Thinking about exercises that really changed how I see things and play the guitar, this might be top of the list - an old exercise from @HoraceBray that I think he may have called the Golden Warmup or something?
The preset is "Dual Jazz Tone"

I had a hard time getting this under my fingers until I visualized each arpeggio as three 5th's stacked a 2nd apart. In case that helps anyone else. Watch out for the tritones! There are 3 of them in the ii, IV, and vii° chords. Awesome lesson, John. Thank you!
Oh my goodness, this is superb. I just picked up my guitar at the 5 min marker and just those first 6 notes of the arpeggio that you show have had me inspired and practicing for the last 2 hours! This is going to give me months of material to practice. Thank you so much.
I never comment on videos but this was huge in giving me more options for lead playing. Probably the most useful guitar video I’ve seen in years
What a great lesson! Thank you!
Absolutely Brilliant Lesson John.

Great approach on good old scales and arpeggios!

Thank you for sharing that will help me.
Wow. This is gold. Between this and the moving chords you have really helped an ol road dog out
Insane concept brother. I'm practicing it right now. Thank you!
They all sound great with your playing 🫡
Great lesson!

Every now and then a video really inspires me to play…….this was definitely one of them 👌🏻
That was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard!
Way cool John! Thanks!
I love your channel and your playing, really top quality. Your insights into various things are great fantastic.
That’s sick dude. Super helpful
Great lesson John. Subscribed.
Wow. This opened up a lot of new ideas for my playing. Such a refreshing way to approach arpeggios. Thanks!
That intro solo was a vibe. Incredible playing!
Thank you John 💥
This was a fun and helpful visualization exercise. Thank you for your excellent tutelage! Cheers, Sir!
Beautiful!
That opening piece was super nice 🙂
Nice, look fwd to putting this in the routine 🤙🏽
Thanks for this, very informative and inspirational. Love your chord voicing's as well, great channel thanks for sharing.
first video in a while (personally speaking) on youtube that is defo a game changer for me; thank you so much
I’ve been following your videos for years for the gear stuff. Yet, this is by far my favorite video that I’ve seen from you. So valuable!! Thanks
Amazing Tone, great video. I really like it. I will practice that for sure.
it's a gold stuff dude to learn..... it literally gave me a different aspect and now i'm able to generate some new melodies also..
Lovely tone, sir.
This is really awesome.
this got me to brush up on my theory, haven't quite integrated this into my playing yet but its given me some incentive. cheers 👍🏼
Beautiful harmonic content from a man in a dressing gown and joggers, your my hero John! Honestly man I've gotten so much out of your stuff since you started posting to youtube. Thank you.
Hands down one of the best lessons I've ever found on UTube. Excellent excellent . Thanks! Subscribed!
This has given me quite the work out, it’s been a week or 2 and I finally got the whole thing just need to practice.
Thanks! Stuff like this keeps real music alive.
I really hope this stuff is useful for a few folks - thanks so much for your generosity and checking out the video!!!
Fantastic, John! Your scale lessons have been transformative to me. I've been focusing on mostly pentatonic patterns, but I'm looking forward to learning this major scale exercise. Thanks again for all the great content!
Beautiful arpeggios, Jonathan.
John Nathan wow I didn't realize that's Johnathan.
Excellent Study my friend! Just brilliant! I have always wondered how to get out of my plain jane scale rut! Thank you so much!
Lovely tone and playing John! Really enjoying your videos!
I came for a review of a Sire S7 a couple years back, stayed for the music. John creates new backing tracks and improvs every single day for his intros. If just for listening to them alone I watch his videos every morning. John's a big fan of your playing as well, as he mentions often throughout his back catalog.
Wow, this excercise is amazing, thank you🙌🏻
Omg I’m a bass player what a lesson I’m playing my appregios like this from now own it gives you a more melodic approach when soling over the chord tones superb lesson thanks
I am just learning guitar. This is very cool thing to learn. I will put sometimes learning it. Thanks a lot.
I love that you taught the concept rather than a certain lick. I’ve organically seen these patterns and would get confused, but your explanation of something you figured out helped me fill in the holes of my misunderstandings. Thanks!
Thanks for this, and for the discount code.🙏🏽😊
Thank You !
Beautiful dude! I'm gunna take this to church! 👍🏻
Brilliant!
Coming up with more open voicings of arpeggios is a super great concept. Thanks. I've got my "normal" voicings down fairly well and they can definitely sound a bit trite. Also, adding interesting scale notes such as 4th or 6th is super interesting. And of course it makes sense to add the Maj7 over a Maj7 chord, or the dominant 7th over a dominant chord.
Wow…I’m blown away by this
Just discovered your channel and subbed. Love your playing and this lesson gives a glimpse into what is underpinning your style. I would describe it like a kaleidoscope of phrases that merge, evolve, and flow from idea to idea. Very cool. Looking forward to trying these.
MesMeRiZinG and HyPnOtIZINg, all at the Same time. Amazing. kaleidoscope all the pretty colors.
Very arpeggiated EJ style. I like the sound.
The intro is beautiful John
What I love about this is it’s arpeggios but not arpeggios. You don’t have to really worry about the “chord” anymore so much as keeping a motif harmonious with the key you’re in. I rarely play straight arpeggios but I could definitely use this in my playing.
Very very good!
Very Methenyesque...
Very relaxing to listen to... i'll try it for sure
Very beautiful John
Dude you should be teaching Truefire lessons, this is so good, I want to learn this.
that's a beautiful guitar!
Serious AND fun!
Thank you
Cool stuff. Never thought I would get a great lesson from a guy in a snuggie.
I've always hated "Shredding". But when you play fast, all the lines have huge emotion. Like a well bent note with great vibrato. I know! It's like your lines are a flowing river to a destination that only you know till we get there with you. I don't have enough words. I'll just say you are very appreciated.
Not shred
Shred is mindless this isn't
@@bobravenscraft5376 I agree, totally, I think you misunderstand me.
Amazing lesson! And amazing guitar too👌🏻…
Hi John. I know you have some reservations about the Les Paul in this video. You made valid points about it but I must say as a listener and fan of your channel, I think it sounds awesome!. Truly an amazing sounding guitar! Thanks for the videos mate. All the best.
Really cool concept and what a great tone too. I noticed something when trying to play along a bit in that it almost feels like part of that beautiful sound is how the notes overlay. Like I'm playing single notes, but yours sound like you holding down the notes. I think that's the reverb doing that, and I never really use reverb so that's a bit of a revelation to me. Thanks.
Maybe a bloom reverb 🤔
These kinda sound like drop-2 or drop-3 voicings/arpeggios. Indeed they always sound fresh.
Outstanding lesson aside - what a lovely guitar tone.
magnificent !
I like it. It's right at the edge of substitution. Drop the 7 to 6 and it's technically the chord a 3rd below. Inversions!
great playing on the Epi
WOW 😮 bro !!! Stunning lesson !!! I feel blessed that I found your amazing channel . Breathing life into an old heavy metal head . Im a massive fan . Thank you
What do you do with this ?
@@Steve-si8hx for me its opened a different way of visualizing the neck . Its completely different to anything that I had in my arsenal per say. And the fact that is sweepable also is really cool or at least for me it is since I'm reasonably decent at sweeping. Also working on how each position sounds against different chords of the scale. So for me it was a great lesson 🙂
Superb.
a great great thanks
I thought this was a clickbait title and, after starting to digest this, I am seeing a transformation taking place. You weren't jokin', this is great and can be looked at so many different ways....
EXCELLENT.
Hi John, thanks for making this video. It's a really great exercise, I've been working on it for a couple of days now to get it under my fingers. I like the challenge to kind of remember the interval of each high note from the previous shape and then have to think of the next note in the scale.
Do you also do something similar with other scales too? Seems like an endless supply of ideas to choose from and definitely not the typical guitar type shapes that I'm used to.
Damn, so smooth. Some elegant licks mate. If only it were as easy to do as you make it look.
