    Michael: I'm not good at saying oh this is the 3rd this is thr 6th
    Also Michael in the reaction videos: This is 4th, now it's 5 and 1, coming back to home

      Lol I was thinking the same thing
      Although I think he’s saying he’s not good at just naming intervals offhand, but in his react videos he’s naming whole chords which I think can be very different. Like if you go from the I chord to the dominant third chord (III 7) that’s super recognizable and dramatic and that’s because the chord itself has its own color/emotion/flavor that clues you in to what chord your dealing with....and I may be good at recognizing that even if I’m not good at recognizing melodic intervals like being able to just *know* when someone plays the 1 note and then the 3rd note
      What I see him doing in his react vids is mostly naming the chord progression and sometimes catching a note just because it’s the obvious chord tone you would want to highlight

    I'm at the point in my guitar journey where I almost understand the concept you are describing but it's juuust out of reach. I think internalizing this and getting it in my fingers is going to be the thing that pushes me to my next level. Fantastic video!

      Me too, I actually really just now am focusing on memorizing all the scales so that I can start to work on this type of practice.
      I think the major and minor pentatonic and knowing where the roots are in all positions and then the respective major/minor pattern

    I got your Udemy lessons a couple years back, and they were just what I needed to get from strumming away, to understanding the guitar and how to get music out of it. Still working on that part! Now I’m loving the Guitargate channel. You are the best teacher on the internet! I 2nd the PRS love

  • @sagig72
    @sagig72 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    One of your best lessons! It's hitting exactly the missing link of how to make sense of melodies, how to 'think melodies' and 'think chords' and not 'think key' or 'think scales'. Great video dude!

  • @robertsmit1894
    @robertsmit1894 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I don't know how often you check comments on your old videos but this one really connected the dots. I have work to do but now I think I have a better course to follow. While you were presenting I was staring at my circle of fifths diagram and it was making more sense. As an FYI I picked up a Circle of Fifths decoder from Noisy Clan and I highly recommend it for people that need help like me connecting the different scale degrees. I can wear my Guitar Gate t-shirt more proudly because I understand it better that before. I hope you are doing well and I will keep an eye out for your next video. Thanks again for being a great teacher.

    @gtsipejr 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Now 3+ years later, I find it hard to believe that you can't recognize what note-tones are being played. When I listen to your reactions, you zero in on 3rd's and flat 7's so fast it makes my head spin. I'm playing piano for 60 years, and am always amazed at how quickly you recognize chord tones so quickly. As a barely intermediate guitar player, your insights are a big help. Playing melody lines is what a lot of piano players have done, and your constantly telling us to learn melodies on guitar, so I like hearing you preaching that. Thank you.

    I've been plying guitar over 40 years and I canT solo to save my life. its like i have a tin ear (not really, but...) I taken tons of privates, nothing. I've spend um-teen hours watching and trying to put into practice different youtube teachers. ALL the big name youtube teachers. Decided to start learning the caged system a month or three ago. know it but cant put it into my playing yet...anyway long way of saying you're the BEST teacher bar none on here. I actually totally get what you're teaching. My biggest problem is hitting the right notes on chord changes. I have kind of a mental block when it comes to really memorizing the fret board notes on the 4th 3rd 2nd strings. this vid makes that a lot easier. You should have millions of views and 100,000s subscribers. THANK YOU

    • @jschoma11
      @jschoma11 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If you have a mental block on the 4th, 3rd and 2nd strings try to think in terms of octaves. If you know your low E notes, they're the same as your 4th string notes up 2 frets and 2 strings down. You can think about the shape of a power chord, or if you know scales where the octave/next root is. The 4th string is already done if you know the 6th.
      While we're rolling along, you can use this to hop from your 5th string to your 3rd string. That all of them now minus the 2nd.
      A single string isn't too bad to just memorize or since we know the E( 1st and 6th) string, the 2nd string is the 5th of the 1st string. So if we play an F on the first fret of the high E, its 5th or C is right above it on the B string. The beauty of it is you might know C is the 5th of F from chord progressions, scale shapes, or studying theory, it doesn't matter where. That little bit of knowledge opens up and next bit and so on.

      @jschoma11 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SD-nj1cy I would say you dont want to be confined to "boxes". Granted, I learned and played the same minor pentatonic shape for years like everyone else does. The "shapes" that will really serve you are the intervals. If I know where my 3rd and 5th degree are, it doesn't matter what the note is named, I'm in key or in the box if you prefer. You can make your own arpeggios, chords, etc.. Being able to navigate is what matters, not being intimately familiar with every street sign along the way.
