Came back for a second visit to this video solely because I love the Salty Comments portions of SD videos. Thought I'd add to the lesson explanation about moving from the low E string to the A string to go up the scale. All strings are tuned to 5ths (aside from that damn B string - tuned to a 4th). This means that the same note on the E is the same note on the A...3 frets down, Add 2, 3+2 = 5, and you have your next note in the scale on the A string (noting the C & F notes are 4 frets down due to their lack of flats). This is why barre chords work (barre chords use the 1/root & the 5th notes in a chord - throws out the 3rd) and they can be easily played using the E, A & D strings. Salty comments welcomed, I wouldn't mind being featured in a future video.
Sean, blindly stumbled across you a few years ago and sadly didn’t take your videos very seriously. Not sure why I stumbled back (funny as it has happened numerous times under different circumstances) but glad I did. I think you are very gifted instructor and your advice has hit me exactly where I have needed a boast, to move my guitar journey along in a refreshing and educational way. My only comment, semi request, would be too slow down just a tad and actually approach the videos in true instructional mode verses conversation mode. My guitar playing has taken a huge mental leap forward and out of a big rut, thanks to you. It doesn’t jump out at me if you have a patron page with formal instructions (important marketing note, make it EASY for your prospective customer to part with his cash, lol). Regardless, THANK YOU and sorry for the long “short comment”.
Bass players call that a drop - using the open string below to go down an octave for interesting movement without it sounding like a jarring interval jump.
so you keep the 3th and 5th while changing the root within the scale of the key of the chord? is it the chord key or song key? so if the song is in A and you play a G chord, do you move within the G scale?
Yamaha acoustic! Get yourself a Pacifica to demo on the channel. Great guitar.
Always love how you present these chord progression/song ideas with a touch of theory. Really helps me play guitar a little better every day.
So happy I haven't tried alternate tunings these last two decades

Can you do a video showing us how to play flamenco as well. Love your teaching.
Man I'd have to get better at flamenco before teaching it. Maybe I'll invite a guest on!

The C progression sounds like the song Mr Bojangles - a wonderful song
Sean, when I'm not blaming you for something, I'm looking, thinking, or dreaming of something to blame you for...just thought you should know ✌
So glad I watched this as I was thinking about trying an open tuning.
Close one. 😉
Still holding the Yammy
Oh!
Cool, thanks. I knew the C one but the B line is cool.
That´s the only way to stop the abrupt pauses when changing your Chords
10:54 that guy sounds like he’d be real fun at a party. Said no one here. Or ever.
so you keep the 3th and 5th while changing the root within the scale of the key of the chord?
is it the chord key or song key?
so if the song is in A and you play a G chord, do you move within the G scale?
Reminds of happiness by ES
yeah, Vitafusion, wacha gon do Bro?
Thanks for the music theory hack. Very helpful!! Salty Bluees Comment, too funny.
