Guitar SOLOING made easy | These 3 Simple Shapes Will Change Your Life!

[@Adipsia1]

You manage to get across in 12 minutes what many guitar teachers fail to put across in 12 lessons. Thanks so much Brett.

[@robertgoodwinr6523]

I hear ya. Most teachers you visit are out to make money and will milk it for their benefit! I got a guy who runs a guitar shop up the street from me (nice guy) but he can't believe how much i've learned on my own with youtube in only 3 months. I will not take lessons from him because he wants you to sign a contract to take so many lessons with all these rules that go along with it. I'm all set with that.

[@jeromechaich4475]

I never had anything explained so easy yet so effective. Thank You!

[@BrettPapa]

You are welcome!

[@andrewptob]

Your lessons are perfect for where I'm at. I've gained a lot of knowledge already from a couple vids. Thanks man!

Sweet! Thanks for checking them out!

[@kentuckybourbonfade4264]

This is now favourite guitar lesson ever. Things are starting to make sense now with the pentatonic! Keep it coming!!

[@williamlinville3162]

I figured out why I always end up back on your videos . You teach like someone's friend would teach their best friend . you take time and don't bog it down with a lot unnecessary bs . nice , sweet and to the easy point . Thanks man.

[@BrettPapa]

Thank you sir! Thanks for watching!

[@williamlinville3162]

I appreciate you replying and the lessons. I love your style of playing.

[@nickbiser6175]

You nailed it William. That’s exactly what I was thinking. It’s always very clear and relatable

[@jackbenimble99999]

This is a *great* lesson. I've been trying to figure out how to map the chords to the pentatonic scale for at least a year. Using only 3 chords is a great idea, keeps it simple. To anyone confused what he means by position 1, position 2 etc. it just refers to the 5 positions of the pentatonic scale.

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@PE1978C]

Great lesson! For those who may be confused about the "positions" here, they are the 5 pentatonic patterns. I have learned them, but am now starting to associate them with the 5 CAGED shapes, as papastache is showing us here. To add even more confusion (not on purpose, but bear with me), each pentatonic pattern can be associated with two CAGED shapes. Now to clear it up: That's because the patterns overlap. The end of one pattern is the same as the beginning of the next pattern.

[@BrettPapa]

That's a great combo. I go over that a lot. Thanks for watching!

[@Sidechainkik]

I've been playing for over 40 yrs and that was the best description of the pentatonic scale ever thank you SGT Huey Falls USMC Ret.

[@luiscarlos3637]

Man, that is the kind of lesson from a master teacher. Excellent way to learn, best i have ever seen. Many thanks 😎😎😎

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks! Sure thing! Thanks for tuning in!

[@peacemakerbear4559]

No shit! Thanks, it does finally click! I’m so damn excited I! Holy crap Batman! Your teachings have been so helpful and this one bam it all just clicked! You and Corey’s work together have been great also! So grateful! Thanks! Thanks for slowing it down and breaking it down! !!!!!!!

That is great to hear! Way to go!

Wow thanks! Glad it's working for you!

[@kennethochoa7550]

hey papastache ran into your tut and i never saw it taught like this before i'm a newbe to the blues and even though others teach the pentatonic u came at it from a different perspective thanks for the free cheat sheets i'm gonna give them a whirl

[@BrettPapa]

Thanks for checking out the vid! Glad it helped you out!

[@waynewoodrum3338]

Man keep posting what your teaching takes forever with others

[@BrettPapa]

Haha, I will! Glad it's helping you out!

[@jgrimes5353]

Thanks for this lesson. You have allowed me to see things from different perspectives which is very important for how I learn! Comparing the A shape to the first pentatonic position really opened my eyes.

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome! Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

[@howtodoit91]

Wow! I started playing in 2013 and I'm just now finding this in 2021. Better late than never I guess. Much Thanks!

You never cease to amaze me Papastache. I've been playing those chords and scales, but never thought about how the notes from the scale formed the chords. Knowledge is power! Thanks. : )

I was jst searching on youtube for someone who talks about how to know what scales to use over what chords and found exactly in this video what ive been lookin for.. thanks dude really helpful !!

I have to admit,that your style of teaching is very useful in real life.To explain the relation between chords and scales is what is,that you need to know and truly helps.BRAVO,Nicely done

Dude, I just found your channel last night after searching for what I was looking for, for weeks. I was beginning to think it was a lost cost, but unlike most other youtubers, your videos are highly relevant in developing guitar players. Awesome work!

Thanks so much! Welcome aboard.

Thank you so much, please keep on making videos. I am ripping all your licks, and learning a lot with your tricks. You explain things in a way that is really simple, but gives you the tools to dig deeper. All this while beeing fun and charming in the process. I might not comment in every video, but be sure I watch and enjoy them all. Keep on rocking!

Oh man that's awesome! Thanks so much. That makes it all worth while fore me! Thanks for staying tuned in!

Very well presented! I teach kids &sometimes older adults how to play & always have a problem explaining soloing.. This is an excellent representation of how & where. Very useful!

[@BrettPapa]

Thank you!

[@isaacjohnson.]

why why did it take me so long to finally find and watch this! this was fantastic. Ive watched your vids for a long time and you've said much of this before but this was short succinct and eye opening! It really clicked, and I liked that you covered both major and minor. great job Brett! Thanks!

[@BrettPapa]

You are welcome! Thanks for checking out the videos!

[@williamblair2447]

Papa was a Rolling Stone. Thanks to you, I'm roll'in it.

[@MrDustinclement]

I know this is an old video now but I’ve recently picked back up my guitars after about an 8 year gap and so I’m learning all these new things with the interwebz now and the CAGED system made sense and all but one of your other videos actually was the only one I found that actually showed why it’s so useful and it finally clicked for me. It’s everything man. It’s such a cool theory piece for learning and knowing where you’re at. But this video, it’s so good man. What a great way to show it all, and I got some new licks out of it! Thank you so so much!

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome! Glad to hear it has helped you! Thanks for checking it out!

[@pschlosb]

i don't think people realize how important this lesson is. Step by step I've been starting to understand the fretboard so much better now, and this is a capstone lesson really. Because rather than just doing scales which can sound good if you put feeling into them, this allows more specific knowledge and more control of my sound, so I feel like I am getting closer to developing some real expertise. I realize i'm not there yet but i can see some steps being made

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome! Way to go! Glad the video helped ya out! Thanks for watching!

[@alex1020]

Cool, using the chords as the target notes really helped me sound more melodic. The hardest thing is sometimes I get too focused on the chords and licks are hard to think of, I play the same thing over and over again. But this is where stuff like stacking and bending comes in!

[@BrettPapa]

+alex1020 I feel yuh happens to me still too haha! You are right though just concentrate on four or five notes at a time and the feel. you can tweak the same few notes a million different ways with bends.

Awesome lesson, I was just looking for it at my level, to unlock the shapes, I already knew all of them but when we need to solo over a key we must have it easy and fast to find any position, this just clarified things, awesome lesson, those "cheats" always help to improve even further theory and practicity in playing.
