  • I often hear from students how they want to learn to embellish chords, so that's what we'll talk about in this video...
    I was inspired by "The Weight," by The Band, and the little intro that is played at the top of it.
    I originally played it in an 'E' shape, but later saw Robbie Robertson play it in a 'C' shape and thought that might make a cool lesson.
    So grab your guitar, I hope you enjoy it.

    I love lessons like this. Messing with chords/triads and pentatonic shapes are some of my most valuable and memorable fret board discoveries.

    Superb. Clear. Expansive. Mind blown

    That was 15 minutes well spent!
    How I hadn't seen the chord/pentatonic tie-up for infills before is beyond me

    Wow,this was great fun. I knew about the relationships between the pentatonic shapes and the CAGED chords but I never quite had it under my fingers. Now, as I noodle along while following you, I can feel it coming together. Maybe, I'm just ready for it. It's definitely in my learning program for a while. Thanks for the great lesson.

    Thank you very much for this lesson. I love lessons like this. I really liked how you explained it using the CAGED system and the pentatonic scale. I hope you'll do more like this.

      @@keithclark486 No, I have been working and after that been to tired to try. But ... some day! Right now I listen to others playing instead: that's more beautiful to the ears. ;)
