These are golden tid bits for us old "mis-taught" slingers...by far one of the best youtube guitar channels in exisitence.....thx GT....especially admire your other life observations in between tid bits...totally relatable....
This is good. I did not understand caged really until I did a triad study and just realized, hey - if you have the 135 in any key, you’ve got the major/minor chord, and the guitar is set up in a way where you get basically three main ways and two alternate ways to do that but give you five hand positions for the same chord across the whole octave. Then I had to learn all the notes on the neck to figure out how to get the three notes. Then I realize what spread triads were. Then I realized you can overlay the pentatonic and the full major scale in the same hand positions. Then I had to practice this for like six months in every key. Then I asked myself why I put off doing this for like 35 years! It’s because I was scared, it was easier to just fling my fingers around and play intuitively, but I really like this now. Anywhere I end up I can kind of pick up a shape from there and I’m not lost.
I have a long way to go. Been a life long player. But your channel and Uncle Larry’s as well as others Brett Papa, Ford, etc…. Have allowed me to improve immensely over the last couple of years. Thank you!!!!
Me too. Been playing forever and I know CAGED very well but I’ve picked up tons of very useful pieces from both GT and Uncle Larry. Valuable stuff that has really improved my playing.
Life Pro Tip: If you want to “get it”, take the time to really memorize the notes on the fretboard, to the level of instinct. This all gets SO much easier, to see these note patterns, when you’re literally seeing (and thinking) “in notes”, rather than in string numbers and fret numbers.
Yes, learn the notes and also intervals. It all goes together. Intervals are to me the foundation and learning the notes really sets you free in a lot of ways.
Remember a few years ago when people were asking if guitar music was “dead”? Well, it’s back to life and bigger than ever thanks to selfless guys like this spreading their knowledge online for FREE. So life-affirming. Thanks Guthrie.
Is it just me or are these intros just pure guitar Bliss? Stay for the insight, but your intros are always just tasty as can be....could listen all damn day
Thanks for these last few lessons on connecting the chord shapes. Its helping me. Slowly but surely I will get better. I must say You have gotten alot better at explaining what your seeing and showing how you go about it. Thanks for even caring to help other get better brother.
Gunther, I’m 74 years old. Started playing when I was 13 stopped when I was 20. Picked up my guitar when Covid started. Been playing ever sense. move from California to Florida,I was in Nashville for four months took some lessons wish I would’ve known about you then. You have open the door for me with the cage. I’ve used the cage system over the years, but could never see it like you explain it. I should say the doors just cracked open, but you really open my eyes. Thanks so much. Renold Victor
Thanks for everything Guthrie, you’ve helped my playing tremendously! I know CAGED well but I’m picking up other valuable stuff in every video. Keep em coming mate!
Guthrie I commented before I saw the last 6 minutes of your video. I’m 2 + years into playing. I’m working through pentatonics vertically. Happen to be working on G and you laid out the chord shapes within the G scale. K’Boom! Lightbulb moment. Thank you so much!!
Thank you for this amazing lesson! Your explanation of the CAGED system and how chord shapes, arpeggios, and the major scale connect really opened my eyes to the fretboard. Greetings from Morocco ☀
Jordan and Tim are phenomenal in every sense of that word. Magical stuff, GT!! You guys have redefined the way I understand music by orders of magnitude.
I took a bunch of those lessons, Guthrie but this one just laid it out perfect even though I knew it there was small things that just made sense the way you described it in that video I’ll never forget it. I got a long ways to go and I’ve already traveled 1,000,000 miles studying. Thank you for all your help.
I bought it about a year ago. I have learned one and a half of his tabbed songs! Lol! He takes you places on the guitar neck you have never gone. You are right, such a great value.
Hey GT, Thanks to you a fire was lit. I now understand triad shapes are repetitive within the bar chords and each is its own inversion. Super cool sh!t man. ThAnK yOu immensely for that and the ever inspiring way you talk to us. Never forget you are making a big difference in the world bro! Hitting the tip jug. 🙏🏻
MR GT Your Intro is golden 0:08 😊 This lesson is soo well explained Guthrie but what i love is , it made me laugh several times in a really good way. You are such a great person! I know you are very busy now but this videos are so great, so human. Thanks for this GT as allways! Never stop telecasting from East Nashville Tenessie, best contribution in TH-cam!
Hey Guthrie, I understand that some people are struggling with this concept, however I find your instruction very clear and appreciate it. Since having watched your first video on the CAGED system about 5 months ago, I've been having so much fun with it, ever since. And when you add a video on how you apply the system, I learn something new to add to my playing. Thanks so much for your uploads! Suzi V.
@@garrycole8909 I have the same dilemma. When he showed the wrong way to play the D shape, it was exact how I have been playing it. Not sure what is the correct way.
If I understood GT correctly he is using his index capo finger on the root of the D string, middle finger on the low E string to get the major 3rd while deadening the A string, ring and pinky on strings G and B. What I took from it was that puts his hand position where the arpeggio and scale notes fall right under his fingers in the D shape allowing him to move to the lower register toward the E shape For a G major : middle finger 7th fret low E and kill the A string. Index finger 5th fret D string. Ring finger 7th fret G string. Pinky on 8th fret B string and deaden high E. Maybe I got wrong but that’s what I got from it. Dude is Brilliant
After just being a decent rhythm player and a awful lead guy since the 90s this year 2024 I decided to truly learn the guitar. 3-5 hours practice everyday. Enrolled into a year long program. I have had so many epiphany moments. All the info is out there you just gotta practice. GT rocks, dude you just flow, i absolutely love it. Thank you from Maui 🍍🤙🌴😎🎸
Thank you for these last 3 videos. The problem I had connecting the shapes was skipping the D shape. I just was going straight to the C shape from the E shape wondering why it didn’t flow. That D shape, as you explained in this video, is such a necessary piece to the puzzle connecting E shape to C shape. Explanation I needed 30 years later! Now I see where one of those flows into another shape. I see this now! Subscribed to your course. Thanks!
Thanks, Guthrie!! Very clearly explained. Valuable knowledge. At this point, I have about 90% of the fretboard connected under my fingers, thanks in large part to you.
Man I wished I was taught this way when I first started playing.... I was pretty much shown power chords open chords and pentatonics... also the last 2 videos opened something up for me... thanks hometeam!
Great intro. I've been listening to In Stereo and can hear some similarities. I love that album; it's great to listen to on my morning walk. I'm seeing it. I'm just trying to get the fingers, right and left hands, to believe it, lol! Peace, I love your insights.
GT's output in just the past year is just incredible in terms of the amount of super high quality useful insight. These videos are going to be studied for years on YT. Maybe decades.
I’m playing the “D” shape wrong. These chord inversions open up so much possibility and so many things to learn. Here’s a warning for Guthrie. I am saving up for a Nashville vacation and guitar lesson lol!
Are you serious?!? The 2nd riffing is sooo sick! Can't believe it, really! Maaan... :) Please keep on doing lessons!!! My students are so amazed, so am I stunned and jealous a ton. ;) Greetings from Germany Quirin
This videos are fantastic. I love how GT shows the best way to approach "D Shape" and "G Shape" up the neck. I'm working on it all. One thing I'm have some trouble getting my head around is playing the changes. Hitting the common tones as the progression moves. Also, I'm working on developing a rock steady rhythm. I like to call it a musical pulse.
I can't tell you how much I apreciate your video's. To me they are a real gem here on YT! It is like sitting with a friend who happens to be a fantastic guitar player, who is rellay trying to hel[p a brother out. God bless you GT!
I stopped 2 mins in and made a 30 min practice routine to start on already 😂 - looking forward to coming back to this and doing that again and again ...and again
OMG! GT, more o' rhat 6-string goodness! The stuff you played opening today's video was really awesome! I can only hope that I'll be able to play that well someday! I always wanna watch your hands so i can learn technique...but it's hard! Cuz I just wanna close my eyes and listen to that 6-string goodness. I guess it doesn't matter, because your damn hands are movin' too fast to watch 'em anyway.... I'd sure love to come and listen to 'the trio' some Monday eve! Can't wait. Keep this shit comin' dude! It's great! Love the lesson, it means so much! Just listenin' to ya play is great. 👍👍👍 BTW: You're right! I DO know who i am! Thanks, GT.
Hey man, when you are on stage and get into that "hillbilly jazz" zone you do so well .. the whole place takes off !!!! Thanks for all the tips and encouragement.
Good stuff! Just got the special edition CD even though I don’t have a CD player anymore! Ha! Just needed to support Nashvilles finest. Keep up the great work! You inspire us all!
GT the Underdog seems to be the Nashville Baked Potato. Enjoyed many nights there with Landau. I hope to get to Nashville at some point. Thank you once again for the video! Telereceiving from NC. -Peter
Hey GT great lesson as usual. Do you have any advice or warm up routines to keep your fretting hand and fingers "healthy"? I do notice you have a pretty long stretch.
Thanks for the deep dive over the last few lessons on caged. I’m not there yet but thanks to your instruction I feel like I’m much closer. Thanks GT! 🎸👌
This is so helpful. I understand how the fretboard is organizaed now, it would be useful to know how to go about practicing all this in order to internalize it. Do I start with one note and do shape by shape, learning major/minor pentatonic in each position?
Biggest thing that helped me after I had memorized the scale shapes was to learn melodies to great songs. Seeing the melody line move between CAGED shapes was big for me. You can learn it in each position, on one string, 2 strings, all strings all positions, etc. Learn a simple melody and then learn it in another key. The more you play and put this stuff into musical practice it just gets clearer and clearer. If you find a little lick learn it everywhere you can.
Play along to a 3-chord Blues; start with one that uses E7-A7-B7. Find each of those 3 chords in all 5 positions. Start by learning 1-3-5-b7 of each chord in each position. Gradually start adding b3-4-b5-6-2 (in that order) to each of the 3 chords, one position at a time. Always know both the letter name and the interval number of the note that you’re playing. Eventually, it will become super-easy. - So learn to play a 3-chord Blues in each of the 5 positions. -
That jam at about 2:20 is similar to a bit in your NAMM show set from about 7 years ago. The one with the gal cutting in. lol. Been trying to ape that. Thanks for another window. cheers.
Im so totally new to guitar- and dream of being at your level. I bought my 1st fender strat, came in the mail yesterday. I got a great amp and a great guitar... and Im so lost in the sauce, clueless.. I know ZERO,NADA! WHATS MY FIRST THING? I HAVE NO CLUE BUT I GOT TIME AND DRIVE- BE MY TEACHER!I JUST SUBBED

This is good. I did not understand caged really until I did a triad study and just realized, hey - if you have the 135 in any key, you’ve got the major/minor chord, and the guitar is set up in a way where you get basically three main ways and two alternate ways to do that but give you five hand positions for the same chord across the whole octave. Then I had to learn all the notes on the neck to figure out how to get the three notes. Then I realize what spread triads were. Then I realized you can overlay the pentatonic and the full major scale in the same hand positions. Then I had to practice this for like six months in every key. Then I asked myself why I put off doing this for like 35 years! It’s because I was scared, it was easier to just fling my fingers around and play intuitively, but I really like this now.

Get out of here with that logic. People don't want that. They want ozempic.
Yes, learn the notes and also intervals. It all goes together. Intervals are to me the foundation and learning the notes really sets you free in a lot of ways.
I couldn’t agree more - my exact thoughts today. Discipline now reaps a later harvest. Thank you.
Ugh. Every note. So many

On a roll! I appreciate these videos a lot.
I think GT is possibly the best teacher with solid teaching method on TH-cam!
I hope folks will buy him a cup of coffee.
Thank's for another great one Guthrie. Never get tired of your focus on CAGED. It has really helped me out! Thank you brother.

I can't encourage everyone enough to buy Guthrie's TrueFire courses, just taking the time to learn one of his songs will blow the bloody doors off!!
