    These “you’ve learned CAGED, now what” lessons are so great. Nice work.

    Life is busy as, but I always make sure the first thing I do on a Saturday morning is get my guitar out and I love that it always coincides with a new vid from you. Love what you do Eric!

    I love with the g chord shape how you said to choose a side. What an excellent tip.

    This was an absolutely great lesson Eric. I loved it from end to end. I love your personable style. I've been really focusing on CAGED and Triads for the last year or so. This really great.

    After taking your courses on TrueFire, I truly enjoy the guitar again. I understand it so much better than I ever did before.

  • @jamesalley7387
    @jamesalley7387 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +41

    This is exactly what I’ve been doing, so this lesson is a great reassurance. The crazy, perhaps intimidating to some, thing about all of this is that it puts you on a long path, years of work. It’s a great example of how one tidbit of information can be enough to fuel months or even years of guitar development.

  • @karlschmied6218

    Thanks Eric! Your lessons are outstanding because you are one of the few who offer solutions to the central problem of how to learn to play effortlessly (without "thinking" or calculating).

  • @michaelboothpalmer7516
    @michaelboothpalmer7516 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Eric is most certainly the most intuitive and simplistic guitar teacher out there. Especially if you are having trouble pulling all the pieces of theory and technique you know together. Take his advice and "slow down you move to fast". It is all there under your fingers.

  • @BackstageMusicChannel
    @BackstageMusicChannel 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Dude, thank you....great vid. I love practicing by finding songs that 'require' a capo and playing without one. This lesson just locked everything in for me. I'm a new fan and will be spending some time on other vids of yours. Cheers 🎸👈

  • @KnownBeing
    @KnownBeing 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Another great Haugenizing. We met for a lesson last week, and this video is well -timed for me as your encouraged me to continue working on CAGED.

  • @samquezada8453
    @samquezada8453 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanska lot Eric for your lessons! Ive been learning guitar for like 15 years, and trying to get scales, arpegios, triads, etc. all separate from one another and here you come with this simple explanation and suddenly mi interest in guitar is high again

  • @vinnyvortex8076
    @vinnyvortex8076 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I've just started getting my head around the caged system recently and your video really opened things up for me. I like the idea of jamming in different areas of the fret board with the same chord progressions to get the different tones and riffs. Thanks man.

  • @peterlenardon46
    @peterlenardon46 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I’ll chime in with the others and say how much your CAGED course helped me, but I still find myself noodling on it more than I would like. This is a better use of time to explore with the songs I know.

  • @makeitcount179
    @makeitcount179 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks Eric. Your explanation in colloquial prose is Relatable. And just moving and thinking and showing...opens up a number of opportunities to fit our style. That's gold. The pace you set, combined with your talk and chord box inclusions...very good.
    Your instruction is a good good find. Gotta get better in a little while.

  • @hunterhill8921
    @hunterhill8921 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ive never completely grasped the CAGED system until now. Ive been playing for over a decade but things kind of got sidelined when I went to college on classical double bass. This is a fantastic toutorial that Im going to be coming back to again and again because you just explain it in a way that is simple enough for me to understand without needing to ask you a question personally (since its a video and not a physical lesson). Very well done and thank you sir.

    This lesson and your way of explaining, unlocked something in my head , which I haven’t had for years watching online lessons. So grateful for your incredible channel. Cheers from Berlin 🎸

    @Oklatucky_Guitarman 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Eric, this was another brilliant lesson. I know I always feel better if I can confidently play the melody on the guitar as it usually unlocks a lot of stuff when I continue to poke at it. 😊

    The statement at 5:05 to 5:15 is the truth! I have gone down this road a few years and now feel confident I am on the right path and my ear is being trained in the process. Isolated knowledge has limited use. Caged is the foundation!

  • @NickJardine
    @NickJardine 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I find a good way to decide chord shapes is pick the spot on the neck you want to be in, find the root note and use this cheat sheet for the corresponding shape:
    C - roots on b and a
    A - roots on a and g
    G - roots on e’s & g
    E - roots on e’s & d
    D - roots on d & b

  • @davidhallowell3457
    @davidhallowell3457 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Great points. As you mentioned, each caged shape contains two and three string arpeggios and triads…and *that* shows you how the b string tuning complicates the guitar…ie the same triad will have multiple shapes as it moves across the neck. By seeing those variations as little c shapes, g shapes, d shapes, etc you have a powerful and familiar catalogue. Said another way, caged is less about playing whole chords up and down the neck, and much more about seeing the mini caged shapes connecting in few-string clusters nearby across the neck.

    Great video. That tone is fantastic too! I see that I need to slow down and work on some alternative positions with the caged system, and break those down into 3 string chunks. It takes time, but it's all there. Thanks for your consistently inspiring content.

    I am one of those late in life guitar learners. Needless to say, I have struggled in a lot of ways. After watching one of EH's videos and it making sense, I started the Truefire caged course. It wasn't what I expected. CAGED? Not just about the chord shapes. Who knew? I am 5 lessons in rn. I feel like I made a significant breakthrough just from those 5. It may be the way it's all presented idk. I think the way context is established is key. I practiced what I learned from the videos and for the first time I felt like it was actually going to happen, being a guitar player, I mean. I know that sounds like an ad. It ain't. Thanks EH. Looking forward to more.

    Thank you! What a great lesson, lands perfectly where I'm at. I've long been aware of the connection of CAGED with triads and pentatonics, but this helps so much with that challenge of putting it all into action.
    (And what a great song choice! Stevie's first hit, I believe.)

    I've started learning the caged system last month, after years of mucking around with the guitar and getting nowhere, and it's already pushed my playing level up. It takes time, can be hard on the hand initially, and it felt a bit like re-starting playing guitar, but every lesson just opens a new aspect to the fret board.
