    Nice one , I'm trying to get my head around modes. A good johnny Mnemonic for you is-
    I (Ionian), Don't (Dorian), Punch (Phrygian), Like (Lydian) Muhammed (Mixolydian) A (Aeolian) Li (Locrain), it helps me remember anyway.

Now, after watching this video I feel like I’m on the path to musical fluency.

    Really cool way to think about the modes...I wish I had this shortcut a long time ago, although I have done this pattern swap before with pentatonic, I hadn't thought about the 7 modes this way before...BTW, for anyone who wants to know, the E Locrian pattern in this application would start at the 1st fret *on low E* or an octave higher, with that pattern beginning on the 13th fret...Great video!!!

    Fantastic. For those who bail...stick with it. Play the drone note E perhaps with a looper and listen to the different texture and tones surrounding the E when you play the different E modes. Even hum the scale it makes it easier to understand.

    You put out a modes vid that is the most common sense of explaining the Latin confusion in looking at the whole picture of seeing modes for what they are. Just a different way of driving the guitar that has the same engine and fuel but knowing how to drive accordingly. If that doesn't poetically sound like mode spaghetti.

      Honestly this obsession with modes is only a guitar community thing, and it comes as a result of people thinking that modes are "fretboard patterns". I've said it many times, and I'll continue to say it...most guitar players could completely ignore modes altogether and they will be perfectly fine.
