4 Ways to Visualize the Fretboard

[@justinpatire6174]

Most of your videos just go over my head... I just hope I learn something

[@kiddi3smalls]

Ickythethump __ cmon Jim, you're smarter then that!

[@MusicisWin]

Apparently our minds are pineapples.

[@reymiyamoto5717]

Yeah, I expected there to be frames from some zombie film, where the head of the zombie blows up, but it was just pineapple XD

[@MrJuf75]

In my case ou could have blown up a bag of sand for realism...

[@jaypickard]

Hi this is Tyler, and I'd like to take 9 minutes of your time to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Triads.

[@MusicisWin]

Hahahah

[@jaypickard]

Music is Win you're my first love

[@AnotherFishyMuffin]

Jay Pickard same yo

[@カスカディア国人]

Hail Triads!

[@Boons___1]

Lmao,triads

[@KRigby]

My god you are very good at explaining things. Keep up the good work man you are a amazing teacher.

[@lindseyashley8401]

I really like this guy... he is a teacher. He not only shows but then makes you think about what he has shown you. Then he encourages you to throw it all out and follow your heart... open up the door of creativity. I just discovered his lessons this morning and did a rare thing for me.. I subscribed. God bless you and America too...

[@ScorpioDeal]

I really like how you not only share your knowledge of music and guitar, but also your passion for it. I have been playing guitar most of my life and I have signed up for your courses to help me improve my own playing. Thank you for sharing.

[@kevinryan2375]

wow , that explanation was very helpful, the different approach to the 4 views, let me hear what i want to get from my guitar, but also showed how they all inter-relate and what i need to focus on for now, thank you

[@jayblack5231]

Hey, I've had a perpetual fear of improvisation and this video really just made everything seem more open and killed the pressure that I was feeling. Thanks so much

[@PuNkIsNoTdEaD01]

you are soooo farrr the best online guitar teacher i know. Always informative and keeping up good and useful material.

[@Shshan3]

Just found your channel and wanted to say thanks! You deserve way more subscribers! Keep up the great work

[@jackhaworth1324]

Hi Tyler. Thanks for the great video. Have you thought of doing some more basic theory lessons for intermediate guitarists? I imagine some people get stuck where they can actually play some decent stuff but don't know where to progress in terms of making their own music (I'm one of them!). This was really interesting and you have a great manner of communicating both the knowledge and your enthusiasm for playing. Thanks again.

[@Rick_Cleland]

You assume that my brain is a Pineapple...?? How dare you!!

[@anthonymaloney6838]

Triggered, go to your safe space snowflake...

[@anthonymaloney6838]

Haha.

[@Rick_Cleland]

Anthony Maloney Ya' dun goofed!! Consequences will never be the same!!

[@nathanaellandicho]

Magic Strings of Frankie Presto in the background!! That book got me into playing guitar, hahaha😁😁

[@eugenemcloughlin2880]

thanks man only playing a couple of months myself i noticed the whole triad thing you were talking about especially when i play guns n roses nightrain the into has i few if you ever heard long story short i played on clean channel and had fun with an effect your video gave me a different approch

[@studiojutsu]

#4 was a big breath of fresh air ! The other three are kinda intimidating.

[@grittynitty]

Nice video. If I might make a suggestion, it would be to put the chord progressions in a looper so then when you demonstrate the soloing, we can really hear how it sounds over the progression.

[@nnurmi651]

Anyone else hear cliffs of dover in the g triads

[@diaspiano]

N Nurmi yeah man, totally

[@brendandube22]

yeah!

[@brianarnold3625]

[@tomfromthenorth1]

Hi Tyler, I don't know if you realised or not, but you have just perfectly answered a question I asked on here a few weeks ago. A big thank you mate :)

[@Not_what_it_used_to_be]

Yousician is the best way to learn, practice, and master the guitar. Just take your acoustic or electric and play along! Yousician listens to you play, and gives instant feedback on accuracy and timing. Fun and addictive gameplay tracks your progress and keeps you motivated.

[@kenperes]

yousician sucks

[@Not_what_it_used_to_be]

Ken Peres Whether you're a complete beginner, or an advanced professional, you can follow amazing expert-designed courses that guide you with tutorials, songs, and exercises.

[@ASquared007]

Well, when almost every ad for guitar players IS Yousician... What can I say? Yousician is the best way to learn, practice, and m- FFFFFFFFFFFNNNNOOOOOOO I will NOT be programmed! Just... Take.... Your.... Aaaaaac-c-c-c-oustic... Grrrrrrrr I am not your puppet, Yousician!

[@MrMaton01]

I usually press skip..

[@Not_what_it_used_to_be]

CONSTANT unskippable yousician ads… they do things to you.

[@RubbelisPro]

use the Santana method where you think the neck of the guitar is a snake because your gacked out on LSD

[@exarom1670]

chili peppers shirt 🤘

[@miked7295]

Hey Tyler, have you ever done a video about buying a new guitar and what to look out for? See, I still have my first electric guitar I got 2,5 years ago and I'm looking for another one, but I have almost no knowledge about what to look for. I mean, I could always buy an Epiphone or Squier or w/e but there must be lesser known brands that are actually better. Anyway, after I've saved up enough money and got myself a new guitar, I will take a look at some of your courses, no doubt. You rock!

[@MegaTubettaja]

nice cactus bro

[@HeavyInstinct]

Great lesson! Thanks Tyler.

[@Raiichuuu]

Why do I get better every time I watch your videos? Witch craft Love it :D

[@RobGADV]

Sure wish I knew what the heck you were talking about. Yes, I have your course(s), but they're still over my head. :)

[@mattowen2749]

just keep learning and playing and one day it will all just click and its awsome

[@Fokimm]

That T-SHIRT is awesome!

[@fatjitsu6619]

[@kylehennessy3541]

Thank you this was very informative, filled the gaps for me

[@heitorhering]

Best channel ever

[@krang07]

idea: grab a guitar, sit on the couch, turn on tv and watch while playing random mindless stuff. maybe try and play to what your seeing on tv but try not to focus on what your playing really. the guitar is really something for your hands to do while you watch tv. whats the point of this exercise? maybe its just hand exercise but maybe if you record all that mindless noodling you might hear something you did and be inspired to expound on some interesting notes you played.

[@JohnnyGuitarRocks]

Awesome video, thanks Tyler!

[@simonthecucumberenjoyer1042]

My mind is a pineapple? This is the nicest thing someone ever told me :^)

[@choaniki7645]

I have a problem that might be a bit difficult to describe, but you seem to be very knowledgable, so perhaps you could refer me to some helpful tips. Advance apologies for this long comment. I grew up playing piano,keyboard,and organ by ear. I discovered my piano talent at age 4, and am 33 now. Stylistically, I play mostly jazz, blues, boogie woogie, but the way that I vizualize a keyboard made it pretty easy for me to really learn the "ins & outs" of piano playing. I started learning guitar a few years ago. Learning chords and scales is fairly simple. My problem is that the sound I hear is vizualized as a piano. I can copy(and even create my own piano renditions) of most instruments onto piano. On guitar, however, I have a really hard time actually vizualizing the fretboard, so I am completely incapable of creating my own music using a guitar. I'm not even sure what questions I would have to ask, but hopefully you can understand, and at least guide me in a helpful direction. Peace&Love,Brother!

[@playalot86]

Another amazing video! Thanks a lot!

[@modeseven8100]

That 4th point feels a BIT too much like a cop out. True, you can go off feel, but thats... something that can also be gathered from the other 3 ways. Only difference is it's going off trial and error than actually being useful in improvisation/writing and actually understanding and seeing your patterns on the fretboard. Just tell people to learn their theory/intervals. Either way, great video, I've been using the octave pattern myself and its how I've learnt how to go up and down the fretboard and visualise/pinpoint intervals like the b7/1/b3/4 box shapes. Didnt know it had a name, but its helped me and it's very useful for improvisation and moving up and down the neck seamlessly..

[@lastcall9998]

Damn yeah this one is so cool. Thanks mate.

[@rockenrollbass]

Music wins again!

[@karenlaferney8008]

And I have become a frozen daiquiri. This week at any rate. Haha. Love your vids.

Genio! (greetings from Argentina)

[@maplekandayo]

hey T, love your videos !! thanks a lot !! can you please make a video on audio cards? like apogee duet? thanks !!

[@acanova2001]

Great advice Tyler

[@samhaokip9126]

Great video! I've played guitar for over 13 years now and I still don't know what a pentatonic or a diatonic is. I play out of feeling and I pretty much know my way around the fretboard. Would be great to know the names of the scales or notes that I play though

[@alexisalescio1562]

thanks great work

[@cultureofhope]

Great Video Thanks

[@nemodollaz4120]

awesome shirt my guy

Thank you for sharing!! Cheers, G :D London

[@MaxAires]

You're great. Thank you

[@samyrhelou2580]

Holy shit. I knew you were good, but this video really surprised me. Anyway, im a newbie, so if anyone could help me out(or even you) : In the second method, I didnt understand how you knew the shapes. You just know how to instantly build a chord anywhere in the neck? If that's the case, I would like to know how to acquire this skill. Thanks a lot!

[@darylm.stephens9603]

Great advise ty

[@mattowen2749]

i love ur channel but can you break down ur guitar solos so we know how to use what u teach us

[@turnedlightschannel1160]

What video should I start with to be on the path to your level as a guitarist? If I could be half as good as you I could die happy

[@christopherwoodjr235]

Thank you

[@annabruce5194]

Hello, I am trying to learn how to play sheet music on my acoustic guitar, but I really doing understand how to to know which frets you play. I'm super confused! Please help!

[@felixderr.7459]

well done. But for me it would be very interesting how to play from a note sheet. I m kind of fucked up by not being able to play notes without knowing their name. I want to know when to play an A on the A string or another string. When you ve read this, I would be so happy with an answer that you have recognized it. Hope you understand what I m trying to say ;) I like what you are doing

[@samuelthorpe3461]

I'm struggling breaking out of muscle memory, and end up playing the same thing every time I try to solo, also this doesn't help me when i'm trying to improve my fluency and speed. Any ideas?

[@murilocaetano4997]

Learn some genres and/or guitarrists styles, along with their common phrases and characteristics. Major scale modes is also a nice try. You'll see that your improvs are going to get these influences.

[@MrMaton01]

Force yourself to play in positions/patterns you're not familiar with - either in whole or in part... Join these unfamiliar patterns with others horizontally instead of vertically. Put on a simple backing track (1 or 2 chord vamp) and target triads/chord tones in each position (know each chord shape of a single chord) - spend time relating the chord shape and its intervals to your scale of choice.

[@black_platypus]

I... I think I'm some sort of a psychic or something. I can actually see fretboards already! I see fretboards all the time! :O :P

[@adilshahid0503]

hey buddy... i am kinda looking into syllabus for guitar major from different institutes like ABRSM TRINITY and BERKLEE also... what's your advice on that? should i keep doing it or not? it''s not that i won't like it to get so deep but if it's worth it! cz it's pretty time consuming and i only have like 2-3 hrs to spare. If it made sense just a little bit , SAY SOMETHING >_

[@bryanjavier265]

rock on...

[@CrysisMusic]

Gotta get that triad fix on the go

[@oscarwagner8263]

dude,were can i find that chilli peppers shirt

[@anatisraeli4920]

!!!good lesson man ?what is the name of the song in the end

Anat Israeli rant by bo burnham

[@brando.phantom]

what's that thing you keep on clicking after your done with a riff? And can you say Brandon is a beast at guitar so i can brag please???

[@KempoSensei]

PIKA POOP he's just turning the volume pot all the way to mute the guitar.

[@kaka40031]

hey man ... love your videos .. there's something I wanna ask ... I know a bit off modes and all .. know what to scales to play ... but when it comes to jam with my friends.. I seem to end up sucking.. can't think of some cool things or anything to add it to the music... in short .. I suck big when I am jamming and conning up with new things on the spot .. any advice or help ??plz ..

[@kaka40031]

and yeah .. sorry for the such bad English

[@HenryMPerez]

when i used to try to write or improvise then i would focus on the root note of the section of the song. go to the fifth if its rock if music is enlightening go to octave. whenever possible use the notes that make up the chord to enhance the sound of the progression or help to move the song. anyway that's just a basic principal that i used when i tried....

[@kaka40031]

henry perez ...thanks for advice man ... will try it .. 😊

[@neilsjmcmahon]

Lost me a little bit in your interpretation of "shapes" (chord shapes) - seemed like you just played the initial 2 in the shape and then moved into something else. Were you imagining the major / minor chords in that shape as you played?

[@slashfan2125]

Hey man what camera do you use for your videos?

[@ЯрославТрифонов-п9з]

Thanks for the video, very helpful and entertaining^O^ By the way, I've tried to say: cool t-shirt \m/

[@karstenorm3248]

Nice shirt! Where did you buy it?

[@MarcGraedtke]

Whoop, hold on! Major 6th? I already signed in for your courses, just need time to go through them. You know... life and stuff. I thought the sixth is minor? What am I missing?

[@nerijusvilcinskas7851]

So Santana approach is to use Dorian mode, is that correct?

[@Migler1]

Are you using a solid state amp? Can't see to well, I must be blind :p

[@garyeggleton1142]

hmmmm....my other guitar player in the band takes 4th method all the way....I am still stuck with 1 and 2, and want to get to 3....4 dont work well for me lol

[@brolylssjdbz]

all those paterns are in the modern rock teqniche course?

[@PatLlaban]

Do you recommend CAGED system?

[@asafhanoch9941]

Cool shirt

[@Purpose_Tortoise]

The outro music is your piece?

[@CrysisMusic]

Ondrej Skivalkählisiin I was wondering the same

[@maidenthe80sla]

Ondrej Skivalkählisiin He might be using the royalty free music that he goes over on the "Guitar Backing Track Heaven" vlog from a few days ago.

[@LordoftheStrings109]

Ondrej Skivalkählisiin It sounds like a remix of Prisoners 1 and 2 by Lupe Fiasco. Great song, definitely worth checking out if you haven't heard it.

[@andrerocha456]

2 years late but reminds me Fort Minor

[@vilihaikio1]

cool shirt

[@paulmyfinger]

what was that triad scale u played? can u tab it for us please

[@humann0x]

i think those were just triads over the same root, but always an octave higher.

[@FisVii77]

Take an Eform Bar chord and play the 4 3 2 string from that form the root note is the on the 4th string major 3rd 3rd string the 5 is the 2nd string or just visualize the Eshape /form bar chord and know you are playing a Major chord triad when using those 3 strings with the 4 3 and 2 strings. if you Make the common E form Bar chord you can see it for yourself. Hope this helps man.

[@Tom-wm2rf]

When he goes to fret 10 it looks like he shifts to something that looks like an A chord in open position (would be an F up there) and then goes to the 12th fret (which is a G). I think on the way there he also modified the shape to pick up the F/A/C and G/B/D at 6 and 8.

[@guillermara]

i love that t-shirt, give it to me
