😂I thought it was invented by guitar magazines in the 80’s!

This is so good. I swear the TH-cam app is listening in on me because I started ear training recently. Your examples of the octave being played right before the major 6th and how that can confuse the ear.. actually happened to me today lol.

This piece some how brings me to memories of something if never experienced how is that possible

I used to worry about being out of tune, before I realized that Instruments aren't in tune, and some note pairing are further out than others. Most listeners probably don't notice.

Ok you lost me on thirds. All of the seconds start with the root (AB, BC, CD, etc). The thirds start that way (AC, BD) but the for the 3rd row (CC), the third is listed as EG. Isn’t the 3rd of C an E? And then in th next section where you pair 2nds/7ths and 3rds/6ths,you do show CE as the thirds…..

Feel like most of my 10 year music theory knowledge concluded into 1 clips 😮 bravo

This was strange. I basically knew all this stuff but haven't actually realized what it meant. And now that it was said out loud it was in a way mind blowing. This felt like I was de-ja-vuing all the time - and that soothing as-a-matter-of-fact voice made it even more surreal. Now I finally understand WHY I do what I do whenever I do it. That is a sign of a well done tutorial.

Thanks for the lesson. This is extremely helpful.

Very helpful music theory info. Very annoying background music! Thanks for posting

Thanks, that's insightful. But what is the consequence, what is the best solution, tuning the guitar by freds, by flageolet or by ear ... ?

Great advice. Thanks!

Good tips and i'm sure they will help a lot of guitarist. After playing for ten years the most effective method to learning new chords and switching between them has simply been lots of repetition strategically structured. 5 minutes practice per session then take a break and practice something else. Come back to chord changing practice a bit later in that session / next day / few days later and repeat. Most of the time i'll see some improvement, (even within the same practice session after taking a little break). If I hit a 'plateau'* and begin to notice little improvement after a while, i'll take a break from it for a week or two and somehow i'll have gotten better in that time. If there any trick its not to try and rush or force the progress. Remain relaxed, it'll come in its own time, and pretty much guaranteed IF you KEEP practicing it. * i've found you never really hit a plateau as such but the improvements are just so imperceptible we are not able to notice them, but they are processing and developing in the background regardless. Good luck to everyone on there guitar journey. Its well worth it and a big return on a relatively (but repeated!) small investment of your time over a few years.

Thanks for sharing how to strum with your right hand and coordinate your Left hand holding the chord in a slow learning progressively manner until you got the right correct sound. Most beginners struggle with holding full chord and maybe this is the best ways to begin teaching them correctly.

I've never tried the "just keep strumming" exercise. It sounds like an excellent thing to do.

I think what he's trying to say in a nutshell is, don't let the barre chord drive you to the bar. 🍺🍷😂

it also helps if you're a child with a smooth finger shape. Adults have more structured fingers which have ridges and the barre needs to be developed in both your flesh and your technique. i have a callous on every segment of my forefinger and its permanently numb on the inside because as i grew up playing guitar it damaged the nerves and rubbed on the bone inside my finger and barres are easy for me and have been for a long time - but i had to hurt my hand to do it

See how nice and perpendicular his index finger is to the fretboard? I can't do that. If I try, my middle and ring fingers are bent toward the index finger. I'd have to physically pry them apart. The tip of my ring finger actually touches my middle finger. I can live without barre chords.

Thanks, very clear and precise! This might be the best way to actually read music notation !!😅

In my opinion, its all about thumb placement

Great job! You got right to the point without a lot of chatter and I learned a lot. Thank you.

Been playing for 45 years. Finger picking has always been my weakest point. This might be a breakthrough for me. Thanks

Good tip and that guitar playing was dope

can you play wonderwall?

I don't even play guitar but this video is nice

Nice work, keep it up!!!

You are welcome!

I’m almost 66 and started playing at 16…..I got into barre chords quickly and it was a game changer…..I became a Lifelong rhythm guitarist. I do play lead too…..but I would say rhythm guitar is my happy place.

Well that E-F / B-C tidbit is really helpful. Thanks!

I use BnE. Break and Enter for the notes with no sharp.

Thank you!

I don't like the advice of "Fake it til You make it." That's a good way to develop a habit that's too hard to break. Slow is steady, steady is fast. You can't do anything fast that you can't do slow. Practice accuracy, speed will come.

I fight with my guitar between perfect tuning an E chord then I play G and it sounds horrific. This video exactly describes every day battles I have with my guitar, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this! 😂

Dude, the opening two minutes were great. I saw it coming and I love it. I needed this reminder!

Here's a link to a PDF (w/TAB) of the opening music: 👇blue-krystal-62.tiiny.site

The wrong (bent) finger movements can be avoided by starting with apoyando (rest stroke) instead of tirando, since in apoyando, you already use the right ligaments at the base of your fingers. From there you can start playing chords with a separate bass stroke (with the p) follow by three simultaneous trebles (ima) as the first tirando attempt. You will see that you will automatically use the ligaments at the BASE of im and a, instead of bending in the middle of those three fingers. I really like your explanation that uses the argument of a stronger, better tone by bending the right ligaments and keeping the other ones relatively straight. Making the fingers i and m "walk" like a pair straight little legs in apoyando (rest stroke) is a good start for a powerful stroke. Then add the a. Then go to tirando by playing the chords as described.

Excellent video wish I had this advice when I first discovered bar chords. But there is one small thing you missed, frequently (for me usually) you do to need to play the high E, which great for A and G shaped chord.

This is the technique I learned from John Griggs in Norfolk VA, starting in 1973. He had studied with Sophocles Papas, who worked with whom?

I liked your witty use of engineers fixing solar panels to a roof . . . The panels really did look like giant fretboard diagrams . . . ☺

Wow, your video explains every essential point one could say about practicing barre chords. The only thing extra I would add is to use lower tuning first ( which is not necessary. ) I used the tuning trick on one super playable guitar ( got 6 ) with a student struggling with barre. DGCFAD

Barre chords are easy. This video is bogus.

A barre is what ballet dancers use. A bar chord is played on a guitar

I am only Seconds in, but i need to ask: do we have a tab for your Intro? If so, how do I purchase it? ❤

I've explained it in a few ways to others. If you have seen the movie Ben Hur, during the sea battle scene, watch how the oars are moving on the Roman Trimarines. Your fingers should move like that! Another way is from an old tv commercial, (if you're old enough to remember dial phones) for the Yellow Pages. The jingle went, "Let your fingers do the walking through the Yellow Pages". "Walk" your fingers on the strings like that!

Holding a ping pong ball, really works! Thank you.

I must be blessed as I am self taught and have always finger picked in the correct way, it’s always just felt the right way, and most efficient way to do it.
