I'm a GMM member & these free TH-cam videos are very helpful as well. I recommend becoming a member, it's great course for those who either want to just pick up a guitar & wow some friends all the way up to becoming the musician you have dreamed of. Even if you're over 50, this course is very easy to follow & it's all on you to practice at least 10 minutes a day & you'll be blown away what a month of learning & practicing, mental & physical daily learning will accelerate you farther than you can imagine
After a brush with death this summer, I realized life's too short to postpone pursuing your passions. At 43 years old, I finally picked up the guitar, an instrument I'd always longed to play. Starting from scratch, I began watching your videos regularly. My playing and health is getting better every day. It's never too late to chase a dream!! Keep the videos coming.
Same for me, I started at 43 I’m 51 now and shredding, don’t put your guitar in it’s case ( outa sight outa mind ) practice everyday and eventually there’s nothing you won’t be able to play, I’m looking at satriani songs these days, I never thought I’d ever be able to play, just keep pushing cause you get out what you put in
Female in my 30's and bought my first electric guitar 🎸 knowing absolutely nothing about how to play it 😅 But I don't mind, I'm watching a lot of videos, trying not to pick up bad habits, doing it the right way and thoroughly enjoying the process 🤗 I hope a year from now I've some decent guitar skills, I'm trying to practice every day but at least get 5 times a week in 😉✌️
I’m 70 yrs young and finally some body showed me what I’ve been waiting on. You have the camera on your right hand and show in detail your left hand. Now finally I can put this together. ( slow but sure). Thanks Eddie glad I found you.
I'm 68 and relarning the guitar after 51 years. I promised myself that I would learn "The Right Way". Through the serendipitous intervention of the Rock Gods, I'm taking weekly lessons with a bona fide touring rock star whom I shouldn't mention in an open forum. While she's on tour in Europe, I supplement my practice with sources like Guitar Mastery Method and it has proven to be INVALUABLE. The instruction style is easy to follow, makes sense, and I'm learning theory as a bonus. Thank you 10,000,000 times over for these lessons!
Your methods are killer and you expresse them in a very understandable way . I am 62yrs and have been playing since I was a teenager and it's gave me new ways to put things together. Thanks ! Great Videos .
I can't believe this is so easy, especially when I play the guitar upside down and watching you make it seem so simple. I followed a lot of people trying to figure out what they were playing because I have to reverse everything common but you made it so simple. I'll be eternally grateful
Hello from Canada, thank you for your way to understand lessons, I’m 52 and you’re the first instructor I’ve had or watched that talks like a down to earth guy and not a stuck band member just trying to make cash. Keep up the great work🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Super valuable lesson. Keeping it simple and building off of 2 chords all over the fretboard is a great exercise. Then when you've got that....3 chords....and you're off and running....
I'm a 65-year-old self-taught guitarist and playing for 23 years these are the best learning lessons on how to really play guitar I don't mean songs but playing little licks that will help you sound good You've helped my playing incredibly since I found you station here I love it and you're a great player and a great teacher thank you
Tony Iommi uses a lot of triads and diads. He bases a lot of his stuff off of the blues scale, which is essentially a minor pentatonic with the added flattened 5th. I admired him growing up and tried to emulate him. Then when I was older and started learning the blues and the pentatonic scale I just naturally threw those diads and triads in. I was already doing slides. I learned a lot watching and listening to Tony Iommi play.
You are an unbelievable find. Wanted to expand my guitar playing which was frozen in time for 40 years as I was lead singing and rhythm guitar through the ages of ages. No more band scouring TH-cam and found your lessons. Then I see the beads about your wrist and a three bar cross!! I was baptized into orthodoxy just two years ago at the age of 63! Ty ty ty Blessings to you and all those close to you. Subscribed. joshua
I know this comment is gonna get lost at the bottom, but man...I really learned something here. I always wondered how to connect chords like that and you explained it in a way that I just got it. I'm a beginner, playing about 6 months now, but I was just playing stuff others had made, imitating, if you will. I just tried it, and realised I wasn't copying you, I was just making music. It wasn't great, but it was mine, just coming out of my hands. Awesome video man!
Thankyou so much Eddyville, lol. You are still my #1 instructor bud. You n Steve Stine got me hooked. I only played bass all my life til lockdown shitshow. That's when I came across you folks n haven't looked back since. Love the work and passion that you so naturally convey. Keep up th xcellent work mang!!
Dang man! THANK YOU! I had the tools, just needed to know where to put them to work! Even my wife was like, damn that sounds good. She has NEVER said that, and ive been noodling off and on for decades.
Thank you..ive been teaching myself for 3 yrs and have been in a rutt, not in a band just self pleasure, learning songs is great but not rewarding i forget it if time goes by..then i found this lesson and explored your work..man i think you have giving me new wings to play by myself and feel great about usefull knowledge i can make part of my dna, as you say,...i may even dabble w soloing ,you make it doable...mahalo
You are a great teacher!!! Most others cannot explain and communicate in ways others can comprehend from their uninformed perspective so you are doing a very great job explaining!!🥰
Great video. Chords and lead lines have always had a giant barrier between them that I couldn't connect. I'm going to have to watch this like four more times, but this is the missing piece I've needed.
Hello from Germany's north-sea coast... while summer prepared to its end, I felt over your fantastic opportunity playing the right blues sound what I was looking over dozens of years for. In fact, less is mostly more. I am aware of triads, but couldn't connect them yet to its right sounding. Thank you for your simplicity of explications. Well done ! 👍
Great lesson. After years of playing scales and chords trying to connect major and minor. Coming up with new chords. This lesson fills in the gaps to allow for smooth transitions. Thank you.
I've been wanting to play over chords forever now. I tired the caged system and it didn't help like I hope it would. But then I stumbled upon this video and now I'm stating to sound the way I always wanted. One of my biggest goals is to become a really good power trio guitar player and you open up the door thanks so much Steven
What a great lesson! Thank you very much. I've come out of it with a feeling like when I first saw the image in an autostereogram. The lesson just made a bunch of things I knew independently from each other connect together. Cheers!
I've been changed by the Both of you and there's was a point that I Never expected to actually happen and I have spent more than 20 year's being average. But out of my daily playing and I am talking 5-7 hrs every day and going through many of Eddie's videos and jumped into a bit more extreme with Charlie. But my point is that I broke through a barrier that I didn't know existed but it most certainly does exist. I can simply say this go back to before you started playing and start over in a different way, as a student not learning as I did was mostly zero tech. The new people who want to change their lives you've got it made by leaps and bounds, compared to the way it was done in the 70s,80s, and even into the 90s. I am still playing everyday and after seeing this video you gave me an idea...Take care never give up the outcome of your time will come back to you 10 fold if not more...🎸
Awesone guitar. I have a '66 335 and a 2000-something Heritage 555 (a blinged out model of their 335 equivalent). I am quite partial to semi-hollow bodies. Good video too. I liked. Thank you.
Sometimes after I’m warmed up I do it by accident and I feel rad. My setup well exceeds my ability so when I do something right it sounds insane. Guitar is fun 😊
Great job on this! The focus on the 1/4 chords and single notes, in 3 positions is a complete lesson,and though been playing for years I learned a "new" grove. Like to see another just like this one, but minor! Keep up the good work!
Hey Eddie - this is just genius! The right lesson at the right time for my playing. If I can get this down, it will enable me to just pick up the guitar and play something interesting. Thank you! Sinclair (U.K.)
Great video, I definitely got something out of this thank you 🙏. I’ve been noodling for 40 + years, but recently started taking it more seriously lately when my daughter got an IRIG HD 2 and showed me how to use it with GarageBand and such. I’m actually making songs now, and this knowledge you shared is so appreciated. Btw, I would have just kept in listening if you had kept on playing when you said you had to just stop.
Great lesson mate! Opened my eyes to whole new way of attacking the fretboard - keep up the great work mate! I look forward to checking out more of your lessons!!!

Regardless of whether you are over 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 OR EVEN 80! .... practice makes perfect.
Me too, I'm 63.

I’m 49 I satisfy piano and guitar two years ago wish I would’ve started forty years ago
I’m 70 yrs young and finally some body showed me what I’ve been waiting on. You have the camera on your right hand and show in detail your left hand. Now finally I can put this together. ( slow but sure). Thanks Eddie glad I found you.
You got me by a year-69 and still learning every day 🎸
72 here and wishing I had these videos 50 years ago
I also
I'm 69 and I was too old too learn playing the guitar.

This is an unbelievably good lesson. 16 minutes of actual value added instruction. Outstanding.
Wholeheartedly, agree!
Exactly... INTELLIGENT lesson
Not just learning a song
Super valuable lesson. Keeping it simple and building off of 2 chords all over the fretboard is a great exercise. Then when you've got that....3 chords....and you're off and running....

Here we have a real teacher!!! Now I can say that I´m the best guitarist in my house. Great lesson!!
Really excellent. He seems not to have forgotten that he too was a beginner. Excellent teaching skills. Thank you.

We still read every comment Joshua, this is awesome to hear and the exact reason we make these videos. Thank you for sharing this win!
This is great for an intermediate player like myself. Great information without getting bogged down in theory. Thanks!
Man, your lessons come naturally.

Thank you sir first video I’ve found to break this down in a way I can understand. Years of searching
Great video. Chords and lead lines have always had a giant barrier between them that I couldn't connect. I'm going to have to watch this like four more times, but this is the missing piece I've needed.
You're one of the best on here, you leave people with the enthusiasm to give it a go. You're a friendly guy too. Thanks for helping us.

Very nice exercise while being alone and spend hours to explore. Thanks Eddie. Cheers from Indonesia.
Never get tired of listening , creative playing !!
I am not overstating that this had to be the most valuable video lesson I ever saw.
Thank you Guitar God's for people like this guy for the helpful tips
Great lesson. After years of playing scales and chords trying to connect major and minor. Coming up with new chords. This lesson fills in the gaps to allow for smooth transitions. Thank you.

Best lessons are like this: well presented, and easily implemented. Getting my guitar now to try this.
I'm going to do this every day for 2 weeks to get into the habit then make this a part of my learning :)
As always Eddie, you knocked it out of the park. Awesome lesson. Thanks!
Amazing lesson ❤
You sir.....are one of the best guitar teacher's i've ever come across. It's a very hard skill to simplify complex guitar patterns. Thank you
that was the best short guitar lesson I have ever heard - I tried it and got it immediately - fantastic - i
I subscribed right away
Omg!!! I've been waiting for this advice for 40 years..thank you so much
Cool! Been playing for decades and appreciate the new thoughts. Tastier than what I do.
Superb!!! You, sir, are simply the best guitar teacher on YT.
You always make learning feel smooth and easy.
Great, clear and concise step by step lesson. Thanks Eddy
Eddie, what an excellent tutorial. It has opened up a whole new range of possiblitlies for 'solo' soloing.
Dude. Yup. Finally! Thanks.
What a great lesson! Thank you very much. I've come out of it with a feeling like when I first saw the image in an autostereogram. The lesson just made a bunch of things I knew independently from each other connect together. Cheers!
Love this. I've picked up guitar again after a long break....I know all the components of this... But the combo is awesome
Cool info, man - just right for my level.
What I've een looking for.
Excellent lesson - Thank you & Cheers from Seattle!

Very helpful, very simple but sometimes less is more, I enjoyed watching this and making it part of my blues licks repertoire. Thanks!!
Bro amazing video, I really learned a lot keep making this vids brother God Bless You ❤✝️
Sometimes after I’m warmed up I do it by accident and I feel rad. My setup well exceeds my ability so when I do something right it sounds insane. Guitar is fun 😊
Wonderful lesson. I’ve been looking for this. I love how you call them “neighborhoods”. That helped things click
TY
This is a great lesson!
Great job on this!
The focus on the 1/4
chords and single notes,
in 3 positions is a complete
lesson,and though been playing
for years I learned a "new" grove.
Like to see another just like this one,
but minor!
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the great lesson! Cool!
Love this blues lesson.
Love how you break down these inversions. Allows me to up my rhythm and soloing game. Thanks!
