- Here's a little insight into a huge concrete approach I use in teaching my lessons all the time. This totally changed my life on the guitar. Learning the foundation and framework of chords is DIRECTLY RELATED to playing any sort of lead guitar. Enjoy!

Don't worry about dropping names as in guitar world you are a name yourself and deservedly so.
Thanks for sharing with us all.
Nice to see you thriving Guthrie! Congrats on your sobriety and new found energy. You are playing great as always!
I took a private lesson a couple of weeks ago and it really opened a lot of doors. It was cool to talk directly to one of the great players and get questions answered. Well worth it . Zoom also allows editing so I was able to make the entire lesson into sections and I can go back and review the material.
@Michael Ploucha well said. I took a private lesson with GT last week and it was the best money I have ever spent! Too bad I was a little star struck and my brain froze along with my hand. Ughh.. o well- I have the recording and have been working on it daily since. Hopefully I can get the stuff down quick enough to get a second lesson while they’re hopefully still available! So cool to talk directly to one of the best guitarist in the world IMO! Just a great guy, and I feel so blessed that I was able to do the PL.
Mr Guthrie, your excitement and energy is contagious, thanks for the good vibes. And thank you for keeping us coming back to the basics. Its so easy to get caught up in so much other things when it comes to guitar playing, especially in TH-cam. Chords, chords, chords. In some ways, i think we could all be better lead players if we were really good rhythm players, cause you've got to know your chords.
Thanks Guthrie. You’re killing it man , best of luck. You look great, congrats on your health journey
Thanks for another great lesson Guthrie! There's another great benefit of learning chords that I don't really hear people talk about and that's the fact that learning new chords helps you in your creativity and songwriting.
A while back I did a video talking about this idea but in short, it seems like every time I learn a new chord and get it "into" my fingers, I end up writing a new song with it. It just opens up a new realm for me.
Congratulations on the 47 days of sobriety! I wish you many more in good health and happiness!
You are a champion Guthrie and find your positivity and lessons awesome
Guthrie. You always touch on the info that is needed to help us lesser mortals to become more fluid in our play. Once agin - Thank you. Tony
That 335 is beautiful.
YOU are a FANTASTIC guitar teacher (and player, of course)….thank you so very much for your clear insights on theory and fretboard freedom. You my friend (If I may be so bold) are getting me unstuck after so many years of just noodling around. Keep it up!!!
Such an amazing talent. And what a great character you have man. A true inspiration. Thanks for all the advice! Love from the U.K brother
Guthrie you’ve the one who really inspired me on my journey to finally learn this necessary information to help me become the player I want to be. I’ve been playing officially for almost 10 years now. Thanks for the inspiration and knowledge.
That 335 sounds amazing . Well done Guthrie , we don't need alcohol it's bad . I quit 6 years ago .
Thanks, Guthrie. I've been playing for 50 years as a novice, and really started focusing on CAGED over the last year. What a difference a day makes! Wish I'd've had someone to guide me in the early days, but you know, water under the bridge! So glad you're here to help the younger players get a handle on the right things to focus on in their formative years. Keep it up; it's leaders like you that help insure the guitar lives on as a viable musical tool. Much appreciated, my friend!
Well said @Timothy Johnson! I’ve been a novice for about 36 years, and just learning the caged system this past year is so helpful. Wish we had TH-cam in the 80’s ha! Water under the bridge is right. Never too late to learn this stuff. Now I can practice with intentionally and hopefully take things to another level.
More fantastic info man thanks and CONGRATS ON THE BOOZE FREE TIME MAN that’s great!!
Dude you're looking fit and well!! Congrats!!
You are such a monster player, love watching you play
Love your videos and amazing insight!
Thank you for all that you do brother
🔥🎸🔥
Thank you for your videos, honesty and being a real one:)
Thank you!
Your knowledge and playing are sick!!
Hell yeah man! Props to the weight loss and not drinking! Sweets and a little coffee are just fine, way less damage haha. The music is truly what it's all about.
Guthrie, you’re one of those guys that you so admire. You’re too busy making music to realize it!
Discovered you and your playing this year, looking forward to seeing/hearing more, subbed
Bless you brother
Positive vibes all the way!
Love your videos Guthrie!
Thanks bud this has helped me so much !
Dude - you and Tom Bukovac would play music fit for the Gods xx
Thanks man, top work 🙏
I’ve really been enjoying the artistworks course. Can’t wait to hear back in video exchanges
More power to ya !!!
Wow! You have lost weight!! You look great!!! Keep going!! You’re killing it!
Must get my video sent off to you via Artistworks. Thanks again. J.
Greetings from Perdido Key
Hahaha "The Thunder Rolls" ⛈ 🌩 ⚡ ⛈ 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄
Poor ole Garth! That's bad.
"The thundrr rolls" LOL
Guthrie I have not had a drink in several years, I am a working musician and photographer and my life gets better and better everyday since I put the booze away. If you ever want to chat please let me know. Congratulations on the 47 days. Remember, don't count the days, make the days count. All the best
you have escaped the booze trap. well done and stay safe my man
Liken the hat
Learning the fretboard--whichever way clicks for you--is the closest thing to quick, dramatic improvement as it gets on the guitar. Love Guthrie's no BS, straight to the point approach in all his lessons. Way too many "magic fix!!" or "look-how-much theory I know!!" lessons on TH-cam, the perps of which probably account for the thumbs down on this vid.
What is this color your wearing!?
Question....You mentioned the foundation is to learning 4 things....the chord shape, the arpeggios (the 1,3 & 5 of the major scale), the major scale......and the one I'm confused on is where you say also learn the pentatonic.....do you mean the major pentatonic or the minor pentatonic? I ask as when I've seen you very briefly run your fingers over the fretboard and talk about the pentatonic it looks like your playing the flat 3rd in the e -minor shape rather than the 3rd. Thanks
Happy to do a private lesson to dig deeper into these concepts :) Thanks for watching! This is all part of how I make a living.
@@guthrietrappmusic Absolutley. You're a professional and this is your living. Appreciate all the videos you provide, best on youtube.
You look younger Guthrie. Goodonya!
Would be so nice if you could get a mic closer to your mouth. For example a lav mic so we can hear you better
Right on with the tee-totalling! It's a big decision, but a good one. Did it myself. Play way more guitar!
good job man ...my butt(a$$) weighs 159 1/2, I got some work to do
👍
need a lav mic
haha you just wanted to share vibes today not tunes.. cool cool! catch some rays
Still sober my man?
Not as easy as it looks ..
You skinny Bro.
now that youve lost weight. it is time we see
GUTHRIE TRAPS
Get on some steroids and bulk up
Just talk ...
Hey guy if you want to be successful with these videos you need to stop talking so much you’re killing me
Haha 😘
Love your stuff! How did you lose weight? Any particular diet??
Practicing with purpose is something I need to do more of. It is difficult after you have some chops, because it is so easy and fun to put on a backing track and just wail. This is good for my fluidity, but it doesn’t expand my capabilities.
Congrats on being alcohol free. My experience with guys I have known, or know of from Tenessee is that it is a drinking culture. Congrats again.
Totally agree, I'm fairly good at learning new things but I often forget to reiterate the basics such as Guthrie mentions. I'm fine with many scales and know my chords mostly but definitely need to drum in those arpeggios in all of the different locations through the CAGED positions. It's too easy you just play over some backing chords I, IV, V and just noodle or even play a few tunes. I really need to drum home some key points just as I have scales over the years. As you mention it's easy to become mentally lazy.
👍
I wouldn't be the guitar player i am w/o you. You helped give me neck freedom. thank you
You are great for us players who have played awhile, but are stuck (Tim Pierce as well). You’ve made me rethink the guitar neck and to learn to play as a musician. I like how you don’t baby us. I’ve actually become a part time guitar teacher from people just asking, and commenting, “I like what you’re playing…what is that?”
FYI I quit drinking 2+ years ago and for anyone out there…you CAN play in bars and have a ‘drink’ with musician buddies without drinking. I drank hard, but there’s something refreshing walking on stage feeling mentally sharp. Can’t wait for new merch and to make a trip to Nashville soon. Thanks!
Thank you Guthrie for continuing to drill us on this stuff.I love how you know how important it is to learn the right way. You continue to emphasize the same points over and over again. Thank you because now it’s really starting to click❤️🎸🔥🤘🙏
Wow! No alcohol for 47 days!!! That's more impressive than your playing GT! Well, maybe as impressive!
"constellation notes" - I like that
How does this guy only have 44k followers??. I love Guthrie, such a great guy
Looking healthy, playing great, thanks for the insight Guthrie!
You look amazing without the weight on! Look really healthy man!
Thanks for the video and for reinforcing the fundamentals. Huge help. Congratulations on your successes and the incredible connections you’re making. Daryl Hall, Billy Gibbons, and more. Well deserved, I love seeing hard work paying off. 😎🎶🎸
And I think that’s awesome stuff on the no alcohol.
Great information. Is this the same kind of thing you teach on artist works? I was under the impression that was mostly how to play country-oriented guitar. If the concepts you showed here are the same ones I can find on Artist Works, I will sign up.
It absolutely is. It leans toward country but all the fundamentals I’m teaching are applicable to every style of music that I enjoy jazz Country, Blues, Rock, Funk, Fusion, Latin, Bluegrass, singer-songwriter, experimental.. it doesn’t matter. These concepts will get you there. They changed my life, man. Period. Thanks a bunch! GT
EAST…..Nashville Tennessee, beautiful place you live in, im jealous you get to be surrounded by music, musicians, nice weather , i enjoyed your artist works lessons over the last year i learned a lot, cheers from Canada!
GT, looking good and feeling your energy! Are you coming up with new course with what you are talking about here? Great stuff, keep it going!
Dude ask Dennis if he remembers Doug in Austin...The Speak Easy ... Mark throwing up all in Tim's BMW... crazy funny story...
Thanks for the positive vibes and guitar lessons 👍👍👍
Jazz player inna Kountry disguise ... great player!!!!
What a dude! Great lesson and also looking really healthy.
Guthrie, I can't dig your videos any more than I do...thanks for the great attitude and brilliant lessons and tips, keep it coming!!
two years later and i still have not done the work,,,playing like a
'mad fool' rocking the guitar leads
Started your AW lessons thinking I’d do 3 months. Well I enjoyed it and improved so much it’s been over a year and I’m still at it! Can’t recommend it enough.
Looking forward to some merch. Thanks for all you do man. I’ve def learned a lot!
Good luck with your sobriety goals mate 👍
love to see you doing well man!
You the man Guthrie, thanks so much for these lessons.
❤🙏🎸 loving the lessons
Guthrie, you da man. I first saw you on a video with Tommy Emmanuelle, Richard Smith, Bryon Sutton and Pat Bergeson doing Folsom Prison Blues... you killed it. I was very impressed. All of you guys have the goods, I share that video with all my musician friends. I was wondering if you have ever had the opportunity to jam with Billy Strings? I'll keep an eye out for a video with you two someday. Stay Positive my friend, its contagious.
Thanks man! I have jammed with Billy Stings. Right here in East Nashville, TN!
@@guthrietrappmusic I’m here in southern indiana where Michael Cleveland is from. He is another amazing talent. Love what you share. Keep them coming. Time for me to dig around TH-cam and find you jamming with him too. Ps love the positive vibe you have now. Keep it up
@@dougnichols2347 That’s awesome! I love Michael Cleveland. He’s a pal. I played on his last record that won a Grammy 👍😎🎶
Pl post tabs
good for you man. happy for you
Great!
Sure looked interesting, and I would love to "get it" but this was way to fast for me, I appreciate your style, and you are looking great, so keep up the good work, but this lesson went right over my head, and I wish it had not. Looked super important, but I was lost. Congratulations to everybody who "got it" but it weren't me...
It’s not supposed to just click off of these TH-cam videos. They’re meant to introduce the concepts, but to get it in more detail you’ll need to go to artistworks or take private lessons from GT
@@trevormason3825 Well, I understand the concept here, just went too fast for me to get anything out of it, and normally I can spend days picking apart what GT puts out on these...
I was introducing a concept used to really open up the fingerboard. Again, these are meant to draw attention to the education platforms that allow me to make a living. I’d be happy to show you this in detail via a private lesson or check out Artist Works. Thanks for watching!
Great lesson. What you played to outline the E7 chord would've been great as a finger exercise to just do repeatedly until you start to burn the vision of the chord shapes into your brain. I slowed the vid down to 50% speed & figured out just the first 8 notes & made up the rest. It's not exactly what you did here, but I think I cover the same bases of going from the A-shape E chord up to the G-shape E, etc., and then I actually heard a resolution to A in my brain so I ended by sliding to the 3rd of A on the B string at the 14th fret. When I'm done with work for the day I'm gonna do that another 100 times because it's already helping my brain visualize ways to connect between those shapes. I've been playing since the 80's but I still have a real passion for learning more about guitar and your videos are really great. Thanks!
Congratulations on your sobriety. I made the change in 1988 and it was the second best life change I ever made (marrying my wife was #1). It has mad a huge difference. You have made a huge difference in my playing. Thanks again!
SOBER!!
love this $hit. look good bro
