This video is next level. I'm not great at guitar, but I understand this level of music theory enough and you make the hard parts seem easy. Thanks for including tabs too!
I really appreciate these lessons you make. The only thing that sucks about guitar is the only thing non guitarist think is impressive is playing fast or shredding. I started learning legato to get my speed up but realized it’s more important to learn the fundamentals first and it doesn’t matter what people think.
The most important things in playing guitar are: 1. Doing whatever is fun, fulfilling, or enjoyable to you. 2. Practice consistently. 3. Be open to trying and learning new things.
Thats non sense, I've been playing guitar just about 20 years now and i still dont know how to "shred." And for half those years i pretty much only knew power chords lol. But i played many shows with different bands, or played an acoustic at parties or on the beach, or by a camp fire, and people have always enjoyed it. Shredding only seems to impress beginner guitarists, and non guitarists who like metal lol. Simple chords work fine for the majority of people, and if you learn to sing AND play, people are even more impressed with you. Trust me, singing over some basic chords will almost always impress people versus just random shredding
Came to the comments to say the same thing, it sounds like “how does it feel” by citizen mixed with “blank” by glare. It was bothering me for a awhile cause I was like “I know this song he claims to have made up” and went through all my playlist to figure out what it was that I was thinking of 😂
I hear some Tanya Donnelly and Belly in some of those chords and melodies. Here I am trying to learn 30s and 40s blues and saw this and now I'm wanting to play this as modern blues. 🙂
There Is No Such Things as Black Orchids by Lilys, from the album In the presence of nothing is literally the beginning of the video, it's the shoegazest shoegaze song of shoegaze time
Woah, it's cool 'cause this actually reminds me a lot of like, 90's-2000's emo pop stuff like Get Up Kids and Texas is the Reason. Maj7 with distortion rules!!!
1. Acquire any offset bodied guitar. Preferably a Chinese jazz master 2. Acquire as many cheap pedals you can afford. 3. Hook up all the pedals at once so the signal is totally washed out. 4. Play any chord
You should have a fuzz and a reverb pedal handy (most common effects for this genre) so you can really hit home how these chords create the desired sound for the style.
I could never progress in guitar because I couldn’t grasp the logic behind the NAMES of the chords. Esus2? What?! The E note sustained twice? Gmaj7? What 7? The seventh fret?
corrections: to get started with this type of music you're going to need a girl friend. ok now you're gonna want to lose that girlfriend in a super sad way like she leaves you for your best friend or like maybe she fell into the darkness. ok great. now you've got it.
I somehow know and use several of these chords but I don’t know what they’re called I kind of just make random chord shapes and if they sound good I remember to use them later.

These chords whirr very helpful!
wwww
yeah i can slowly dive into that particular sound now ;)
@@nicolasriveros943 super bright sound like a glare yk
I love that first maj7 shape, I found it in the bassline for Dramamine and its a shameful go to at this point.
its the shape i make every time i pick up a guitar
@@ThatFilmisGnarly same but im emo
I also heard Blame It On the Tetons in the Pairing Chords section. Awesome video!
If you steal chords and patterns, its not stealing. That's just called "learning stuff".
i found it in dramamine too!
I’m too new to really understand this stuff. But you do an awesome job explaining it! I’m gunna keep at it 🙌🏻
same lol

that sucks... if you play guitar to impress non-guitarists. or anyone. that's a bad reason to play
shredding has limited applications and most people are majorly turned off by it

This sounds very similar to midwestern emo
Oof. I heard some self-titled Citizen vibes on the example. "How Does it Feel?" namely. Nice tutorial.

@@zandercapps131 Hell yeah good ear. I'll have to check out glare, too.
YESSS DUDEEE YESSSSS THANK YOU
This video made me pick up the guitar for the first time in a while. Thanks
I hear some Tanya Donnelly and Belly in some of those chords and melodies. Here I am trying to learn 30s and 40s blues and saw this and now I'm wanting to play this as modern blues. 🙂
i use this maj7 shape all the time, the 1-3-7 one is also good and uses the same low strings
Works great on bass as well!
whagt is 7 representing
@@Midnight_Gust The 7th note of the major scale you play in. So for example when talking about the G major scale, the 7 would be F#.
@@QuickCygan oh so if we use 1-3-7 pattern in an A major scale it would be a major 7 or somthing
@@Midnight_Gustyes well the 7th note of the major scale of the root note
WOOOOO... What a beautiful progression!
When I think "shoegaze", I don't think "2010's".
Who are some 2010's shoegaze bands?
There Is No Such Things as Black Orchids by Lilys, from the album In the presence of nothing is literally the beginning of the video, it's the shoegazest shoegaze song of shoegaze time
Great song
Woah, it's cool 'cause this actually reminds me a lot of like, 90's-2000's emo pop stuff like Get Up Kids and Texas is the Reason. Maj7 with distortion rules!!!
This was the most helpful shit
Can you do a similar video for early 90s shoegaze?
This is SO coooool ! thank youuu
I’ve been in a rut and this was super inspirational. I’m gonna write some riffs now 🔥.
Those progressions remind of Turnover's Magnolia album
Hey! Great video!
I’m practicing and coming up with some fun riffs/progressions myself!!! 🙌🏼🤙🏼😀
thank you thank you thank you
That Gmaj7 and Esus are soooo deftones
The goat
That's a weird looking Jazzmaster. ;)
Awesome lesson! I often pick 1-3-7 chord shape when writing progressions. However, I don't know many bands that use them. :(
Shoegaze's so pretty cool song
Greatings from Brazil. 🤚
Just what I needed. Now some lead shapes/ transitional licks & riffs for this style?
Amazing video Trevor, keep doing your thing, I appreciate your efforts to help us learn guitar/shoegaze.
this has strong _school really sucked today (as always) and my parents are soo stupid_ vibes and I love it
I love the jazzmaster click bait! You know your audience very well!
Came here to learn that 2010 shoegaze is my whole musical identity on electric guitar, apparently?
1. Acquire any offset bodied guitar. Preferably a Chinese jazz master
2. Acquire as many cheap pedals you can afford.
3. Hook up all the pedals at once so the signal is totally washed out.
4. Play any chord
You should have a fuzz and a reverb pedal handy (most common effects for this genre) so you can really hit home how these chords create the desired sound for the style.
and run the reverb then the fuzz in the signal chain
Reverse reverb ftw.
Sounds a lot like Mid-west Emo without any effects.
Exactly the video I wad looking for. But what kind of effects are on? Can anyone help me out?
1:20, tons of inverted power chords too.
You literally must be psychic just 3 days ago I was wanting to learn more shoegaze
Yes I also still love Whirr even though..
huh? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? wtf?
You're a gem, dude. 🤗😁👍🏻
Please never stop! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Why does my chord not sound like this what the fuck
You do a great job explaining chord structure in building, especially around @2:00! Thanks!
These are early 2000s posthardcore/screamo chords
is there a fingering for a minor chord version of the cmaj7 and gmaj7 chords you used in this video ?
Maj7 chords saved my life
What are some good 2010s shoegaze bands?
Trevor, what's the name of your song at the end (outro)?
blud really think he alcest ❓❗⁉
0:10 souds like death before glory
Sounds like gaslight anthem😅. Ah the high school memories
I could never progress in guitar because I couldn’t grasp the logic behind the NAMES of the chords. Esus2? What?! The E note sustained twice? Gmaj7? What 7? The seventh fret?
Shoegazing 2010? I think your like 20 years out at least in England. I think of bands like Ride, Chapterhouse. Almost the precursors to britpop
Funny how the 2010s suddenly got associated with shoegaze
The example sounds very similar to How Does It Feel from Citizen. I fucking loved it!
Is that really Gmaj7? not G7?
have you ever heard of hail the sun?
Hi, great Video, thanks! Which AMP Settings you set to get this sound?
Are you using pedals?
corrections: to get started with this type of music you're going to need a girl friend. ok now you're gonna want to lose that girlfriend in a super sad way like she leaves you for your best friend or like maybe she fell into the darkness. ok great. now you've got it.
His example sounds just like citizens “how does it feel” mixed with glares “blank” sounds so awesome I’m glad I found this tutorial
If you just say "7" it's presumed you mean dominant 7 which is different from a major 7.
Back to learning how to play a chord I go, wish me luck
what. welp you do need to kinda slow down as i cant really keep up with every thing your saying and i get lost and lose track really easy
are you the guy from Daphne’s loves derby?
Amazing video! Very helpful, thank you so much
The chords have been around forever,it’s the sounds
10 Years - Slowly Falling Awake sounds just like what you playing by the end of the video. Also a bit of Mein by Deftones.
This is perfect, I was listening to it and I got too excited XDDD "WHAT IS THAT MELODY???"
I am embarrassed that you have summed up the extent of my guitar playing in one video. haha. Great work!
fucking legend. Not all heroes wear capes 🐐
Bro just casually made me understand more about music theory than years of school/college
Saying 2010s shoe gaze makes me feel old
Bruh why the Jazzmaster clickbait?
The signal chain would be very interesting. The sound is awesome
Getting Movements and Citizen vibes from this.
Trevor is goated fr
That first progression had instant Mew vibes... very nice.
I somehow know and use several of these chords but I don’t know what they’re called I kind of just make random chord shapes and if they sound good I remember to use them later.
I love me a tutorial that wastes no time and gets right into it
Esus2 🤤🤤🤤
Dude this is incredible… definitely gonna jam out for hours practicing these techniques
Wow I love these explanation videos!!! So helpful!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Wow dude, this is the single most impactful tutorial I’ve ever watched. It never occurred to me to keep the shape the same and it will work.
wrote a new song from these shapes! thanks man.
I always called that shape a 1,5,9 or a 9 😅. makes more sense as sus2. 🤓
What amp do you use? Great clean tone!
My man these sounds are from 2002-2008 emo.
Distort it and they become shoegaze
I dont find any of his videos talking about how to get the sound
cant shoegaze without that fuzzed out reverb and a jaguar or jazzmaster for the trem
What were some good 2010 shoegaze albums, besides the old bands coming back (MBV, Slowdive)?
Title Fight- Hyperview
Dead Mellotron, Ninth Paradise, Burrrn, some of Deerhunter's catalog
The Yours also have a great 2012 release
aprecio mucho lo muy minucioso que es me encanto
2010's? Bro this stuff is from the 90s.
try this on drop tunning and you get deftones lol
Пасош
Nice
Awesome video. This sound reminds me of Alcest and early White Ward.
I think you progression sounded really great xD
i love moody music
woah you look so different without your glasses 😳
Oh man I need to play these chords ASAP
