Sean, these videos of yours are terrific! Very useful information without a lot of yakkity-yak and nonsense. You manage to be humorous without reducing it all to a comedy routine. I find you very approachable. Great job! Keep it up.
Yes! More like this please Sean! Really cool. Open chords are clearly our enemy and these videos give confidence as to how to move around the neck with moveable options that add a lot of vibe. Really cool, keep this up please, good work, thanks!
Sean...I am sure that its pretty hard to keep coming up with fresh lessons all the time. This is an excellent idea. I probably won't do it the same way, but the idea of working these type of chord viocings into a practice routine is an excellent idea. Thanks so much...
I absolutely love this lesson. My chords are normally pretty vanilla, although I love jazz and blues I just haven't got to grips with these extensions but Imma work on this. Please do do more like this. Nice work.
Please do that video about the arpeggios you mention at the end jajaj. These are the kind of things that will help me to improve for the next year :). Great video my bro, always helping me to learn something new.
I'd say the most important chords for any intermediate player to know are power chords, Sus chords in the open position and as barre chords, Dominant 7th chords and some major and minor 7th chords (also dominant 9th and 11th if you are into blues since these are pretty much essential). Its pretty exciting at the intermediate level actually (and probably "level" that people are in the longest when playing and learning guitar) since this is a the point most players start to really expand their vocabulary and music theory so learning new types of chords how they work and voicings is a lot of fun (at least it was for me and still is actually i stumble across new voicings and weird chords all the time).
@@dong4176 A LOT of songs use them especially more modern blues stuff like Stevie Ray Vaughn and Joe Bonamassa you see 9th and 11th dominant chords a whole lot, also quite a few old school blues songs use 9th chords too, they have a more funky or jazzy sound to my ear
I haven’t actually played guitar for a while but I played it yesterday,when I got a music theory book for Christmas, and I used the book to look how to play the chords. It only showed the chord diagrams,but didn’t go into detail on how to actually play. So I have a little trouble making the “barre” finger thing... (my hands are small so that’s why). But I was able to somewhat figure it out. Still painful though haha. You’re helping a lot with the videos though ;)
Great video! I have been looking for a video that has some more jazzy chord voicings than the plain old major and minor. I love your humor in your videos too! You also look like if Brandon Flowers played street ball
In the guitar shop today a mum and son came in, he broke a string on his xmas guitar and they asked to be shown how to restring, anyways turns out the boy wants to play like Hendrix, there was only one thing i could do, recommend the master of hendrix riffs, Sean Daniel himself! Also recommended Stitch's neverlost, hopefully you'll both have a new sub soon :)
No worries! It's the least I can do considering the amount of music knowledge you put out for free, since discovering yours and Stitch's channels my playing has improved considerably so thank you! :)
Good lesson on remembering the whole whole half whole whole whole half and major minor minor major major minor diminished. I need to practice remembering this more.
Pleeeeease do a video on which chord fall into which scales and arpeggios!! I can’t seem to find a decent video or resource that goes over it. Obviously caged, but I need more haha
Some wondering how this is useful. Really the point of this for me is that it shows the importance of learning your intervals, so that you can create any chord quickly anywhere on the fretboard. In this case, he is showing where the intervals are from a root note on the sixth string. So you know that one fret down on the fourth string will always be your sixth. That the same fret on the third string is your minor third (or minor 10th), etc. Once you have all those intervals squared away, you can quickly build any chord you want. Now I'm going to try the same exercise with the fifth string! (Maybe he mentions that at the end of the video. Haven't gotten there yet.)
I don’t know what you do or how you do it, but I’m actually enjoying learning these. Exploring these type of chord constructions is spooky to me as I’m still an uneducated beginner, but this is something i can follow better than the Joe Pass books, and I desperately want to learn to be a jazz player, and you are possibly my favorite teacher. Thank you so much.
I love how your pace moves so much faster than my brain can absorb. Cinematography is pretty cool though. Oh, and that guitar! Can’t wait for the giveaway.
Hey Sean good idea about doing an arpeggio video with these more "complicated" chords. Did you ever get around to doing one? It's something I personally would very much appreciate.
2019 is the year of the F. F this, F that. haha. Now that my joke is over, this is really good stuff to know. Different chord voicings make playing fun and interesting! Thanks Sean.
Not that I can do anything like that but that was a great lesson & sounded real "Jazzy" to me. BTW, if you thought that you knew about Dinosaurs, think again. Pick up Steve Brusatte's book "The Rise & Fall Of The Dinosaurs: A New History Of A Lost World". Great read & you will be surprised at what you will learn & never knew about those creatures! So, put down that guitar for a moment & read that book....
Love the idea of the key of F being the key of 2019, its always nice to brush up on stuff thats hard. Key of F seems to be the most feared key out there LOL.
I expected a vid in which I (intermediate to upper intermediate-ish) would already know everything but it turned out to include really useful tips for my level. I'm now on the way to effectively faking jazz guitar very soon. This video should propel this channel to 200k subs easily
Hey sean thanks for the great video as always, I'm still confused on how to use arpeggios in my playing, what would you recommend is a good place to start incorporating them into my playing, thanks!
Well I set the main camera (sony a7s) to be fixed on me and then a second camera (sony rx100V) that's a close up of the fretboard. Then I switch between them in Final Cut.
Could you do this same lesson with chords rooted on the A string too? Us filthy plebs who are just moving into jazz guitar would much appreciate being able to know those voicing on the E and the A since we only memorized those two whilst becoming salty blues players :P very helpful lesson, looking forward to the next one!
Hey just noticed in around 0:42 you played the g note and there was a buzz sound to it, is that from the amp? Just asking because the amp I have right now does the same when its turned up louder when I play a low A note. I'm kinda new and still messing around using amps so I was wondering if this was a normal thing, or maybe what's happening in the video is something else entirely I dont know lol. Love your videos man, thanks.
For your next answering questions video.....I got a box drum for christmas, if you have one, what are some fun drills to learn to play it a little better as a guitarist, merry late christmas btw and depending on when you see this , happy new years
@@seandaniel23 really? That kinda suprises me!! It ranges in price from $60-$200. They have them at both churches that I play for so I often will play them after going over music with the group but before church starts
Sean, is guitar teaching your primary gig? I fell in love with the instrument pretty late (25, 6 months ago) and honestly bro I feel like I’d be making a mistake if I didn’t pursue it as a career. I’m extremely passionate about playing and about music theory in a way that I’ve never felt before. Do you have any tips on how to turn guitar into a viable career? And I realize this is a lot to answer so don’t feel obligated.
Well it's a combo between TH-cam/performing/teaching. Best advice is to do as much as you can and have a variety of ways you make your income until you can focus and make a living on one thing. Best of luck!
Damn! You never fail to impress!Juicy chords!It's funny the nay sayers about you, still never miss a video! Hahahahaha! I find them grasping and hilarious . Thanks for the education!
I was hoping to see it on guitar, since I’m already working on a guitar version, and you seem to post the most streamlined tutorials. (Despite all the random comments. 🤣)
Dig what you getting at here. However it would be immensely helpful if you started by demonstrating the exercise completely through a few times without talking. Looks at 7:15 is where you lay out the exercise.
Have you ever been so engrossed with a tuning and genre that you forget 90% of songs you know in standard when you return to that tuning? Or am i just that forgetful?
Damn, key of F for 2019. Gonna be a long year...
Most likely.
F Lydian would be alright for the year!
taylodl That’s cheating sir! That would be key of C. 🙂
It was infact a long year
"Some Guitar Chord Stuff You Should Probably Know"
Up there with the top video titles of TH-cam.
I'm clearly running out of titles.
@@seandaniel23 It's gloriously vague and also it kind of shames the viewer. Great stuff.
So true, I didnt know why i clicked but im glad i did, it should have been called the "Fun and Fabulous Fables in the key of F"
I have seen that guitar like 14 times now but still cant get over the fact it looks like a kings throne made into a guitar.
Fit for a King!
Is that guitar very small or is Sean sort of a giant?
Sean, these videos of yours are terrific! Very useful information without a lot of yakkity-yak and nonsense. You manage to be humorous without reducing it all to a comedy routine. I find you very approachable. Great job! Keep it up.
Thanks so much Sam! I'll keep em coming!
Nice.I do this often to practice my different chords voicings,on each string.e,root,a,root,d.ect.
Thanks for watching!
Hey, Sean. Maybe a lesson on effective ways to use key changes?
Good idea!
Yes!
Yes! More like this please Sean! Really cool. Open chords are clearly our enemy and these videos give confidence as to how to move around the neck with moveable options that add a lot of vibe. Really cool, keep this up please, good work, thanks!

I'm actually really glad to hear that '19 is the year of the Key of F! I'm so burnt out on A and G.
It'll be a good one.
Maybe do a video on chord inversions and how to use them. Food for thought :D
Great idea!
Really helpful video this is just what i needed right now. Can you please do the arrpegio video you talked about i think that would help me alot
I'm on it!
I love the random tangents during the intros.

New to guitar. No clue what just happened here, but I like your style and I will work to understand this. Take me to the promised land
Follow my lead!
Great video my man! I've actually been a lot more intuitive to Chords lately, and this is a good way to keep forward!
Happy to hear it!
WOW, I feel cool for one split second.. Because I honestly knew these chord shapes. Neat.
Awesome sounds, great information, great humor, gained another subscriber! Keep the good work up man !

Bear with me but the purpose of these voicings are just to find alternate chords if I’m trapped using a bunch of the basic open chords?
That's one reason, another would being identifying the interval or space between notes in a key across the guitar.
