I’ve been watching your videos for just a little while now but I must say, you make this stuff way more palpable and enjoyable than a lot RUclipsrs do. I’m way behind on a lot of this stuff but I like jumping in and following along. Thank you.
Didn’t know about (or hadn’t thought about) INVERSIONS for ARPEGGIOS!! Then switching the inversions to a single root…whoa!!Great demonstrations with the loops!
Cool exercises. Very helpful. I think you got burnt out towards the end...around 19:00 minutes on you started calling out all the major arpeggios as minor...no big deal. I understood what you meant.
@@donlennon8513 thanks for the comment. Around 19:00 I was playing (and calling out) all minor 7 arpeggios. Maybe the different inversions confused you. Those are all minor 7 arpeggios.
@@sethlojo You played the minor chords/arpeggios at 19:00 unfortunately the tablature showed the major7 arps from before. Might wanna change the tab to reflect your really nice sounding ideas. Really great stuff
I bought a bunch of books recently covering topics i wish would be as digestable as your videos. I really appreciate the channel these excercises are exactly what im looking for.
Hi Seth, first viewing of your channel, really interesting but new to this modulation to other scales (if that's the correct term). You lost me at the point when the G arpeggio was built with G as the third and the underlying chord as built from the Eb (flat). The arpeggio's in the section before had been built from the G major (diatonic), if I recall correctly, but then you moved to use G as the 3rd, 5th, etc. My assumption is that you're looking for an interesting transition so used G as the third which took you to Eb as G is the third in the Eb major scale. Why choice Eb and not E min to keep it diatonic to G major scale, was it purely add colour? I notice that Eb major has the notes C and Ab which you also built chords from, other common notes on these other scales too. My thoughts are that this adds a balance on the overall piece so it does end up dissonant, eventually resolving. Am I on the right track here?
@@cliffordturner3427 Good question. The reason for the key change is that I was focusing on the major triad (or 7th chord) itself, and the inversions independent of a key. Root position, 1st inversion, and 2nd inversion. First I did all of the inversions in G major, then I did all of the inversions with G as the lowest note. In root position G is the root, so it's a G major. In 1st inversion, G is third, so that makes it an Eb major. In 2nd inversion, G is the fifth, so that makes it a C major. When G is the 7th, it's an Ab major 7. If you were to use A instead of G, you'd end up with A major, F major, and D major. I hope that clears it up!
Yes. I play these ones because they're efficient, consistent, and comprehensive. As I said in the video, there are many ways to play any arpeggio. These are just a few that I like.
I am glad to receive another one of your lessons!
I’m coming back to this. You do a good job keeping it simple and slow enough to follow but not too slow to be annoying.
Wow, Thank you Seth Johnson very awesome guitar lesson
Thank you so much!
Love your lessons and breakdowns and the fact you are adding the diagrams is even better! thank you 🔥

@@deaconddd thanks so much!
I agree having the tabs on screen for these high level arpeggios is pure gold to me...
First video I see, and I had the best practice so far, much appreciated… saludos desde Costa Rica
LOVE that Eastman!! Thanks for creating this lesson. Very helpful!!
Love these exercises, Seth, fantastic.
Great lesson, thank you.

Excellent study. Thank you 💯
Gracias
............... cool, thx !
Awesome video!!!!!
Cool!
Thanks mate

Do you use lubricant on your strings before you practice/perform. I noticed a gloss on your fretboard.
I use Dr. Duck's Axe Wax, but i think my hands were just sweating, It was hot that day.
Is there a reason for playing the arpeggios with those fingerings?
Yes. I play these ones because they're efficient, consistent, and comprehensive. As I said in the video, there are many ways to play any arpeggio. These are just a few that I like.
That intro sounds like a phish tune
Great lesson thank you 🙏 😊
