A little about me:
Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
He plays and teaches guitar on his RUclips channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

When you're learning to play, you have some AH-HAH moments that move your playing forward. This is one of them. Thanks for sharing this knowledge.
Happy to help!
Why this doesn't have 20 million views is a mystery to me. Best guitar teacher I have seen. Thanks, Sean.
Thanks so much!
Well that's because Sean is the master of flying under the radar of subscribers
Also I'm really waiting for his Hallmark movie
For someone who can't easily configure their fingers to many chords, this gives me hope. Thank you.
😅😅😅😅
in australia we’d just call him a top bloke , which he is. He doesn’t take life too seriously , and share time saving material. Your’e a top bloke Sean , love your sense of humour.🇦🇺thanks great info!
Dope!! Why is this not one of the first lessons in any guitar course?!
Excellent video, thanks a lot Sean!
No doubt some inspiration . I will impliment it in to still trying to get my Teen kids and their friends to play songs and instuments ! Free lessons :)
I struggle trying to play bar chords rarely getting them to sound right. I believe this is going to be my work around for that. Thanks for the very helpful video. I'm really glad to have gotten this info.
this blew my mind. Your recent videos are really helping me get through an intermediary hump. I don't understand why this isn't emphasized before barre chords?! Thank you very much.
So great to hear :)
@@seandaniel23 Eating My words. I just said yesterday that it's so much easier on piano-I'll never get it on guitar. Ooops, Now I'm catching on a little bit. Thank U Sean.
are you joking ? this is just stoned nonsense
Sean, my guitar instructor and I hit jazz since that's what I wanted to do - because I love jazz so much - and this was exactly what he's been trying to get into my head - but you did it with a really much simpler approach. Thank you so much for this. Now when doing the chord heavy jazz arrangements my brain is now saying 'ah ha'.
I love these little videos you do like this I was in a IED in the Marine corps and lost a lot of my memory and a lot of technique with the ways I played and these little 15 min. Little Nugget videos I normally don't get much from but where you interact the whole time it's like you're making it more interactual I learn better one on one I wish you gave some type of video lesson in real time
Thank you for your service and sacrifice brother. God bless
So glad to hear the videos are helpful!
Your comment reminded me of hearing of various studies that link learning and making music to increased brain capacity. Wikipedia provided this summary: "This strong association between musician status and gray matter differences supports the notion that musicians' brains show use-dependent structural changes. Due to the distinct differences in several brain regions, it is unlikely that these differences are innate but rather due to the long-term acquisition and repetitive rehearsal of musical skills." I can't help but think that relearning and practicing your technique may well have significant other benefits for your brain injury. Best to you.
I'm not sure whether to learn comedy from you or music. You are a master at both, it's an art and why you are awesome at maintaining engagement👏👏👏
I appreciate it!
You can go a lot further in your understanding and ability by breaking down chords into intervals and learning to play those intervals everywhere. You’ll be able to create chords anywhere. You’ll also see that you can create chords that are physically unplayable, but you can omit certain notes to make that new chord work (like omitting the 5th and maybe even the root if you’re playing with others). Diminished 7th chords as parents to dominants and their home keys will really wake you up (Pat Martino’s Parental Forms ideas).
I must admit, this is a fascinating revelation. I've been playing around with it and I like it. I like it a lot!! Thanks, Sean.
Great to hear you're diggin it!
You are killing it on the RUclips, sensei. I'd be commenting more, but I am traveling around the country in a suped up Amazon delivery van for the spring while the temp are somewhat moderate. Got to say, though I've been impressed with the amoint of good content I've seen. Your work ethic is impressive. I've turned my guitar playing son on to you. He's impressed. I don't have to tell you to keep it up. You’re in the pocket. Best wishes.
Have fun on the travels!
@@seandaniel23lo
Love the way you made this music theory accessible AND tied it into shapes that work with the chords and scale SO simply. Thanks!
A pdf of the lesson would be great
Great lesson. I never noticed how the minor and major triads sit on top of each other like that.
The bonus tip about using your pinky to play the tonic of the major chords is basically the bottom half of the G shape chord. That means you can also play the major and minor 7th notes too, using your ring or middle finger. It’s a surprising easy, yet uncommon, way to play 7th chords.
What's funny about this is this is all information I already have full access to and already know. But honestly it just never occurred to me to voice chords in this way. Immensely useful to jam with and an alternative way to visualise the fretboard for composition. Nice work Sean.
Why do some u tube teachers say that it isn't the place to learn how to play guitar,they obviously haven't seen your videos man ,you are truly ESSENTIAL 👍 I'm in Zimbabwe and loving you
Thanks so much for the kind words! Cheers from the US!
when i practice my guitar playing (by ear/self taught), i find these shapes and fingerboard positions by ear, and as i progress,... i have been discovering by accident that they connect some how!...i can hear it but i don't know (theoretically) what i'm doin/playing!?🤔🤔......watching you is really helpful!! and listening to your theoretical explanations of what it is these shapes are chord wise and scale wise, and that their relationship to each other is HUGE!!!🙏🙏🙏
Your Austin lessons have been incredible. A change of scenery and getting away from the usual distractions does amazing things for doing creative work.
That must be it :)
Got home from work today,cracked a brew ….u-tubed it….
Mind Blown!!! Great lesson
Great gear, Great communicator of guitar concepts. Thank you !
Incredible. Just today I thought that I know my way around the fretboard "pretty well" (compared to the level I consider myself at) that I can start flexing on my friends... And here comes Sean showing something so simple and elegant but something that never even occurred to me... Also I never realized that the major scale is actually just 3 major chords + their relative minors + 1 diminished. Mind totally blown.
Happy to help out!
Also their pentatonics are diatonic to the main major/relative minor key. Basically every key contains 3 major/minor pentatonics.
great video sean I've been playing for 25 years but learned by ear no theory very fun but very limiting I've been trying learning theory lately very frustrating , not only is your video helping me with shapes, but just explaining relative minors as it relates to major chords, and the notes in common , and what makes them different helps me a lot, because of my life schedule, your method of teaching doesn't require me to spend the time i had when i was 20years old to help me thank you
Wow man! Thank you for ever, for the simplicity of your explanation here.
Just love him he is unique, himself. Thank you for being you and for helping beginners.
Happy to help!
Sean you are an exceptional guitar instructor. There are a million of them out there, but very few are able to make the theory and technique simple to understand. Thank you much appreciated... Guitar Dan
Wow! This is one of those Light Bulb moments! Thank you so much for sharing this tid bit of information! It's really cool!
I thought your triads video from a couple years ago would forever be THE ground breaking video for me...You've followed it up well with this one. Mind blown again. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thanks Sean, this lesson is gold! I've been getting mild pain in my fretting hand (all of a sudden after 23 years of playing), so have been looking for new ways to play chords (ways that enable my fretting hand and wrist to remain in a straight line instead of forming something close to a 90 degree angle/ "L" shape). These 1 finger major and minor chords fit the bill! Also love using the 1 finger inverted 5ths in my playing. Thanks for another great lesson again!
Big Thanks Seán! This got me out of the four fret funk into the funky full fretboard👍
I actually knew this lesson! My practice IS paying off! Usually it is like you are speaking a foreign language. Thanks for all of the knowledge, Sean!
Always happy to help Marc!
A true a-ha moment. If your key is C, start on the C on the low E string, then same fret on the A string, then two frets higher; repeat the same 7-shaped pattern from the A on the low E string; and you have the names of the six main chords (first group majors, second minors). Find all of them stacked nicely in the shapes you have just shown. Can't thank you enough. I actually purchased your fretboard mastery course a while ago but didn't really finish it... my bad, my attention deficit. But no matter, this insight is well worth that money 🙂
Thanks for the support Jay!
Sean you we're probably the first person to actually show me workable methods of using the whole neck, mind you I'm still trying to utilise that info 😜
You're one of the best teachers on RUclips Sean. Thanks again.
I’m blown away ! This lesson teamed up with Noisy Clan’s Circle of Fifths Decoder have cleared the road on my guitar journey! Thank you Sean !
Love this video. Guitar players just kind of starting need to see this. Great stuff Sean
Wow thank you! Playing for four years, with tons of research and I did not know this. Much more suitable for my tiny hands too.
Brilliant teacher
I don't know if you appreciate how much the weeks of shredding practice improved the musicality of your playing, but I can hear/see it. Your inner Puerto Rican emerges!
haha, thanks so much. yeah it definitely helped!
This works great playing chords on a Bass VI (one octave below standard guitar), and helped me visualize the fret board better while I'm trying to transition from 4 string bass and learn more strings. Thanks!
Always a great complement to bass!
Thank you Sean! My good friend / instructor has been showing me something very similar and your video makes this so clear. As a beginner it's hard to know what information I need and what will help me most, your videos and knowledge really help. Thanks again.
Happy to help!
even though I already seem to know a lot of things you are telling I just can't stop listening. Like your swag and style of explaining, keep on going..
Absolutely Brilliant ! This alone demystifies a whole lot of graft! 👍 thanks so much!
Haha the coconut aminos tip really hit home for me--discovered that myself a couple of weeks ago. Keep the hot tips coming!
When you play a Minor 7th in place of major chord, It's transitional and the the Minor 7th is called the BLUES Substitution chord... i.e. from A to F#m7...it doesn't work for everything but it works for almost all blues 1-4-5 patterns
This is really cool Bro! You are a lot of fun to learn from.
Thanks for sharing this powerful way of looking at the fretboard.
I appreciate it!
All I can say is, you're awesome. I'm 66 and starting to play guitar again. This gives me a leg...UP!
Glad the vids are helpful!
Yet another example in the very long list of examples of why Sean is THE BEST!
Thanks so much!
Best practical theory lesson EVER! Thank you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
happy to help!
Keeper lesson! Thank you
happy to help!
these videos are very helpful! I made myself memorize the notes that make up natural triads which was only A-G which then made it easy to figure out all the others by flatting the 3rd to make them minor or adding a half step to those notes to get the notes of the non natural chords.
Happy it was helpful!
Can't wait to try this out!
To figure out The relative minor to any key, Play an A Maj Bar (5th fret) and always count 3 frets down which is F#(2nd fret) but just play it in the form of a minor Bar. (As a reference)
I had to close one eye plug one ear and pinch my nose all while biting my tongue just to keep my head from exploding. Simply because of all of the useful information i just recieved. This was a killer video with nothing but knowledge rolled into it and this is the stuff i love. Great content.
Genius - awesome eye opening lesson 👍
Awesome tips dude. Definitely going to show my students. Teach them 9 new chords in one lesson. Cant do that with cowboy chords. I teach disabled veterans on a volunteer basis. They will love this. Thanks
Sean:: you’ve opened the door to my guitar playing. I am now running down the yellow brick road. Or, should I say the maple guitar neck! Thank you so much. Like in the movie, The Wizard of Oz, my playing went from black & white to color!
Awesome to hear it!
Brilliant! Thanks again my man (or woman), for such a great guitar (or stringed instrument) lesson!
Thanks for watching Lee!
U could have any one playing songs in a few minutes I love the way you think thanks for everything you share
thanks, Sean... Awesome lesson! You have a way of teaching by giving us a different approach to challenges.
Sean! Really glad I found your channel. It is a nice change of pace from what I had been learning and reinforce concepts that my guitar teacher also taught, but in a different way. Really helpful. Thanks for the content.
Thanks for saying so Jared!
Sean,, you've been positively on fire with your lessons since moving to Austin! Thanks for continuing to answer my old question about the major chord on the four high notes with the pinky stretch.
right there @ 2;30 sounds like light my fire, i'm going to use this lesson to work on that song, thanks sean.
Mind blown. Life will never be the same. Thank you.
I struggle as I have major arteritis in my hands and this helps a lot for me and its very painful now to play chords! Thanks a lot
Cool....... and shows the relative major and minor connection. Wrote the comment and then you explained it excellent
Thanks for watching!
Love how the videos you've done simplifying things. Loved the more recent one too.
Thank you.
thank you, pure gold
It's good for use in an ensemble with the Bass holding down the root .
probably the most eye opening video you ever did,, at least for me,, the light bulb moment thanks a ton,, gave me motivation to practice more
another great lesson, learning a ton of stuff!!! Now to apply, thanks my man.
Sean, I got a man crush on you, dude. Best cheap tricks in all of guitar.
;)
Another brilliantly condensed nugget. Thanks!
Woooooooow. Completely eye opening
Sent my guitar & uke playing to a whole new level, thanks so much!
Little nuggets of gold.
That is a Sweet guitar with a Sweet sound!
Very cool. I never made the connection with the major and relative minor on the same fret.
now ya know!
Thank you for this💯
Happy to help!
This was helpful. Thank you. All the best.
Getting it done with one finger in Austin! Cheers Sean!!
You know it!
Interesting to watch your right hand listing to the different tambors you create, so much variation, of course that's all moot with distortion, but clean on that hollow D'Angelico pretty cool!🤔
Listening not listing
Excellent simplification Sean. Thanks
Another eye opening lesson. Thanks so much!
I appreciate you watching!
Howdy, this is excellent. A simple and powerful tool to help understand the instrument and some theoryish. Thank you, most timely for me.
Happy to help!
This is fun and insightful...great vid! Thanks!
Are you telling me that after I have been struggling over barre chords for FIVE YEARS that there is another way?!! I am SO MAD!!!!
Beautiful guitar my friend- it reminds me of one of mine. Höfner Very Thin President but mines a single cutaway. It’s one of two made in the prototype color “ peppermint green” - one went to Wisconsin and the other to California. I got the Milwaukee one and it’s sweet sounding. I love hollow body electric guitars . Great video as always brother.
Best of Tube.
Thanks so much!
Great video Sean, it makes such good sense, you are the only tutor I have ever seen teach this, brilliant! Thanks.
Thanks so much for saying so!
Sean, thank you so much! You just made my playing so much easier! I’m jealous too that you get to hang with Dovydas!
Thank you Sean always makes guitar lessons understandable and clear best guitar teacher ever😍
You are a legend !
awesome concept.. THANKS !!!
Also if you play all four notes at once your playing Major 6 or minor 7 depending how you see it.
Yup! That's the next step!
Wow! Like...my mind is blown! I have been doing something similar to this for a while, but not as in depth. Thanks for the explanation: it will open a few more doors.
Awesome lesson
WHOA‼️And WOW‼️This is one of the BEST, most informative videos I’ve seen…THANK YOU SO MUCH 🎶🎵🎶‼️❣️‼️
I’ve been using triads a lot more the last year or so, meaning I knew of these chords I did not put together they were the relative ones 🤯🤯🤯
