@@mihaipop4105 Hey! It's all the same for minor keys. Nothing changes because you just base the shape around the "relative minor". I'd recommend watching this video for a little more context: th-cam.com/video/6CiDlJepl-o/w-d-xo.html
@@andrewclarkeguitar I thought that since a minor scale is different than a major scale, this pattern must look different for minor keys. But what you say is that, basically, if i have a song in Em, i can use this pattern for G. And for Dm, i'll this lattern for F. So if we have a song in minor key we don't mind because we'll find its relative major and do this pattern. Is that correct? Thank you very much!! This is helpful when you have a band and someone says to you: the song is in G and we' ll do 1-4-5 progression
2:25 That G# diminished, are you at 11th fret on A & G string then 12th fret on D & B string? I've seen the shape you are using before but on that G string you'd be on Gb rather than G#. The chart I'm looking at shows (other than the root note) what looks like a D major shape whereas it looks like you are doing a D7 shape (other than root). Am I wrong? Am I even making sense? 🤣 I tried it both ways and they both sound like a chord. Your way sounds better but these diminished chords always sound funny by themselves anyway. That position in the pentatonic scale has always been my favorite too especially with the blue notes added. Can I use that blue note (b5) with this "method" ?
I've been learning guitar for 50 yrs or so. I really like your 221-2221 phone number format for memorizing intervals. LoL. Lots of good tips and teaching on your channel. I love the note/fretboard diagrams and combining all 3 scale types in one position (pentatonic, major, minor) that really helps me put things together in a very useful way. I also appreciate your clear and concise way of speaking and communicating. Thank you.
"Thank you so much for accepting my request and sharing this wonderful video! Your support means a lot to me. Keep shining!" Waiting for the next one……🎉❤
I love how you explain how box 1 pentatonic fits into the two road maps. This has given me a light bulb moment. Thank you for showing how all these concepts (chords, scales, arpeggios, triads modes etc) interact . Please continue doing videos on the interaction of these concepts Craig Ewinger
your videos are really helping me understand, rather than just play along. after watching and implementing many of your concepts in other videos, i'm starting to recognize that there is a relationship between all these things i see in songs i play compared to the common music theory you mention. it's a lot of 'aha' moments. this video in particular is really helpful just not to get freaked out about how big the fretboard is.
i wish youtube existed back when i first started to learn. These concepts that were very intimidating just need the right teacher. You are a great teacher, looking forward to future videos. @@andrewclarkeguitar
Great lesson Andrew. I haven't watched one of your videos in a good 9-12 months and there's been a huge jump in the production value. Looking and sounding great!
What a fantastic lesson man! The on screen fretboard just makes it SO easy to follow along. Thank you so much for this lesson. Can't wait to internalize these shapes!
This is perfect young man. Thank you so much for sharing this I took lessons recently, and this is everything I was taught, and it's great to have this video to go to for a refresher to practice.!!🎉
Thanks for the video, Andrew. I'm learning so much. Quick question: How do you get the notes to play from a scale such as the F# minor pentatonic. Which are F#,A,B,C#,E How are the notes chosen?
You're welcome! We create the minor pentatonic scale from the minor scale by removing notes number 2 & 6. We create a major pentatonic scale from the major scale by removing notes number 4 & 7.
Hey Andrew, thanks for a great intro to theory video that has already opened up the fretboard for me! I wanted to save this video to my guitar playlist, but it seems like the "save to" option is disabled for your videos. Not sure if this was intentional but thought you should know, thanks!
Hey! That's super weird. It might just be a bug because I'm seeing the option when I look. 🤔 If you're on a mobile device you'll have to scroll horizontally to see it.
Good teaching man! Do you think this should be learned before the caged system? I’m just trying to bridge theory with practice right now and i’m kind of overloaded with video’s and ways to learn it, thanks in advance!
@@andrewclarkeguitar Question, I was using this backing track in A major. (A, F#m, D, E) and using the the chord framework and pentatonic scale I was able to freestyle a little bit, however, the 6th fret on the E string also sounded good even though its not noted in the 'scale' why is this?
@@marlonknockaert3233 Interesting. The sixth fret on the E string would give you the major 3rd of the F#, making it sound like a major chord which can sometimes sound good in bluesier music. But I'd need to listen to the exact track myself and analyse it to be sure.
Is there a way to get the shapes through the TH-cam channel sub? I'm looking for that moveable 7th chord diminished shape...channeling my inner George Harrison today. I take it you use the little dominant 7 triad triangle on the 5th, 4th and 3rd strings and just modify to have a flat 5th?
It's super hard to see sorry. It's 1st finger barring the root on the 5th string and b7 on the 3rd string. And then 3rd finger half fret up on the 4th string (b5) and then pinky on the 2nd string half fret up (b3.) I think? You make that shape look super easy 😂
@@tw0pointoh654 the video I linked in my last comment has the actual chord diagrams there that show the exact fingering. Should be easier than trying to explain it through text 😅
Curious I am new to this thinking and by the way just watching a few of your videos and the way you teach I have already had some “a ha moments” 😂 I understand what you are saying regarding finding your chords then your pinky is the connection between the pentatonic scale ( I think I said that right) but what if you start on the F bar shape there is no where to connect the pinky to a pentatonic scale? Like I said I am a beginner so be kind in your answer😂 I look forward to more of your videos and teachings🤘🏻 Craig
Hey Andrew, great video. Quick question: How do you get the relative minor key from a scale say for A major is F#, but when I apply the 221-2221 formula I get different notes than from the scale diagrams on Google. Help me and thank you.
The relative minor is based on the SIXTH note in the major scale. So if you apply 221-2221 starting on the A note, you'd get: A(I) - B(ii) - C#(iii) - D(IV) - E(V) - F#(vi) - G#(vii). Meaning F# would be your relative minor key. There are tons of different places to play that exact scale all over the fretboard, so it's possible that the diagrams you're seeing are just in a different position, however, the notes would still be the same. Hope that helps!
I’ve found that saying the 2, 3 and 6 chords are minor is a source of a lot of confusion. For example, it’s easy to think when you’re playing in C you will always have Dm, Em, and Am when it’s very common to have other versions such as D7, E7 and A7. Might be better to say the 3 notes that make up the chords C, Dm, Em, etc can be found in the Cmaj scale. Sorry, not trying to be a wise guy but I’ve run into people at jams who have heard this and think they are limited to just the minor versions of 2, 3 and 6.
