This makes me want to give up guitar , but I've been playing and jamming for forty years without knowing this crap . So I'll just play away ignorantly without knowing this ridiculously difficult stuff

The best video on key and scale i have seen in last 20 years I always wonder how some people instantly tell the scale of the song and i am not able to do that . I thought don't have musical sense thankyou so much brother

@josephgonzalez9522 Күн бұрын
I gave the shapes names. 1 =G shape, 2 = E shape, 3=D shape, 4=C shape and 5=A shape. It spells CAGED if you start on 4 so I never get lost. If that make sense.
@Samjamguitar
@Samjamguitar Күн бұрын
That's a great way to visualize any 5 position system. However where CAGED is concerned, pattern 1 is always tied to the E shape... the correct order of CAGED is actually EDCAG. watch my CAGED series, which goes into this in more depth. This way every scale chord arpeggio etc all lines up.

Thanks, I will watch it. Yeah G Shape is position 5 but I memorise it as position 1 and it all fell into place that way. I don’t look at them as positions but as G shape etc. I never get lost anymore and improvise all over the neck with ease. I’m too old to relearn lol … Position 1 is the start of the minor and Position 2 is the start of the major, if that makes sense. Seems to work for me. Thanks for your reply. Your videos are outstanding and very much appreciated!

How do I use these shakes in different keys? Say D minor all the way in the 10th fret. All that empty space behind it confuses me
@Samjamguitar
@Samjamguitar 2 күн бұрын
You have to think of it as a circle of positions...or better yet a conveyor belt. Position 5 joins back up with position 1. So, in the key of Dminor, you could travel backwards through each position until you reach the nut or upwards until you run out of fretboard.

@Shred_Master no problem! It's best at this stage to go through the process of learning each position and using them as described in the video! Also check out my LEAD guitar playlist, this will walk you through each position in isolation before moving on to the next! In these videos I also discuss how they fit together/changing keys and also directly address the issue you had... highly recommend going through each one by one👌

I think the genius behind this video is the fact you're teaching theory while giving us a musical example of how to actually use the concept in practice. I will forever remember that reggae arpeggio counterpart in both E and A strings. Killer.

3:29 For more clarity on this section/clip i think would be good to include explanation what makes up the minor/major pentatonic. Minor Pentatonic = 1, b3, 4, 5, b7(i.e 2 and b6 left out) Major Pentatonic = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 (i.e 4 and 7 left out)

You know I've watched about 70 of these pentatonic videos, I know because I've built the playlists, and for whatever reason, this is the one that got me to the light bulb. I've only been playing for 8 months but practicing every day and spinning gears for the last 2 months trying to memorize some of these patterns. Putting on the backing track I just sort of automatically started playing between positions 1 and 2. I really appreciate this video, sincerely. I actually feel like I'm figuring stuff off now and playing within a context rather than just randomly. Thank you very much.

@Samjamguitar
@Samjamguitar 8 күн бұрын
Short term perhaps. In the long term, learning the 5 positions is far more beneficial and ties together perfectly with CAGED and any other positions of modes/arpeggios/scales etc across the fretboard! Plus I have never encountered a student that struggled with simply starting with position 1 of the minor pentatonic scale, it's such an easy pattern to learn and use immediately!
