mike accidentally playing "The First Noel" killed me
The greatest part of fooling around with this is realizing this allows me to now play all the notes to the "Dueling Banjos". My dog just ran away with my truck, thanks a lot.
As a teacher and player, i love simple! Beautiful discovery!
This clicked right away considering improving is my weak point right now, this is an awesome way to get the ball rolling. Thanks! 😊💙🎸
This feels like a huge step in my improvising/soloing journey, yet such an easy concept to grasp with how you explained it. Thank you! Earned a subscriber.
always a pleasure with the uploads man, you kill it every time!
I found this out on my own but your explanation of it by comparing it to piano and singing are a great point!
So many years of just kinda arpeggiating and not really learning scales like that just for this guy to come in and tell me something so simple and improve the way I play so fast
I am in awe. Today, you helped me break a hurdle I have had for years. I just turned this off and solo'd for over backing tracks for 1/2 hour with confidence. THANK YOU! Also nice in this exact position to noodle over Em (of course).
Another fun thing to do for improvising is to duel yourself. It works best with a Les Paul because you have the dedicated tone control for the neck pickup so it'll sound like another guitar. But just play something on the bridge pickup, then switch to the neck pickup and try to copy what you heard with the bridge pickup. Granted, you should be able to copy it exactly anyway, but it's fun to pretend you didn't just play it, and try to replicate it. Not getting it perfect also adds to the feeling that you're dueling someone. But just keep switching between bridge and neck, and then change it to make the neck be the "Pro player" and now the bridge has to try and follow.
This is a great concept in understanding how to MAP the fretboard. These are the types of lessons and exercises we need.
This was a very helpful video for 1st time soloing. And amazing that you did this in 6 min instead of 20 like a lot of other videos that were more confusing. I've played rhythm guitar 10 + years and have wanted to branch out to electric/soloing and this blew my mind how simple the soloing can be. Thank you!!
This is an eyeopener, it solves the problem I've been having, moving from one shape to the next. I'm glad I subscribed to the website.
Great video, improvisation is both one of the most important and most fun things you can learn
Love this. Philosophy is the king over any individual lesson.
Dude! Picking this one up and just messing with it made me sound almost good! :D Thank you! It was very helpful! You and Bernth are my top two favorite YT guitar teachers, and videos like this are why.
I like the new camera angles on this one! That guitar is effing sweet!
I want to thank you for opening up these ideas. Truly …. It was like “unlocking”. I just tried them on my guitar and wow ….. it really works and sounds really musical and melodic. Thanks ….. I just added these ideas to my tool belt and I will think of you when I use these new shapes. Bless you for taking the time to pass these insights on to others.
Thanks for taking the time to explain these concepts clearly and helping me to better understand how to navigate around the neck of the guitar with purpose. I’m an intermediate level player and really appreciate these types of videos 🤜🏼🤛🏼
This is excellent. I learned these concepts a long time ago but it took me a lot of time to get it. When you combine this with octave visualization it really opens things up. For the rock and metal guys G major has the same notes as the venerable favorite key E minor so once you learn the G major you’ve also got the E minor but the focus is on the G note in the major and the E note in the minor
This is amazing..... I am in a place where I want to start teaching guitar probably going to do go with the whole school of rock franchise. I've been playing for about 30 years and I feel like music is always been there for me and to be able to be in a place to teach people to love music and create it is probably one of the best things I could do with my life. Thank you for sharing an inspiring me.
I haven't learned too much about playing lead, but when I started to learn the solo for "Hotel California," I liked sliding into the middle of the neck. Now I know what to do next for my own lead playing.🥰
Dude I can’t help but to notice your guitars are immaculately clean. Just like that Ebony custom that you have. Good choice for guitars as well, you inspire me to get more guitars!
Thank you! Your lesson just took me up another two levels in one minute! The fretboard is becoming less and less of a mystery🤟🤟🙏
Those shapes are a must to build from. I like the idea of starting at middle C. Great tip. 👍
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This lesson was very much a golden key to me.. it REALLY unlocked melody making along the whole length of the fretboard. It's freedom. Thank you friendo!
Great vid! Only been playing for about 3 months and only play scales, nothing up and down the neck. Wow, for the first time I am going up and down the neck. Thanks!!!
Thank you thank you thank you for mentioning backing tracks!! I'm self-taught, using RUclips for almost four years now, and I learned rhythm and improvisation by playing along to backing tracks. They are one of the most underappreciated tools in 21st Century/digital age guitar learning.
backing tracks are a staple. Improvising can become a style if you do it long enough. My best playing is always improvising
One of the best lessons I've ever seen
Mike, thanks for decoding so simply. This really helps tie together a lot of other “methods” to make it more fluid. I’ve been working on modes using the “3 on a string” shape method (not sure where I learned it, maybe you, maybe Creative Guitar Studio or Marty. . .), which helped me personally gain smother flow up and down the neck. This unlocks the connection I was “feeling”, but I couldn’t “see” what I felt. Be safe my 🎸 brother
If anyone was wondering if you should buy this guy course or not… I personally 100% recommend it yo 😂 This man taught me guitar!
What you just laid out there I was never taught as a student, thankful I saw this
Improvising is one of my major lesson tasks at the moment.
Using the g major scale across the strings, learning where all the g notes are has been another small part. I've been using a lot of the YT backing tracks, I try and use a different one each time. So this is absolutely perfect! Looking forward to trying this out 🤘🏻🔥
I love how big music is and can give a lifelong hobby of learning to improve!
Yes indeed my friends! Yes indeed! Music is life!😁💓🎶
The world needs more videos like this
I’m looking forward to this one! I just started getting into improv and making up solos
Wow!! that has just blown my mind? Thanks for Sharing thaT!
Thank you
I need more lessons like this🤘🏻👍🏻
I recently started visualizing the Major scale into two string patterns (6 notes each pattern - 3 notes per string) similar to what you’re doing here only difference is it only uses two different patterns (shapes) that fit together by stacking them on top of each other. The key is knowing the position of the Key note and the relative minor note (6th tone) in each of the patterns. Pattern 1 is symmetrical on both strings and starts with the Keynote on the first note of the bottom string- 2nd pattern is what I call the bridge which starts on the bottom string (3rd tone) and ends on the Keynote on the top string (the next octave). From that keynote on the top string I play the next pattern (same shape as pattern 1) starting with the 5th tone on the bottom string (below the top string keynote) and play the same pattern as pattern 1 only starting with the 5th tone (bottom string) until you stop on the 3rd tone on the top string. From here you just shift that same entire pattern up a half step from the 3rd tone top string and you’re back to pattern 1 starting with the Keynote on the bottom string all over again. It’s confusing at first until you get the hang of it but once you memorize stacking these shapes on top of each other it make’s visualizing things so much easier!
Thanks for the shapes, looking forward to playing with them
I really loved your solo at the beginning of the video! Nice, melodic lines!
Me too, really nice.
That rake at the beginning. Love it
wow i saw this last night and had to try it. this works. i just played in g major than in em since em is the relative the shapes are the same. its very easy knowing where those notes are and the same shapes apply. its nice to use to pass and get to other postions and knowing the scales in those areas add more for decending and just to play with. thanks for this!!!
I literally watched Donnie Darko yesterday. Great video. I teach this to my guitar students first soloing lesson
Thank you for the lesson! Great vid and 2 thumbs up. I like your approach and insight'🎸
The Art of Guitar: Making my Sunday mornings bearable!! :) Awesome playing and tone man!
Hell yeah! Finally a new breakthrough!!!
I like your approach and I just picked up my guitar to incorporate this into my playing. Thank you. I subscribed too.
This dude is smart
One of the best guitar channels
This is really good content Mike. Thanks!
Amazing. Thanks for changing my playing in a single video 😂. I know all of my modes pretty well, but this connects them so much more.
Improvising is my life. I'd go insane playing everything the same way every time.
Learn the five pentatonic positions move em around, and get minor, major, dorian etc.In every key.
Nothing worse than seeing people stick to root and octave positions.
No such thing as mastering the guitar, always something to explore and learn. Love it!!
Great lesson here for starters.
I'm a minor player. I just love melodic tones but I have to get back to major for awhile. I'm a David Gilmour junkie. This lesson is going to help me so much. Such a easy way to take change it up. Cool thanks
New guitar?
Thanx for making this video, Mike. It really gave me something to think about.
Cool, I try it out. I like the concept of starting in the middle.
These type of smooth curved guitar bodies in white (various Ibanez models) did it for me when I was 11 years old, I knew then I had to have my own electric guitar
Hello from France,Excellent démo and analysis thank you.
I love that guitar! I came to this video after just having watched a live version of Joe Satriani’s “Cryin’”. I recognized the guitar in the thumbnail as an Ibanez JS guitar by the single coil Sustainiac in the neck position and the smooth curves. I’m very tempted to get one.
You’re freaking awesome bro I love it. I may be able to go somewhere.
Thanks so much for this lesson!
That Darko sticker is perfect for that guitar.
Thanks Brother 🤟😎
Good Lesson !!🤠🎸
Much appreciated
😁👍
Smart and easy to follow. Thank you.
Thank you for this tip! It’s definitely something I’ll use and the value provided is amazing.
Why doesn’t this come up on other instructional videos? You may have come up with something truly unique.
I forgot to mention that when demonstrating the technique I got a definite feeling that the sound was reminiscent of “Thin Litzy’s” “Whisky In The Jar”
Great tone and a great song!!
wow, great lesson, simple, and Memorable !
i think i may have leveled up by doing this for 15 minutes.
👏👏👏👏
WOW! Now this one definitely locked it in for me. Totally perfect timing too, was right on what I was trying to see in the scales. The rest of the shapes are falling into place really fast.
Wow, thank you this is so helpful 🤘
Wow. Very helpful. Thanks!
Great lesson. Thank you sir.
Great lesson!! Cool guitar too!
Another great track bravo my friend peace and love
I feel like you just broke me out of my box of confusion 🙏
Excellent lesson. Months of study involved
Hey man, I really enjoy your content, and presentation.
This video inspired me to do a very similar lesson on my channel....As a thank you ai included a link in my description back to this lesson.
Great approach! I found the same thing a few weeks ago. I’ve been trying to explain it to my beginner student. He’s quite advanced in a very short time. I can’t get him to see this however. I’m gonna let you explain it to him. 😅. Sometimes it’s the delivery. I think you did a nice job. Thank you…
Damn brother, that tone is on the money. Giving me serious '80s Satch vibes.
Awesome video, thanks a lot
❤ That's really cool. Thank You.
This is big! Just have to merge with scales and modes. David Gilmore stuff. Never seen this before, it’s golden. Thanks!
Dude, that opening lead was awesome! Tender, warm, tasty.
Hey Mike, nice solo & tone in intro, & good lesson I've always loved soloing in 6 note groupings & shifting them across the neck works great for moving sequences through octaves & positions
Honor coming from you!
@@TheArtofGuitar Thanks Mike ❤🤘
@@TheArtofGuitarthat solo was beyond sick af man🤘. I showed my mom and she said “ now that’s a guy who can rip a guitar solo.
Now you shred - great channel for backing tracks.
OMG... So simple and perfect. I've learned all the big shapes for most scales... BUT I've come to learn that the best and most creative playing often comes from thinking in smaller shapes. Thanks for putting this together in such a digestible way.
Great lesson thank you 🙏 😊
Frank the Bunny!!!! Awesome!! Your really great!
Wow this is a real game changer, cant believe i never thought like that before
Cheers lad this helped me loads
Great info!! Thanks....🎸
Thank you it will help me to improve my soloing🙂🙏🎸
A great approach.
Thanks, cool stuff.
Genius! Thanks !
thanks! this is really great
Man...that's one of my dream guitar
Love the Donny Darko sticker!
1:03 messed with my brain for a bit haha
Great video Mike.
I usually start circa 5th to 7th fret because I started off with blues, which had a lot of lines around there. Someone mentioned when I solo, I start in the middle then move high, then back to middle, then low then back to the middle and repeat. I don't often do 'jumps' but ascend or descend trying to link everything, but I have a couple of bigger moves to straddle more space without sounding too obvious.
I play a lot of major scale/dom7 stuff and was playing mixolydian by accident, just modifying the 7th note to suit. I now base most things off that mixolydian fingering, modding as required to fit. If I start something in a particular non-diatonic scale or mode, I tend to mod away and back from that, rather than use anything mixolydian.
I was playing some Dorian stuff recently, after a lot of fusion players were constantly mentioning it, which I hadn't examined, but after playing I found it surprisingly familiar. I realised it was Celtic folk music I'd played in the past. I then wondered why folk players would use it. I suspect it's because, on diatonic folk instruments, you can get most of a minor scale just one note higher than its key note vs 5 note higher for a full relative minor. I now run the same note-order of lines, in dorian, melodic minor, harmonic minor and minor, in sequence just to hear how they sound
Thank you, sir.
that is such a sick guitar.
Thanks Brutha!
This is MY comment and I'm going to take this lesson and apply it to MY guitar 🙂
