Ok, been watching your vids. They're good. To cover the multiple ways of learning, it would be *super helpful* if you could add the sounds of what you're stating and showing (instead of a "blip" sound), so there may be an audible connection to the words and pictures. Thanks for your hard work!
This is like the Loretta stone of guitar chords ! it’s possible to play chords simply by knowing the fingering but it’s so much more fun to know how to make the chords by knowing where to find the notes that you need to make the chords . I f I am understanding this correctly , we are Starting with the notes in the Ionian mode but we can go on to use the other modes . In a. Perfect world we could find another chord shape for each mode meaning you can make the same chord but with a different fingering shape no matter where you are at on the fretboard . Does that sound about right.
I’m an elderly Roman statesman who’s been playing the electric xylophone for 900 years. This is the most comprehensive list of chord types that I’ve ever seen anywhere.
I stopped myself from commenting on this all week, until I watched over and over. This Sam, is by far the greatest lesson on chord building that I’ve ever watched. Thanks mate for your hard work and easy to follow lesson, and the other videos on your site 👍🏻🇬🇧🎸
I have to reply after watching this once. I’m not stupid lol, unless you ask an ex… 😂😂😂 but I’m gonna have to watch this over and over as well. Not that it’s confusing or a bad video, just to process lol
I had a music teacher who drilled theory into my head. Years later I am so happy he did. For those of you who did not get formal training I highly recommend this video. It is streamlined for perfect understanding. If you need to, break it down into sections. Thank you to the professor behind this lesson.
This channel is criminally underrated. One of the most straightforward approaches I’ve ever seen. All your channel content is so clear, well laid out, and easy to follow other creators should be jealous. Keep it up I’m learning loads.
Been trying to get music theory under my belt as a guitar player these last few weeks but this is just the most clear and well layed out video on chord building I've seen. Many thanks
I can NOT believe I NEVER thought to apply this strategy to the major scale. If you base it off of the major scale positions on both strings (E and A) you can create the chords across the neck on all strings and experiment with different chord voicing’s/inversions. Thank you so much! This was eye opening
This is seriously the easiest most fastest straight forward lesson on this that exists on TH-cam that I found so far and although I am not new to MusicTheory or chord construction, I stumbled upon this video and just randomly clicked on it and was more interested to see if this could help my sister who is just starting out with MusicTheory and I am definitely going to share this with her because for an absolute beginner this is so clear. Great video!
I came across this video because I wanted to start playing again after taking a long period off of not playing guitar. This is a great refresher and a time saver as I refresh my memory on what I learned years ago. Thanks for the help and greatly appreciated.
Wow. 5 years ago when I joined my high school's jazz band as a guitarist, I had never even seen a single chord symbol in my life. Triangles... circles... sharp this, add that, omit this... i was completely lost. I had to make Flashcards for every single chord on every song we played for 6 months until I could actually keep up with the band. I didn't understand the theory behind it at the time. I just learned one shape at one spot for each chord, which did make jumping around the fretboard really hard! But man. Those 6 months of brutal practice for hours and hours every day could've been condensed into maybe a month or less if I had this video. Awesome job!
You should be applauded for the quality and effectiveness of this video. You covered everything from most basic to the more complex without it ever getting confusing and still managing to keep it as concise as possible. It's really a simple concept but it's easy to get lost without a visual guide, and the changing graphics were perfectly timed to make it clear for everyone.
This is SO much easier for keyboard players! I've played keys and guitar for 50-years now and what you've described is actually pretty trivial once it's shown in context. It's when you have to contort your hands into unnatural positions on the guitar that this becomes REALLY difficult! For a keyboardist, it's a piece of cake...
Funny thing, as a guitar player, I have the same contortion issues about playing keyboard. Especially regarding the visual aspect and transposing. It's so so much easier on guitar, IMHO. As long as I'm playing in C or G (and maybe A) piano is great fun. I've come this far, so what's with those horn players and that whole Bb thing? Talk about a guitarist nightmare? Until you tune down two frets, problem solved. Can't do that (easily) on a wooden piano tho. Rant over. What a cool channel and batch of videos on chord theory!
Every guitar player should learn theory. I learned it and it has helped me. As you said, you don’t have to memorize any of this. I never did but I know the whole neck of my guitar.
This is insanely helpful, in 17 minutes (actually more like 30 cause i took way to many notes) this helped me understand everything i was missing about chord naming and finding the intervals and notes within those chords. Video deserves more than the one like i can give
This here is top notch "Golden Video"... Thank you for taking the time to explain the formulas for chords. The way you've layed it out to understand is inspiring, and simply superb.
This is by far the best lesson I’ve ever watched about this subject. It helps a lot, it’s just so good and well explained. I’m recommending this to my friends!
This is literally incredible, I'm someone who needs to understand before I can do, and this channel so far has been a goldmine for this. Thanks for all your work 👊
Sam is the best theory and guitar instructor of all time. I would recommend subscribing and start from the beginning to learn and advance your skills in learning how to play a guitar…period! Thanks Sam
I found this video very helpful, especially when naming unusual chord voicings on guitar. There was a song a friend wrote that used a open G grip up two frets (from low E to high e strings the frets would be 5-4-0-0-0-5). I now know this would be referred to as an A11 chord as it contains scale degrees 1 3 b7 9 and 11.
Sometimes you find yourself idly descending the TH-cam search results, into the oblivion of videos with triple digit views. And sometimes when you're in there, you find gold. This is it. 🥇
Thank you very much🙂🙂 this particular lesson took alot of time/effort so a comment like this means alot...feel free to check out any of my other Lessons👍👍
@@Samjamguitar Don't worry, it shows! I really enjoyed your presentation. You've got pretty much (Well, in my opinion ha) the perfect blend of humour to keep it entertaining. Dry dead pan delivery with bizarre stock images is a surefire laugh from me. But moreover your voice is also just calm and pleasant as narration. I'm really green in the music world and I'm still coming to grips with even basic theory, so this did great job demystifying chord construction for me, which previously seemed like 50% black magic. The sound effects, animations, and repeated guided breakdowns of the chord formulas made it all really easy to follow along with. Still, by the end I had trouble keeping all the new information together, so I'm gonna have to do a few repeat viewings as you recommended haha. For sure going to watch more of your videos!
Best summary of my channel's general teaching approach I've heard so far 👌👌 Glad that it's all coming across in the way I intended 🙂 if you have any suggestions for further lessons then feel free to leave them in the comments...I have a list I'm working through but always on the look out for new ideas... Oh and ring that NOTICATION BELL 🔔 if you haven't already 👍
Once again a thoroughly intense and beautifully laid out lesson! So much packed in such a short amount time. Unpacking now up to me slowly and accurately mastering each step along the way. Thank you!!! PS great graphics on fretboard and symbolic pics!✌️❤️
Being a self-taught guitarist, I always thought that the naming of chords was so confusing until I learnt some basic major, minor, augmented and diminished triads and watched this video today ! You made it so easy man ! ❤ Thanks !❤️🔥✨💪
I just discovered this channel. Fantastic content and amazing job of consolidating music theory concepts into easily understood concise videos. Subscribed!
This should be at the top of every guitar lesson search on TH-cam. OMG, I'm just now contemplating the number of hours that this video could have saved guitarists. Very well done video!
Great video on chord building. I also have a reference: "Piano and Keyboard Chords" that I found at Half Price Books. Love your graphics and straightforward presentation.
Thanks Steve! Let me know what topics you would like to see me cover in the future 👍 and feel free to hit the NOTICATION BELL 🔔 if you haven't already 🙂
Thanks for this lesson. I guess it was the right timing for me. I knew this chord theory should all make sense finally. Thank you for taking it home for me. Yes, I thought the same. Why have a book with 1000 chords. Huh ???
This one simple and straightforward explanation has demystified the basis behind chord names as well as help to find the varying possible chords behind any root note within a melody. Subscribed with thanks from Malaysia.
W H A T T H E H E C K this is most digestible explanation and presentation of theory on the guitar (western music in general) I've ever seen in my life! All in less than 20 mins. You are the real MVP 🏆
Around the time you first released this video. I had no idea of the concept. Today I ran across this video again. Man, I had learned enough about notes and scales that now this all makes since. Thank you so much. That is what I am into now, learning these beautiful building blocks.
This is exactly what I've been looking for. One of the greatest guitar lessons I've seen. Thank you for taking the time to compile this and release it. It's having an impact.
Love u sir. U motivate me to push even on the days where we don’t feel like it. My dad has cancer and financially we are unstable but because of u I get the motivation and the drive to also pursue my career as a musician ( flamenco guitarist) and complete my engineering nicely.
This is probably the easiest and fastest way to lean all chords with no tears. This teaching method is stunning by its simplicity and visuals. Congratulations to the creators! Greetings from 🇵🇦

Watching this and affirming the knowledge I’ve been acquiring gradually from multiple sources was really confidence boosting. This is a very full and comprehensive guide and being able to connect/recognise all of it mostly intuitively feels like I’ve reached a solid benchmark in my understanding of chord theory. Thanks!

How much would you charge to teach music theory per hour on zoom?

Yep, one of the if not THE best guitar chord tutorial for begginers on youtube.
I agree 100%.
Homie you just made me realize how easy this stuff is the most intimidating part is learning the fret board to incorporate this knowledge
It doesn't have to be difficult! Hope you get on well with the rest of the videos on my channel!

AMAZING
Wow. ALOT of info here. Thanks.
No probs 👌
I now realize why knowing your scales is so important. Super helpful
True, but when it comes to building chords you only need the major scale. All chord formulas, ever, are applied to major scales, Only.
My goodness..This video was straight fire..😎
👌
Cant underestimate the importance of this channel. Great job man. Definitely my favorite theory channel
