10 years ago I was learning Coldplay's yellow from you. 2 degrees in classical guitar later, I'm back to learn altered scale. Thank you Justin! =) You're a great teacher.

[@Ryukyagamisan]

this is saving lives

[@NailedSolo]

Man ive got to tell you ...you are a brilliant wise man ..the most significant thing in all those lessons is the quit easily built way of teaching which provides the student fully understanting in every little aspect of the theory in the lesson. Subbed your channel few years back ago and still following up every video and try to pick up every little piece of information in every video. Great job Justion ..great job.

[@funkyfreshguitar]

These are the best lessons on KZbin.

[@pablodebiddlybo3771]

Excellent video and really clears up some myths about grips for me many years back now

[@Pepe00ad]

Hi justin, I have wanted to spice my blues/rock up with a touch of jazz for some time, so your "little" intro to the jazz-universe have been very helpfull and inspiring... Thanks alot for your big effort, I just wish I had these videos 10 years ago .........

[@timsmith190]

Perhaps the best music\guitar lessons on the internet. Clearly explained from beginner to advanced. You have been my go to source for music theory for several years now. Thank you for your effort and your contribution Justin.

[@felixmarkman2099]

Justin is THE BEST Guitar teacher on KZbin. PERIOD!

[@jimstrader8655]

Thank you Justin, your never to old.

[@bizzle1783]

just read your comment yeah you're right about the 7#9-7b9 in breathe,it's a nice sound,i read that richard wright(keyboards) got it from listening to miles davis album!

[@kjv444]

My brain's not hurting but my fingers are. Love the white board. You made those jazz enhancement chords more organized and easier to learn. Thanks

[@muzmix123]

the way how you relate the theory to the practical using the white board is very good!

[@samlewismusic1]

This is an incredibly straight forward approach to something quite daunting at first glance. Thank you for the lesson.

[@MichaelGowland]

Justin, I have to say thank you for your great videos they are a real asset and to make them all for free is very generous of you, it much appreciated.

[@JahJahBruh]

Thanks Justin i tought i would never get jazz so quickly, you are the best teacher!

[@tflorent]

Hi, you're a good teacher and have a good understanding of therory and practice, thank you for your contributions

[@TheStuntmanSteve]

This was actually really well described (as was the previous video on altered scales). Great lesson! I was able to experiment and apply it immediately. The whiteboard run-through is what clarified everything.

[@sk8ordie3895]

You're a great teacher dude!!! I hope you get some sort of cut for this stuff cause you're better than all the guys that I've paid top dollar to teach me, and you're not even teaching one on one.

[@ibzmav]

You're making guitar playing so much easier Justin, thanks a lot & Happy Holidays!

[@VelezBiH]

Thank you Justin this is a great lesson, i allways fealt intimidated by these chords but i feel like i have a good grip on them now and know how to find them. thank you very much 5/5

[@MahRiiN0oo]

I'll have to come back to this one. I watched it, and sort of understood it, but I'm going to have to brush up on my basics first and build up so I understand better.

[@dfwjag]

Excellent! I've been working on chord melody and this was a good overview of how to think about it quickly. As usual thanks a ton!

[@alansmollen]

your white board of doom.....is fantastic....and you take pride in your teacher chops! sir. 'grips' means chord shapes...duh? thank you tons for the easy to follow lessons, Im a bass player venturing into the 6 string realm....you make the extra strings make sense.

[@hothempire]

Thanks for the trick in unpacking the interval steps and adding on... much easier!

[@MrFrampo56]

The best guy there is. Period.

[@celebro95]

i just have to say "THANK YOU" you and Dave Weiner are awesome :)

[@aviationcompilation455]

Man, you really just simplified that so much. Thank you so much! wow.

[@12monkeys95]

Thank you very much! This was very helpful

[@closetome]

Thanks J-bird. Somerset UK.

[@RAMezzone]

your explanation(s) are spot on...inspiring..thank you.

[@keem85m]

Your personality motivates me

[@joseangelreyes3230]

esa es una buena explicacion de los acordes alterados,especificamente acordes de septima dominante bravo for Justin......

[@javiiivillalpandoo]

Justin's whiteboard of doom... this guy is awesome...

[@guitarone988]

Just what I was looking for, good stuff... I decided to subscribe when I realized you are the guy that made the timetrainer app, right, ur a genius!!

[@MarkGuitar]

Yes, the change you speak of is D7#9 to D7b9 :)

[@BlikeNave]

@SemiTall Ya it is confusing if you look at it like that. I see what you're saying and it would make more sense if he had an extra fret in there (making the G on the third fret), but it's not really important. The important thing is that you understand the shape, as it can be moved anywhere (not just G). I'm sure you know this, but ya don't worry too much about which fret it's on. Justin's diagram isn't accurate with the frets, but the shapes are all he really wants us to focus on.

[@applewhiteroad]

fantastic video, love the chord work and the explaination

[@seanallen7804]

DIG IT! Thank you!

[@jorgemusiko]

Hi, really teaching . Thank you.. All the best jorge quintero...

[@huntikis]

Amazing Justin!

[@get_downed_boi6270]

justin is such a god lmao.

[@soolan11]

Your blackboard really explained it all.

[@Mvision123]

BOOM , brain exploded! (just kidding) great lesson! might be a little bit too advanced for me:)

[@SomethinWild]

Best idea is to refer to his earlier lessons.

[@johnknockout993]

Your a good person

[@christophermolina9231]

This is a good idea seeing how jazz chords are such a musical mess on the fretboard

[@Quodge]

Cheers this was a great help :) p.s I can really hear the london cockney in ur (I assume) Aussie accent! :P

[@thedrunkonion]

Instead of youtube, I think asking the questions on his forum would have a higher chance of him answering the question.

[@brainpanzer361]

great vid mate! thanks

[@Niobus1]

nice tele

[@chrisfarrugia5397]

[@Ektellion]

[@pablomorales1]

Useful!

[@AlucardZero]

Got the same hat.

[@projectoz88]

plaid FTW!

[@wohololao]

G7(#5) it's the same as a G7(13b), right?

[@faprama]

Thumbs up for that teacher´s face and everything that comes latter.

[@kaina5467]

this is amazing! :D

[@puneetjolly2792]

Awesome $$$$$.

[@xxfaction6xx]

Nashville number system would be a good place to start

[@huagesu9294]

THIS IS CLEAR AS FK,THANK YOU

[@tinyatk]

quick question: what does he mean when he says 3th, 5th or 9th? where can i get more info about this naming system?

[@StromboliKicks]

Thanks justin! I have one doubt, though. We can use the altered chords in a normal V cord of a major scale, or it has to be in a context of a melodic minor scale? Thanks

[@CaptainAmerica7770]

I wish chord boxes were always drawn with the scale degree written in.

[@jaggercontreras9270]

Nice n cool.

[@jrgoldman8065]

Justin the only notes that can be altered on a Dom chord is the 5 sharp or flat and the 9 sharp or flat correct ? Only 4 notes

[@johnlocklol8888]

Is G7 in the key of C or key of G? just want to make sure...cuz i thought G7 is in the key of C and D7 is in key of G, but you said in the video that you are in the key of G

[@gallionlion6388]

its in the key of G

[@hamishpierpont6001]

G7 is the V chord of C major.

[@IbanezjemJSX]

Hamish Pierpont So is it the key of C major? I know usually it uses the same notes as C major, but with it being the altered scale i get pretty confused

[@hamishpierpont6001]

IbanezjemJSX​ Yep, G7 is something you would encounter in the key of C major. The idea behind the altered scale is that because dominant seventh chords have tension that resolves when the I chord is played after them, using the altered scale simply adds to that tension.

[@bogdaniliant7759]

G is on the second fret? Since when?

[@johnparker1371]

good pick up!! those are F# chords

[@odyss1393]

7:09 isn’t that also a G7b13?

[@bsnf-5]

it's simply G augmented

[@Asthaar8]

haha white board of doom ;D

[@diatonicshooter8316]

*Why always Flat 7 not just 7 ?*

[@bsnf-5]

Music theory. C major scale: c d e f g a b c. But C7 chord is actually: C E Bb. We have flattened the B from major scale, and hence flat 7

[@lucasnon5784]

Lol white board of doom. I ain't scurred

[@EcoCentrist]

I love you but please re-record this with something other than a potato

[@ErnieBraganza]

Really helpful info well presented. Thank!

[@BearSamartband]

Thank you
