It takes 10 minutes to learn the "CAGED Pathway", whatever the fook that means. LOL! It's 5 shapes and 5 corresponding scale shapes. That's it. For free. The end.
@@rsitarsi4804 The “root” is the “home” note of a scale or of a chord. If you were to sing “do-ré-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do”, that’s 1245671 or CDEFGABC; so Do, 1, or C is the root (the home), So C is the root of any C scale, just as Ab is the root of any Ab chord or scale (Ab means A flat).
@@WesFanMan Yeah and if you play lefty with the strings upside down/righty left handed even worse. I have known at least 2 guitar players who play like Albert King, thin strings on top. Their Chord shapes were always tough to follow. One of the Guys had a left handed guitar strung this way, he let me play it, I just laughed HEY LOOK I am Jimi hendrix upside down lefty guitar, made me realize how tough it is playing with KNOBS under your Picking Arm. Some players can get used to this Weird stuff. I got all I can do to keep it Simple Stupid. LOL.
I've always wanted to learn guitar but never really knew where to start so I'm going to look at CAGED and just now I picked up a guitar and just started shredding this kick ass solo out of nowhere.
This video only scratches the surface. CAGED goes much more in depth if taught properly. Notice she only played major chord shapes….once you learn the shapes, you learn the inter in the chords so you can modify them. You learn the root, 3rd, and fifth. Then you can alter the chord. Major, minor, diminished, augmented, 7th chords. Its important to learn the intervals in the chord shapes, scale shapes, and arpeggios. This system, when used in depth and in conjunction with music theory, is the way to learn guitar. There’s an important part missing from these teachings and that is the lead patterns to move through the shapes. Theres two distinctive lead patterns that often get overlooked when people teach CAGED
ive been playing on and off for 20years and this is the first time this has been explained in such a great way that im actually learning something new again.... thanks so much!
THIS?! THIS IS THE CAGED SYSTEM THAT KEEPS POPPING UP ON MY RUclips ALL THESE YEARS?! 😱 Been doing this forever. Didn't know it was the GAGED system. Good to know. Thanks!
i bet you have heard " one-and-to-the-three-and-then-a-one-and-to-the-three" at least if you are into bepop you have. Anyways, the funniest way to learn the notes is to used scales/modes and play the scale you are in on every place you can on the neck, easy peace, my fav being A and Dm, they are as married as it gets :;P
i've watched a dozen videos on CAGED. this is by far, the best. easily. on the internet. wow. thank you for these camera angles and the explanation, and the graphics. it's all put together so well.
Good Lord. I’ve taken online lessons (Tim Pierce/Paul Davids) and while I still love them, I got more out of the first 3 1/2 mins of this on understanding CAGED than my previous 35 years of playing 😭
I have to agree with everyone else, I been learning just over a year, and know the CAGED system is important, but have not seen anyone else actually explain so clearly how it works and how it can be used - Thanks very much
The CAGED system is not important at all. It can help you with understanding the fretboard, but so can the pentatonic scale and its five shapes, or any approach to learning. It's somewhat overstated, here and elsewhere;
@@knotwilg3596 Just learning octave shapes as well, pretty much helps you find any note just as fast as the CAGED. CAGED is helpful but it's not some master key to the fretboard that people make it out to be.
I’ve heard “CAGED” a million times, and understood what it meant - but I didn’t realize why the letters were in that order, and that they all connect! That opening diagram makes so much sense! I had memorized a few of the boxes for soloing in only a few keys, but this is very helpful.
They are in this order because they create a mnemonic device. You could arrange them in a different order and still connect them. That's because they obviously share the same roots, thirds and fifths.
@@knotwilg3596 this confused me. So, if using this same idea, but instead of doing it in the order of C-A-G-E-D, I do it in the order of C-E-A-G-D, each chord will be C chord still?
@@OscarASevilla not sure i understand thé question. These five chords are open chords which you can bar to retrieve any chord in five different voicings. For example, if you bar thé first fret and superimpose thé E shape, you get F. If you bar thé 2nd fret and superimpose thé A shape, you get B. Barring C, G or D is a little harder because you need to fret higher up. But that's all there is to it.
This course alone changed my guitar playing and elevated to a point where I can confidently say "I can play guitar" and not just strum a few chords. Thank you, Molly. From the bottom of my heart.
Pickup music is the greatest program for learning guitar by far. All the lessons are really helpful and well structured. Trust me if you’re a beginner is a no brainer.
I have hated explanations of the CAGED system for ages. I turn this video on and skip to 4 mins, and there is this girl explaining how the shapes all connect in order :D with a good camera angle too. Now I get it! Thanks!
Best part of this is all the time/space Molly leaves between shapes that you have to count! One of the best things to learn early is that space is as or more important than what you play and she explains the CAGED system so well while teaching that too! 🙂
not just that, but since im trying to learn this system, im going to be slow at everything at first, and im obviously learning because I dont know much. A lot of other videos explain and show things so fast, like if im supposed to be an expert on it after the most minimal of explanation given
Oh my god this whole time... I thought I knew what the caged system was vaguely but I was completely wrong. Now I finally understand and I've been doing it this whole time without knowing. This will help me so much now improving since there's a proper foundation to go from. Thank you!
I’ve been trying to figure out the nuts and bolts of CAGED for ages and this is the first video that did it. When she said it’s about visualizing the G chord and that she’d never play it in real life, I realized I’d been thinking about it all wrong. As soon as I saw the A shape slide into the G in the following diagram, it clicked. Those visualizations are amazingly helpful. Thank you!
I've watched plenty of videos explaining CAGED system but I must say this is like the easiest one! It really helped me a lot visualizing all these notes, I really appreciate it!
finallyyyy, after all these years of trying to just basically understand this to get my foot in the door, this video appears like a gift from the heavens. Explanation and visualization provided.
This is essential knowledge for players of any level. The structural method explanation allows the logic to present itself without effort once the technique is implemented. Well done
OMG, IVE GOT IT. Played woodwinds since I was a kid. No chords to deal with but I understand theory. You just opened up the KB for me. After many false alarms this is the lesson that rang the bell ! Cord shapes and Root notes. It all makes sense now. Bonus, I learned a lot about proper fingering. Thank you Dr.
The explanation is very clear. When the guitarist has understood this mechanism well, he can begin to develop the ability to improvise in any style. You are a good teacher 🎸
I gave up learning from YT after watching over 100s of videos and getting hella confused and fustrated. This video was all I needed from start. Thank you so much. I'll be picking up my guitar and waiting for more of this stuff.
Don’t know why, I’m teaching guitar myself, but I never realised what 'CAGED' just stands for. Figured this system out myself over time but your explanation is so to the point, it took the first few seconds and I understood everything perfectly. Thanks big time!
I already pay for several guitar courses, but, I love how well this is done and how clear she is in explaining. I think I might need to sign up for awhile.
Our course with Molly has been a gamechanger for a lot of guitarists! Also, we have a 60-day moneyback guarantee if you're not satisfied with the lessons :)
Insanely good and concise video! Never had caged explained so simply and so practically and also so quickly. The visuals are on point! Thank you so so so much!
Visualization is so important for many people. I think I learned to play guitar using patterns first then applied names ( C chord, E chord etc….). I like your use of visualization.
Such a great idea to focus on the root notes up and down the neck. That allows people to visualize an anchor where they can always come back to. Excellent video. Just subscribed.
Dr. Molly that was an excellent teaching about the CAGED system I invented. Please, let me explain. Before all the good guitar teaching was available on the internet I was struggling to figure out (on my own, no teacher or videos or books) how to play more than just the basic open chords I new. I knew about being able to use the E form to make other chords as I moved it along the neck. So it made me wonder if other chords were also 'moveable.' So, on my own, I discovered that the C, A, G and D chords were also moveable. I think the order in which I discovered them was E, A, D, C and G. I tried to think of a word those letters would spell so it would help me remember them and so I invented C-A-G-E-D. Now here is the funny part. I did not know this system already existed! So as far as I knew I was the only person in the world who knew it! It was like I had discovered the Grand Canyon thinking I was the only person who had ever seen it. I thought to myself - I have got to share this with the world! Of couse, later on I learned that it was nothing new. I was disappointed but in a way I did invent it - at least for myself! You might say I was a co-inventor of the CAGED system and the others did so unknown to me and before my time.
The first part of this video is a great explanation. I've seen a lot of CAGED videos because transitioning keys mid-improv has always been my single weakest thing as a guitarist. I'm getting better, but it's about 20 years too late lol
The Doctor is an exceptional educator: clear, thorough, succinct, and encouraging. Great. Plus, that MM is wicked. Just got a Cutlass though I won’t be playing it as well as does Dr. Molly. Still, makes me feel a bit less guilty with the purchase.
I've been playing for almost 4 years now, and until today never fully understood the CAGED concept. Maybe I'm slow, but Dr. Miller helped me understand it in less than 5 minutes. All the other explanations I had seen / heard were so convoluted, when it's such a simple straightforward concept. Thank you!!
My nine-year-old daughter can somehow learn any instrument or any music concept with little effort. The only thing needed is interest. She’s been taking vocal lessons since she’s four and performing live as well. Somehow, she has no interest in her dad‘s main instrument, guitar. Having a strong female role model for young girls, like yourself, is so refreshing and inspiring that I set an Alexa reminder for “guitar lessons with dad” tomorrow with a reward of 30 minutes of Roblox or RUclips. I’m going to print out a couple of chord shapes and…guitars in hand…watch your video. I’ll give her the remote, let her pause and ask questions, and see where it goes. Thank you for inspiring me. I wish there were beginner videos from someone like yourself pacifically aimed a young girls.
Just learn bass... you can transfer what you learn on the bass to the guitar and extend it. I started teaching my self bass September 2023, spent a lot of hours, and joined a semester on a music school to learn music theory and more about modes, and that helped me level up on guitar, even though i have parked my guitar 10 years before i recently bought 2 guitars and my level up happened some days ago, my teacher from the semester taught me some valuable music theory which was as if he gave me these keys to a lot of the boxes in my head that has been marked with question mark because i didn't understand the theory behind it until i learned it. Never read notes either, but now i can read basic notes too. The only scale/mode i knew on guitar before was blues scale and now i know dorian, ionian, locrian, pentatonic , mixolydian, bass, and 1 kinda advanced beepop scale that only works on shift and only if you time it right. :) This what you say in this video is probably a very good tool for alot of beginners, but i rather this to a beginner, in order to make it easier for your self, do the dry stuff first, print out a sheet of a neck, start with the E string, and learn where the notes are on the neck, and how B always right next to C, same goes for E always followed by F. In norway they dont have Bb, but they have H... this is so confusing so i stick to Bb and B and here is a fun fact Bsharp and C.... the same ptich, and that means its also the exact same tone, so for me, B sharp doesnt excist!
Great explanation! For anyone that is reading this, I am a professional guitar teacher and I think the CAGED system can be very effective for some people. However, in my years of teaching I found that my students benefit much more from the "five positions" system found in Barrett Tagliarino's book "Guitar Fretboard Workbook." Like anything, it is best to work through with a teacher that is already familiar with the "five positions" system.
Been playing for 40+ years, mostly self taught. I've heard of the CAGED system so I thought I'd see what it was. It's just a catchy name for 'You still gotta memorize the fretboard, Padwan'.
I'm a slow learner. I always have to put in double the effort inorder to learn anything. Because of this I lose confidence, get frustrated and many times say f**k it all. Mollies way of explaining and showing things has given me confidence. For once I'm starting to feel like I can do this.

@@KarlKarsnark how about minor, triads, and arpeggios? 🤔😁
Very cool guitar lesson to start with, I was a bit confused, though I really like the way you played slow and chilled out
You lost me four minutes in. Roots?
@@rsitarsi4804 The “root” is the “home” note of a scale or of a chord. If you were to sing “do-ré-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do”, that’s 1245671 or CDEFGABC; so Do, 1, or C is the root (the home),
So C is the root of any C scale, just as Ab is the root of any Ab chord or scale (Ab means A flat).
Finally someone who uses the correct camera angle for looking at the guitar neck
🙌
It’s the best view but that twist hurts my wrist just looking at it 😅
Not if you are left handed. 😒
so true, makes a big difference.
@@WesFanMan Yeah and if you play lefty with the strings upside down/righty left handed even worse. I have known at least 2 guitar players who play like Albert King, thin strings on top.

I've always wanted to learn guitar but never really knew where to start so I'm going to look at CAGED and just now I picked up a guitar and just started shredding this kick ass solo out of nowhere.
The first 50 seconds already helped me understand caged so much better than all the other times I've touched on it.
That's awesome! 👏
I paused at 21 seconds and took a screenshot now I finally get it. The graphic was perfect as well.

I"ve watched dozens of videos on the CAGED system. Maybe I've heard it enough that it's starting to make sense, but this is the best by far.
High praise! Thanks for watching! 🤘
Dr. Molly that was an excellent teaching about the CAGED system I invented.
Please, let me explain. Before all the good guitar teaching was available on the internet I was struggling to figure out (on my own, no teacher or videos or books) how to play more than just the basic open chords I new. I knew about being able to use the E form to make other chords as I moved it along the neck. So it made me wonder if other chords were also 'moveable.' So, on my own, I discovered that the C, A, G and D chords were also moveable.
I think the order in which I discovered them was E, A, D, C and G.
I tried to think of a word those letters would spell so it would help me remember them
and so I invented C-A-G-E-D.
Now here is the funny part. I did not know this system already existed! So as far as I knew I was the only person in the world who knew it! It was like I had discovered the Grand Canyon thinking I was the only person who had ever seen it. I thought to myself - I have got to share this with the world! Of couse, later on I learned that it was nothing new.
I was disappointed but in a way I did invent it - at least for myself!
You might say I was a co-inventor of the CAGED system and the others did so unknown to me and before my time.
Yes! CAGED is all there on the fretboard ready to discover. Sounds like you were on the right track ahead of curb! 🤘
the best, most comprehensive tutorial i've seen on the topic, amazing, congrats and thank you!! :))

Took me a second to realize but the roots are in the same places for each chord. So now It is so easy for me to remember my roots and double check.
The best instructor ever sign up guys you wont regret it
Nice explanation just like one on one session to remind the scale and chords didn’t went fast like other people on youtube explained very nicely.
We have more improvisation focused lessons on our full site! 🤘

I'm definitely considering signing up for Dr. Molly's class. My only concern is the bar chords that I'm struggling with due to my hand impairment.
This is brilliant. Really opens up the neck
The beat and branding is really cool! Also the quality of the videos
Thanks so much! 🙏
My nine-year-old daughter can somehow learn any instrument or any music concept with little effort. The only thing needed is interest. She’s been taking vocal lessons since she’s four and performing live as well. Somehow, she has no interest in her dad‘s main instrument, guitar. Having a strong female role model for young girls, like yourself, is so refreshing and inspiring that I set an Alexa reminder for “guitar lessons with dad” tomorrow with a reward of 30 minutes of Roblox or RUclips. I’m going to print out a couple of chord shapes and…guitars in hand…watch your video. I’ll give her the remote, let her pause and ask questions, and see where it goes. Thank you for inspiring me. I wish there were beginner videos from someone like yourself pacifically aimed a young girls.
Representation matters! 🤘 Best of luck with your guitar lessons tomorrow! 🎸
Thanks a lot. I see a lot of video on RUclips but with this one I undestand everything :) thank you 👍👍👍
Glad it helped! 🤘
Just learn bass... you can transfer what you learn on the bass to the guitar and extend it. I started teaching my self bass September 2023, spent a lot of hours, and joined a semester on a music school to learn music theory and more about modes, and that helped me level up on guitar, even though i have parked my guitar 10 years before i recently bought 2 guitars and my level up happened some days ago, my teacher from the semester taught me some valuable music theory which was as if he gave me these keys to a lot of the boxes in my head that has been marked with question mark because i didn't understand the theory behind it until i learned it. Never read notes either, but now i can read basic notes too.
The only scale/mode i knew on guitar before was blues scale and now i know dorian, ionian, locrian, pentatonic , mixolydian, bass, and 1 kinda advanced beepop scale that only works on shift and only if you time it right. :)
This what you say in this video is probably a very good tool for alot of beginners, but i rather this to a beginner, in order to make it easier for your self, do the dry stuff first, print out a sheet of a neck, start with the E string, and learn where the notes are on the neck, and how B always right next to C, same goes for E always followed by F. In norway they dont have Bb, but they have H... this is so confusing so i stick to Bb and B and here is a fun fact Bsharp and C.... the same ptich, and that means its also the exact same tone, so for me, B sharp doesnt excist!
Great explanation! For anyone that is reading this, I am a professional guitar teacher and I think the CAGED system can be very effective for some people. However, in my years of teaching I found that my students benefit much more from the "five positions" system found in Barrett Tagliarino's book "Guitar Fretboard Workbook." Like anything, it is best to work through with a teacher that is already familiar with the "five positions" system.
Nice try, Barrett Tagliarino
@@Weeela 🤣🤣I wish! Just some advice from an experienced teacher. With that being said, different methods work for different people.
Agreed!! Finding the right method is important and unique to each player 🤘
The way you explained this blew my mind
That's what we're here for 🤯
Been playing for 40+ years, mostly self taught. I've heard of the CAGED system so I thought I'd see what it was. It's just a catchy name for 'You still gotta memorize the fretboard, Padwan'.
Oh-yeah! The best video about CAGED I ever watched.
Nice! Thanks for watching! 🙏
Finally after all these years been self taugh, t somebody explains it properly so it can be undsrstood ❤
Awesome! Glad it helped!
I hope I get it now. This video is as clear as it can get. Thanks!
🙏 Glad it was helpful!
Molly is the ultimate ripper! I’m your biggest fan 🧝🏻
She shreds!
Brilliant presentation,thank you!
Best caged explanation ever, with excellent visuals 🤙🏼
Much appreciated!
i am going to try this with your lesson . you have made it the most clear to me so far.
Awesome! 💪
I'm a slow learner. I always have to put in double the effort inorder to learn anything. Because of this I lose confidence, get frustrated and many times say f**k it all. Mollies way of explaining and showing things has given me confidence. For once I'm starting to feel like I can do this.
🎉
Amazing. Great place to start. This will help a lot of people.
Thanks for saying so and thanks for watching!
This is a fantastic way to teach this! Perfect view!
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome information, i have been looking for a lesson like this! Very awesome stuff!
Glad it was helpful!
I finally get it, your excellent graphics made it very clear.
Great to hear! 🤘
Of all the CAGED system video courses I've watched, this is the best so far and gave me a better understand too!
Great to hear! 🤘 Thanks for check it out
I've never seen or noticed this about these chords. Great stuff
Many thanks! 🤘
I love Molly Miller, she is a gem
Agreed!
