Here are 5 Neo-Soul Guitar Progressions played on my Lava Me 3 plugged in, using built-in IRs (Inpulse-Responses). We’ll cover the music theory for all of the chord progressions (keys, chord degrees with numbers) including secondary dominant chords, secondary diminished 7th chords and modal interchange. All the chord progressions are played fingerstyle and we’ll explain all of the chord embellishments. The chord diagrams are on screen and the graphics will help following along to the video. Watch the video till the end to see 2 bonus chord progressions! The full transcription (TAB and Music Notation) of the chord progressions is available to download on my Patreon page.

Please check the position of the Amaj7 chord that you are showing.

[@TheBeardedGuitarist]

It’s correct on patreon

[@wbdrums2603]

I appreciate the fact that you not only show the chords but also provide explanations. Looking forward to seeing more :)

[@TheBeardedGuitarist]

Thanks so much. Appreciate it!

[@lordbyron7918]

Great Video! On The first progression the tab of the AMaj7 is slightly inverted. it says x01210 but it's meant to be x02120.

[@transformationearthmusic]

Thanks so much for adding in the theory, it makes it much easier to put the chords in a context which makes it easier to learn for sure

[@artemijssaveljevs1386]

Very helpful content, top! Thanks for those progressions!

[@gtrplyrgrl512]

Just the Two of Us and Best Part! Great vibes!

[@darrencamacho5541]

Aloha, brearded one, i am so glad i found your lessons..your knowledge is amazing but even more important you have the ability to convey theory to a layman..my playing has improved..dominat 7 dim 7 never thought i would grasp this but the way you use it as you teach..i spend most of my time lately on your lessons and has helped even in hendrix style rhythms as well as other styles..my view of music has changed..banging out chords is great but now i am more into neosoul chord changes i can do alone, over and over..as well as understanding why i just added a dim 7 w a slide..great job spreading you knowledge, effective when you throw in a mistake to keep it real..brilliant work..started growing a beard but guitar skills didnt improve..lol Be well ,great work one love Thank you.

Love love these lessons, the best I’ve found. Just a minor (No pun intended) correction: Your first A major 7 is not shown right in the diagram.

[@elabismoylaluna6981]

❤ 05:53 the best chords for me man!! Thanks

[@emlyngriffith5846]

Thank you ❤️

[@stevieboi61]

[@olegstovs2624]

Thanks. Exuse me, but in the third progression the drawing of Fmaj9 is not 8 but 7-th fret.

[@TheBeardedGuitarist]

I know

[@Itsallgoodtogo]

0:52 invert the finger positions for the correct chord. Graphics show the wrong grip

[@CCJosh]

that’s 5 progression sounds like Best Part

[@razamatazfirzam5724]

I'll take thast Amaj7 instead of that A/D diminished with an added 4th :))

[@olegstovs2624]

Thanks. Exuse me, but in the first progression the drawing of Amaj7 is not correct. Anyway, I want to learn them all because I love this style. Very nice.

[@akinoshoko4258]

Yep, I saw that, but you can see him play it correctly. Plus there is that luxurious, Unmistakable Amaj7 sound......... Well spotted though👌🏾😉

[@TheBeardedGuitarist]

It’s all correct in the Patreon tab though
