Your videos are rapidly making me a better guitar player. You're the best guitar teacher on TH-cam, very practical lessons that I can apply to playing and songwriting. I hope your channel gets huge, thank you!
@@ssdelmar Not sure if this is what you mean but this is a common way to use major and minor pentatonic, especially in blues and rock. Major Pentatonic on the I chord, then Minor Pentatonic on the IV chord. I have a video about that here: th-cam.com/video/K9QdVkZIxAo/w-d-xo.html Or if you mean connecting the chords with a scale, you could use this as a launch out of a G major bar chord and then just grab the Bm chord which will be nearby. This video doesn't do exactly that but could be easily adapted to: th-cam.com/video/-IsaY00TUcw/w-d-xo.html
I agree 100%. There are a lot of YT lessons. A lot of them are good but Blue is a real teacher. That is a gift! I learned to play 6 monts ago. All from YT channels. I played things that sounded nice but I didn't understand the whole spectrum of what I was doing. Till I found the Blue's channel. Suddenly it's like a messy puzzle where the picture is showing up and the missing pieces are reached in an understanding way so it fits together and I can remember it.
Dude, I have learned so much from you! I’m normally not one for leaving comments, but you’re playing and method of teaching has literally change the way I think about guitar. Thank you so much for all your videos.
I very quickly hit the subscribe button. I didn't know it was legal to use the blue note with a major chord. Plenty of people out there that can teach you how to play a song. This teaches you how to play guitar.
You are right. I NEVER see videos on how to tie it all together like this. There are scale videos and chord videos, bits and pieces, but not how to actually use the together and play some music. This is the sort of stuff I need to know. Thanks. Got more of this stuff?
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Cant afford it. I am old school musician. I barely am 1/2 step up from living on the streets. I have no money, none, only 2 guitars. I can not afford a damn thing.
15-years ago I asked my guitar teacher how I could move fluidly from rhythm to lead and back again. Thank you for answering. Something I'd love you to expand on... more rhythm licks. Playing only on the one is perfect for this lesson. But 1 or 2 bar rhythm licks would add so much. Wishing you great success with your channel. Subscribed.
You have the greatest technique of explanations I have ever been exposed to. Ive been around a guitar since I was a kid (62years old) dad had a 57 tele, he bought my older brother a fender newporter so I was exposed. Having said that I didn’t get my own until 1988 self taught having stolen licks and phrases over the early years. I stalled, could play but could not advance until I found the holy grail of teaching yes you I have advanced more in three days than in my whole guitar playing life!!!!! Thank you for providing your teaching skills to the masses Im blessed to have found you on TH-cam Tom
So glad I found your lessons, I’ve been stuck and struggling, the two lessons on chords and how to tie them to licks are very good, would like more of the same please
This is one of the best lessons I have ever seen: at the end of the video you say that chords and scales are taught separately usually: totally agree. Thank you so much for posting this lesson. Amazingly clear and informative lesson!
This is the first time I am staring to understand how to improvise over chord changes instead of just noodling in the same key and hitting chord tones when i get lucky lol. Thx
I think playing chords and single notes is the ultimate of playing guitar, not only is this a great lesson for that but it also allows you to make up your own licks and melodies, your teaching style is first class.
Thank you, that's great to hear! Lots more lessons like it on this channel and our Patreon group if you haven't already checked that out: www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Another absolutely fantastic light bulb turned on lesson. Thanks so much, your insight into understanding and teaching is amazing. I jumped up at least six months in my guitar learning journey with these two videos!!!
Awesome, Love how you connect Chords with licks, I have been trying to understand the concept for Years and now I have a clearer understanding of it in a week, Practice on ,Yes, Thank you so much, Im looking forward to more clear lessons Happy Christmas to you
Danke für dieses und alle anderen Videos ! Du ermutigt mich enorm und erklärst Theorie auf sehr verständliche und praxisnahe Weise. Und du frischst noch ganz nebenbei meine Englischkenntnisse wieder auf :-)
You're the most innovative guitar teacher on the web. You have a unique insight into things which make sense, things which are hiding in plain sight. Thanks!
Hi Blue, another amazing lesson, perfect place to pick up from the last marvellous lesson and tie it all together. You should know that you’ve really hit on something here as this is exactly what so many of us ‘almost intermediate’ novice players are needing and looking for. Another long Sunday practice session ahead, beautiful guitar as well! Thank you ever so much!
Just wanted to second this comment. Just having someone spell out what seems obvious after the fact, but giving us those aha moments once the fog lifts!
when you speak it's not too fast and not too slow... you seem very friendly... your just a good teacher and I feel like you can take a beginner type and LAUNCH them into inermediate type....me like... 😃
I appreciate you giving some practical ideas along with a chord progression to work with to glue it together. It'd be great if you keep building on this. Suggestion, would like to see a video that breaks down different embellishments, extensions added along with different intervals/dyads used for color and transitions. Some popular rock examples would be great too! I find knowing CAGED system and Pentatonic boxes helps connect this together, because each major and minor chord form has an underlying scale. When you know them, you know what notes are playable for each chord.
You have in my opinion, one of the Best topics of discussion which ties the triads with the scales whether minor or major in an eloquent way. You are in the pocket. Thank you
Good stuff. The more I progress on guitar, the more it comes down to just digging farther into the basics and knowing just different ways to play the basics really well.
I did know these things in parts and pieces. However, I didn't knew how to put them together so I could sound like I knew what I was doing. Now I do. Fantastic instruction !!
Wow! Finally made sense of it all, you made it simple where others don’t .. I’ve watched hundreds and hundreds of videos. Your a great teacher! Thanks 🙏 ❤
Years I've spent on my own trying to crack the notes to chords code. 17 minutes with you on this (and your previous "The Most Useful Lick..") video and everything is as clear as day. You've opened up an entirely new 'fun window' on guitar for me. You have an incredibly straightforward teaching style. And... a new fan in me. Immense and sincere thanks.
AMazing lesson!!! between this and the last video I think this is the best single lesson I have ever seen and it took less then 45 minutes combined. You are a great teacher. Look forward to checking out your book
Thanks Blue, there's incredible value in your lessons for someone like myself, the beginner/intermediate/hopeful 😃 Keep up the good work, it's appreciated!
A great lesson. Well explained, easy to understand concepts that are ‘real world’ I only wish that there were teachers like yourself back in the days when I was starting out learning the guitar. Would have saved me a lot of wasted time. Thank you.
Hey man, just came across your channel. Although I'm already familiar with this, you do an excellent job explaining clearly connecting cords using this pattern. I wish I found an explanation this clear years ago. Subscribed. Happy holidays! Cheers!
Hey Blue, in the last little while I've watched a bunch of your videos. As a lot of other people have said, your teaching method is absolutely fantastic. You've got a great way of presenting simple, yet powerful, ideas and making them stick. You've helped me make some sense of my fret board after 30 years of being a self-taught punk rock guitar player. In closing, you're awesome and thank you for your efforts.
It took me quite time to figure all that out by myself, and now i see you nailed ALL THAT TOGETHER in just a few minutes, just missing the pinky embellishments to the 3 finger chord center 1-3-5 on the B G and D String and the inverted bar chord extension of the C shape bar chord 2 frets up. And that itself directly connects to the 5 chord right on the same spot.
Blue, where have you been all my life. Your lesson here and the previous one (The most useful lick I ever learned) is what I have needed for so long. I cant wait for whats to come on this channel
New subscriber to your channel. Just wanted to thank you & say how incredibly helpful your videos like this one are. There are a ton of talented guitarist instructors on TH-cam, yet bizarrely it seems you’re the only one who’s offering these videos where you show exactly what’s going through your mind when soloing. This is the dilemma many of us face, so please keep these types of videos coming. It’s as if the other instructors either don’t understand the value in this, or they’d rather pick a topic & not deviate from it.
Thank you! That's great feedback, I have been trying to do just that -- describe what I'm thinking -- and others -- when we're soloing, especially soloing over the changes. More like it coming to the channel and our Patreon www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Hey! Enjoyed this as much as the first 😊 Can you do a chords to scales in a I IV V so it can be used in solo blues? Wish you lived closer for a lesson or two, but I'm a continent away! Cheers!
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Awesome! If possible it would be good to have a "run up" the way you have one in the "The most useful guitar lick I ever learned" video. Chord, solo, chord solo blues sounds sooo "#€%ing sweeeet, looking forward to it, already subbed ;)
This is a really exceptionally good lesson to get to playing melody with chords. Now ad some bass lines and your on the way. Build these little chord boxes to all chords and the thier inversions
You were right. This is the next step for me. Still working on the Fingerpicking Friday lesson though, its more like fingerpicking fortnight for me......... Thanks
Great lesson Blue. Thank you. Your last lesson was great as well. You touched on a piece that would tie it all together for me in both lessons but didn't expand on it. I think you called it thirds. You connected the chords with 2 note tones.. I love that sound and would love to learn more about it. Thanks for these great lessons.
Hi Paul, for sure I will make a video on thirds. I'll put it on the list. It might be a few videos later as I already have a couple lined up, but I will do a couple videos on that because I think it's such an important thing to know how to do on guitar. Thanks for the suggestion!
Great that you pointed out that scales & chords are far too often taught separately when infact they are absolutely connected 👍 That's one trap that we guitarists have been mislead by for years & it's still happening way too much.
😊❤ GREAT lesson! Even though I knew about a lot of the concepts presented….it was always in a “closed” system context.. Big lightbulb moment,for me….when i saw how they all get linked together. Thanks
Thank you Blue! I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel. I’m learning a lot. You have a very effective teaching technique. Simple, bite-sized concepts with good illustrations. I like the occasional shot of your pup too. Thanks again.
just bought book 1 and 2, I have watched a lot of video on youtube, and alot of them fell asleep during, I find your engaging and entertaining, makes you simply want to see the next one , so Im going back to the beginning of your videos, I'm an old guy never did any type of music in school and sure never picked it up in life, but now retired I picked up a guitar..or two or 5 ya know how that goes, I am great at tec, have all the cool gadgets, smart amp, personus studio 16.4.2, and even learning reaper...watching your videos I get an ahhh I get it moments all the time, thanks!!! and Hellllow from Nova Scotia !!!!
Great to hear thank you! Definitely one or two guitars turns into five or six. But that's part of the fun. Of course playing guitar is the true joy. Glad you're enjoying the videos. If you want more we have lots more on our Patreon group www.patreon.com/guitarlessonsvancouver
Great Lesson! Please make more of these for each major chord shape! This was helpful and I could see how this could open up the neck for chord/lead ideas.
I’ve learned something just from having these playing in my work truck. I’ll def watch them again when I’m at home tonight and my two boys 3 & 5 finally make it to sleep. You should break down a buckethead song or 13
Thanks Gary, new video every Saturday. I have another one similar to this coming up, though might not be released for 2-3 weeks as I'm working that far ahead.

Hey Man love to hear about that AXE.... Has to have a 5 way!!!!! KILLER... great lesson
It does. Strat pickup in the middle, five way switch. Get some unique tones with that one :)
Thank you for a very good guitar lesson on video!
Glad you liked it!
Great Lesson! Please make more of these for each major chord shape! This was helpful and I could see how this could open up the neck for chord/lead ideas.
Thanks Marcel, more like this is coming. One for the 12 bar blues is soon, I think.
I’ve learned something just from having these playing in my work truck. I’ll def watch them again when I’m at home tonight and my two boys 3 & 5 finally make it to sleep. You should break down a buckethead song or 13
Cool, thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy playing these connections.
Awesome man!! I've been dancing around this but haven't put it together. Please please keep this great stuff coming!
Thanks Gary, new video every Saturday. I have another one similar to this coming up, though might not be released for 2-3 weeks as I'm working that far ahead.
Excellent. Thank you!
