    Are you actually hearing everything you’re playing when you play the guitar? The truth is that many of us aren’t!
    We have to face the hard truth that, unless we do something about it, guitarists have bad ears.
    Playing a fretted instrument means that we don’t have to listen deeply for controlling intonation, so sometimes we forget to listen at all!
    In this video I talk about what it means to have "good ears”, how anyone can learn it because it’s nothing special, and how to start hearing individual notes within chords.

    Great video! When I started ear training away from my guitar, it was tremendously helpful. Also, I take a simple melody and sing it all week long or longer. I have collected about a hundred melodies. Then each day I read the name of the melody I have written down and try to remember how to play it. I Write it down and go check on my guitar. Also, using the same major scale pattern every time is super important. I always use fingerings 24,124,134 . I also listen to the radio and when I hear a sung phrase, I turn the radio down sing it over and over until I think I have figured it out. I carry a guitar in my truck and when I get to a safe spot, check if I’m right or not. Anyway, thanks again! And one more thing, I have known classical guitarists and shredders of a very high level but if you asked them to play something like happy birthday or Rudolph the red nose reindeer, they are going to usually have major problems. That was a huge hole in my musicality so I’ve been working on it. I could play Bach but not happy birthday. LOL

    I’ve been working in air training for a few months. My exercises have been related to a more melodic nature. This has given me a whole new way of looking at different possibilities for your training. Thank You!

    Great lesson. Most ear training seems to concentrate in melodic ear training and intervals. Ive been searching for this kind of lesson for ages! Thanks

    I just learned to tune by listening to the two overtones of the strings. Try picking out the overtones. Can you hear the fourth or fifth and how they beat? It’s amazing. And moreover a chord now has a 18 or 24 notes in it. And two note chords have 6 notes in it. Wow! So amazing!

    What does it help with if you can separate the sounds? I can hear types of chords and know whether it’s diminished or something but I haven’t tried to separate the sounds too much

    How do I find the note if I don't know what I'm looking for? The only reason I was able to sing the note you were looking for is because i know what the 3rd in a C-major and A-major chord is.
    If you told me to find the E on the 4th string while playing a C/G would be much harder.
    Second example was easier, I know how a chord should sound like. Especially dominant 7 that are very bluesy to me.

    Man this is super super hard.
    I can't even sing the correct note let alone singing the distance.

    Not so easy when chord inversions are introduced, especially with extended and suspended chords

    Unfortunately, not every string player of fretless instruments has good ears either; I lived with a cello player whose ears were so much worse than mine I wanted to shout "you're flat, can't you hear it!" Obviously players of a certain level aren't like that, but she was in a rock band, and thank goodness I was never forced to go hear them; it was torture enough just hearing her practice in her room.

    better to learn the sound of single notes first.

    Tabs are painting by numbers and as much as they’ve helped me play songs, they are really bad…

      Good point kind of mixed bag, I try to figure it out first by then look at the tab, but then the tab could be wrong,😑
