Thank you!

Love the name Buzzworthy!

I spent far too much time thinking that arpeggios were a) for jazz, and I'm not a jazz player, or b) for sweep-pick shredding, and I'm not a shredder. If I ever invent a time machine, I'll send your lessons back to that old me. Cheers, great video as always.

[@acpg]

Thank-you. Yes, totally agree - seems like arpeggios are generally considered to be only for jazzbos or sweep picking shredbots but that's not the case, they can be used in any style as a very musical option for playing over any chord progression.

[@3004benj]

arpeggios are the notes of the chords. doesn't matter if jazz, heavy metal, house, rap, cumbia, reggae... it will always work

[@chalkboardjamtracks]

Great lesson Adrian. It was very useful to hear you explain the basics like sliding the third down a fret to get a minor third. I've avoided learning theory for 30 years but you make it sound very logical and clear - thanks!

[@DavidYarber]

Really enjoying and profiting from these arpeggio lessons as well as your triad focused ones. Wonderful teaching style and immense knowledge.

[@ghalston5641]

Brilliant easy explanation. You’ve got a new subscriber. I especially appreciate the fact that you explain the arpeggio in relation to the chord shape, the scale degrees (intervals) and of course the notes. That helps to put them into context.

[@JPsJacket]

I was literally searching this topic last night! Great timing!

[@flxojo]

Great work on the Arpeggio series. Learnt so much. Thanks!

[@rawiczrawa3561]

Great lesson and very simple to follow. Thank you.

[@ruechel]

I have been watching you for a while now and been getting deeper into it these days - you're a really good teacher, mate. Thanks for all your efforts: people don't realize how much work goes into making a video like this. Cheers from NYC, Nick

[@rohanm8526]

Love your videos, Adrian - you're one my top 2 favourite guitar tutorial YTers. I also love that you're not turning to clickbait titles as have other YTers I used to follow.

[@darkforest4891]

I just got my hands on american original 60s Jazzmaster so this video brings me joy. What a guitar. The hype is real.

[@acpg]

Lucky you, amazing guitars!

[@FoilFroth6284]

Wow...no thumbs down Adrian. Things are looking up ;) Thank you for your excellent clips. Best regards from right down South-West Australia...

[@ttothep1]

I got the same guitar color and everything! Awesome guitar! It sounds so good and easy to play.

[@robertgreen5842]

Another great lesson, thank you, and another pair of spectacles!

[@ShlomirBareket]

Good to see ya going for the early 70s Fripp look!

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

As the first section ended the fast show's John Thompson said 'nice' in my head. At the end of the second one it was the old grey whistle tests whispering Bob Harris. Actually was very nice, great tutelage. 😎🎙🎸✅

[@martynspooner5822]

Thanks a lot, another very useful lesson.

[@stickysat]

Thanks for sharing man ! The intro solo is Steely Danesque... :)

[@steveholderness1450]

I absolutely love these theory lessons but I really just don't know where to start with trying to nail this kind of thing. I have been playing (not brilliantly) for a few years, but I just get overwhelmed with the amount of cool and interesting pieces of theory that I'd like to know but feel like I'd have to practice 24hrs a day to ever pick up. I may go back to your beginner lessons again to see if there's stuff in there I can work on. It could also probably make me realise how much I actually have picked up too in the time I have been playing - it's very easy to see brilliant players like you making it look so easy and effortless and to be quite critical of your own talent I suppose. At some point (even if it was for just a few weeks!) you were worse than I am on the guitar currently! lol

[@visionset1456]

It comes, 5 years in myself at a pretty ripe age. Just keep practicing and picking up the theory. I find lightbulb moments where it all connects. Still have to work hard at it, but joining the dots and realising it's all different ways of explaining the same thing really helps. For me it's all about the major scale and diatonic progressions. Other stuff is just minor deviations from that. And tiny deviations are easier when you've a solid grounding in the latter.

[@darkforest4891]

A lot of it confuses me too especially when you have no basis for understanding but you just have to keep going and keep learning and some of the puzzle pieces start to fit. A year ago the words Flattened 3rd meant nothing to me. Today it does. I've learned to not worry if I dont really get something. It can lay the ground work for those light bulb moments later on.

[@captainkoo]

Greaaaaat playing and teaching !

[@simdoyle]

Fab lesson. Much appreciated.

[@Youcantleavethisempty01]

Soloing is so boring to me as it usually feels uninspired, but you’ve brought life and intentionality back into the solo with this improv. 👍🏼

[@acpg]

thank-you, yes a lot of boring solos out there! Glad you think I'm doing something different...

[@dewellhowell4348]

Great lesson and perfect timing I am just starting to look at Minor 7th Arpeggios. Have you ever considered looking at Billy Duffy's stuff? Would love to see you cover some of the more gothy rock stuff like cult or mission.

[@cellardwellerproductions5125]

Timely video actually. I been working on my ii-V-I’s arpeggios, and am lacking in the minors still. Playing minor with a funk, and you do have it Brother, sounded fun. I’ll have to look into the Phase 90, pretty cool twist. Thanks, for all you do Adrian.

[@nyistan]

Thanks Adrian!

[@elliotvernon7971]

Great lesson - Is the Major 7th version coming? - All the midwestern emo kids will love you for it!!

[@acpg]

haha yes that would be a logical next move. Will see what I can do.

[@BuzzworthyBand]

@@acpg And just to round out the major scale minor 7 flat five!

[@stephengardner5834]

Great vid, loving the beard!

[@tomcarlson1180]

Thanks Adrian. Maybe I’m a bit behind the pace, but i feel it would be helpful if you put fret numbers on the diagrams. JMO

[@matthewbockbrader6076]

How did you know I was working on minor 7 arpeggios? Now I'll have something to play with them.

[@Anatole0927]

Hello ! I recommend Turn Off the Guitar by Angel Du$t for a lesson great tune thanks !

[@PAGISOREChannel]

Wow.. great

[@juicylucy5797]

Great stuff! Love the beard!

Bought your handbook just now and am unable to access it. Please advise. Thx

You mean on Patreon? Should be in the posts section if you do a search. Message me on Patreon if you can't find it and I'll send a direct link. Hope that helps.

Volume working?

[@edwill62]

cool

[@PureMadMetal]

Awesome Adrian, tasty stuff and good explanation of the theory behind the scales. BTW a les Paul c/w humbuckers would have cut the sound mustard better than the Fender IMO. Adrian thank you for the video another quality lesson.

[@thediamonddog95]

Just one small question, not really that relevant since your lessons are constantly superior - but why there are no time marks for each part of video?

[@acpg]

haha, I'm on the case. Just fired the member of my team responsible for video time markings.
