A little about me:
Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
He plays and teaches guitar on his TH-cam channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

I've been playing guitar for awhile, casually. I've watched plenty of "This one easy guitar trick will BLOW YOUR MIND" videos and pretty much all of them suck. They usually always over promise, under deliver, and I'm left thinking I'm too dumb to play guitar (after years of play).
I actually understand this video and I'll be able to use this to play and improvise better on guitar.
Thank you for your time,
I am now subscribed.
I love that metaphor,
I have a similar one about learning songs tab = sat nav
By ear = using your Brain, and thats why for me I can never remember music that I have sight read
Not gonna lie, this video sounds like there’s 10 beers sitting behind the camera. This was one of the most easy to understand brilliant videos. Thank you. Love it
10+ beers
😂
😂
Excellent video!!!
One beer away from fighting with the camera 😂
Thank you for making this lesson super accessible. You're absolutely right--students, especially on the younger side, have no fun trying to memorize the "road map." Thanks for sharing!!
HOLY SMOKES, this is one of the best lesson ive even taken, ima sub now..thank you
The first thing I do every time I pick up my guitar is play the version of Blackbird you taught in another lesson. l sometimes I don't even screw it up so that's pretty awesome. Also, I had to google lululemon swag but it so fits with your other landmarks.
This lesson sounds like a quick way to add a little jazz jam to a repertoire, but how about a similar lesson on an easy jam for blues / rock?
Right on, this was good brotha!!! 👍🏾
Aha! This is noodling material. Thanks for turning the lights green to a new part of town 😂
Makz me wann jast hitstuff widda riddim stikka! Tank mam
Your directions were like a short cut to from your house to the local coffee shop via bloody well Siberia.
what is that beautiful guitar?? my next dream
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t memorize roads
I don’t like to be an internet troll, but you literally started off with “don’t use scales blah blah”
And proceeded to play an F major scale 5 mins later, and finished off with “don’t trust people who know all the scales blah blah”
As a guitar teacher, this is a limited approach to teaching guitar, I get the point of simplifying the process and making it easier for beginners to understand how to improvise etc.
But it’s no different to starting off with a pentatonic scale or a major scale and adding in a few guitar licks and ideas.
Might as well be click bait at this point
kinda getting the sense that you digested an edible 30 minutes prior to making this video, if that's the case then keep it up, this was helpful and entertaining
😂😂😂😂
God, it pisses me off that your hand just moves so naturally... One day
Suggestion,
Play something interesting from the beginning and then explain how you do it. It creates anticipation and a reason to continue watching the video. I stopped at around 2 minutes because you lost my interest.
Could be because he was baked and all over the place.
Did anyone else mumble under their breath "A sharp.." when he said B flat?... No? Just me? Awe jeez..
Honestly I don't know how you're restraining yourself from spinning around on the spinny chair
If he had spun around it would have given me some closure.
as a person who never even licked music theory is is kinda understandable
This is just an incredible lesson. I’ve been self learning on TH-cam for the last 4-5 years and for anyone that has done that it’s like driving in low visibility where you just get glimpses of where you’re headed. Watching this lesson I just kept having these “oh!! I see bits of those triad lessons I practiced for months” or “that’s those months of pentatonic shapes I practiced”or my favorite “that looks like the Mateus asato rabbit hole I went into.” It’s amazing to get a feeling of clicking, and that’s what just happened beginning to end of this video for me. Cheers!
I know chords and scales, at least academically. I think your view of these these things are very good for getting these things in your ear and fingers. Relying on monuments rather than roadmaps is a very good analogy. Thanks for posting this video
I could be wrong, but I think most pros just know where intervals are...key doesn't matter as much as knowing where your roots, thirds, fifth and seventh intervals are. Now if you know scale patterns and your intervals, you're on your way.
@@HigherPlanes most of us learned the CAGE system then branched into learning other things. We've played them so long that it becomes second nature. I've been a musician 45 years and taught 41 of those years. I would say, this is an additional way to think but it gives you a limited subset of the fretboard. My advice is to learn music theory, learn the CAGED system, learn the the notes per string concept, learn single string leads and other scale firms and systems as you find them. Don't trust people who tell you shortcuts and tell you that you don't have to learn. If you want to be good, learn everything you can know now and know theory. Practice sll of them until they become second nature to you.
That’s great advice. I pretty much do everything you mentioned. I try to learn as mi h as I can without getting overwhelmed. I think with guitar it’s about the journey not the destination. I’ve been playing for 20 years and some days I still feel like a beginner
I've played guitar for 29 years. I'm lost, I've never done meth.
Sean, thanks for continuing with the theme. One of the key reasons why I value specifically your guitar lesson videos is that most of them take the "let's get a small win" approach, and deal with parts of the fretboard that are easy to understand and manage. You could also combine this lesson with your other lesson, and show where the triads for the main six chords are hiding in the same spot.
Very helpful video. Seems amazing to me, as long as I have been playing it seems I've never needed to play a root 6 major 7 chord. It took me a little while to get my fingers into that shape. So from this video I got a movable chord shape, a 3 note per string major scale and some great shapes for improvising. All outside of my minor pentatonic rock & blues comfort zone. Thanks
Man I've been playing for 20 yrs and finally someone explained what I had learned by instinct thanks for putting into words it's affirming
It takes time and practice to really learn the fret board notes. But if you do learn it then your scope as a musician is limitless. But each to their own. Frankly chords are just multiple notes. And learning to play with both right and left hands is the key. I play both classical and a Gibson.
I can’t watch someone that is so arrogant
Horrible
Teaching the theory would be better, even if it was just in chunks, so that people could understand the why- it’s not three chords from one note. It’s 3 chords by building the diatonic harmony from the scale. Guitar players have been tricked into thinking this is the one instrument that you don’t need to understand to master. If one is observant, they will note that the greats for which that might be true are very few and far between. It appears that most “really good” guitarists these days understand intervals and they understand diatonic harmony at a minimum. It should be a universal thing that is taught - music theory and visualization on the fretboard.
Though you are speaking in terms of intervals..you are simply playing modally. Learning modes is MUCH easier than thinking "just do this'...
IMO
you are like my guitar sage GPS :)
happy to help!
drunk sloppy fretting like sitting in a bar and a drunk is trying to explain scales which by the way is why I don't drink!
Thought I was intermediate before watching this, turns out, I am infact, not intermediate
I couldn't understand a word of this, the speed and the mumbling lost me.
Wonderful. I hate learning stuff. It makes my head hurt. I'm so glad you don't think learning the note names, scales etc is valuable. Your teaching method is perfect for someone as lazy as myself.
I don't know Sean it just seemed like you're kind of all over the map....
Worst guitar lesson ever
I cannot tell you how much this video just MAKES SENSE. Man I need to play again, this makes me so much less afraid if the guitar.
This is the best lesson you’ve done. I can now connect the modes to the chords and finally start to solo without sounding like the guitar grimoire. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
That was the most fun I have had on a guitar for ages, this is a great lesson, really does make you feel like you have the freedom to explore the guitar without getting lost. Fantastic stuff.
You know, if you keep up this level of instruction, I may, one day - with lots of practice - end up playing reasonably well.
Thanks, mate. Cheers from Downundah.
This is one of the most beneficial guitar videos I've ever seen. I'm gonna drive around all day on this!!!
Love this guy. I’d buy him a beer anytime. He’s brilliant
Sir this old lesson brings home so much. It's all the lessons sonically fused in a way that sounds good and helps creatively
Thanks so much!
you're just "reconextualising" how to practice a major scale, but missing out the most important information... The actual CONTEXT: The intervals, the actual note names. You say don't bother learning scale 'roadmaps', then when you demonstrate the kinds of melodic phrases you can get from 'your method' you just end up running up and down a major scale shape anyway. You're replacing the aforementioned scalic roadmaps, with your own roadmaps that just don't have as much gravitas when it comes to actually learning the most important elements of how to a) learn the guitar fretboard, and b) actually understand music theory and how to apply it. There are no 'shortcuts' to learning guitar, or any instrument for that matter. Stick to learning your major scales kids, stick to learning and understanding intervalic structures within them. Do it everyday. Name the actual notes by their intervals relative to the root note and by their actaul note names, not their fret numbers. Saying "fret 3 on the b string" is pointless. It's a D, call it a D. Relative to F on the low E string it's a 13, relative to Bb on the A string it's a major 3rd, relative C on the A string it's a major 9th, relative to the open high e string it's a b7th and so on. Learn this stuff, drill your intervals, play all your major scales within the first 5 frets. Practice to a metronome. Learn and practice your inversions. It's way more important than any so called 'shortcuts', 'hacks', 'cheats' or whatever other crap clickbait name you wanna give it. Learning and understanding music is ALL about context. You can't contextualise anything without knowing what the hell it is that your actually playing.
100% agree with you. These kind of you-tube video 'lessons' are not lessons at all because there is no contextual reference. Might be okay for guys that want to noodle around, but it offers nothing for learning how to navigate the fretboard - it's IRRESPONSIBLE FOR A TEACHER, to dismiss the importance of UNDERSTANDING AND BEING ABLE TO MAP OUT RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN INTERVALS, SCALES, CHORDS, TRIADS, CAGED SYSTEM ETC AND HOW THOSE RELATIONSHIPS ARE STRUCTURED ON THE FRETBOARD.
Wow wasn’t sure what to think as a first time viewer of your channel and you totally won me over! This was a great lesson for me, really got me excited to start improvising. Thank you!
Welcome to the party, Blaine!
Excellent! So, don't use a road map, unless you do. But if you do, don't think about it, just contextualise it. Oh, and don't trust anyone who knows where they're going...
Sounds great!
you've got it!
Wow, this is a real great guitar lesson and I’ve had a few in my time but I actually learnt something with this one. Thanks a lot
Sean makes me realize how pale most us guitarists are
Thanks for this video. With the cost of gas now, I don't like driving around aimlessly. I gotta know where I'm going, even if it doesn't sound as good. lol
Drive on!
QUESTION. If looks like when you play the F chord, you're using a barre chord but not playing the high E string. Is that correct?
Yup, I like leaving the high E open a lot. Makes it technically a major7 chord, but only if I play that string. Easier, too.
what's that strange buzz when you play?
A little toasted are we……?
This put a better perspective on finding your way creatively thru the fret board. Knowing the notes helps tremendously but also playing them In your own swag makes it cool and personal. This is a great video and Good analogy. For me I started learning the guitar thru elementary habits, but this video helps me be more creative while understanding certain note riffs and chord sounds, and how they can sound in succession.
Very practical lesson, but the title of it vastly underestimates my ability to forget things.
Hi Sean, I'm not really intermediate yet but love your lessons and trying to hold on to your coat tails.
thank you so much pewdipie!!
That Supro amp sounds great! Black Magik? Amulet?
Black Magik!
Yeah, I just know where I need to go on the fretboard. Like the main stuff . The rest all kinda ties together all over. Play baby play & you will grow. I'll have another please. Great tips Sean - tnx.
What I really like about this video is that you’re teaching theory without ever mentioning theory. You played G Dorian over the m7 chords and made no reference to modes. Nice work. Very accessible to all types of player, which is what teaching is all about.
Who plays in the key of F?
Dude you sound a little intoxicated?
I was gonna ask how much he was smoking. He was all over the place? I'm not sure how all these people just learned the Rosetta stone from him.
Killer video, very good teacher.
Thank you!
Thanks, this is really good. I was creating interesting sounds straight away. I’m going to show my daughter this lesson.
Thanks. Great ‘road map’ well presented. It’s always good to know where the shortcuts are!
trickster treachery Sean. Do a video on how you would skirt copyright infringement making a great lead solo from a great lead solo. Must sound original.
Baaahh!
As a man, the only places you need to know how to get to are the coffee shop, the mani-pedi place and a home decor shop…
Got me with that one too😅😅
mans need to drive his girl around innit
Could be your best lesson yet Sean. Thanks for sharing.
Can you possibly do a follow up video where you relate this "drive by" lesson to the scales and/or notes that are being played to give it some context? In any case, thanks for this "not roadmap'.
Great lesson! I love your metaphors.
OMG ... Thank you so much for this awesome easy to follow video!!!! This is how I learn .. other ways are too complex. So grateful!
Idk man. When you're new to a place, it's pretty helpful to have a map. That being said, this is the very reason that songs are not scales. Maybe I'm just a naturally intuitive player, but it was always obvious to me that songs aren't written by strict guidelines, but rather scales are just convenient patterns to follow, kind of like a trail. Nothing wrong with off roading, but here's the spots most people like to visit. A fun exercise for me is to just noodle around and make stuff up then try to figure out the closest key signature it would "fit." I guess on your analogy, it would be going to Starbucks then looking at a map cause you're curious which road you took
Absolutely 😄👍
I’m on my Third New Holland Dragon’s Milk bourbon barrel aged stout and this lesson is the bomb. Thanks Sean!
11% BABY! WOOHOO. SUCH A TASTY STOUT
ty so much for this lesson. I now believe I am on track with what I have been playing. Liked
happy to help!
Sean, what brand and model of guitar are you playing in this video? It looks to have a lovely ebony board, and has awesome tone.
Thanks for your instructional video. I rather enjoyed this one. Peace.. Joe
Thanks for the latest guitar lesson. As always, appreciated!!
Great video bro! So I took the time to write Hallmark another message about getting you in a Christmas movie 🎄 🎸 we can make this happen!
My guy! Fingers crossed!!
thanks for this! I've been using this same mental framework for a while and it's great to encounter it in such a neat package "in the wild". This way of thinking is especially good for dipping one's toes into the modes.
Happy to help!
.....Sounds like S.D. dun got into Grampa's cellar, & drunk his corn squeezin's.
The coffee shop.... yeah okay.
" I don't know how to drive down the roads." ... But I know how to crush up 3 xanax and become Doing the sub.

Immediately I understood this concept good stuff
appreciate it 💯 👍👏
That scale is borrowed from G Dorian. The dudes spot on though play that pattern 1 wholetone above most maj7 chords and you'll be fine unless they have less common extensions like #11's b9's and all that Jazz (pun intended)
If you are serious you play enough and long enough you absorb that map without setting aside time to study that "map". This is an amateur attitude. And he plays that way. Not smooth or even tempo. Very poor technique.
Great lesson.!! Subscribed!
I always get lost too by the way. Then i just drive around until i recognize somethig.
U drunk¿
After reading other reviews I feel like I need to check it out again. Sometimes you speed rap and it’s hard to follow. ( for me) apparently everyone else follows along with no problem. Great lesson Sean , I guess
Tell me you've been drinking with out telling me you've been drinking. lol
Thank you for calling them "7 chords" and not "7th chords."
Really great how you explained how you can take any chord, and then go two frets up from the root note. Made a ton of sense, very easy to follow in the way you counted it out. But I wish when you started talking about going the OTHER direction and moving down?? You completely lost me, you didn't do any of that simple counting, I understood the overall concept, but you sped right past all the landmarks and I didn't get a good look at any of them. are your fingers on 4th or 3rd or 5th frets for some of those notes? I have no idea! sounded great but you might as well have put a black square on the video over your hands because I honestly did not get much information out of it. Could you please explain going down from the root note in the same simple and straight forward manner you explained going up? Its clearly a simple concept, but I couldn't replicate it without a ton of guess work, which defeats the purpose.
Brilliant. Brilliant..brilliant. Got a whole new perception and it’s opened up soooo many possibilities.. BTW, also got new insights to tunes like Breezin’ ( which I kept getting reminded of throughout the lesson ) and Larry Carlton’s Room 335. Thanks.
Guy asked me where a nearby road was in my neighborhood. I said sorry I didn't know. Turned out the street name sign was on a house just 30 yards from my house. To me that road is simply the way to the nearest park,that avoids heavy traffic.
Great job sir, you’re right about this and you’re good, funny too. Ha, don’t trust those people that know it all too well,,, lol. Good day sir, and thanks for the straight down to it knowledge. 👏👏👏👏.
Happy to help out!
Great , most player get lost when making leads to complicated . Play thru the chord . Skip the bad patterns that you've memmorized repeating the same mistakes over and over again . That was my problem . Good lesson .
Wait. In whatever town you live in, you only need to know how to get to the coffee shop and the mani/pedi shop? That's some divergence, right there.
a bit over my head... i'll get there>
But why do you guys look like you're laying your fingers with little angle, looking like you'e touching a ton of strings and i have to work hard to get the TIPS of my fingers on a string without touching others? is this 'time' that changes this?
Nice tut !
Dang, the Phenyx Pro PTG-12 UHF Wireless like you have is currently sold out - boo, it looks cool.
I thought three notes back from the root note placed you in the major pentatonic pattern shape (not minor pentatonic)?
Should include tabs/music on the screen...just too annoying to try and keep up with verbal description.
Very informative tutorial
Thanks for all you give
So well presented.
I guess if you like that tablature elevator Style but I like rockabilly rock and roll Rocky and the hurricanes LOL
Don't trust people who can remember directions.... Not the best advice to give a guitarist methinks.
