Subbed. Watched all of your videos. Made my purchase of your bundle to support your channel. As a 60-yr old Mechanical Engineer, I love your systematic approach to teaching music. Thank you.
Yup, this is how an engineer thinks. I'm an engineer who got serious about guitar at a late age, and after more than a decade of playing, I figured out these exact shapes and relationships. It took actually playing them, making music, to finally remove the barrier of thought and be able to switch keys and/or modes on the fly, unconsciously using the shapes you are showing. This is good stuff and you beat the rest of us to putting it up here for people's use. I'm congratulating you and envying you in various proportions. John Petrucci's ancient course "Rock Discipline" hints at this structure without ever spelling it out in this more useful way.
Thanks…I totally agree about the need to practice making music with these shapes. The motivation of the video is to provide a compact mental model you can use to figure these things out on the fly until they become second nature. It’s that repetition of loading up your mental RAM that eventually makes it feel intuitive. Written scale diagrams and memorizing 6-string patterns both get in the way of that, imo.
I feel very early to what is going to be a monster of a guitar instruction TH-cam channel 😬 Your animations are on point, my friend. It would be extremely helpful to have accompanying sound examples and/or demonstrations in future videos. But it's clear to see how much effort you are putting in. Keep up the good work!
My thoughts exactly, only that I would put those as additional longer video on platform like patreon as a bonus, so he can make some bucks on the go, and later that could mean more free stuff on yt :)
Thank you both…I’m new to video editing and so far mostly leveraging my corporate PowerPoint skillz (20+ years as an engineering manager, lol)…but I’ll get there!
@@fretscience well you might be new but you are already mastering the art! The audio quality is incredible, the animations are super clear. Your content is really top notch!
I was just thinking the same thing, I have been playing around 26 years and see it all but this channel is something special and very well put together
One underrated aspect of this delivery, aside from it's obvious conciseness (which is a huge plus) is it is style and "lick" agnostic. It speaks - "learn the modes and do what you want with them." It's hard to convey how refreshing that is.
I am a big fan of FS now and fortunately for me, that it clicked me at the right moment in my guitar learning journey. Being an Engineer, starting to learn guitar at 48 out of blue (not blues), what else one needs ... sheer logic, mapping and never rote learning for sure. Expressing my gratitude for your amazing efforts to simply the whole guitar dictionary terminologies into a layman's understanding! Being also a fan of Hindustani Classical, if these mappings could be traced to Indian Raagaas, would really sound mesmerizing. Thanks a billion and keep up the good work to harmonize the world.
By far the absolute best way of approaching this subject. Why do all the other channels make this so complicated 🤨 . Really appreciate you sharing this valuable information. Hope to see in the future a lesson on when to play certain modes over which chords. Already one of my favorite channels. Great job 👍💯🎸
Thanks, John! I’m always nervous when I fist upload that I haven’t made the animations or the explanations clear enough. I’m glad this one worked for you!
I've seen a couple of your lessons and am totally blown away. This was MY AHA moment. I've looked and looked for a pattern and this is the ONLY one that makes sense to me. Rock on and thanks!
You put all that together with enough context, without lacking important details, avoiding unimportant ones! Finally! Self-sufficient short and precisely holded together piece of music basics, easily understandable for anyone able to see patterns. In just two short videos. Nothing new for me, but beautifully collected in one place. Big thanks to You. Do the same about chords, really. P.S. a bit of whining Why is it commonly supposed that music is for ones who able to easily learn by heart huge amounts of stuff?.. Why is it so rare to show a beginner few basic underlying patterns (in my country and neighbors all is especially bad with that)...
@@fretscience Thank you for doing all that in text! Not yet exactly what covered in videos, but I believe 🧐🥰 You remind me of David Butler, who did kinda the same with some of physics
I've done this with 3NPS scales in my 'Traffic Light' system but I've never knew it could be applied to the 'CAGED' patterns. A brilliant lesson, thanks so much for sharing :)
Coming from a software engineering background, this scientific pattern recognition approach is an absolute gem! I managed to learn all 5 pentatonic shapes in about two hours just by internalising the two concepts of “the rectangle” and “the warp”. Your stuff is amazing, keep doing what you’re doing!!!
i've been researching available methods for guitar playing (caged, 5 hex patterns, circle of fifths...) for some time now. So far, this is the most simple one I found. It decomposes the pentatonic in two simple shapes that are linked in the fret and allow you to play in any direction. Once learned, going to heptatonic scale in any mode its quite simple (just filling the missing notes in rectangle and stack). I found myself playing any mode fluently without thinking too much about complex patterns, scale intervals, or where central tone is... The simple pentatonic rectangle also allows you to memorize absolute notes along the fret. I can now locate the E-G and A-C notes in any string all along the fret. This kind of gives you EFG and ABC all within the rectangle. The rectangle also tell you the central tone for any major/minor mode in simple way. This is a simple method that really uncovers lots of guitar problems, highly recommended. I bought the 5 cheatsheets for 10 dollars, quite cheap considering how deep this method may change your guitar playing for good.
Firstly, thank you. I have been feeling rutted out on guitar for at least a decade. I’ve watched all of your videos multiple times and I’m very thankful for your approach. I love playing guitar and am getting to explore again. Quick question: where is Lydian in the ‘Circle of Modes’ diagram?
There isn’t an in-place/CAGED fingering that starts on the fourth scale degree, so it doesn’t show up in the diagram. You could treat the “Phrygian” pattern as “Lydian” by starting on the second note, but it’s not actually helpful to name these patterns by modal names. It’s much better to know where the various scale degrees fall inside the five-string pattern, so that you can plan any of the seven modes in any of the five fingerings. I somewhat regret putting that “cycle of modes” diagram in the video, because I don’t think it’s all that helpful. I hope my explanation makes sense.
If you're new to the channel, I'd like to offer a warm welcome!

What are scales used for? Are they just bunch of notes that sound good? And the modes ar how you can make that bunch of notes sound darker or happier ? Please help me im slow with these things
At some level, scales were made to torture music students. At another, they are a way of describing a group of notes that can be used to make melodies in specific harmonic contexts. The seven modes of the major scale all contain the same notes, but they sound different depending on which note is perceived as the “home note” or tonic. Then, how dark the mode sounds is related to how many of the intervals relative to the tonic are flattened. This video explains some of it: th-cam.com/video/APS3VCvQnRk/w-d-xo.html
Thanks, Kat! Maybe someday Rick will invite me to his studio for an interview, and we'll be able to definitively prove -- by being in the same place at the same time -- that we are two different people. 🤣
@@fretscience Maybe, But with the info you share here, and the way you break it down so that it is easy to understand, I can see this channel becoming bigger than his, so maybe he'll come on to your show for an interview😁. Keep up the good work Keith, you really do have great channel and I can't wait to see it really take off, I believe you are going to have great success and I look forward to seeing it happen! Cheers, Kat.
Stick around for future videos ("ring that bell" 😜) ... I'm starting to plan out a series that deconstructs solos and explains how scales and target notes are being applied. You can also sign up for my mailing list at fretscience.com to stay in the loop about new learning materials.
I feel like when building the major scales from pentatonic, other than adding notes in the rectangle, there are notes being added the beginning of the stack patterns as well. With lots of focus, I see how it is from the overlaying patterns; however, is there a rule of thumb as well to "add a note before each line in the stack pattern" as well? I seem to be getting lost on that part.
I should probably do a quick follow up video on that…there is a pattern, and it’s a lot easier to show in a video than it is to describe in text. For Lydian/Dorian, the two extra notes are just to the left of the top two strings of the stack. For Mixo/Phrygian, they’re just to the right of the bottom two strings, and for Ionian/Aeolian, there’s one to the left of the top string and one to the right of the bottom string.
Harmonic minor has a wider interval in it that can make the most effective fingerings vary a bit more when you are dealing with “the warp” but you can certainly use a similar approach. I may make a follow-up video on that, but I’ve got a few others in the queue first 🎸🧪🤘
Not quite…you have the relationship turned around backwards. F Lydian has the same notes as C major, as does G Mixolydian. This video may help clear it up: th-cam.com/video/bFvTVnhmFfE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZUvpns4foRlq0MYv
C Lydian has the same notes as G Major (all natural notes except for the F#, which comes from the key of G) because C is the fourth scale degree of G. C Mixolydian has the same notes as F major (all natural notes except for the Bb that comes from the key of F).
In a sense, it works for any scale you can think of, but I don’t think it’s the most intuitive way to learn those scales. I need to make video about this, but if you check out my pentatonic scale video and my “hidden in plain sight” approach to the modes, you can easily play melodic and harmonic minor by thinking of them as Dorian and Aeolian with a natural seven. It’s a really easy tweak to the “rectangle and stack” shapes and everything else stays exactly the same.
