This is easily one of the most useful guitar videos i have ever watched AND its got jokes sprinkled through

[@tesslapointe5120]

Best internet guitar tutorials i have ever found. Lots of good topic centric information in each one.

[@andrewbrenneman4944]

The steel panther joke was gold! Great lesson brotha

[@bijankhadembashi1016]

Andrew Brenneman I died

[@divided1729]

That was so funny, great delivery too, made me laugh aloud.

[@bijankhadembashi1016]

I love the bite size nature and simplicity of your lessons, helps get the ball rolling. Thanks man

[@nathancox3126]

Very useful guidance my friend. I Love guitar fretboard hacks. Thanks a bunch.

[@collegesports-usa]

Hey sean, i have struggled & struggled learning to just move up and down the fret board. No one and i mean nobody with all the learning cds i have and i have over 100 plus to learn the fret board. You are the first person to break it down like this. In just this 10 min lesson i can make music. I will actually pick up my guitar again to learn this easy phrasing if i can call it that. Story short! Thank you! By the way your a funny guy too! thanks, franco

[@raymster8450]

Amazing, I will need to rewatch several times until it all soaks in. Thanks

[@LionOfKingston]

Thank you!

[@seandaniel23]

happy to help!

[@seanenglish3002]

These are great tips on how to learn the fretboard. Saw that you have officially hit 250K subscribers. Congratulations. Your Master Class is fantastic. I have re-watched a section of it each day since finishing it. It is the gift that keeps on giving. I also bought 10 Simple Chords for my son. You are such a good teacher. I wish that was how I had started on guitar.

[@seandaniel23]

Man thanks so much for all the support!

[@adrianbrome6652]

Hi, Sean. I'm learning to play the guitar & ran into 1 of your videos about a week ago. Don't know what it is. Don't know if it's because my middle name is 'Sean' but I find your tutorials rather eye-OPENing & refreshing. By the way, I'm not superstitious. You DEFINITELY have the Gift of teaching others how to play the Guitar. Yup, you make this thing sound & look really easy. I just need to put in the practice hours. Continue to stir up the God-given gift within you, bro.

[@jamestone2977]

This is the only math lesson where I’ve not fallen asleep and completely understood . Thanks Sean👍🏻

[@skintslots]

The 1,4,5 tip was priceless for a beginner like me. You are an absolute nutcase as we say in the UK,but I mean that in the best sense of the word. Zany,kookie or whatever you fellas use in the US ,but with great guitar playing information.

[@redsparks13]

Yayyy you finally made this concept into a video 😁😁😁 thank you shawnnn ❤️

[@susanaespolong1518]

A very precious tutorial! Thank you, Sean.

[@GuyGGormanandtheGMen]

You may be doing first grade math, but you're Einstein as far as I'm concerned. I'm so impressed by all of the ideas you have for music lessons!

[@seandaniel23]

Man thanks so much!

[@cjrocksu5942]

Sean, your lessons have always inspired me to go forward, even when I'm slipping down a muddy hill. Mastery next, many Thanks

[@vsm6]

That's so helpful brother. If possible please make a video on time signature and the strumming in it. Way you explain is really helpful and easy to understand the complicated things.

[@maxjosephson8352]

great lesson Sean thank you

[@acousticknights9654]

That's an awesome breakdown of the neck and has me looking at it in a new light. I have always used this thing I've heard called the "Hat" or "Pan" trick to find my major and minor chords. This is another cool way of getting around and combining them has really helped me make more sense of the entire fretboard and where I'm at. Thanks man

[@chiliman321]

Good Stuff..I knew that! I just needed you to tell me I knew it......Awesome man...never thought of it numerically...Maddd Skills my friend!

[@Iam1DK]

Sean, excellent!!!! Very helpful and simple and easy to remember. Thanks

[@greenwave792]

When you break through from guitar 2 to guitar 3. That's where this is awesome. Been playing for 12 yrs. and just now understanding what he is talking about. Right on MAN. My wife plays keyboard and sings, she knows where to go by ear. I on the other hand don't, I can only sing in D. ON THE D. played some new stuff because of this video. Thanks bro.

[@annie4971]

Great lesson Sean thanks😘

[@seandaniel23]

Happy to help!

[@jeffnorris6360]

You are possibly the coolest guy on the planet or at least in Florida. I learned a lot here and even got the bonus tip to be wary at Steel Panther concerts.

[@seandaniel23]

haha, that's the number one tip for sure!

[@21ryanspencer]

Thank you Sean! Appreciate the load of info on your channel

[@Mr.Takahash1]

Thank you so much for this video. It really helped me memorize the notes on the neck!

[@ahmedhamid1485]

Great lesson sean thanks alot brother

[@seldonlives19]

you are awesome for demonstrating this.

[@tomeniovlogs2973]

Sean,,,,,you're the MAN!!! thanks a lot!

[@HigherPlanes]

Awesome lesson. I totally discovered a new way to tune my guitar starting on the 5th fret lower E string using your math tricks.

[@insanedrummer89]

So glad I took that pre cal class in college

[@alexisprojects]

Super helpful. Thanks.

[@jwestleywilson271]

This has helped tremendously. Thanks Sean

[@friendlynightshade5192]

I got the master class and...It's awesome! thanks. you guys did great. simple and cool stuff I know rhythm and all of the chords but struggled with any theory or soloing stuff. (being self taught) but now i feel i can achieve the next level of guitaring. 10/10 would buy again...on special ;P

[@jerryaddison5137]

Very well done!!

Now I have to glue a calculator to the back of my guitar

[@scottwinning7484]

Top man, your exactly what I need at the level I'm at, everything else is either too simple and I already know or a big step into complicated theory which I havent got the time for..... keep the vids coming 👍

[@gedport6771]

Thanks for explaining the maths it's really helpful

[@drunkass77]

Nice lesson. The major, minor, minor... chords relation was the single most important thing i learned taking lessons. Sick guitar by the way. I played a masterbuilt the other day, it felt like a several thousand dollar guitar that was $399

[@roberttrautwein1260]

Great video, Sean. And a cool segue way to the 57!

[@downhill240]

I have so much to learn! Great lesson Sean!

[@lightfield]

Great lessons, it really helps when I'm learning to play higher up on the fretboard, just what I was looking for! Keep up with this content, and your good work!

[@TMats100]

Thank you, Sean

Just bought the Master Course! More than half off? I couldn't resist. Wish me luck hoping this is what I need to vault my ability to the next level. Hope you get your Jeep!

[@justinheyward2830]

Roy Johnson where is this course and what is the price?

[@Weadababytsaboy]

@@justinheyward2830 if you click on the drop down description to the video, it was the first link. It's usually $65 for almost 4 hours of videos and if there's new ones, you'll get them no charge. I just seem to pick up a lot from Sean so I think it suits me.

[@Weadababytsaboy]

It was $30 for me, but I jumped on the offer!

[@justinheyward2830]

Thanks so much! Probably going to buy it and check it out

[@wspeed657]

Sounds like you go for the happy endings lol. Thanks for video. It makes it a little easier to recognize maj, min chords

[@guillaumebergeron7622]

Great lesson! You just helped me to unlock the secret of infinity riffs

[@gedport6771]

I learnt this one, with I,IV,V cords. The "I" Bar cord A major 5th fret in the E shape. The "4" is the A shape on the 5th string and the you move down two frets for the "V". Makes it easy. I like you f shape

[@jorgecordova6033]

thanks a lot man,that was fantastic,the last 2-3 minuts i gotta watch it very close,kind of hard for me ro count the notes a b c d e f g as 1 2 3 and so on,but this was great,thank you

[@Luislazarosolana]

Hi Sean. Awesome video! I didn't get completely the 57% math rule, and I am just trying to split my fretboard in small pieces to find it out, but the rest is great! Thanks!

[@rajeshpal9108]

Let's be honest when sean uploads a 10minute tutorial you know for sure it's gonna be a full 10 min tutorial. Everywhere else on KZbin it's just 2 min useless tips with 8 min shit talk Thanks man,For existing!!

Dont forget the 2 min demo at the beginning like, we get it, you can play

[@vickiignaszak5041]

That guitar is gorgeous. What's the make? There's a glare on the headstock so I can't read it. I wish I'd had your channel as a resource 10+ years ago back when I was still learning stuff like this. Probably would've really helped. Wish I'd had videos like this as a resource back when I was still struggling to learn the fretboard. What ultimately forced me to learn the notes all over the fretboard was playing bass in a jazz combo because staying at the end of the neck gets boring after awhile when you're comping a bassline. But where playing bass really helped was forcing me to visualize the relationship between intervals on the neck. For any guitarists out there struggling to learn the notes on the neck: learn the circle of 5ths/4ths, it's invaluable.

[@jimmybob5541]

It's an Epiphone masterbilt series guitar. I don't remember which one exactly although any search on sweetwater or guitar center and you'll find it. I think most of them are kinda reissues of their really old archtops (like this one) and some of the more common flat tops. From the looks of the masterbilt series they look really nice for the price. I love Epiphone

[@quentinrasco6229]

Nice. Never heard it explained this way.

[@cl12pak]

Great lesson. I don't have my guitar in front of me, but I"m sure it won't be as great once I pick it up, lol.

[@danh-RedSwan]

Thank you 🎸😃

[@jimideez9829]

Fantastic!

[@DeadShred9]

I'm self taught watched my friends and learned . Then Thank God MTV came out and you could figure most songs out by watching fret hand placement or if you were lucky they would frame a close up of the Guitar player . That's how I learned Night Ranger - Don't Tell Me You Love Me & Metallica ONE the whole song . But no internet or multiple Guitar Teachers who all do things different . This Math thing is interesting but may take time . I always just moved two Frets up or down the neck and usually found my pocket just luck who knows it worked . I hate Theory and all those things they tell you you must learn and Im a shred guy so I did something right lol

[@darrellmcdonald7883]

Good and simple.... that's how you do it.

[@koho]

Ah yes - the Epiphone archtop. Have coveted one since following Dave Rawlings and his vintage Olympic. Beauteous!

[@seandaniel23]

Such a cool one!

[@johngale2510]

Best lesson ever!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks John!

[@hoperoyal9921]

Very helpful video! I have a electric Gibson ( Epiphone) guitar, but I don't know what amp to use or how to use an amp. Any suggestions on which amp is the best? Any help will be appreciated! :)

Should i follow this if i want to understand the fretboard and progress as a musian or is there better ways?

[@KailynsJoy]

Thanks to Sean Daniel, I am graduating from ChickNGuitars to Guitar MathemaChicken. In all seriousness... this is so stupid simple, it's impossible not to absorb and apply. Thanks for the break through 👍

i feel you on that intro. those asian massage parlors are a great time, but not for robert kraft lol

[@mountp1391]

This is awesome hahaha!!

[@evandxn]

I learned that 7 fret trick not even knowing that was a I-V move. For years not knowing any theory, I weighed heavily on that lol.

[@colinreese]

You're good at keeping a straight face when you say the shocking stuff as your first sentence aways. LOL

[@seandaniel23]

I've had a lot of practice :)

[@Wheelfish]

You just earned yourself a sub my friend

[@timbradley135]

Is that guitar in tune?

[@brandonv1603]

How do you play that little funky riff at the start

[@Elleon12]

Most valuable lesson here, beside the guitar math of course, dont impregnate someone you just met.
