    I can say as someone who mainly plays blues I can totally understand why people can get intimidated by more complicated chords. Us blues peeps have to really know our dominant 7,9,11 and 13th chords as well as minor 7 and minor 7b5 chords and they can definitely seem intimidating. My advice is like anything else, learn them one at a time and the different ways of playing them one at a time and start applying them to chord progressions in your practice, before you know it they will be part of your vocabulary. The big key is to be patient with yourself and try not to do too much too fast.

    Ive come to learn that most people are comfortable knowing just enough to do whatever it is theyre doing successfully. Its really the odd people out that dive into things always looking for more knowledge and increasing their skills. Particularly if that knowledge requires real time and effort to acquire. Time and effort are the filters between good and great.

    The minor chord directly clockwise of the key you're in is the same root note for the diminished chord for the key you're in. For example in C major you're diminished chord is B°. The directly clockwise minor chord is Bm. Just remember that its diminished instead of minor and it shows you what chord you need.

    I thought that - just in case people are still frightened by the "big" chords - maybe one of the next videos might be about the same chords... But the shell voicings. Or as i say "the rabble"s jazz chords".

    Do courses on your site contain lessons to learn all 7 3NPS with backing tracks and combining them with aprs to target chord tones? :) Or rather you base your courses on 5 CAGED fingerings? Thanks for this lessons on TH-cam!

    • @zombieguitar
      @zombieguitar  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Johann, thank for checking out the site. To answer your question...Yes to everything you asked!
      The thing I want to point out is that the site teaches CAGED correctly with TONS of supporting courses for direct application.
      You are confusing the CAGED system with the "5 pattern approach" to visualizing the diatonic scale. That is the universal misunderstanding in the guitar community.
      You are asking "7 patterns" or "5 patterns", neither of which have anything to do with the CAGED system at all!
      Yes the site teaches how to navigate the neck in any key (layer 1) using the "3 pattern", the "5 pattern" and the "7 pattern" approach. Pick which one you like the best!
      The site then teaches all about keeping up with the chord changes (layer 2). That is what the CAGED system is for. It's one of multiple approaches to this specific goal (keeping up with the chord changes).
      There's lots of other stuff too, but hopefully that answers your question 😃

    I don't understand why we mute the note in the first string in the Maj 7 chord. This note is part of the chord.

    • @Archangel_Michaels
      @Archangel_Michaels ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, I was thinking the same thing
      Hey Brian .... why do we mute the A string ???

    • @d.t.3958
      @d.t.3958 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That note is the perfect 4th and therefore not part of the chord. On the a string you'd either play one fret towards the neck (the major 3rd as in the G-shape of the CAGED system) or two frets up towards the bridge (the perfect 5th or the E-shape barre-chord). And since that is very uncomfortable to do, we leave out that string for the maj7 rooted in the e string.
      If you take the same shape but include the note below the root (the 4th as we
      saw), you'd have 1-3-4-5-7 or 1-3-5-7-11, which would technically be a Maj7Add11 chord. It still sounds alright because all notes are part of the scale, but compared to the "plain* maj7 chord, there's yet another layer, some more color (you can play them back to back for comparison).
      The added color comes out more, If that added 11th is the highest note.
      Hope this helps:-)

      @michaeldematteis3409 ปีที่แล้ว

      I see what you mean,he was using the A maj7 as an example.the first string would be an open E,which is in the chord so you could use it.but if you’re using say a G maj 7 that string is not in the chord.same with the a string in that case

    • @zombieguitar
      @zombieguitar  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      As I said in the video, you can include the note on the high E-string as well in that maj7 chord shape, but you don't have to. The 1, 3, 5 and 7 are all still in there without it 😁

    Hello Brian, When is it necessary to play 7th chord including maj7, min7? Is all the general major and minor chords does not fit for all the songs.

    • @zombieguitar
      @zombieguitar  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When you think of the chords as NUMBERS instead of actual chords, that gives you all the info you need...
      Example progression: C - Am - F - G
      As numbers: I - vi - IV - V
      Played as single notes: C A F G
      As power chords: C5 A5 F5 G5
      As triads: C Am F G
      As 7ths: Cmaj7 Am7 Fmaj7 G7
      Start out by first identifying each chords FUNCTION within the key, then you can mix and match with triads, 7ths, power chords, single notes, extended chords 🎸
