Is tim the best? Tone, chops, attitude, gear, production and that refined taste like the hills of Tuscany . Thank the gods for this man
Totally agree
If I could sit down with this man and get instruction for just one day, it would be better than a week with Clapton, McCartney or Page. (And I love them all).
Plus the enjoyment shown in his face when playing 😊
The Rock man was cool. And yeah, the whole Hysteria album was done exclusively through one.
I playing about 35 years ago (though I people only played maybe twenty of them). I started with the Mel Bay books, wildly inaccurate tabs, VHS recorded music videos and poorly worded magazine lessons. To this day I have a friend who plays with the most bizarre and counterproductive picking style, the casualty of an ambiguously worded Eric Johnson hybrid picking article in the early 00's. I don't watch the channel religiously, but every time I do I'm always struck by how good you are at this. I struggle to think of anyone that I've come across that puts everything in such a clear and concise manner. More than once have I found myself realizing just how convoluted my understanding of various things had been, hanging overcomplicated relatively simple concepts. It's a gift.
And you always look like you're exactly where you want to be. 👍
This guy was built for this. Never heard it described as clearly. You rule!
AWESOME!!! Glad I made it...Tim you ROCK!!!
Hello from AZ Tim! This explanation of the caged system demonstrates it with the most clarity that I've ever seen, thanks!
Yes! A-G and C-D
So happy I found your site. I taught beginners and some intermediate guitars from 1971 to about 10 years ago. Now that I am 70, Arthritis has come for a visit and slowing me down. This is the most insightful lesson I have ever witnessed and will be signing up for the master class shortly.
I wish it could have waited until my 70s to visit me. I was convinced my 3 + decade long relationship with the guitar was over when arthritis decided to enter my life in my mid 40s, and perhaps it will end eventually, but ironically for now I've became a much better player. Because I need these super hours long warms-up before I feel like I can play my best stuff, so I end up practicing a lot more. I sure didn't see that coming! But I find NOT playing is what does me in. For now, I can still play Yngwie licks, but my knuckles sure aren't a pretty site. I suspect I will eventually morph into doing more slide stuff. My dad was a consummate pedal steel guitarists and I grew up knowing a lot about it and always thought I would pick it up one day. Perhaps I will finally.

If you'd look at CAGED when starting from the D chord, it becomes obvious how all the 'vanilla' chords will melt from one shape into another. The last fretted note (when playing a 'D shape' it will be your ring finger) will be the first note to fret on the next version of that chord (the C shape). This will always be a thing and it will even include the 'E shape" of the chords.
The music you play in this vid is more tear inducing than teargas. Pure emotion. I need to learn this!
In a resent interview, Vince Gill repeated several times throughout the video that, it's always about serving the song, and everything you'd ever really need to do so, was shared in this lesson. I will be chewing on this lesson for along while. Thank you brother.
Your tone is incredible, both driven and transparent
You are always humble, Tim. It blows me away every time. You're amazing, and a great human being.
Man, this is some amazing stuff. I'm just now picking up guitar for the first time in my life... This is how I want to be able to play. I call this style "rainy day blues". So gorgeous.
I’ve been improvising on Tennessee Whiskey because I found it easier than working with 3 or 4 chord progressions. You put the one string component into it for me & now I can build the double stops & triads on top of that one string. Throw in the D Major just for fun, feel around for a place to drop the E Major & now it’s getting easier to improvise on a 4 chord progression. Thanks.
I love this... I have been saying this to my students for years... I love that you have just legitimized it for me.
I AM FREAKING GLAD SOME ONE SAID IT!!! There are ONLY 3 in C.A.G.E.D system. Funny how long it took. Tim is the only one I have ever seen say this. I knew, but no one ever says it on YT. When I figured it out I began to FLY up and down the fret board
Why didn’t you let the cat out of the bag on TH-cam when you first discovered it?
People need to stop hoarding all the great information
What do you mean? I know scales well and have been playing for a long time but struggle learning arpeggios at this point
Tom Bukovac said the same, at least a few years ago.
Even though I went to Berklee I have been teaching this exact thing for 20 years.I teach CAGED OS with stands for octave shape.Tim is an absolutely teacher and player.
Um, Tomo....
Absolutely beautiful playing. Love the “simple” sound it’s just so soothing
Thanks Tim! I’ve been trying to get more melodic with my solos, now I have another tool to use with this lesson!
Finally somebody talks about this, it is 20 years I am listening people talking about CAGED system and it always makes me smile.If you are thinking CAGED it means you did not get it yet.
Love this lesson Tim! Hope we get to play again soon. It's been ten years. That's long enough,
oh my gosh, so great to hear from you. Hope you are well.
Yes, it's been too long ...
There are many great players out there people want to "play" like, but TIm is a person and a player worth striving to BE LIKE. Its like he brings out the best player in me somehow. Thank you so much Tim.
One thing you and uncle Larry have in common is, you both have fun when you’re playing. That’s what we’re all aiming for. Thanks Tim.
This is absolutely fabulous, Tim. Love the horizontal playing - love it all, really. Many thanks.
What a lovely video. You are so open and honest and I'd say humble. The licks are *SO TASTY* and the guitar is beautifully in tune as you go up the neck. Many thanks.
Seeing all of that equipment in the background makes my mouth water. Oh what I wouldn't give...
Tim I can’t thank you enough for all the tips I’ve learned from you. You are a gentle soul and a pro and in my opinion one of the best musician ever, thank you!
"Finger tucker!" That's hilarious. I'm trying to stop using my little finger due to arthritis in the first joint. It's difficult not to use it but you make it look so easy. Gives me hope!
Omg this is brilliantly explained! Very helpful- thanks Tim! I am trying to get to the heart of CAGED, and this revelation makes a ton of sense where I was like huh?!
Glad it was helpful!
Another great exposition of the simple complexity of guitar theory!
Tim, Great Lesson.....Gave Me A Flash Back of Chelsea Vocational High school In Manhattan. 74,75&76 Where The school had started It;s very First Music Classes And Our TEACHER ARTIE BLOUGH....If I spelled his Name right..... I had been Playing Guitar for About 3 years learning by ear and the 1,000 chords book.... But the Classes introduced the world Of Theory, chord structures....And I'm Still Learning! Thank you for sharing the Knowledge! More To Digest!
been struggling to wrap my head around how to play triads in a meaningful way, and just watching this has already helped. Safe to say, I still need more help :D but its a great start. Tim is a fantastic teacher and highly talented
Hie Tim, I don´t know if somebody has already mentioned before - the "Tab" shown at 2:51 is: 1 - 2 - 3 - b5 - #5 - I think. But your 3 Triad Trick opens another door - thanks for sharing. I love to check your videos, so much to improve my playing. It is unique how you let a few simple notes sing and fly...
With best wishes.
Damn. Another free lesson on this guy’s page… I’m getting ready to buy his course, so I really appreciate watching a couple of these videos so I can see what his teaching style is like before I commit.
This guy is one of the most stellar dudes on the planet. I fucking love him.
That song is beautiful! Such a master guitar player.
Additionally, the E shape corresponds to the F shape. Thanks Tim for your amazing content!
I am blown away every time I watch. It is all over my head but ,I just love watching and listening. Particularly love your "mellow" ones. I discovered that write it down thing at University to remember stuff. Not guitar, languages. Thank you Mr Pierce.
I finally understand what the Mel Bay rhythm chord system is.😊
I love watching others use these complicated methods so beautifully.
I just play music in a highly simplistic way using my trusty pentatonic scales and standard open chords. 😊
The writing thing was interesting - I often forget to take a shopping list I have written when I go out but having written it I usually remember most of it.
Great Tim , I like the way you talk explain and show simple but best unlike others with a lot of words.
THIS Lesson Just Opened the Door And Melded everything I know or attempting to learn
Fantastic. The thing you do so well is that you always show how it’s used to make music. Whether it’s a concept or scale or chord shape, etc. you show how to make it sing.
thank you so much for the comment. I appreciate it.
So good to listen to you play Tim, sweet melodic!!
Great lesson!!! I’m on vacation without a guitar and can’t weight to test out the concept!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
Fantastic lesson!!! Thanks Tim!
Probably the most usefull lesson and advice I never heard since I try to be an honest guitarist ;) Thanx so much!
Tim, you’re so deserving of the kind of praise given by Bukovac! Your work on this channel and your career is a national treasure!
The demonstration at 2:14 on how musical it can be is just like Mike Campbell’s lick during the chorus of Mary Jane’s Last Dance. Lovely!
TIM! Your work on Bat Out of Hell II (BACK INTO HELL) Is some of my favorite guitar work I've ever heard. I wanna say thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone. This is a great video.
Thanks Tim- always enjoy hearing you play and the joy you always bring to that playing!
Tim, “Change” is only one of so many songs you have made that has defined a generation. I graduated high school in 83 you wrote the sound track to my life! Yes the lead to “Change” is great but you have so many more! Thank you for sharing your talent!
I learned Triads and inversions long before I heard of CAGED. I learned to sight read traditional and tabs. Then, "this is A", this is the 7th, 9th, 11th. Then flat 5ths or 9ths etc and augmented and diminished half or whole. Then the modes and tons of classical guitar and blues. Then I drank a bottle of whiskey in my basement and listed to Michael Brecker 😆. That led to more drinking. 😢
Edited to say Tim's a great guitarist and teacher, I watch a lot of his videos. Im not mocking it's just some humor
YES I *do* see the Piercius Major fretboard constellation! 🤣 This one really hits me where I live right now, trying to visualize the chords & chord tones while improvising leads. Been playing for decades but only ventured into lead guitar in the past ~ 3 years, during which I have not-so-coincidentally acquired a few guitars . . . 😘🎸 Thanks, Tim!
You're playing is just so fluid and sweet in its composition, it is no wonder you are so revered, and believe me you have no reason to be humbled by anyone who truly admires your talents.
I've been telling students the five shapes can be really seen as 3 for years (which also makes it easier to do the minors!). Thanks for the small vindication 😅 and all the great things you share!
I started thinking of CAGED as ACE.
that's very cool. What a great idea.
Great master class on triads. Thank you Tim.
Great lesson ! Makes more sense with three shapes .
It seems before I was letting the caged shapes compete with the scale patterns .
Breakthrough for me today . Awesome.
Greetings from South Africa! This is great, thank you.
Your cockpit is impressive! : ) I like this more simplified thought because it it makes fundamental sense... 3 inversions, 3 shapes.
Of all the things in the studio, finding the right chair has become a huge thing keeping me from spending as much time in the saddle.
What are you using?
Tim Pierce, I am NUTS! I was a drummer through 1984, switching to guitar in late high school. Being left handed, I picked up right hand guitars and flipped them over, and I still do (acoustics), while my electrics are left handed but strung reverse, and a few right hand double cutaway. Can you believe I survived playing that way all these years? Haha, me and Doyle Bramhall II, Dick Dale (RIP) and a handful of others. Thanks for all you do for us, Tim! Much Love and Respect - Edgar Bowlin
Thanks for your lessons and advice
I still have my Rockman! Still works great. At the time, thought that was the greatest thing ever invented! I still love the sound of it!
Loved the lesson and can fully grasp the triad theory - where I get lost is when you start playing licks and lead between the triads - I never know where to go
Tim, thanks for putting this out, great info. Suggestion: remind us what guitar, effects, amp and speaker you're using for the video.
I think that you ACE'd this one, Tim!
This is cool Tim. I discovered this a long time ago, and when soloing, find I can evolve solos and melodies to create tension or resolution in interesting ways. Love your work man. If you come to Australia we got to jam.
Tim is a gem. Thanks Tim.
great edition, lots of things to elevate a guitars spectrum ... thank you ...
When I first heard Bon Jovi's runaway as a young dude I could never have imagined hearing and seeing Tim from the all star review play and chat on a phone. Love your playing Tim! Tech rules!
I’m gonna have to watch this a few times. Thank you for putting this together and sharing, very valuable information.
Great stuff Tim! Cheers from sunny Sydney Australia 🇦🇺👋🎸
Thank you Tim! This has been a really educational episode!
Extremely tasteful playing as usual 👍
You're always amazing Tim, grazie. Listening to you play and the advice you give, is one of the best things on the whole web. You make me want to play.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you brother! 🙏 this overview really helps me to use the fretboard in a more musically comprehensive way. Much, much gratitude 🙏
Thanks for putting these pieces together for me. Brilliant lesson!
Thanks, this is a good way to learn. You can check the 6 chords that match best from the Circle of Fifths and then follow the melody by playing notes of your chords just one string at a time first.
TIM, YOU ARE THE MAN! The most awesome explanation of this over exposed theme.
Hello Tim your an inspiration. When I use the entire neck the music magic flows lol. I like simple but dynamic.
Hello from New Zealand Mr P!!!! Great explanation and lesson.. exactly what Ive been looking for!!!!! Thank you so much!!! Bless bless bless 😎✨🙏🕊️👼
Thanks for that. Tim Pierce, you’re the best!
I agree with the 3 shape concept. That's how I always looked at it. It just made more sense to me.
Why does Tim always sound so fresh and masterful in his execution? Because he is a master of simplicity. He's the master of distilling music. He reminds me of Paul McCartney. He knows what counts and what doesn't. The Beatles didn't make their music based on over-complicated ideas, but on what is absolutely necessary for a great song, from A to Z they wrote music with no extraneous stuff and that is what Tim does, he makes solos that are timeless and real like George did. I was listening to a Tim Pierce piece in the grocery store (imagine the US population hearing your music every time they picked up a tenderloin) the other day and was floored by the mastery. Tim is Tarrega in the modern era. And I don't say that about many of these fools out here. Check out Beato's Warren Haynes interview, top quality!!! I've said it more than once Tim is The Class Act in this game and I adore his lessons. From Hendrix to Mayfield to Page to on and on the list goes. Sign up for the Masterclass, you won't be disappointed.
Thanks for mapping this out. It was there the whole time but difficult to see. This really helps.
Reminds me of the solo on Take the last train to Clarksville. Just inversions, I think of F and G.
Very rhythmic. Very catchy. It’s almost a hybrid between a solo and a riff.
I’m loving these changes. Great caged points but I’m a bit distracted waiting for a killer vocal to drop in and compliment this track. Well done Tim!
Tennesee whiskey
Tim, in college jazz band, I had to cram for every exam. It forced me to learn every triad without CAGED. Situations where there are minor triads, the specific inversio s have to be voiced instead of the common CAGED trick of running a pentatonic lick when the chord is minor.
The ascending 4th progressions will beat you into submission and you have to use brute force memorization and repetition.
iii > vi > ii > V > I > IV > viiø
Then drill all the dom7 voicings in ascending 4ths
C7 > F7 > Bb7 > Eb7 > Ab7 > Db7 > Gb7 > B7 > E7 > A7 > D7 > G7
all in the same position!
Grueling stuff, but I'm glad I never did CAGED. It makes sense and is a very helpful way to visualize neck patterns, so I won't dissuade anyone from using it.
Yeah, jazz voicings can be brutal, until you repeat them 1000 times as though Jimmy Bruno is standing over you and cussing constantly.
Oh also, autisticly adding 7ths and the rest of the extention tones is the jazz sound...and further complicates easy pattern visualization systems.
Like learning Morse Code, there's no substitute for just doing it over and over.
What a great video
Thank you Tim 💓
🎶🎸 wow i could feel your humility and gratitude when you gave a shout out to uncle larry for his favorite solo😊so fricken cool
I watched the Beato interview also with buk and gt. Man it was absolutely fabulous. ❤
Awesome info. I'm currently looking at buying a heritage. I love the way yours breaks up on double stops etc. You might of just nailed the coffin shut for me. 🤙
Thanks for the free lessons Tim, From one Pierce to another.
Great lesson! The concepts you presented are the ones that really allowed me to get around on the fretboard. Thanks.
Such a master at flavor on the instrument.
great video Tim
Your comment about the string tension on reverse headstock interests me. I have several guitars but the one I love the most is the headless Hohner GT3 ( cricket bat ). It has double ball end strings and a zero fret. You can bend the hell out of it and it stays in perfect tune. Shame they stopped making them.
This is probably the best guitar lesson on TH-cam 🎶🌟
I had this very argument with a guitar tutor. After years of being "self taught" I paid for a lesson to try and improve my ability and music theory. When he explained the CAGED system I openly observed that D was just C moved up a tone. Also, the E shape moved up becomes F, then F# and then G. He told me I was not a guitarist and all but threw me out (after paying him). There is the open G that we all begin with of course...
I’m really loving my ToneX one. Great video, Tim! I love seeing how other guitarists visualize and utilize the fretboard
64 years playing badly and have lately been trying to make sense of the triads. Well, damn skippy, this is best break down I’ve come across. Just freaking remember your basic chord shapes and apply them to your root notes across and up and down the fret board. This is triads for dummies and I love it.
hi From Sweden! i do love youre playing, and i try to keep up and learn so mutch as i can, and this is soo super melodic.
