    I think I get it. Moving these arpeggios around along with each chord change makes for good practice. Cool stuff.

    Another person commenting to say I heard that chord progression you made up saying "you must have heard this in some song before", and I thought, "yeah, that's Island In The Sun by Weezer!" And then you gave it the voice leading on top, and you literally played Island In The Sun! That made me smile hahaha, I've watched a ton of your videos and I've gotten a ton out of them, but I had to comment on this one

    Guthrie is proof you can more with less. From hitting those chord tones to his gear. Love watchin the videos man! I’m an intermediate player that is now determined to venture into CAGED, triads and inversions after hearing you bash it into my head over and over again. Always great playing. I enjoy seein the little rig rundowns though too every once in a while. That record you and TB are doing is gonna be a phenomenal one! Think it was released already. I’ll look for it

You're right on the money in your teaching of the fingerboard. You, Buk, Jack Ruch and Tomo Fujita are excellent teachers, and I borrow some of your methods in teaching my students. Keep up the good work!!

    I have commented on a few other videos...but this stuff is golden! I took guitar lessons from 13-16 yrs old and learned how to read music. But then I quit. I just faked and improvised my way through a few bands and then only played very sporadically for myself) for 25 years. Now at age 54, I started relearning last year and these videos (among some other good you tubers) have pulled it all together for me! There are truly many "AHA" moments!!! Thanks Guthrie!

    You need to go back and watch your old videos. Watching you explore the neck and coming up with different melodies and ideas is pretty interesting. I wish there was an app capable of dictating note for note in tab form. That way someone can go back and replay it using different instruments in the app. Pretty cool video. Thanks!

    "It's about the Big Chords and breaking them down." and "What's making that sound is the chords Changing".
    That's the gold from this video. Music is not knowing crazy chords. Music is what you hear when you move from simple chord to simple chord with a rhythm. The way play is taking Guthrie's triad lessons and moving them around the neck. When I want to hear the complexity of these crazy chords, I put my pinky down somewhere. I couldn't tell you if I've played a 9th or a Flat 13th to save my life unless I recorded it and analyzed it later. And I don't really care to use my mind's bandwidth on that kind of stuff. If it sounds good, do that again. Anyway I hope others are having as much fun as I am, thanks to Guthrie and his cut through the bullshit approach.🤠

    There’s very few guys out there who are both top musicians and natural teachers - Jack Rusch is definitely one of them. Victor Wooten is another - he doesn’t even play guitar and I’ve learned more about my playing from him in a few videos than I have from hours of some other guys. Both them just “get” music at another level and have the natural ability to communicate it so clearly.

  • @JackOfAllTrades21
    @JackOfAllTrades21 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very nice and just what I need. Question tho. If you just use the Em scale to move to the next chord (Am in this case) and you don’t think about the G major scale, how do you know which Em scale to use? I mean if your next chord is Cmajor and the progression is in CM the second note in the Em scale will be an E# and not a D as when the progression is based on Gmajor. I guess im overthinking it and it is probably holding me back more than making me better. But do you not think about these things at all when you are improvising?
