Using SIXTHS To Create BETTER Rhythm & Lead Ideas | John Mayer & Mateus Asato Inspired Guitar Lesson

[@payple2222]

the intro is so good like honestly

[@hugothebear4681]

The intro is heart melting!

[@DarrylSyms]

Thanks! 😁

[@acousticadventure1]

Great stuff, at first i didn't calculate how the 6th for the 2nd degree could be major, since it's a minor chord, but then alas i recalled the 2nd mode's characteristics, BAM!

[@chestermerrick261]

Absolutely gorgeous. Just bought one of your lesson packages! Seeing videos like this assure me that I made a good choice.

[@DarrylSyms]

Thanks Chester! I look forward to hearing how you get on 😄

[@Free_Falastin2024]

This lesson earned you my subscription. Why? Because you revealed that Asato sound and how he does it. I plead the sixth

[@bielzinhoferreira8184]

amazing content cheers from Brazil bro!

[@jorgehernandezrincon8621]

Salu2 darril!! Muy buenos tus videos

[@Joj1n]

In my mind i memorize the 6th by the parallel minor. C-a, G-e, D-b etc.

[@gorimus]

I think paralled minor of C major would be C minor, isn't it? Did you mean relative minor? Also, this method is useful, but one has to account for major/minor 6th interval? For example, in the E major scale, 6th is C#, and in the E minor scale, it is C.

[@Oron354]

@@gorimus I guess he meant to say, Relative minor

[@JGAbstract]

Who else is trying their ass off to learn that intro. The minor triad slide to the 5th/ 6th hammer on shape to the bass note on the low E to the muted slide.. Is killing me

[@cx777o]

Holy shit that intro riff was awesome! I want to write something similar like that for soo long haha

Thank you! 😄

I am. You’re currently reading this comment. I see all

Darryl Syms woah my mind has been blown 😂

[@donrafael1423]

very mateus asato vibe, that intro

[@tylerdelatorre8230]

Could you make a tutorial on the types of chords Mateus asato mainly uses in his rhythms?

[@DarrylSyms]

Yes I would love to, that’s on my to do list. Keep an eye out, this will definitely be out soon! ✌️

This is a great lesson. Please edit out the lick from belief. It would be a shame if the video is demonetiized just because of 10 sec of the lick. Keep up the videos coming. Loved your nick Johnston video as well.

[@DarrylSyms]

Thanks Pranav! 😄

Damn you make look easy.

[@neljav84]

That intro was tasty!

[@Desperado665]

Good country interval

[@DarrylSyms]

Indeed!

[@ramencafe1]

hey, can anyone explain to me why he is playing a d major 6 in the key of C? i was under the impression that the second chord of the key will be a minor. thank you :)

[@DarrylSyms]

It’s been a while since I filmed this so I don’t know what you’re quoting, but I predict that the problem is that you’re not understanding the difference between FUNCTIONAL vs NON-FUNCTIONAL. Perhaps you misinterpreted “D major 6” with “start on D and then up a major 6” 👍

[@ramencafe1]

thank you Darryl that clears things up :) appreciate this

[@superbsherbetreverb3409]

I think you're asking why the second harmonised sixth that Darryl plays at around the 2:38 mark has the same shape as the first one, when, if the harmonised sixths start on C (a major chord in the key), the next shape, starting on D (a minor chord in the key) would be different. Darryl's actually harmonising the C major scale starting on A here , i.e. he's harmonising the A natural minor scale. The notes of the scale on the thinner of the two strings in the chosen string set should be harmonised with the sixth on the the thicker string. For example, the C note harmonised in sixths for all string sets would be: 12x10xxx (strings 6 and 4), x7x5xx (strings 5 and 3 - which Darryl plays at 3:05), xx2x1x (strings 4 and 2) and xxx9x8 (strings 3 and 1). These particular sixths comprise the third and root of the chord (triad). Each triad will have two sixths, consisting of these notes of the scale - type 1: the third (thicker string) and root (thinner string) and type 2: the fifth (thicker string) and third (thinner string). These lie two shapes apart on a given string set where each note of the scale is harmonised in sixths. For example: x7x5xx - E and C notes, i.e. third and root; and x10x9xx - G and E notes, i.e. fifth and third (which is also E minor harmonised as a sixth in the sequence). There will be a third type of sixth for seventh chords, comprising the seventh on the thicker string and the fifth on the thinner string. It's worth trying to relate the shapes to known chords, to help locate them on the fretboard, e.g. xx2x1x is part of the open C major chord and can be related to the CAGED C shape anywhere on the neck, and xxx9x8 is part of the E shape C major barre chord.

[@doordashh]

kool major siq lesson dude!

[@DarrylSyms]

Thanks bro!

[@JGAbstract]

One thing I don't understand is why the 3rd gets a minor third and a minor 6th. I just accept that it does, and that's the rule. But I don't know WHY that's the case. Supposedly if you stack a third on top of each interval you get its' 1-3-5 triad. But I have no idea why the 3 on 2-3-6-7s get flatted, I just know that's the rule.

[@alanimranali]

Damn you make it look easy.

String control and muting is the key! 🙌

Darryl Syms really ? But how to i mute other strings when i am playing solo at the same time..... tell me the practice for that!

Hi Darryl I use major and minor 6th intervals in my newest song at about the 6.24min mark. In other riffs I used major and minor thirds but yea, the sixths brought something else to the sound Nice work mate! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZTTm3ihhZycmbs The sound is nice for sure

Why can’t people with accents say sixth

Who doesn’t have an accent?

[@unconventionalguitarist9129]

Lol touché.

[@George-fh9zm]

Terrible lesson. Too confusing for a simple method.

[@DarrylSyms]

Perhaps you’re a terrible learner? Or this is just waaay out of your league and you should take a step back? You’re the only person out of over 16,000 viewers to have complained, so either you’re an incredible and elite guitar player/teacher with an incredible ego, or this is way outta your league. I predict the latter 🙂

[@VyasAnand]

You need to back up and relearn stuff then - this was dead simple
