Firstly, this is the longest write up I have ever seen accompanying a video on You Tube. This is a great lesson & an eye-opener. I just wish I could turn back time to reclaim those decades I've wasted noodling around on my guitar and not getting anywhere. I needed this lesson 40 years ago! Thank you so much for this. This one needs to be viewed over & over to extract all the information you have included. I thought I'd never get out of the rut of being an intermediate player, but now there's light at the end of the tunnel. Keep 'em coming Rusty.
This comment is exciting to read! I like how you said there is light at the end of the tunnel!. Sounds like you know what to work on. Let’s keep working on it. Talk to you soon Pete.👍
Stellar lesson Rusty...........I love all these chord tone targetting tutorials they are so helpful to my playing..........I'm currently learning the triads on all string sets.........just learning major triads I know to make it minor I just flatten the third.......having so much fun with it and starting to sound so melodic..........a big thank you Rusty..............Paul from Ireland 🇮🇪
I really liked reading this comment Paul! You are working on all the right things! I definitely wish I would’ve worked on this stuff early on. And many players blow right by learning the fretboard and the notes in the chords. You are on the right track, my friend! Thanks for checking in and have a great rest of your week.😎
30 seconds into the video I knew what he was about to teach will be a game changer for everyone that doesn't know what he's about give you probably one of the most important lessons he can give a beginner because folks you hear people say I've been playing for 20 or 30 years right so have I but if you were playing or practicing wrong man did you ever waste valuable time. Anyway I heard him open with the biggest regrets and I already knew so if you're just starting or think you know pay attention watch this video over and over.
Lots of young guys want to skip the basics and just play lots of notes fast. They never learn guitar, and most fail. That you're doing this slowly is a gift I hope some get.
You know Rusty, I've been playing a long time, so I don't learn much new stuff from you, however I really appreciate that you help keep me focused on the important stuff, which decreases my time noodling. But mostly I enjoy your vids because you have a delightful teaching style. Informative but never condescending. Wish I'd had your vids decades ago. Thanks, brother. - Jstn
Most of my lessons are beginner, intermediate. But I really appreciate someone of your skill. Checking out my videos. We all could’ve use these videos early on for sure! Thanks so much for checking in Jstn 👍
Thanks! You’re so right about some of us that are stuck. I get frustrated watching people put these lessons to use and I am still struggling after 30 years of trying to understand where to move my fingers. Thank you for breaking it down. Targeting the chord tones is what I need to aim for. I hope I will improve from here.
Thank you so much for this support to my channel!!! I really appreciate it! Yes, continue to learn the fretboard, the notes in the scales and the notes in the chords. Those 3 things will definitely improve your guitar playing. I hope you have a great rest of your week buddy! Have fun and your support means a lot to me 🤛
Good ole teaching us how to fish lesson, Rusty! Love it!! As great as it always is to learn some cool licks to add to our guitar playing vocabulary, it is most vital that we know what and why we're doing it!! Thanks once again, bud!! Jim C.
I think this will fix me! Been stuck for a long time. I knew I was being lazy but there is no way around it...gotta learn the notes in the chord and find them everywhere.
Just do it little by little Sal! Once you start, you will get motivated to keep moving forward. It is very important! Hope you have a great week buddy.👍
Thanks for all your lessons, Rusty. I can vouch for the fact that learning the fretboard notes and the notes of the chords is greatly helpful and really advances ones playing.
Thank you very much for giving us a solid direction what to learn. And most of all, it will be a pleasant journey in our endeavor with guitar. Cheers from Indonesia.
Yes Rusty decades. You're exactly right. Unbelievable that I didn't learn this stuff 25 years ago. I mean it's something I just did after work sit down and noodle with the guitar. But I didn't know where to Noodle lol. Thank you
A left a comment early on that I felt the major scale should be the starting point in learning to play lead - I now recognize there were some pretty significant gaps in my knowledge base and that is what was holding me back, not the fact that I started with the minor pentatonic scale… I have you to thank for opening my eyes - I hate to admit this but I have been playing for 20+ years on a very limited knowledge base, but things are looking up in my guitar world that I cherish so much!
That’s awesome Kevin! Sounds like you know exactly what to work on. There’s so many different ways to approach learning guitar. But we just need to have fun my friend! Thanks a lot for checking out the video and let’s talk soon👍
I look back to my guitar lessons almost 50 years ago. Those teachers all just taught me songs. Then they would say that they can't really teach me any more because they had shown me all their material. They were afraid to teach the really important stuff thinking it would bore me and cause me to quit (ie. Theory, harmonized major scale, Nashville numbers). There are so many crappy guitar teachers. Some were terrific players, but not good communicators. Others were not even good players. I've learned so much more since the arrival of the internet, but it did help to not be a total beginner. I am able to recognize the gold nuggets of information amongst all of the BS. This video my friends is a gold mine. Thanks Rusty!
I love this comment, Michael! Well said! Just taking good information from videos and add it to your playing. I still do that! And I get excited when I learn something new even at my age. Thanks so much for checking out my videos! Have a great weekend buddy.👍
I am amazed, how many players do not know the fretboard. Amazed!!! It’s hard to move forward. If you don’t know what notes you’re playing. Thanks for checking out the video John! Have a great week buddy.👍
Another great lesson! My playing has gotten so much better by learning triads. But knowing each note will take it to another level. Practice Practice Practice
Thanks Rusty for this GREAT lesson. intermediate LvL ,this is typically what i need !! and put Guitar Fretboard Stickers ...that is highly helpful ;) i immediately put it in practice ✌
So many mistakes that people make, me included! I just need a Dean hat to go with my dean V and watch out for the music magic! 🤪 You can never over emphasize using the metronome! Not focusing on rhythm and tone targeting is my downfall 😵 Great lesson as always Rusty! Thank you!
Awesome lesson Rusty, getting together all the pieces of fretboard puzzle and apply good timing rhythm and we can get awesome results. Also patience needed ;-)
Hey Karen! I think playing by ear is good, but we still should know the names of the notes we are hitting. I think most of us are guilty of that, because we just want to play music right away! Always appreciate your visit. Talk to you soon. Thanks.❤️
Hi Rusty. Great learning tool, a little Rusty in the tool box. Any chance you could give us some of the Country licks and how to add them to your playing. Charlie
Hi Rusty I'm an 74 year late bloomer who has no idea how to text or has the equipment to do it. Would like something like th-cam.com/video/cRqQjQOms50/w-d-xo.html Charlie
I was always overwhelmed with the fact that there are 130+ notes and I figured learning them was impossible. Then one day I decided to just learn where the B&F notes were and holy crap, there’s a pattern to where the notes are all over the fret board. Still learning, but that discovery put me on a different learning road.
I like that story! I think we all make it harder than it Hass to be. There is only 12 notes on the guitar that repeat 130 times. Yeah for me just starting in the middle of the fretboard where I play the most. Learning that area first and expanding from there. Thanks a lot for the comment and have a great week I know.👌 text
There are only the notes A through G and a few notes in between. Don't let them intimidate you. That's why when people want me to teach them guitar, I give them a few basic piano lessons first. Saves a ton of time with a little basic theory first.
Hi rusty this lesson is paramount fantastic way of learning to master the fretboard your spot on about playing scales with out knowing the notes you were playing that certainly was me but thanks to you sir I'm starting to learn the note in the chords all I can say is a big thank you 😊
All what you play sounds gorgeous 😢. I learn every day where the notes are on the fretboard but I don't know what are the 3 notes of a A chord, or D, or..... Im 64 and I need a little more time 🙄🙄🙄
Hi Rusty, thank you. I am currently learning the notes and have made it to the 7th fret . I am not sure if I can retain all of that! I have been playing most of my life, mostly rhythm. Your instruction has helped me very much. I am going to guitar center to buy a looper,drum pedal and would like to know what you recommend. I am spending 2 to 3 hours a day practicing, trying to learn how to play lead and I’m tired of playing with backing tracks! Please let me know as soon as possible what you think would be a good pedal for me. Keep up the good work! Thanks again. I am approaching 63 years old and am not sure I can do this but I am going to give it my best effort! Rod Applegate
Sounds like you’re working on the right things Rod! I have the TC electronics Ditto 2x looper pedal and I love it! But there are different models and also boss make some great looper and drum pedals. I would search them out on TH-cam. You will get a lot of information. Sounds like you’re having fun with that guitar man! I appreciate your comment. Talk to you soon.👍
What's the best way to use major and minor pentatonic what's the difference between them is it three frets they're the same pattern but three Frets different correct or not
The simplest way is to use the minor pentatonic over minor chords, and the major pentatonic over major chords. But you can definitely mix the two together in more of a blues that contains seventh or ninth chords. And the positions are three frets apart yes. I have many videos on how to use the pentatonic scales along with many other teachers on TH-cam. Happy jamming. Thanks David 👍
Not trusting my ears - using tab too much. BTW how about lessons based on Midnight Blues (Snowy White), Blues Force (Larry Carlton/Fourplay) and Can't You See (MTB). Many thanks, Andy
Why can i play and predict songs without knowing what I play?? I envy you. You can put names on your notes... I can't. What's your trick? Whenever someone plays a bad note, I've got a headache and can't listen... Make a video about feeling music. Thanks
You can definitely have fun playing the guitar with out knowing what notes you’re playing the progress is slow. Many players just feel it, but they at least know the basic structure of the fretboard. Thanks. Have fun bro 😎 Catch you later 👍
Wait wait wait 1:19 you can use major chord tones (triads) and use then with Minor pentatonic? It doesn’t have to be major pentatonic? I did not know this,,,,,😢
You absolutely can! Blues players have been doing this for decades. Looking at major triads within the minor pentatonic scale is a great way to sound connected and bluesy at the same time. Thanks so much for checking out the video. Have a great Sunday.🙏
Make sure you are arching your fingers. Don’t lay your fingers in a flat position. Have your finger nails facing the fretboard not up (facing you). Thanks for watching! Happy Sunday 🙏
Love your channel!! Clearly you are an accomplished player and a good teacher! I’m a beginner guitar player and wanted to ask you if there’s a more concrete video on how to learn what you’ve talked about in this video? I was literary talking to my wife about this yesterday!! 😅
Many of my videos, discuss this topic! But my lessons are geared for intermediate players! But these are things that you should be starting to learn as a beginner! Thanks a lot for checking out my lessons. Talk to you soon.👍

Actually, not buying Bitcoin for $1 a share would be my biggest mistake but not mastering the fretboard would be a close second. 😂
I really like this analogy!!! That is how important learning the fretboard is! A lot of us neglected it early on and regret it! Thanks so much for this comment Neil! Keep rockin buddy👌

I just wish I could turn back time to reclaim those decades I've wasted noodling around on my guitar and not getting anywhere. I needed this lesson 40 years ago! Thank you so much for this.

Another great lesson . With my memory not good this is a great way to
learn one note at a time and calling out the note while i hit them.
Thanks Rusty
30 seconds into the video I knew what he was about to teach will be a game changer for everyone that doesn't know what he's about give you probably one of the most important lessons he can give a beginner because folks you hear people say I've been playing for 20 or 30 years right so have I but if you were playing or practicing wrong man did you ever waste valuable time.

Great lesson Rusty. And I love that lava lamp, goes perfect with that Strat and it brings back memories from the ‘60’s!
Yes, I brought the lava lamp back out! I love it! Thanks so much for dropping off the lesson Craig! Talk to you soon👍

You absolutely can! Blues players have been doing this for decades. Looking at major triads within the minor pentatonic scale is a great way to sound connected and bluesy at the same time. Thanks so much for checking out the video. Have a great Sunday.🙏

Thanks, John👌
🤘😁🎸
Thanks Rod!👍
When I do bends, the string above the one I'm bending keeps getting caught under my fingernails. What am I doing wrong?
Make sure you are arching your fingers. Don’t lay your fingers in a flat position. Have your finger nails facing the fretboard not up (facing you). Thanks for watching! Happy Sunday 🙏
Might I have heard you on the radio?
That wasn’t me! But thanks for checking out the video😎

Love your channel!! Clearly you are an accomplished player and a good teacher!
I’m a beginner guitar player and wanted to ask you if there’s a more concrete video on how to learn what you’ve talked about in this video?
I was literary talking to my wife about this yesterday!! 😅
Many of my videos, discuss this topic! But my lessons are geared for intermediate players! But these are things that you should be starting to learn as a beginner! Thanks a lot for checking out my lessons. Talk to you soon.👍
Thank you much for the reply Rusty! Love your playing style!!
