Hey everybody! I'm disabled (have cerebral palsy, can't plug in which is a long story in itself) and I just play for myself, but I've been trying these methods since yesterday and I'm already easily picking up on more than I expected to. Don't ever give up!
I'm an old man ,79 in a bit under 3 months. I played guitars for years but always left it then pick it up again and start new. I love finger picking and not crazy about strumming but not many songs I like where strumming is required. Don't worry about being disabled. Just play, strum o to finger pick. You can E mail me anytime. Bob AF2DX
I am stuck as I don't know where to go next, so now I am really floundering. My issue is in transitioning, and after 9 months in I still have major pains (plus I gave myself CTS, along with bad arthritis), but I do, at least, know these chords: A/Am/C/D/E/Em/G I can't find a single instructor I am clicking with, and I am not sure where to go next.
@@generalawareness101 keep at it my freind . Look at the neck as sections of 3 frets . Either fingers on the dots or fingers with dot in between. Learn basic pentonic and fool around with basic improv . Your ear will do the rest..hope this helps.
Thank you, you are a good teacher, I can follow you perfectly. You repeat often that is good. I am 67 and began learning guitar so you see, never to old to learn. Keep on teaching, a lot of people including me are very glad with you.
I teach my students both methods. It's doesn't confuse them but it reinforces how the Guitar is laid out and offers their own benefits to learning the layout of the fretboard
Simple system for me who has practiced every Scale and Mode possible and until now, they’ve sounded like Scales and Modes. Thanks Eddie… I’m 66 and a new Subscriber. I think lol. I’m reasonably fluid already. This will clinch it like my old arthritic fingers
This lesson is caged (because caged is just 'there') but it's wise not to 'think' caged when soloing. Caged is built on octave shapes and visualizing octaves won't scramble your brain as will caged in all it's complexity while soloing. I've been using this for years and use this approach. For soloing this will take you far. For locating triads for rhythm playing and somewhat in soloing I still think caged and it's related barre chords up the neck, each barre chord containing multiple triads. Great lesson. So much to learn.
You know there's a lot of people on here trying to simplify things and actually make it more complicated I've been playing since 94 when I got out of the army and I love guitar it isn't too recently that I started getting better believe it or not but I understood everything you said and it turned on a light for me thank you very much
Eddie its nice to know after 30+ years of playing in bands and just in the past year tryimg to learn more theory that you can definitely teach a old dog new tricks. I find your lessions easy to follow and glad to see you as a part of GMM. Best place I have found to truly learn. Wished I found it when it started. Keep Jamming!
I got to say I'm impressed with the program I feel it already making me a better guitarest and I haven't played in a good min can't wait to start this up thanks Charlie
What a great way to teach the G pentatonic scale!!! I already knew it but it did help add flavor to what I already knew! Guitar Mastery Method is the best way for those Who want to learn playing guitar!
Hi Eddie, those are awesome licks on A minor; from lower extension to position one, then the high extension. That way you always end your licks on root notes. While your pingky always hit the blue notes. Thank you very much for the inspiring lesson. Cheers from Indonesia.
@@samstamos427 @Sam Stamos How does a 3 note system liked CAGED become a 5 note scale? The G shape chord of the CAGED system at the 5th fret 6th string with the root note on the 6th string has the notes A, C# & E which makes it an A major chord. The notes of Am Pentatonic are A, C, D, E & G. In the video it says all the licks are based off the G Pentatonic scale which is G, A, B, D, E. Lick 1 notes: G, A, C, D & D#. Lick 2 notes: A, C, D, D# & E. Closer to Am. Lick 3 notes: C, D, E & G which is closer to Am. As you can see, all these licks only use a maximum of 3 notes of G Pentatonic. A very confusing lesson with what could be considered incorrect information.
@@neilrobinson7615 Neil. The CAGED system is merely a mnemonic device. I didn't really use it myself, rather I just memorized the patterns. Your reference to a 3 note system seems to reflect upon a chord consisting of a triad, thus 3 notes. What the CAGED system does is to try frame "chord shapes" on the fretboard, and to be honest, some people just don't see it. Let's take the "G" pattern for example. With the index finger on all of the strings at the 5th fret, run through the Am pentatonic scale. The pattern appears to form a G chord. And this pattern is movable up and down the fretboard. So move it down so that the index finger is now behind the nut, and you'll see that the pattern resembles a "G" chord in addition to other notes that are not in the triad. And so when you play the E String, you'll play 0 3, A string 0 2, D string 0 2, G string 0 2, B & e strings each 0 3. That pattern is the "G" that's being referenced to in CAGED, and there is actually the E minor pentatonic scale since the root is the open E. And, keeping your hand there, start on the G and run through to the next octaves, that's the is the G major pentatonic scale. All of the other patterns have the same idea. It's the pentatonic pattern, not the triad notes of the chord. Hope this helps. Sam.
@@samstamos427 I understand the CAGED system very well thanks. The root note of the "G" shape chord is the ring finger, not the index. Using the G shape chord with your index finger barring the 5th fret will not include the note A. It is a C chord.
Super Great, l never thought of breaking down the stringa like that to solo, Eddie you taught me alot in your guitar instruction, I'm definetly going to use this method for soloing, Thanks Much, real good instruction and look forward to more.
Yeah I agree I don’t get all the anti-CAGED hate. It’s just a useful way to visualize and use the pentatonic scale and a framework to build other scales adding notes to it. When learning the pentatonic scale, why use some arbitrary "pattern 1 or pattern 2” etc. when you can have a more musically applicable CAGED name for the pattern? Nice lesson, thanks!
There are plenty of players that have no idea what the notes are at all and play by shapes only. The guy that initially taught me could not name a note on the fretboard. Yet he taught himself and could play a lot of songs just like on the records. Pink floyd, cream, almann bros, Amerika, neil young. I presume there are shapes you can use and move just like bar chords.
@@suminshizzles6951 I started the same way: play this pattern at the 5th fret you’re in A move down to the 12th you’re playing in E. Hey here’s a pattern above that one and one below it to add more notes etc. when I learned about the CAGED system though a lightbulb went on. That "pattern 1” or whatever was the G form of CAGED. Whether you want to learn notes or not the notes are there. Because of the way a guitar is tuned (in standard) they are always going to be in the order of the CAGED system. I’m just saying you might as well learn basics in a way that you can build on from the start. The patterns are based on chords so learning one form you have learned a chord shape, the arpeggios in that shape, and the pentatonic scale of it you can move around. Later you learn about the 3rd and how to lower it to make it minor and the idea of relative major/minor relationships that the notes of the G form played in open position or at the 12th fret could be thought of as a G major pentatonic or an E minor pentatonic depending on how you play those same notes. These shapes are already there by the design of the fretboard. You might as well use them to slowly learn bite-sized chunks of music theory.
What an impressive lesson Eddie!, simple but so very effective indeed...I am enrolled in GMM 101 and will be progressing to enroll on the Texas Blues course soon...one thing I would like to ask is could you possibly include your rig settings for each lesson to assist the sounds obtained whilst practicing?
nice sound i like it simple and another way 2 practice and solo it also opens up much more practice with ur pinky i love the sharp major and minor mix it is brain pleasing thank you!!.
Thankyou SO much Eddie! Another awesome lesson. I love everything you put out even though it distracts me from my GMM 101 lessons.....haven't done one for a while!! Ahh well, Charlie doesn't have to know :D :D
Dude, this was a very good video. I was literally just thinking today - I have some cool licks, but how can I connect things. This gave me a very useable method. Thank you. Now I'll go try to apply to little patterns based on a major scale too.
GUITAR MASTERY METHOD IS OUTRAGEOUS !!!! I SHOULD BE OVER TO THE SITE AS I AM A MEMBER; JUST FIND ALL THIS INTRIGUING & I DESPERATELY NEED A REFRESHER!!! LIVE U GUY'S ✌❤👄
Hey there Eddie! Saw you in a Eddie Money video from his house with his boys, Sweet man always loved Eddieman and the band. Good stuff from you as always!!
Hi There. This might be misplaced Q, but I am completely beginner. Have just bought an amplifier and an electric guitar and I search for videos on how to get started. Any recommendations here on the TH-cam?
You and gmm are really good people , Charlie also have a very good way to teach guitar . I play ionian today and have to change my blues from a to d :-) Did something wrong - sorry

Great ideas thanks Eddie, the low, middle and high level for the three pairs of strings made the lesson easier to follow.
Excellent he makes it that you can see what he doing clearly and explaining also.
Great teacher
Finally some way other then caged to work with octaves! I love this & can’t wait to try it! Thanks Ed ✌️

Great technique. Very useful and easy. Great explanation and demo using playing, notation and tab.
This was the second video I saw from your channel and you got my subscription. Very good way to see navigate the fretboard.
BE Guitar. The pattern is the "G" pattern in the CAGED system. Starting at the 5th fret, yes it is A minor, but the pattern is "G".
I thought the CAGED system only shows the 3 chord tones, 1st, 3rd & 5th, not the 5 tones of a Pentatonic scale?
@@neilrobinson7615 They are Pentatonic scale patterns.
