How To Learn All The Arpeggios On Your Guitar

[@j5545]

Man when I have the money I'm gonna buy your course! You're the most amazing guitar teacher on KZbin. I can't even tell you how great full I am to you. You don't know how many fake and horrible teachers I've had, how much time I've wasted, this videos really mean so much for me. Since I was a little kid I've always wanted to play guitar

[@visitur4914]

No one who has seen The Karate Kid should ever underestimate an exercise because it looks simple.

[@jimrea3203]

Hotel California outro is an excellent example of arpeggios, and I love your teaching style 🎉

[@EmaKurosakiRHCP]

I've just started doing this but with a chord progression loop as background and that's usually from a song I like to play/jam over. That's sounds logically more musical and when I go back to playing that song, improvising solos gets much more easier and fun so it's a double benefit for me. I don´t think it's as effective as the method you've just described as you practice more focused here but it's more enjoyable for sure. I wish I realised how important this is earlier, and the same goes to finding this channel. Really good quality content, makes self teaching way simpler. Thanks for sharing!

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

You can totally do this with a backing track is it's more enjoyable, just make sure that every now and then you do a 'dry run' without the track, so make sure that you are not relying on the backing track too much. Thanks for commenting!

[@mattkirkhamm]

I have a hard time concentrating and there is something about your voice that makes me pay attention. You a great teacher :)

[@YONIthebassist]

Thank you man you are one of the 5 pepole in KZbin that are significantly helping man you are amazing

[@lokaaryanreddy3459]

Who are the other 5

[@tommccarthy1443]

Brilliant! Never seen arps taught that way but it makes a lot of sense, especially in learning the fretboard.

[@chryslercartography9024]

Love the guitar modification with just two pick ups. Really like this video tutorial !

[@traviscarver4708]

This is such an important video and this technique opens up so many doors.

[@iam_tyrone]

Wow man.. this video is just a great reminder to stop over complicating your life and experiment and find your way..... excellent video....

[@Jpirani00]

Alright, my guy, you are helping so many people. I've told everyone that rudiment style learning is the way to go and everyone always says they do it, but they fail to understand that you need to start very slow and increase by double speed until you mess up. Forward and backwards, then random. You do a very good job of articulating and demonstrating how one should approach practice. You got a sub, keep it up.

[@Kreativgitarrenunterricht]

Thank you for your inspirations. You are the best 🎸

[@markoburrows]

What a great exercise. Thank you Sir!

[@ashleyispresent]

such a good excercise for the brain

[@Chimp_No_1]

Incredibly helpful. Thanks.

[@redstrat1234]

This connects really well to your 'finding the notes on the fretboard' video - very valuable for finding the root note of the arpeggio. Great info.

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

Yes, all those exercises connect together. Thanks!

[@JohanTillgren]

This is a great exercise, it could be used for literally anyone, from beginner to really advanced. Thank you for this Tommaso!

[@brycegorman2383]

Wow, instant humble juice. Time to practice, thanks Tommaso

[@svincentr]

I got the same bridge on my Strat! 🤘🏽🎸

[@danielhunter8255]

Does random progression to illustrate point... SOUNDS AWESOME!

[@HarbingerOfAnarchy]

3:07 I don't understand, we have to learn the shape of each selected arpeggio, that is, we must already know their shape before we start the exercise? Is it permissible to look at the diagram of selected arpeggios? (just like you allowed to look at the notes, in the video about learning the notes).

[@Sandarpan]

This exercise is fun and very very helpful. I have all my 5th and 6th string notes down cold and have no problem playing chords in any order, ascending. Descending is a whole different ballgame. Since now I have no root note to help me identify the chord, it really puts my brain into 4th gear to actually trace back the arpeggio to the root note on the 5th or 6th string, all while playing the previous chord. So a word of caution. use only the top strings as most of you already know the patterns ascending.

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

Yes, it's important to learn the notes on the top strings as well, and especially when soloing you should NOT refer to the 5th and 6th strings, but find the notes on the top strings instead.

[@marcvermeiren4490]

A triad is 3 notes, yes. What is the 4 note then?

[@tom434911]

@@marcvermeiren4490 The fourth note would be an octave of one of the notes of the triad. For example, going from low pitch to higher pitch, a 4 note ascending G major arpeggio would be G-B-D-G. If you were playing an inversion of G major, so the lowest note is the 3rd or 5th instead of the root, it would be B-D-G-B or D-G-B-D.

[@hassanbayomy7566]

Brilliant lesson, so happy that i found your channel

[@tcrearth]

Thanks , sounds like good advice.

[@neilmarsh7437]

brilliant stuff I'm really happy I found your channel thanks

[@GrantSchinto]

That exercise makes perfect sense. Thanks for the lesson.

[@nkobik]

Thank you so much for this! Brilliant as your other videos 🙌 A question - the order of the notes (which 4 notes I’m playing) do not matter? If I see correctly, in your first example for C you’re playing C G E C (rather the “original” scale degrees C E G)

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

You can play them in any order you like :-) It's still an arpeggio of the same chord. The important part is what notes are in, not the order.

[@ransbarger]

You are awesome! Plus I was always a Father Guido Sarducci fan.

[@dhaneshs131]

Thank you Tommaso... Another great tip... Very useful

[@interestingthings8598]

This is also a listening exercise in a way.

[@jeffwiggins4048]

Awesome! Great ideas for making it more fun while practicing an important skill!

[@CleatSurfer]

Love the idea of this exercise and love your videos. I wish someone could please tell me what is wrong with CAGED. It's a very easy concept but seems hard until you get it. But once that happens, you feel like you've finally unlocked the fretboard. CAGED was my transition from just knowing how to play open chord shapes(put your fingers here, here and here) to actually understanding it and having a breakthrough of potential. If I had to think of a limitation, I feel like it created a shortcut to learning the whole fretboard navigating by shape and other references. It opened a door for me and I feel like I walked through it and moved on.

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

Hi Joe. I personally don't like the CAGED system, as I think there are better systems. I made a video series on this a few years ago, you can find it on this very channel. Warning: it IS a controversial topic.

[@f0reverm0r]

Excellent lesson! Thank you!

[@kukumuniu5658]

Hi :) could You bring me/us closer to the Generic Modality Compression issue.(from Mick Goodrick book) Two chords,on ii & iii degree of scale, with tonic i degree in the lowest voice,right? For c ionian it is Dm and Em chords with note c in lowest voice? (This is all?) And now how can we use this formula musically to avoid sounding like ordinary exercises?

[@renejohnkerkdyk5006]

Great exercises. So useful! Thank you, Tommaso

[@ironmench]

Hi, I wanted to ask. You have 2 courses that sound great, master of the modes and complete chord mastery. I'm very intrested in learning more but could probably take only one of them for now. I wanted to take master of the modes but I really want to work on my rhythm technique also. What whould you suggest? Thank you

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

Hi. I'd have to ask you some more things so we can figure out what works best for you. Please write me at [e-mail]

I'm just wondering what's wrong with the CAGED system? I feel like it's helped me a lot in some areas, is it holding me back in others?

[@hollowbodymusic]

Nice lesson! Also those shelves need some books! 😂

[@acousticguitarlessons9053]

Great lesson Tommaso. Thanks! :)

[@stevenmonte7397]

8 days... I finally got the first video up to 100bpm. I feel like I am learning the fretboard (been doodling for about 8 months).

[@joecaner]

I like it! it's the Mozart method: _"Ten minutes of ghastly scales. Arpeggios! Whizzing up and down like fireworks at a fairground."_ But slowly and deliberately while one builds up the skill in the attempt to achieve Mozart like proficiency.

[@mabblers]

Are you doing this only on one string, or find the cord progression on all the strings?

[@No1Particular]

Can you explain a little why it is you don't like the CAGED method for learning the fretboard and melodic/harmonic patterns and structures on the guitar? I enjoy your thoughtful approach to guitar theory concepts and practice. Thank you for the very helpful pointers and advice.

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

I have a few videos on this channel on it. I never finished the series (criticizing a system is BORING), but you can find something useful in these videos. Here's the first: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnSzYpWvhrOgeJI

[@texasprenegade]

What's wrong with the CAGED system? I find it a useful tool to build dyads, triads, find chord tones, build more complex scales, etc.

[@jazznotes3802]

Texas P Renegade It’s the most popular guitar method to come by for sure and everyone these days seem to be using it. But that doesn’t automatically mean it’s a good approach to take. You’ll find there’s much better ways to approach the guitar than the CAGED System, if you do some digging. Sure, you can make it work, but it has a LOT of limitations and it’s far from a complete system. That’s why most players never use it exclusively! I know the CAGED System myself, (inside out) but I’m now moving away from it and using the “Three Note Per String System,” as it’s a complete system within itself.

[@blacklab282]

Cool stuff, Thanks!

[@leosmith5266]

Thanks, Tommaso!

[@desider7973]

How do I know what notes comprise an arpeggio I’m still confused in this I’ve seen other videos explaining patterns and such but I’m still confused on what I should be searching for. Is it just the triad of a particular chord or how is it built??

[@MusicTheoryForGuitar]

Yes, arpeggio and triads are the same thing. The notes in the C major arpeggios are C E G, exactly like the notes in the C major triad. The difference is that when you play an arpeggio you play one note at a time rather than all together. If you need help with the basics, I have a free eBook that may help you here: www.musictheoryforguitar.com/beginningmusictheoryguide.html

Always good stuff, but you could have shown close-ups of the arpeggios that you used, and maybe point out the 3 basic 3 note arpeggios off the root. (Shrug).

[@lulubellers]

But beard hair on top is another way of looking at things musically.

[@Kyrelel]

Unfortunately, this lesson to "Learn All The Arpeggios On Your Guitar" is meaningless if you haven't already learnt all the arpeggios :/ Should be "How to Practice All The Arpeggios On Your Guitar"
