      Thanks to you I just got started on the path after 50 years of play. I am doing everything I can to share your beginner lessons with the world Dr. Steve. You have discovered the cure for music cancer that is killing the world. Music cancer causes 90% who purchase a guitar to give up. Rock on doctor.

      Steve, I want to play the blues because to me that's music. When starting your lessons about 6 months ago has helped so much. I need to learn so much more cause I've just started learning. Thanks bro

    Steve,
    2 years ago I picked up a guitar for the first time in 40 years (army, family and teaching). I needed some form of physical therapy after I injured my hands in Afghanistan in 2013. Last time I played was 1977. I've listen to dozens of lessons online and you are the first instructor I understand. I'm very happy to have found you. A BIG thank you brother.

      Wil Seda - I totally agree! I have taught guitar class in public schools since 1978 and Steve is by far the most effective and knowledgeable online instructor I have found.

      Wil read your post and amazed at the almost mirror image of our adult lives. I stop playing years ago because I couldn’t write or play without my wife getting jealous of some imaginary girl, smashed guitar then never played seriously for years. Through in 5 deployments Iraq Afghan Pakistan distroyed back and ptsd that has made short term mem none existent. I total feel ya bro. Rock on

  • @KipIngram
    @KipIngram 5 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    Steve, I have to say I've seen a lot of guitar videos over the years that I thought had at least some level of merit, but yours are the best bar none. Everything about your content, your presentation style, your personality, etc. is just spot on for me. Thanks for putting this material together - I feel nearly sure I'll spring for one of your courses; I just need to figure out which one. This video in particular is excellent - most of the bits of information in it I already knew, but you just brought them together with such clarity that I feel like I actually "get" the big picture better.
    Keep up the great work, man!

    In my teen days, I played guitar with tabs and how to play that song youtube vides & etc. Now that I'm 25, I played again and realized I didn't even bother to know the theory back then and so here I am. Strange times when we mature.

  • @godu1111
    @godu1111 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I`ve listen to a million youtube guitar teachers and also bought a couple of courses.
    Steve is hands down the best and the reason is that he knows ...... how to teach !
    Guitar players that know how to play are a dime a dozen, but someone that also has the skill to convey this knowledge is a rare sight.
    Steve, you rule

  • @MarkWBallard
    @MarkWBallard 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I've been picking at my guitar for 40 years or so and I've become technically proficient within limits. When I started out, I learned the basic chords, but I've never had the luxury of having the slightest understanding of music theory. Frankly, I always got lost when I tried taking that next step. Last month, I stumbled across Steve Stine's excellent series of lessons and lights began turning on in the musical wasteland inside my head. Thank you Steve, for your whiteboard and your logical progression of lessons. Your bite sized lessons have helped me to make sense of my instrument in a way I never would have
    imagined.

    Thanks be unto the universe for delivering to us Steve "Ein" Stine !! *THE* best guitar teacher this side of Proxima Centauri !
    Seriously, man... I can't thank you enough for how you've helped me come to grips with learning this new language of music. And it really *is* like learning a new language, but "Ein" Stine makes it far easier than I thought it would/could be. I've had more 'aha!' moments while watching a small handful of your videos than in my entire 30ish years of -->trying

  • @Ozzwald99
    @Ozzwald99 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Steve, your lessons are awesome man. I've been playing for almost 25 years almost solely by ear and never bothered to learn theory (regretfully I might add). Your explanations are easy to follow and make total sense. For the first time I am starting to see the fretboard linking together. Thanks man. Keep up,the great work!

  • @z4p0tek
    @z4p0tek 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have had an electric guitar (custom fender) for over 20 years. Played it for only a couple of times because my voice is my main instrument and I thought I'm too clumsy. With your videos I have started to develop my skills very fast. Thank you sir for your brilliant lessons.

    Steve it's so get to have some help in these areas of my guitar/music understanding. I have been playing for twenty years and find myself still searching for understanding of what is is I'm doing. I really appreciate your humility, and graciousness to take your time to teach people music. It's really awesome. Thanks man!

  • @alessiogemma2470
    @alessiogemma2470 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Steve. This is amazing. You really explain things in details while offering the overall picture. I used to play when I was a kid and then stopped for many years. I started back 5 years ago and got fascinated with all the theory behind the sounds. As an adult, I really value the possibility to learn at my own pace and your videos help so much. Thanks for the time and sharing. Alesiso

    Of all the folks providing guidance on guitar, this is by far the most professional, knowledgable and valuable channel to learn. I have found answers here that no professional music treacher have been able to provide. Perhaps it’s just my own wierdness that causes the confusion. Well, in that case, this guy “gets” me.

  • @mlg4035
    @mlg4035 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This theory lesson is EPIC!!! It clears up so much confusion and creates so much clarity about how music 'works'!! Now I have to go back and watch the first two videos to add some missing perspective. Steve Stine, you ROCK!!! Thank you! I'm signing up for your theory course today!!

  • @rodsdaytona
    @rodsdaytona 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Steve, are you still teaching at college? How fortunate for the students there. I took college level music 101, teacher was not bad. A piano player, and his approach was key board related. Only five years in picking up the guitar (85') and boy I just couldn't grasp theory. Failed the course, tried the following year and, the instructor was a classical guitar player from Germany. You remind me of him, and I was drawn to him like the Bible. I got a chance to jam with him a few times out side the class room. My family had some unfortunate situations that made me miss my final exam which was on a Friday and, grades to be released that following Monday. Because I had a good report with him, and he knew of my family situation. He let me take the test at his home and, I passed the class with no problem. What a great person he was for helping me, and I will never forget meeting great people like that. I have meet Steve Vai a couple of times and, I hope to get to meet you some day.

    Dear steve
    After 18 years of playing guitar blindly and without any idea what i'm doing , using many tabs and gp file and just playing cover songs, also because of family pressure to playing piano instead of electric guitar, now by seeing your video's , my foggy mind in playing completely cleared , i dont know how to thank you, if i was near by i would come and bring you gifts. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge.

  • @ross3818
    @ross3818 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The 3 letter skips you showed us here is so cool. Adding the circle of fifths/fourths to that gives this: going counter-clockwise, after F, the 5th is flatted, and going clockwise, after G, the 3rd is sharped. In the enharmonic zone that gets warped, but, yeah. Thank you Steve!

    I did not understand this the first time I watched it. Then today I stumbled upon another creator who made a video about turning a major scale into chord progressions, and he mentioned the M-m-m-M-M-m-d formula without getting into the technical part yet. So I didn't understand that video as well. I remembered this video (vaguely; had to search for a little while) because of that formula, and now I am back here, simply amazed by these theories, how they all connect and are applied. I guess what I'm saying is thank you. Thanks to you and all the other creators here who are putting out content for us. Thank you. :)

      I grew up learning by ear didn't have access to this, so now i play very well by ear. Theory is important so ive been trying to learm but it just doesn't make semse , it never has but for some reason i can just play on or over everything that i come across. Theres something be said for for both methods. Im learning the theory because i want to, but I have never walked into a session and not been able to keep up or even move past folx who know theory. I feel like sometimes folx grt so lost in theory holes they cant just let the music flow. Hoping this will begin to make sense but I really think you folx need to realize there's real esr players who have impeccable ears out there and saying definitely thay we are not good for having thay ability feels narrow minded. Ive literally seen folx say what you're saying then watch me play or sing and say, you dont know any theory? And im like i just started learning theory... but have been playing complex shit forever , my ear just gets it i dont know why, its not a bad thing, ears are great, and theory is too, thats what you should be saying, learn both techniques. Learn both.

But this one video just opened up a whole new world to me. Up until now, I could never fully understand the theory behind it all. 32 years later I finally get it. And mostly because you put it into something I fully understand...MATH. Lol. Thank you Steve. Hats off to ya.

  • @airsoftluver123

    I understand how to count the whole steps to get two, but im not understanding how you got 1 1/2 steps at all.

    • @mephistovonfaust
      @mephistovonfaust 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Because there are half steps in between the notes. You count in thirds:
      C->D->E->F->G->A->B->C
      You have half steps from the third to the forth and from the seventh to the eighth. That means:
      C -> D = Fullstep (1)
      D -> E = Fullstep (1)
      E -> F = Halfstep (1/2)
      F -> G = Fullstep (1)
      G -> A = Fullstep (1)
      A -> B =Fullstep (1)
      B -> C =Halfstep (1/2)
      Now the C Chord consist of C, E, and G. From C to E you have two Fullsteps, from E to G on the other hand one Fullstep and one Halfstep. That's why it's 2 over 1 & 1/2. You can convert this on all other Chords.

    • @MrGort
      @MrGort 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Did you get an answer? If not: the way we tune musical instruments results in 12 half steps in an Octave (8 notes, like from C to C). The tonal 'distance' from one note to the next note higher is either 1 half step or 2 half steps. C->D is 2 half steps or 1 whole step. There are only 2 intervals (distance between 2 notes) in a major scale that have 1 half step. That's E->F and B->C. All the rest are 2 half steps. So in a Triad, where you are looking at the steps between the root, third and fifth, just count the half steps between the two notes. You'll get 2 whole steps(4 half steps) or 1 1/2 steps, depending on where you start.
      If you count all the half steps now you'll get 12. The reasoning for having the two half step intervals is your ear. The way you hear music that is 'pleasing'. Check out google for a more in depth discussion on 'musical intervals'. There are lots that very good. Steve might have covered this in other lessons, I'm not all the way through. I'd check his lessons first. Best of luck.

    For sure a gifted teacher if I can understand it. Steve, I had to come back the next day and look back at the Mighty 7. I then grabbed my chromatic pitch instrument, and went backwards on the notes. GEC is NBC's chime. AFD, oh that's a pick at those 3 notes all day long and so on. That was a huge puzzle condensed for me, theory wise. The fixed triads. Chase any Root, then the 3-5 count, skip the (C), go find the note on the fret board. Thanks! Signed, Reversengineering.

I've been playing guitar on and off for 38 yrs. I'm not an accomplishment or naturally talented musician however I am able to entertain my self and continue to be intrigued and enjoy continuously challenged by new things in the guitar. I have never been able to learn the notes that you were teaching I've been shown some things through the years. Either I couldn't understand it as well so if I'm not getn something pretty quickly I tend to elaborate and do what I se makes sense and most likely it's goin to be incorrect. I watched literally 5 minutes if your video and though I haven't memorized them yet I do understand where they are, what they are and what you do with the knoedge of knowing and understanding the theory behind it thank you sir for your teaching approach and ability that you have. Along with your enourmous generosity to use your skill in a way that doesn't cost someone a fortune. God bless you thank you
