Guthrie, you are a kind friend. Thanks for the words we we spoke the other night. I want to say, my private lessons and AW subscription with you since 2019 are continuously paying off and I have fretboard “lightbulb” moments all the time. Your teachings over the years have me understanding everything you talk about. Too much to note but thank you! I encourage anyone serious about melodic, never lost fretboard knowledge to get onboard with GTs lessons opportunities. Thanks man, see you soon around town.
“Don’t overthink it. It’s all right there. Just keep playing the guitar.” 🙏
No one has done more for my playing than GT. He's so right about CAGED and chord shapes. His private lessons are a wealth of material to go over and over. He's an incredibly talented musician who is also a great teacher. In 50 years of playing and countless other lessons he is simply the best I've found. He took my playing up several levels and I continue to learn from him every time I pick up the guitar. Here's the thing you might not realize; he says it without really saying it: It's about the journey. Enjoy the journey and watch yourself grow on the instrument, truly what it's all about.
Thanks a million, Jay. Always a pleasure working with you and so glad it’s working!
awesome. can't wait to get started.... even as a 53 year old.
No doubt,,, The journey of guitar ,,seeing yourself get so much better over time,,,it's All about DEDICATION to the instrument. Play guitar, - RJ.
Guthrie, they may come in quick flashes at a time… But when I break down and analyze what you pass over, your teaching is PACKED to the brim with information and you waste zero time going from one idea to another. I could pick a random place in your videos, watch for 30 seconds, and practice for 30 minutes. I can also turn every video I’ve watched so far into a 2 week/month long masterclass!
RUclips is recommending all your older videos. I love it. 4:20
The best YT channels are with folks who actually do the thing in their non-YT life and then share it with their YT community! Thanks, buddy!
I've tried 1 lesson with this man and already I'm playing differently, thanks a million,
Dude!! That's some tasty playing. I gotta admit I used to not be a fan of country but some of you players are unreal. Very knowledgeable. And thanks for sharing
You and Uncle Larry have helped me improve exponentially.
Is there a Uncle Larry channel?
@@stratocumulusnimbostratus328 Yep: Homeskoolin. GT and Larry are buds.
These last three videos that you've done are opening up a whole new world for me on guitar. I now can't wait to get home from work to practice these shapes & get them "under the fingers" for a couple of hours each night . I believe that in a few months I will play more melodically and finally escape "pentatonic hell" :)
Coming to ya from Dothan, AL. I don't get to Nashville much but I sure have treasured that in-person lesson from a few years back. Thanks for all you do and the inspiration. Life long fan and keeping up with you on the internet machine. Hope to see you soon. My best, Lamar Miller
Just watching you noodle is a thing of beauty.
Gorgeous opening. Imma steal everything I am able to understand from that! hahah
Bro, your channel just disappeared from my feed for several months and it just came back recently. Glad to see you (the channel) back. 🤣
You are great because I hear 'songs' everytime you play.
This is Nashville guitar gold! Thank you so much for all the inspiration. #Nashville loves you #615boys
Thanks man!
I was at a plateau for years... Stuck in the pentatonic box... You've opened my eyes, my ears and I'm excited to practice again after playing for over 50 years! Thank you!!
I never can finish a Guthrie Trapp video. Because within 6 minutes I get so much inspiration and ideas, I immediately just go grab a guitar and start jamming the ideas. These are fantastic videos.
Very true
In only 15-20 seconds into this video and all I have to say already is “ Thanks Guthrie”!! Your videos as always are awesome and Much appreciated!! 😊👍
Guthrie I think I speak for everyone when I tell you We don’t just inspire You, Guthrie you inspire us more than you will ever know! Thank You so much 👍
Thanks a bunch man!
You know where to flick the switch in my head. Light bulbs shinning and wow I am learning the fretboard quicker than ever. Thanks again.
Great! Thanks man!
Thanks for the explanation of the G shape at the C position. Very helpful. I’m taking guitar lessons, but I learn from everything I hear and see. Also love your intro playing.
I really like when you make a mistake, you correct it instead of editing it out..
It sort of makes it easier to understand and to strive for. I really like your approach to music.
this fingerstyle is how I want to play 🤘🎸
Soon as I see and hear Guthrie I grab a guitar .. you make me want to play.. because I live across the pond.. it could be any time of day or night when your videos are posted... need I say more .. except .. thank you.
Thanks a bunch man!
Dude this right here is the outline for a whole course. each one of the segments that begins with "here watch this" is an entire study worthy of a video. Most of the other you tubers cover some of the same subjects more than once. You have got a course outline here on HOW TO SEE IT
Thanks man! I have a full online course at Artist Works. Check it out!
Been watching Artist Works since I got home from work. Finally turn it off and got a new GT video. Must be livin right.
This is worth gold. Thanks.
I just love G. Thanks a lot Mr. G.
Thanks Guthrie, I really enjoyed this time with you.
Guthrie Trapp. You lay it out so well. Keep the lightbulb moments coming for me please. Peace!
Thanks a bunch!
Lord that neck tone is heaven dude! What kinda pup is that guitar - the presence along with the warmth is tone comfort food!
Another gem , I always learn to ways to look at the neck , keep it coming we are like sponges !
Thankyou for sharing your gold... spreading guitar wealth.
Love it Guthrie! ArtistWorks subscriber here. Having a great time. Thank you!
Met you at guitar gathering in Nashville
Your video Sunday was great I’ve been practicing and trying to understand,
You are great instructor
It's you and Uncle Larry that inspired me to really get back into playing the guitar again but in a totally different way than I'm used to. Been playing since 13 years old,now at 50 years old I'm seeing all this as more unique and exciting...kinda crazy lol
Super cool approach to talk about one chord form at a time. Mainly I enjoy listening to you talk. Thanks.
I’m trying to understand the fretboard better and everyone of your videos helps! Thank you!!
Thanks man!
Nice job putting this into plain language and providing practical application. "No one is going to play this chord shape, but you have to see it". Very helpful. You have me viewing the guitar differently
It's really helpful for me when you call out the chords as you change and play over them. Sounds great.
Guthrie is world class and I so much appreciate his music and content. Great sentiments with absolutely beautiful music. A true virtuoso. His advise on rig rundown really stuck with me - don’t get lost in the gear, focus on the music!
Thanks a bunch man!
You are seriously one of the most entertaining guys on RUclips for guitar lessons. Very informative but kind of points out my major suckage on the guitar. I am 61 and have been playing since I was 9 and obviously need to spend more time learning the fretboard.
NEW suscriber right here, I am from Peru, I thank God I found your channel, I have seen 3 maybe 4 videos in your channel and I can tell you the improvements I justbachieved, I learned how to play by ear and all those theorical stuff you talk about I discovered without knowing the actual terminology, I considero myself a very good guitar player, with a very fine musical ear but when it comes to improvisation sometimes I hesitate, And you inspire me to become a better guitar solo player, thanks man.
Lightbulb going off for me watching your video... G for "glue" -- as in it glues together the E and A shapes. Whereas A and E each have a more standalone purpose as chord shapes, this video shows how useful the G shape is to seamlessly tie together harmony and melody. Amazing stuff. Thank you for making these!
Love the stories to. Talk about synchronicity though. Last week I was working on the E blues scale between frets 9-12. You're right. That area of neck is under utilized.
Turns out, thanks to this video, that I was unconsciously working the G shape.
So thanks ever so much Guthrie. Today's offering is a golden icing on top. Bam! It seriously rounds out my working knowledge.👍
Nice!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Such deep expression 🙏
Knowing the shapes and all the information around them and REALLY knowing the shapes is something Guthrie has made me very aware of. Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge, it is such a treat especially for us thousands of bedroom guitar players who just want to sound better and struggle out of the inevitable ruts we all fall into. Mr GT has helped me massively in rut breaking and that is a great gift to receive.
Thanks a million!
Thanks a million!
Thanks !! 🙂
I call visualising chords shapes further up the neck the “invisible capo”, just picture a capo on the 7th for example and then you know the G is now a C and work around that. Never had a lesson in my life so it’s just the way I worked it out for myself over the years
Sir ,I just discovered your channel today ,let me confess you are a great teacher
Wow, your last two videos have knocked it out of the park bro.
Thanks Guthrie - you’re really giving out here
Thanks man!
Great lesson!
I have got the same problem with my left pointer finger for several years. For example, without a warm up, I can't finger a C major chord. Thanks God it hasn't got worse yet.
The black face Princeton and that thinline sounds like tubular bells. Beautiful.
1) What you played in the intro was just gorgeous 2) Great fretboard info as always 3) Love the stories from the Gulf coast, especially the hair in the tuning peg, lol! (I don’t mean to laugh at anyone’s misfortune, but I can picture the whole scenario, and in hindsight, it’s hilarious 🤣). 4) Appreciate the advice on stretching/loosening techniques. I’m an athlete as well as musician; I foam roll and stretch my body regularly, but hadn’t thought to apply the same to my hands. Makes perfect sense. Thanks as always and keep up the great work and music 🙏👍🏼💛
Man these lessons are absolute gems! in 2021 I stumbled on a "5 minute lesson" by Jake Curran on using triads in lead playing which sent me down the path of learning all my major, minor and diminished triads on all string sets all over the neck. This somehow led me to Tom Bukovac's videos where he reinforced the importance of this knowledge and ultimately your "this is THE secret" video. I am now confident that this is the correct path and I can ignore all the guitar lesson noise and shortcuts online. I understand there are no shortcuts, you have to put in the work. Now I no longer pick up the guitar and noodle the same dumb pentatonic stuff, I'm trying to use my ear and make music. I don't quite have the "heads up display" of the fretboard in my mind that Tim Pierce talks about, but I know I'm on the right track and my playing is improving. Your teaching style is awesome, thank you so much for this incredible content!!!!!
I'm on the triad path right now. I've heard so many teachers say to learn the triads, but I put it off because it seemed so daunting. In reality, it isn't hard to learn those triads at all, 5 minutes a day over a couple months and you own those triads forever.
Glad you are enjoying bringing us these videos. You're a good guy, Guthrie. You restore OUR faith in humanity.
Tale care, friend.
Thanks a bunch man!
GT your glass is overflowing for all of us that enjoy your musical gift. Never stop, never give up, never give in. Your musical voice is beautiful and important to share. Thank you sir. Blessings to you🙏
Absolutely beautiful ,Guthrie❣️thank you for sharing!
Flora Bama! I spent 2018 to 2020 down in Mobile. Loved the music and musicians down there, but we had to get back to California. I found I could move my body out there, but my heart wouldn't budge from CA. As a music photographer, I got to know a lot of musicians from Mobile to NOLA. I miss those cats. There was a lot of great talent there. Sorry our paths didn't cross during that time, but hopefully you'll get out here before too long.
i never heard a guitar sound I enjoy more
You have said that you are not a professor but you are a professional. I agree that you are a professional, but in my opinion, you are a the consummate educator. You don’t hold back. Over the top, you try and share your knowledge of the guitar and of music! I always look forward to every new video that you put out! Thanks so much!
You’re showing us more than how to play guitar mate, your openness and positivity are as inspiring as your playing….thanks Guthrie
Thanks a bunch man!
I've been to the Florabama many times. It's a big place! Sometimes they'll have 3 bands playing at once. If music in one area doesn't suit your taste you can walk over and hear a different band. I never saw you there Guthrie...I'm positive I would remember that! Thanks so much for each video. Cheers
Been watching you for a year and my playing has improved significantly. I've been playing since 1986- and in from LA( Lower Alabama)- wish I had RUclips way back then or at least a guitar magazine mentioning the cage system. Oh well- if you get out to Wyoming hit me up
It makes sense now...Thank you
Great!
Thanks for your generosity GT! You are an amazing player.. and an even better human (from what I see on your FB page).
Thanks for the cool breakdowns dude, I'll be messin with this G shape gold later this evening.
Man, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Love all your lessons Guthrie. More road stories please! That guy telling you about his cousins and giving you that sort of non-compliment killed me.
Thanks man!
These lessons are pure gold....thx so much Guthrie!
I love watching you discover new sounds while you're teaching.
I just want to say how much I appreciate your channel, you are a good teacher. Learned really a lot from you. Discovered you via uncle Larry. Thanks man! Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thanks a bunch man!!
Cool concept to work on specific shapes one at a time. Thank you!
A treasure trove of information and motivation, once again.
Thanks a lot for this, Sir!
Thanks man!
Amazing Guthrie - thanks for your insights and generosity
CAGED. Dumb name but has changed my way of playing. Thanks for spreading the word. I’d love to see y’all this weekend at the Jazz. But 11pm is a little too late for these bones.
These latest lessons have been awesome you are going into greater detail which is really good for us slow learners really appreciated
Thanks man!
Guthrie, even your mistakes, as you put it, are music to my ear. Thanks for the lessons, the direction, and the inspiration.
Thanks man!
Plus, there's no extra charge, as he occasionally jokes.
Thanks Guthrie! This is definitely gold. I feel like you keep handing me keys that are unlocking the padlocks on my fretboard! Thank you! 😀🙏
The bit you did at the end was very cool. Can you show us that a bit slower. I loved that. Thanks Guthrie, you're making a difference in my life. God bless
I could watch thus 10 times and pick something else up to move my guitar playing forward. It's amazing that there are 100 of these out there. Thank you so much Guthrie! I've got a couple of new guitar players that are friends who I have been sending a bunch of links to
I learn a lot from these videos pretty quickly
I don't want that trigger finger either, Awesome info on G. I always liked that open G tuning, those Kief Richards licks. You did put quite a bit of Guthrie gold in this lesson. It's on repeat.
Sincerely grateful Bud!
Keep ignoring the trolls and
Please don’t stop this train of motivation you’re currently on.
Passing on your knowledge and experience is truly a gift,
And a key that so many of us need to unlock not only our potential but a way out of our frustration.
Thanks for these road maps!
Thanks a bunch man!
I love your teaching style. Friendly and authentic, like we’re just hanging out with you absorbing your style rather than being taught a lesson. Thank you!
Agreed! And what's awesome is that he's exactly same in a one on one lesson. Truly an authentic dude.
Freakin awesomeness brother ... your mastery is profound ! Thanx
Thanks man!
Thanks, Guthrie for great inspiration and keeping it real. Just a down to earth explanation along with sharing stories of your journeys with friends like Kenny Vaughn etc. Awesome, Love this stuff man! Still waiting for that magic lol
Something I realized was getting the guitar up off my leg help considerably. I play with a strap sitting now or between my knees (the correct way) to keep the weigh off my leg as I damaged a very large nerve that can knock your hip, pelvis and SI out, and that sucks!
Your the best teacher mate! ✊🏼
What a great way to start my day.
I seldom give a damn that I'm 67 years old. There's few things I wish I'd known or done. The biggest thing I miss being old is I don't have as much time as I'd like to study your videos. One thing I enjoyed doing was meeting you at Robert's Western World!
Thanks a lot for taking the time to share this material, it is some of the best on you tube ! keep it going Guthrie we appreciate your talent !
What's funny is a lot of the stuff you explain, I know already, but didn't know I knew until I heard it explained, a lot of it makes instant sense. Been playing since 18 years old and 67 now. Thanks man!
Hello from way up north, Oshawa On Canada 🇨🇦 Man I get so much pleasure watching you play. Even your "mistakes " sound amazing! You've inspired me to dig deeper and become a better player especially in the country style of players I grew up listening to never even hoping I'd be able to play like them. What I love most though is your real life approach, never being clinical but laid back, friendly and funny at times- all while revealing an incredible amount of valuable, useful information. Thank you and bless you. I wish you all the success with all your endeavors Guthrie
Will Zaver
This really demystified a lot of those beautiful Knopfler melodic lines…arpeggios in 1 4 5 connecting with the root major scale. Thx GT!
Hair caught in the E string tuner and had to cut it out. Classic stuff right there. Keep 'em coming, GT!
Thanks man!
Great insight Guthrie ...excellent ... thanks.
Guthrie sincere thanks for taking time out of your day, when you don't have to, and sharing the knowledge.
Thanks man!
