I bought Rick's bundle a little over a year ago. I learned more about playing guitar in that one year than I have the previous 25 years of playing. Of course, I had no teacher and was doing it all by ear. Rick is an amazing teacher.
Which bundle
No surprises there. He's excellent! He's been my teacher for the past several years that I've been subscribed to his channel and have learned so much from him.
@teflon7301 Beato Book, Ear Training, and the guitar quick lessons. Haven't checked the website in a while, so I don't know if he has the exact same bundle available or not.
Is it good for absolute beginners, too?
I’m watching Rick in half speed right now and it feels like I’m getting a private lesson and having a few drinks with Rick at the same time!
Came here to say something similar. . . .starting at 5:11 (half speed Rick) I was picturing a conversation with an old drunk uncle that I don't actually have. . .
DRUNK RICK 😂
That's actually happened to me also😆😆
Drunk Rick will be his 3rd TH-cam channel !
15 - 30 minutes every day is better than 6 hrs once a week,sage words of wisdom
Unfortunately, having terrible ADHD, doing anything for 15 minutes every day is impossible. 6 hours it is!
As a 50 year old beginner these lessons are awesome. My instructor has me working G major scales and now it makes sense.
Check out Guthrie Trapp, the best on TH-cam…..and Rick of course but different style.
Good for you.🎉
i'm 36 years old and never got past weedely weedely weedely weedely
So fed up of seeing ads pop up for hacks and cheat codes, there is no cheat code or hack. Just learn and practice. Thank you you inspire me. Rich
Here's a great Joe Pass tip: play a chord, then the scale, then the chord again. (ex: G chord - G scale - G chord) His idea is that it helps relate the sound of the scale to a chord instead of just simply running scales. It works really well the more complex the chord. When I started to implement that, I found a lot of chord shapes that "look" like a given scale shape and it really helped tie even more of the fingerboard together. And on a really funny note, Joe Pass said in a clinic once, "Don't learn scales. Learn tunes. Scales don't get the girls!". (I think scales are incredibly valuable to master. I think Joe was trying to say in a humorous way that the song is "King" and should always be the ultimate focus and technique only should be in service of that.) As always, this video is such a great glimpse into so much more of what music has to offer. Thank you Rick for all that you do to help all us guys and gals out to learn and grow!
Nice tip! Thank you for sharing.
@@chrisaldridge6793 You're welcome, glad to help!
Great tip and a Great way to learn Nice harmonies
@@mekkpro It's especially nice for modal explorations. (ex: Play an Am chord, then any of the minor modes to hear the differences. "F" vs. "F#" really stood out to me in relation to the Am chord when I first started doing that.)
Self taught of 15 years on and off. I've wanted to take lessons locally but thought I'd give this a shot. I've heard nothing but great things so I just purchased the bundle!
Rick, you are a teacher, you are gifted, TEACH!!! your greatest legacy is in teaching the up and coming musicians!!!! Keep it up! Love, Love, Love!!!!
That might be the best looking SG that I have ever seen. And your information is top-notch.
Thank you, Rick
I'm inspired just by seeing that guitar.
That guitar is BEAUTIFUL in looks and sound.
One big misconception is that you can learn/ master guitar in a few minutes, but the reality is that guitar is HARD, it’s not easy , but it’s very rewarding when you do learn.
It's not as hard as you think
@@DylanL69it is hard
Awesome lesson. The guitar is a hard instrument to craft. I'm terrible at scales and solos, but have learned to play ok guitar by playing with others.
@@mekkpro it's not that hard
Thanks for adding instructional videos back into the mix!
You just gave a Great instructional🎸👍🏽
Everyone should be Grateful for this video !
Thanks for doing this 🎸👍🏽
Practice never ends. That's one thing I've learned not only in music, but a whole host of other skills I wanted to learn and maintain over the years! Great video Rick!
Thanks Rick for another Lesson. 👍 I've missed your instructional videos. God Bless You!
I'm a beginner guitar player who plays drums. The way you're describing the finger patterns with the 1-3-1-3 stuff make sense to me now! I just purchased the bundle...I love both of your channels.
I love the teaching videos. Thank you for making more.
Thank you Rick! Keep on Rockin!
Paying close attention to just the half steps for about a week really helped me out. ie. the 7-1 and the 3-4. Also my 1 is always that major even if I'm playing it's relative minor the 6. May be backwards if I'm thinking that minor 6 as the 1 if I'm playing it like the root. Love the show man!
I heard you mention this before, the 5 positions of the modes. It has changed my playing ever since. I know the pentatonic scale and the 5 positions. So I thought about it and added the 2 notes back to the pentatonic positions, kind of the reverse of what you show here. I actually had to draw the fret board on a piece of paper and draw it out so I could get my head around it. When working it out I focused on the key of C as it doesn't have any sharps or flats. Had to make it as easy on my brain as I could lol. And like you said, I focused on the root note, instead of just running through the patterns, thinking more about where the scale begins. I thought of notes in terms of the scale degrees rather than the actual note. I started with the first 5 notes of the scales, running through the notes 1,2,3,4,5,5,4,3,2,1, then move to a different position on the neck 1,2,3,4,5,,5,4,3,2,1 then move ..etc. then change keys and run through them again. Then it got weird lol. I was running through the scales like this, and had an epiphany. I looked over at the kalimba (thumb piano) I had received as a gift. It came with a small music book which lays out the songs in simple melodies, using the degrees of the scale. for example, Amazing Grace is 14 646 654 21 14 646 568 68 64 654 21 14 646 54. I picked up the book and started playing the songs on the guitar, all over the neck, in any key. I was amazed really. I definitely couldn't do that before. The funny thing is I find these songs really easy to remember. I have a mind for numbers or something. There something about playing these simple melodies that really show the relationship between the different degrees of the scale. What makes these songs work type of thing.. IDK. Then I heard Rick say, play 2 notes per string when playing the scales. Opened up a whole new dimension. Like realizing you can go diagonally on a crossword puzzle. Still working on it.
Like Jimmy Bruno's Five Fingerings?
@newgunguy4176 I watched some of a Jimmy Bruno's video. Seems similar. Five positions. I think I was focusing on the first five notes of the scale when I was first practicing this because when the root (tonic) is on the B string, you have to move out of position down the high E string to finish the scale idk. But the important part for me was to start and finish on the root note and then move to the next root note. Engraining it into my brain. It took a while. And playing the "Klamba" music helped. It's also given me some insight on how to transpose keys. I've even taken music notation of O'Canada and transcribed into "Klamba" notation figuring out the numbers corresponding to each notes position or degree of the scale. I can't read music but I can sight read numbers pretty good :P If someone is trying to figure out the scale patterns at each position draw it out in the key of C. C major doesn't have any sharps or flats, so it only consists of the natural notes.
@idoob4720 If you start on the root note and finish on the root note, you're playing a scale. Bruno's fingerings are not scales. In Bruno's fingerings, you play notes OF the scale. Not the scale. You only play the notes of the scale that you're able to in that particular position of the neck. The lowest note of the C scale that's available on the third position of a six string guitar is the G note. On a seven string guitar, it would be the D note. Both notes belong to the C scale.
Edit ( i thought you wrote modes jnt "scale " adhd brain in action, my bad ) : unedited original response- Sorry if this breaks you but there are 7 modes, 1 for each note. Diatonic comprehension is the best method if you have a mind for numbers. If you know how to count to 12 then you can apply diatonic anywhere. But you need to know the 1 ( root ) everywhere without thinking.
@@MrDmadness Oh, a fellow ADHDer. The cool thing about modes is that once you know the scale, you know it's modes. I'm still working on all this sh1t. Can't find that "a-ha" moment.
Cheers Rick, awesome SG there. I've always found that the more you play out along with people the better you get and the easier it becomes to jam with other musicians
That distortion is really in the way of appreciating the notes and chord sounds. The arpeggios sound very like many of Bach's arpeggiated studies, eg, Prelude in C.
Thanks Rick for posting this videos my guitar playing has massively improved!
Thank you so much for this Rick!
Nice!!! I needed this
Love you for all you do Rick from Huntsville Alabama
I have not checked in for a while, this got my attention. Love the Beato book. Time for me to get back to playing.
Fabulous lesson Rick.
great teaching! thank you.
I am from Germany and playing mainly the electric bass for now 30 years, having learned it at local music school and private teacher later. But what Rick and some others (to be fair) is awesome and worth every cent! Great channel and contribution! Thanx❤️
Wohl wahr. Aber soviel Neues erzählt er hier ja eigentlich auch nicht. Ich schätze seine Interviews mehr.
Thanks for this!
Beautiful guitar.
More of these fretboard workouts please, a great help.
Thanks Rick love the guitar stuff the best 😊
Im just happy to see rick jammin out.. truely just enjoying playing. Dont forget people's, you're playing for fun... practice serioys, but let yourself noodle after for a bit.. music is in you, you just need to learn how to speak in music. :)
Love that blue sg!
My musician brain loves to visit your videos Mr. Beato! You always provide inspiration, and that is gold! 😁🌟🌼
Ok Rick. That was such an awesome lesson for where I am at with guitar. The Beato book lessons are going to be the focus from here to end of year. 😊
You're a great Rick, I'm a big fan of yours video's
Great way to practice!
You're my hero Rick!
34:40 Great advice Rick! Consistency. 10, 15 minutes a day. Love it. Now I need to Live it!
❤
Steve albini .. One of the most fascinating, clearcut logical minds of why he was doing what he was doing.. there is not enough, Steve Albini’s caring/curating about music and artists individual fingerprint
I wanna be taught by YOU! keep going!!
Rick I aspire to be even half the guitar player you are. The way u go n down in different positions, then in reverse, was like a revelation to me. Thank u for your teachings
Hey Rick. If you haven't checked out BBMs only studio album you should. It's the only album by the group consisting of Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce and Gary Moore. The album is called "Around the next dream" and the first song could easily be featured on "What makes this song great". Hope you check it out. It was a great Blues-Rock album that was overlooked when Grunge-Rock emeged in the 90s.
Very good album! What Cream would have sounded like in the 90s.
I love the Pelham blue SG. What a beautiful guitar.
My friends, HALF-SPEED especially @5:45
Also, great lesson!
Thank you for awesome lessons 💚💙
Glorious!!
GOOD, love learning.
..Also would love to see 'what makes this song great' video's again Rick. Love your channel👍.
Same thing with you and at least one other teacher out there. everything starts on the low string. I learned both "E" shaped and "A" shaped "bar chords" which means I am quite familiar with where the roots are on the A string too. This means that I can move an A scale shape (of whatever kind) up one string from the E string to the A string and the scale is only messed up a very little (like one note?) and I have a D scale. Going from farther up is less worth while because the G scale is only two frets down on the E string (still worth while over all but not as useful to a beginner). So really, learn all the scales at least with a root on the E string and the A string.... then extend them up and down the neck. Hey, I'm dyslexic maybe I just think wrong :)
Definitely want more guitar lessons!
What a georgeous guit-fiddle!!!
I thought it was an extended scale barritone ukulele :)
Thanks !!!
I love the everyday comment, opposed to 5 hours one day (Sports Coach with Education background here). I was a beginner for 23 years until Covid.
Very helpful 👍
Got the Beato Book a couple weeks ago...and wow...there's a lifetime of lessons and material in there. What a great resource.
Prof Rick! Thx
Lovely guitar!
This was amazing. I learned and played everything here at 2x speed on the first try no problem.
Hello, wow really nice Guitar, I love your interviews and in General all your video you plublished, thank you so much
What a beautiful sg. Im not a sg fan, but thats a good looking guitar.
Thank you! Great lesson
Rick - you jump all over the place in your lessons instead of just staying on a single, simple concept - then it becomes just like you are entertaining yourself instead of teaching. Love the channel...
Adhd at work there. Disect the info, Rick is filled with great info, hut I agree he bounces around a bunch.. my adhd can follow it, not all can ( respectfully intended)
True, Rick does jump around, but because he's also showing what he is talking about at the same time, I get so focused. Probably the ADHD is at play there! Lot's of information to process and have fun with. 😁😉🎶🎶🎶🎶
Rick made scales sound good the triad exercise especially
Please could you do a video showing us your guitars. I'd love to know how many you have. The SG looks beautiful.
I have purchased Ricks courses about 12 months ago and have to say I’m addicted no joke I can’t stop practicing every day for hrs sometimes from morning to night it’s like crack !!!!! I have become a music learning addict, it's all I think about. Learning has become so much fun and above all super rewarding. Can’t thank Rick enough for everything he is putting into world in regards to music.
Greetings. I'm curious if you have any suggestions, since it sounds like you're diving all over the place into these kind of music things. I don't really click with this style of presenting the fretboard and doing these scales like in such a boring way. Do know of any other teaching courses for electric lead and rhythm guitar that might perhaps be more stimulating; like perhaps, learning these scales by playing them to some other music or basic drum/bass jams?
@@robertcummlng791Unfortunately you gotta learn this stuff regardless. If you think it's dry, the guitar might not be the instrument for you. I learned this stuff years ago and loved every minute of it every step of the way. And I'm not being a wise ass here or anything like that. Learning this stuff and it clicking is such a great feeling and it actually opens doors in your mind that will lead you to discover more things on your own. So if you truly want to learn the guitar, you gotta do this stuff.
@@robertcummlng791what Rick is showing is non negotiable. In order to truly learn the fretboard you have to play your scales and arpeggios daily. Depending on the person maybe for a couple years. That is the cost you must pay. You don't need to do it for hours, 15 minutes at the beginning of each practice should be enough. If it's so boring that you won't do it the guitar might not be for you
@@Kevinschart Thank you! And when done, practice again. Oh and don't forget to practice. lol seriously there's just no substitute. I didn't begin advancing until I started to look at it as a lifestyle. /cheers
@@robertcummlng791 while I agree with others who say it's non-negotiable, need to practice scales and arpeggios... I got to an "intermediate"ish level of guitar playing when younger, but now trying to actually get good and consistent. So yes, starting practicing daily (even if only 5 minutes doing a scale, not for the "joy" of it - though micro-learning is/becomes fun. But I've also decided, once I've practiced the scales in this video enough (I've not watched it all yet, "hopefully" I don't say something Rick suggests 😅), I will mess around with "improvising" along to a song, where I know the chord progression, and instead of knowing the whole song is in the key of G so sticking to that scale for the whole chord progression, changing the scale to match each chord. To make it more fun and musical. Will let you know how it goes 😉
But also, yes, I know I do need to do put it the ground work and play to a metronome and build consistency first (consistency of playing in time, without mistakes, and also just showing up every day)
Rick is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced guitar teachers and musicians on TH-cam, for sure. I am just an amateur who first played classical guitar and then, later in life, jazz. But I had some good teaching along the way and have taken jazz lessons for years with a talented player and Berkeley College grad named Paul Kinnear. He didn’t teach me any patterns at all, even though my familiarity with upper positions lagged behind the lower positions when we started. He just had me learn the notes, one by one and position by position. Play in one position for a month, if need be. In Rick’s video, he says a couple times that he has ultimately just learned the notes and knows where they are. Maybe doing this directly without patterns takes longer but - combined with some chord and modal theory and years of listening - I can play music more fluently than some of my experienced pattern-heavy rock guitarist friends. For me, when I do play patterns, my solos sound like patterns to me. When I play notes, I think I listen better and thus play more melodically. That said, Rick knows this stuff 100 times better than I ever will!
I like the new background look Rick.
When playing this at half speed to figure it out, I can't get past rick sounding like he's trying to teach me drunk off his ass 🤣🤣 I keep laughing and screwing it up. In all seriousness, great video, Rick. It's very helpful
good lesson
EUREKA! The light just came on while watching this video. Thank you Rick! I am the same age as you and have played guitar since a teen. Playing in garage and bar bands for a time, for fun and then just for my own pleasure when I could find time. I have always struggled with understanding scales for improvising, trying to memorize endless postitons for endless scales and it was hopeless. Outside i memorising a song's solo note for note, I am trash at coming up with anything because I don't know where to play. BUT THE LIGHT JUST CAME ON AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. Screw patterns etc. the scale..take GMajor..G, A, B, D, E. thats all I need! I know were the notes are after all this time. I can suddenly..improvise. I know where I can play. It's so simple but all this time it seemed so damn hard to get my mind around. When I saw you moving up and down and saying play the notes, that's what I needed to see and hear 40 years ago! Thank you so so so much. Your theory presentations are amazing, you do such a service for all musicians. Never doubt how much you help all of us.
Ooo love the guitar
23:51 -- OOOOHHHHHHH!!!! I get it now!!! You're just arpeggiating the triad of each chord in the key!!! G Maj, F# Dim, Em, D Maj, C Maj, Bm, Am, G Maj... Never would've seen that if you hadn't stopped and did that "I'm just playing the same shape..." bit, and showing us the chords going down the neck. It's like something "clicked" in my head when you did that...
Thank you rickkkkkkkkk
I cannot play any instrument or hold a tune. But I LOVE, need, escape, restore through music. I love to discover & learn. Thankyou Rick you are a health, life invigorating essential supplement.
Singing bowls! 😊
The cymbal or cowbell! 😃
@kirstinalphabet796 I love singing bowls🙏 And just today have enjoyed discovering @supergongspa on TH-cam. Happy Saturday Kirstin.
@JS45678 a happy cow with a bell is a Joyous thing.
@@philmclean2323 😂
Happy Saturday!
That is a beautiful SG Rick 😮
Man, you have the nicest guitars😊
Oy Vey! I love you!!
Rick you sound like you’ve had a few at 0.5 speed and totally hammered at 0.25.
Check out the old Joe Walsh instructional VHS from back in the day. Pretty sure he was truly hammered through out!
Great lesson. Thx. I see you took that SG home after your visit to CME!
Hey Rick can you give some hints on how to develop how to improve ones picking skills to get quicker and cleaner ?
Practice SLOWLY and PERFECTLY. Smooth = fast. And being fast means nothing if it sounds bad and is sloppy.
Just remember, when you practice fast and bad you learn how to play fast and bad.
Slow precision will make you much faster, and will allow you to notice errors in technique and fix them.
:)
beautiful sg
You should have grabbed an interview years ago. RIP legend. Best drum recorder of all time…
Rick, I have never been a fan of SG’s until I see yours! This could be an expensive situation.
Appreciate the lesson, diagrams would be very helpful.
Rick, I love your videos! I have to say though, watching this at 0.5 speed, I had to just laugh 😂🤣😂🤣
Your voice was not only at half speed, but sounded like you spent the evening shutting down the local pub with a lot of Single Malt or Black & Tans before coming home to shoot this video. Very amusing 😊 Sláinte!
That's a badass guitar.
Great video and love rhe speed triads
Why teach in G major yes the dots and
the guitar is tuned as open strings that make a G major pentatonic scale Cheers Dominic
Clear as mud!
I learned this back in the day from a book called The Complete Guitarist. It's really the only thing i got out of that book even though there were tons of things in there
My Brother Inlaw's band just recorded at Steve Albini's studio. Damn.
Mark E Smith said the one thing a musician should learn to be a good musician is discipline!
Rick, your bundle is selling for $99 on the website. I just purchased but thought you should know. Looking forward to the course. I'm 'starting again' for the 3rd time. Hope it sticks this time! (53 and not getting any younger...)
Best guitar teacher on TH-cam
That’s it I’m impressed.
thank you for acknowledging Steve 😢
That guitar is really cool
