    Like a big teddy bear. I love how excited you are it’s contagious. I’ve been watching your videos and studying music theory for 3 years now and I’m so proud to say I get it! I get what your showing me. I understand it’s value! I can’t believe I’m actually here. Now to just start practicing bending and hammering on and sliding to all these suckers. Thank you. To anyone else watching this that’s struggling stick with this guy, he will get you there if you really want it!

    I did a lot of self studing when I was younger, and I remember lots of this, but you are connecting so much of it for me. I don't know how many light bulbs turned on but they just keep turning on. Funny I was drinking coffee and snickerd when you said grab your coffee and the next thing I know my mind blew up. Thanks so much. I will be rewatching over and over.

When I learn something, there is a physical manifestation of that learning in my body. Today, I have had a quickening of pulse and heart rate. I have learned more (I hope) from this lesson than I have in the last many months. Thank you again Stitch.

    Recent subscriber and intermediate player here, working my way through your content. What makes you probably the most accessible guitar teacher on RUclips is clearly demonstrated in this masterclass: (1) your gift for clear explanation at a layperson's level, (2) not sidestepping the critical issue of understanding the underlying principles of music theory, and (3) focusing on playing correct notes rather than flashy licks. Perhaps most compelling is your authentic desire to help others master the guitar, as you clearly have. The world needs more folks like you. Thank you so much for all these things, you have earned a follower.

    I always learn from The Stitch Method, but this one stands out as a shimmering rare jewel. Before I saw this video, I discovered triads organically by disassembling the CAGED barres and asking myself: "wonder what this does if I peel these fingers off?", etc. Very primal, but still, it was firing off new thoughts for sure. It understates the value of the CAGED system (at least for me) to say there is an amazing amount of information hiding in plain sight within CAGED. And Ian takes this fundamental notion and launches into a next-level system of using CAGED to locate the major triad (the anchor for it all!) and by extension, locating all intervals and chord shapes while keeping the fretting hand economical. I have previously appreciated the value of the CAGED system, but now realize I was merely on the front porch looking in the window. Ian opened the door and invited me in for a tour of the whole CAGED house. This is not to say this video is purely a CAGED lesson -- it is not. But it does indeed leverage CAGED in a way that has never been presented to me. If CAGED does not make sense to you, please see Ian's various -- and very generous -- CAGED videos, then come back. This lesson, pared with his CAGED lessons will change your guitar life. I would also encourage everyone to buy the charts in this video -- they are well worth it. Thank you Ian for always challenging me and lighting up new neurological pathways. You always deepen my love for this fantastic instrument. Mind blown. Finger tips hurting. Heart space for humanity just a wee bit bigger.

  • @kerrfoot
    @kerrfoot Год назад

    About 25 years ago when I started learning guitar, the norm was to teach scales, usually pentatonic, the 5 patterns everybody knows about. After that you soon realize that while you know patterns, you don't really know how to create a melody or follow the chord of the moment. I came across a book called Plane Talk way back when, and Triads were the backbone, Primarily the D shape, A shape, and E shape, all 3 in the order of 5-1-3. With that knowledge, and knowing the diatonic scale, you easily nowhere all the other notes are. Then learning the other Triad inversions really blew the fretboard wide open, and while I still do think about scales at times, I'm not bound by them. And you can play modes quite easily without having to memorize a bunch of new patterns. Thanks for the great video!

    Though i already know and practice this; it still solidifies it to watch you break it down. Absorbing information in different ways is helpful. We should know all musical information sonically, verbally, visually on the instrument and on chord charts, literally in chord names, interval names, Nashville numbers, tabs, CAGED forms, inversions, modal flavors and music notation.
    i probably forgot something but the point is there are many ways to describe or perceive any one piece of information.
    this video is very helpful. I see no one else explaining this.
    Building triads with intervals is the key to unlocking everything else.
    next I'd like a lesson onleading tones between triads (voice Leading)

    I was heading down that triads road on my own because it felt like a good way to learn to navigate the fretboard, but it wasn't based on anything else than a hunch on the way I tend to learn best.
    The CAGED system always seemed fine to me but also always felt more like remembering than understanding the fretboard if that makes sense. A lot of time and energy to commit all of this to memory instead of just taking that same time to truly figure it out.
    This video just confirmed I was on the right path and unlocked so many things at once! Legitimately progressed months if not years in one hour! My looper pedal is about to experience some serious wear and tear haha

    “…this is the most boring stuff in the world…” nah man, this fascinating. I’ve only been playing for about a year and I’ve learned some scales, a bunch of chords, I’m well on my way to internalizing the notes on the fret board, but the thing that I’ve struggled with is how to choose notes to match a solo to a chord progression. I think my answer is in here, I just need to play with it.

    • @FlaschDJ

      There are guitarists who can strum every song in a Neil Young book but would sweat and faint if you ask them where C# is on the fretboard. Yet, that’s a guitarists’ prerogative but you’ll be lost if you move to jazz. That’s why this is such a superb approach.

    This is my intro to Mr Stitch. I'll be spending time trying this out. I picked up everything except the chord voicing. I can find the notes that need to be there but when two are on the same string, having to find another octave to play one of the notes is too time consuming to do in real time (at my current knowledge level). So that seems to be what I need to practice the most, first possibly.
    Great lesson though. Thank you for making the video
