Profoundly grateful for this. All at our fingertips without much movement, just manipulation of notes. You demonstrated this excellently. The Caged system is indeed the HOLY GRAIL of soloing as you demonstrated. Warm regards from Sunny South Africa
I'm 66 and have played since I was 15, in bands, etc. In the last several years, though, I have lost my passion/interest in guitar for some reason and can't seem to find it again. Your video sparked my interest and I appreciate it, thank you!
Time to buy a new guitar' play it like a new toy' if you start loosing interest....buy another one and sell the previous one... repeat that process every time you you begin to lose interest.
@@georgeaye7535 yeah, try something in a totally different genre, even. Maybe a book of classical guitar music with tab, or blues, or jazz, or focus more on improvisation or whatever you haven't done much of.
I've been playing and learning guitar since 1974 and still finding news ways to play to improve, your information was very very helpful, the old light bulb thing turning on. Thanks
None of the 3 face to face guitar teachers i had as a teenager taught cage. Looking back I realise their is more to learn from a good 10 minute focussed video like this than I learnt in a year.
@@pazdylan1873 hey man, agree at 100%. Thank you for chiming in. And unfortunately years ago, I would’ve been that same guitar teacher. I think we all learned to get better as we go. I was taught wrong myself. I’m trying to right the wrong by sharing my knowledge.
Been playing for 8 years, hit a wall and this is defo a breakthrough. RUclips is full of useful information but this has definitely came at the right moment for me. Thank you! 🙏
Always a pleasure to meet a fellow Brother...54 and still rocking...My Strat just turned 31 its my second guitar... GodSpeed Brother to you and your Family...Aloha...........
🤙🏼 Been doing this for years, but didn’t know it had a name. 🤙🏼 Tip for folks new to this: work a chord progression using D-C-G-C, first in the open position then move on to the 5th fret position. Not saying it’s easy, but you may get your jam on a bit faster.
for over 40 yr i played cow boy chords becouse no body wanted to tell you or me any thing about triads ,, this has been a life long dreem to play this guitar, and i still struggle with every thing, triads shapes No Clue . ... then the internet exploded with people kind people teaching and showing how to learn it .. i look back with such discust at all the teachers i paid money to .. the wheels on the buss go round and round ... Realy im 70 now the dreem is gone now its a struggle ...the one thing in life i havehad such a pashion for the GUITAR
I totally relate, I’m in my early 40s playing guitar since I was 13! Took a year of lessons at 19. My teacher did send me on a good path teaching me the pentatonic scale but I didn’t learn how to use triads til using online videos we can learn much more and so much faster.
@@stevepara123 nop keep going i know its frustrating go to my channel and check out my instructor he's the best .. theres nothing like picking up a guitar my friend and improvising i do a lot of that
Started playing at 10, I'm 61 now. Put it down for decades because "life happens". Just got my first non-Squier Fender. Player II series Stratocaster and after watching this it lit a fire I haven't had since 1973. Thank you!
Great video! Not to lenghty, right to the point, well explained...Its nice to watch things like this and dont have sense of time lost, but actualy learned something new👏👍
This really is the magic that Guthrie preaches. Great example with this chord progression. It has so much to offer when we get comfortable with visualizing all the chords, triads, and then really nail the chord tones and sprinkle in some arpeggios, bends, chromatics. It's always fascinating to me to see how 5 of my favorite players would solo differently on something like this.
Guthrie has helped me so much to unlock the fretboard. He is truly a master of his craft. And yes that is the. beauty of guitar, watching different players with different approaches. Thanks for watching! BTW-II have had Guthrie Trapp for 2 "Deep Dive" guitar workshops at The Music Salon. Already planning the next one.
Wow - I have often heard about “seeing the chords within the scale” and never really quite GOT IT. This video totally helps me visualize this (now I just need to practice it 10x more than a person with some talent to be able to use it 😂). Thank you !
Guitar is like Weightlifting (the sport) - the basics have always worked and will always work. The basics have been around forever. People on social media will try their best to add fluff and bells and whistles to get clicks, but in the end, the Mighty Basics are best.
There's a ton of valuable info in this video in under 6 minutes! I've seen various videos about caged but this one makes it as clear as I've seen on how to actually apply it. 👍🏻🎸
Thank you for sharing this! Playing for years and always practicing chords and scales seperately and i find myself constantly stuck. This is a great way to see the fretboard and improve my soloing in a different and better way. Thanks again and I subscribed!
@@samdavis3167 thank you so much for taking the time to comment and thanks for subscribing. Stay tuned as I have many more videos. I’m getting ready to upload.
Awesome my playing has gone through the roof since learning caged, the shapes also quickly taught me the scales and modes, thanks for sharing new subscriber Roy from London, also you have the coolest site name music salon!!
Great video and really useful info that I can use. Can't ask for much more, so thank you. But it was disconcerting to be taught guitar techniques by James May! I kept wondering when Clarkson and Hammond would appear.
I understand what you are saying and have been working on this for years but the same thing is missing for me: where do those licks come from? You say now I'm in E, and I understand that. Both at the 9th fret and the 4th fret. But then you play something and don't explain it. I guess everyone else can just come up with stuff if they know where to play? I can play the chords all in one place starting with the "A" shape E chord or the "C" shape E chord, as you demonstrated. I can play the three inversions of triads up and down the neck on the different groups of strings also. But if I try and play a lick, it does not sound good or connect to the next chord. I have watched lots of videos, read books, and talked with great players. I hear them say "I just play over the chords". But I don't know where that comes from. My mind is blank when it comes to that stuff. I have asked this on several videos but never get an answer so maybe it is just so easy folks can't believe I am serious. Thank you for the video!
Like minor pentatonic, pos one goes under Em shape, also in front of Amaj shape, pos2 goes under Emaj shape, pos3 goes over d shape, pos 4 goes over Am shape and pos5 goes over Amaj shape
Thank you for the reply but that is not helpful. I know where to put my fingers, it is the lick I can’t come up with on my own. The order of the notes, the phrases, when to bend, how many notes, etc. How to connect to the next chord as well
Man I wish I could get this. I've been learning now for 5 years and feel so stuck. I understand what the CAGED system is and can play they different shapes, but I am lost as to how to get from there to here. Comments and suggestions please!! I really want to be able to play like this and just can't get started.
@@bethspahr9582 just stick with it and keep watching not only my videos but others. It’ll start to make sense to you, I promise. Keep on rocking my friend.
Its not so easy sometimes to see which notes are being played, but im assuming your inversion of the E major chord you use is just part of the G-shape E major chord, with the root on the 12th fret, low E string? So instead of 1-5-1 with the A shape E major chord, you get 3-5-1 with that part of the G-shape E major chord? Sorry for being pedantic 🙂

its simple, learn the 5 major scale shapes, , youll then already have the notes/shapes for all the modes in western music, use caged to superimpose over those scale patterns to target chord tones, learn pentatonics, learn all the notes on the guitar, learn cover tunes

@@radarpulse the delay is through my fender tone master pro. It’s an excellent unit. You should check it out. And to answer your question, I’m really just thinking about bending notes out of the C# minor pentatonic

So your NOT just staying in the E major scale? When chords change and you play a licks, are you using the scale associated with the chord? So when it goes from E major to C# minor, your going from E major scale to C# minor scale?
@@nyzombiesquad182 thank you for the comment and the question. I’m actually switching scales every time, even though they might share the same notes. When it goes to the C#minor I’m playing the notes of that chord in an arpeggio form. Same concept over the A. Let me know if this helps? I’d be more than happy to do another video for you
@@themusicsalonstudio yes it helps, my problem is..and I may just need to put more time in..but going from 1 scale to another over the chord changes just doesn't sound smooth, just choppy... Say i play a simple 2 chord G, C..i play G, E shape on 3rd fret..use the g major scale..then when I play the C under it using the A shape, im using C major scale..or G triad D shape up at the 7th, and C triad E shape at the 8th fret...still using both major scales...it just doesnt sound good....so frustrating feeling like I know the CAGED, triads and inversions, the scale that are associated with the shapes and yet STILL cannotsound musical...i feel like im right there just cant make it happen!!
Play only the associated pentatonic scales. E major chord, play E major pentatonic C# minor, play C# minor pentatonic B major, B major pentatonic A major, A major pentatonic

Please explain what you are doing.
@@sheephead187 I did explain it in detail, I’m available for Skype lessons
@@sheephead187 I did explain, in detail
I’m available for Skype lessons if you’d like to learn more
Yeah the thing is though, how we supposed to know those chord shapes
@@ThisisRocky2000 you have to study triad and cage system like all of us did.
If you put the work in, you’ll get the rewards
good lesson, slower please.. thanks
Was your dad Jimmy McGary (tenor sax man)?
@@paulgibby6932 yes, sir
@@themusicsalonstudio Cool. He was a great jazz man. All the best to you on your journey.
@@paulgibby6932 thank you for the kind words! And thanks for tuning in
I am bald
So your NOT just staying in the E major scale? When chords change and you play a licks, are you using the scale associated with the chord? So when it goes from E major to C# minor, your going from E major scale to C# minor scale?
@@nyzombiesquad182 thank you for the comment and the question. I’m actually switching scales every time, even though they might share the same notes. When it goes to the C#minor I’m playing the notes of that chord in an arpeggio form. Same concept over the A. Let me know if this helps? I’d be more than happy to do another video for you
@@themusicsalonstudio yes it helps, my problem is..and I may just need to put more time in..but going from 1 scale to another over the chord changes just doesn't sound smooth, just choppy...
Say i play a simple 2 chord G, C..i play G, E shape on 3rd fret..use the g major scale..then when I play the C under it using the A shape, im using C major scale..or G triad D shape up at the 7th, and C triad E shape at the 8th fret...still using both major scales...it just doesnt sound good....so frustrating feeling like I know the CAGED, triads and inversions, the scale that are associated with the shapes and yet STILL cannotsound musical...i feel like im right there just cant make it happen!!
@@nyzombiesquad182 it definitely takes a lot of hours to get this under your fingertips. I’ll do another video and see if it helps you.
Play only the associated pentatonic scales.
E major chord, play E major pentatonic
C# minor, play C# minor pentatonic
B major, B major pentatonic
A major, A major pentatonic
@@HoldrioDerNeckarBrennt yea its what im doing, just sounds like garbage for some reason
half the guitarists out there wouldn't have a clue if you asked them to play an A chord in five positions.
And the other half would be an a-hole and not help them because they’re afraid the unlearned will pass them in knowledge and skill
@@pazdylan1873 and the other half would. Not sure what your point is? Either way, thanks for watching.
Way over my head
Related to Jimmy?
@@RobRice-so5nv Yep, my father
@@themusicsalonstudio I saw him at Corey's in '85, he was great.
Does that amount behind you say “Fucks”? I’m not trying to be a smart ass, it’s legitimately looks like it says that 😂
@@MackDaddyVic FUCHS lol
Andy Fuchs designs these boutique amps and they’re pretty stellar. Worth checking out. And yes, I’ve heard all the jokes lol every night on stage.
@@themusicsalonstudio ahhhh okay cool I’ll have to check them out. Lol thanks man. Dead ass looks like a K at first glance
Say what??? 😂
CAGED is like a cult at this point. Poor guy thinks he needs to put it in the title of an otherwise excellent video just so people will view it.
@@oktayx189 just curious is what you think I should have called it? And the goal of putting videos up is to get people to watch it. I’m not sure what this comment is really all about. Either way I thank you for watching.
@@themusicsalonstudio First I like the video. Thanks for that. The "CAGED System" is a pet peeve of mine. I think it's just a fashionable thing that does not at all do what it's supposed to.
I thought I saw the light go out of your eyes when you had to call what you're doing CAGED. That's what the comment was about. :)
@@oktayx189 Roger that. I hear ya, everybody seems to be talking about it. It’s actually not how I learned, but I understand and teach better explaining it this way. Thanks for your input! Keep keep watching.
@@themusicsalonstudio Will do. Thanks
This made no sense whatsoever
@@Qvqvqvqvq these videos aren’t for everyone. If you don’t have a basic understanding of the instrument, then I would recommend staying away from these topics.
Best of luck in your guitar journey!
You talk to much old fella.
I think he is great. Very clear to me and I have learned so much just watching this video. Maybe it’s you, Good Sir?
@@davidhoward5959 that’s kind of the point of instructional videos.
all right if you are an accomplished musician, otherwise much toooooooo fast. taking at 90MPH is not very helpful either
@@hrxy1 I appreciate the input, but these are free lessons. I can’t please everyone. I try and do lessons that the average person can comprehend. You can slow things down or rewind. Thanks for watching.
