How I started to play lead guitar | Easy way to learn the major scale (African guitar lesson)

Let's talk about how I started to play lead guitar and how to become a lead guitarist (first steps). I had to learn scales and to master all the neck of the guitar which is pretty boring but here are a few tips to make it easy.

Greatest teacher and guitar role model of all the time

[@IsaacSariel-English]

Thanks fam' I really appreciate 🙏🏾❤️

[@bwalyakawimbe4579]

You are the best African guitar teacher I have ever seen! I am really enjoying...

[@IsaacSariel-English]

Thank you very much fam’ trynna do my best as you see ☺️🙏🏾❤️

[@MzeewaUjiji]

What African guitar? They mean Congolese guitar, because it is a very specific thing, invented by specific people. You being from Zambia should understand this very well. The people who call Congolese guitar "African guitar" want to be able to go out in the world and claim credit for something that their countries had nothing to do with

[@gawayategulle6272]

Thanks Isaac - this is a very foundational lesson. After decades of guitar playing, I had honestly never addressed myself to THAT "C" chord or formation, where the pinky finger is on the E string (eighth fret). I see the importance of taking time to listen and learn, even when you have been at something for donkey's years. I owe you!!!! Handshake from Kampala.

[@paulandlesson]

A fine tutorial my friend. remembering the words of the great Don Mock your guitar solo will never be any better than your knowledge of guitar chords

[@VivianKalu-c9h]

I ❤ it. My daughter is learning bass but Interested in lead. She loves your play 😊

[@Bantu_]

Very informative lesson. WIthout this information, one might spend many years plateauing and never learn to play lead guitar. Good job man. Much appreciated

[@IsaacSariel-English]

Happy to read that fam' 🥰🙏🏾
I hope to help you even more 💪🏾

[@glenschmidt1892]

I appreciated, this video you show a genuine intent in your instruction of playing guitar Isaic. On a personal note most intructional videos cover off the Pentonic scale patterns which are ok, in this video your capturing the chromatic scale and demonstrating how to progress not only up and down the neck but also incorporating fingering postion of chord changes clearly within the signature key very simple Thank you kindly Issiac

[@johnadera3247]

Best teacher in youtube, you make me feel like I can do it

[@IsaacSariel-English]

Thanks fam’ that’s my goal to encourage you by demistifying the guitar technique 😉

[@Muvingo]

You are good teacher indeed,congrats for your good job...

[@jimaweyo4877]

This was very practical and helpful to me. As an amarture, I would need more of this slow movements to note the actual notes and strings.
Kindly do for me more of how to learn scales easily and how to move them across the fretboard.
Thank you big!

[@edjohn6552]

I have to follow all your lessons. I have finally seen the path to progress beyond strumming.❤

[@Muphupa]

Thank you for this video I am from Zimbabwe / South Africa and have been always wondering what chord shapes the Soukous/Seben guitarists use in the middle of the neck. That concept of playing chords finger by finger while linking the different chord shapes really opened up a new horizon for me.

[@janetujanety5097]

You really a great teacher
This system and ways you explain was how my boss lecture me back years ago

This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "guitar alternate picking" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Ganyatty Guitar Gainify - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my co-worker got cool results with it.

[@mosesorji5939]

MY biggest issue is Identifying the chords for a song.. even if I know the root note. I hope you can make a class on that..

[@Kevinschart]

gotta learn some basic theory.

[@yoVisitante23]

Ear my friend, ear. It can be developed. Try using the bass note, then try major or minor. That is basic. BASSIC
LOL

I just started watching your video today. I have a little bit experience, but not with African music. Now I want to learn to play African music, specifically the solo. Towards the end when you were doing it step by step, I really like it. If you can do even slow motion that will be great.
