpm, but the shapes, notes, theory, systems and licks we learn are not something we think about when playing live. We learn and practice them so they become habitual rote muscle memory, like riding a bike or hitting a golf ball. We aren’t thinking much when we perform.

    As I have come to expect from you, Blue, a very useful and well explained micro lesson on moving around the fretboard, with the goal of soloing in mind. I must admit though, I have seen this 'movement' pattern before, under different names. It's a great way to cover a lot of the fretboard whilst staying in key and not getting too lost in the process. Cheers 🍻

    Great lesson! I have a quick question that I don't know if you cover in your many videos. How do you train your nails on your fretting hand so that they don't get in the way of your playing?

    • @GuitarLessonsVancouver
      @GuitarLessonsVancouver  Год назад

      Hi Barry, got to keep the nails on your left hand real short so they don't touch the fretboard when you push the string down.

      @@BarryFence Haha, I don't have fat finger pads. But I do have calluses. If you're getting a bit of pain, that will go away over time. If you're having trouble getting your fingernails short enough, I have had one student years ago who had that problem -- just because of the way his nails grow out of his hand, it was hard to cut them that short. Over time he was able to cut them shorter and shorter.

      Hi Marty, I'll think about doing a major one too. The thing is, it might look very very similar to the minor. Let me think on that, if I can expand that to a whole video.

    @mabblers 11 месяцев назад

    So in general the different pentatonic shapes are for a specific zone on the fret board but can be played in any other zone. Is there a particular reason to pick a particular shape over another? Great lesson Thanks.

    • @GuitarLessonsVancouver
      @GuitarLessonsVancouver  11 месяцев назад +1

      We want all five shapes so we can play in any key anywhere on the fretboard, low to high, and later so we can change scales over different songs without having to shift far onbthe fretboard

    It is that resolve part that I am interested in where you said that the E gives some resolve; can't it resolve on any note in the first chord. A C OR E if it is a minor chord or A C# E in major?

    • @GuitarLessonsVancouver
      @GuitarLessonsVancouver  Год назад

      Not sure which part in the video that is, but an E note resolves on an Am and an A major for that matter. It is the fifth of the chord. A fifth gives a lot of resolve. Not as much as the root A would, but still considered resolve.

    Hey man, your videos are very helpful, but I would suggest changing the titles a little bit. I’d be more willing to click at this having something like how to properly move up the fretboard with improvisation. Your videos are lessons, and I think the title of the reflects that would make me want to click more. Your title is catchy but doesn’t make me want to click cuz I don’t know the value. Not being a critic I just like you’re content and want to see you grow.
