How to Learn Scales Effectively

[@dannydaniels4387]

Hello Kiko, I got to see most of your recent lives. A tropical storm took our power for a few days, so I missed number 2 altogether, lol. What I saw was great. Practical , no nonsense, and you do a great job of taking the scariness out of it. I think you have a really good thing going with a good vibe to it as well.

[@pharris125]

100% agree

[@D-Man_Jam]

_Imagine the guitarist from a huge Metal band had his own KZbin channel, where he takes time out of his day and gives free advice, and lessons._

[@mustaine566]

@Afonso Topa Exactly . he gives quality free lessons while I also giving classes to.

[@sudeephembrom325]

@Afonso Topa agree man.....

[@jewell339]

[@guismth]

Super nice guy too!

[@Fafa_Sauce]

Yeah that'd be crazy bro

[@nereneren]

You are a legend guitarist and still you are trying to teach scales. You are GREAT!

[@avmetalcovers]

You are correct man...

[@ersankuneri2689]

exactly

[@MoeedKazi]

He is absolutely a gem, down to earth ... extremely talented... and wants to see everyone succeed... and that's why we all love him dearly.....😀😄😆

[@jomanaaa4758]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@JoseMendoza-dl2xx]

He's doing it for future guitarist

[@kostamamoulelis9326]

You are a literal legend and you teach scales for beginners, that makes you even more of a legend

[@wesleyloureiro3605]

to esperando o mundo descobrir o edu

[@Luucaas11]

Sabe o que seria maneiro? Edu Ardanuy e Eloy Casagrande no Metallica... Aí seria um duelo muito mais justo com Kiko e Dirk kkkkkkkk

[@Aurich55]

Hahahahah ai sim

[@raidenxgamerx5541]

Hi kiko thank you for all these videos its an honor to see a legend here teaching a lot of important things about guitar you are great!!

[@MsDavo123]

Incredible lesson I was quite amazed that in modern fusion series you start from teaching to find A minor and A major triad over all strings I benefited a lot from that one also the way you show there how to find Lydian mode over all strings playing the root on different strings is just fantastic-and now I have this lesson it all comes together like different pieces of puzzle !

[@hateinferno]

Thank you. I just started learning the scales!

[@poyrazkarayel131]

Adamsın kardeşim ,Love from Türkiye,thank you from my heart that you never changed ,always stay good brother,world needs people as you

[@katshredder]

Thank you, Kiko. Your method "stopping on triad notes" helps me memorizing each scale a lot.

[@davidvashum3572]

For beginners he literally is teaching modes which is the coolest thing about guitars let us appreciate him....love to Kiko

[@rfdc]

After I started approaching the guitar and music in general from a chord perspective and not from the scales my understanding and playing improved. Chords come first, and the scales are build around them. When soloing over a given chord you have to focus on the main notes (root, 3rd, 5th and any important variation) the rest of the notes are almost like passing notes.

[@plamenivanov5900]

Huge respect from Bulgaria! I'm sure we all very much appreciate the things you teach us. Thank you!

[@vishalagarwal4507]

Awesome stuff, Kiko! Learning from a legend himself is an honour! In spite of having such a busy schedule, taking out time to teach guitar concepts and techniques here is really commendable and we are extremely thankful to you for it. Please keep the awesome stuff coming. 😍

[@TheMeJustMe75]

After playing guitar for over 30 years, Kiko is still teaching me things that I have forgotten or learn things from a different perspective.

[@gorutra]

Just what I needed. Thanks for relating to so many level of your fans. Legend!

[@kikoloureiroofficial]

Happy to help!

[@deboravilellaconrado5870]

[@CarlosRibeiroRC]

Kiko, você é realmente um Tesouro! Obrigado por compartilhar conhecimento com o mundo.

[@thomasswoodward]

You're such a good dude. Thanks for this. Your genuine passion for music and sharing understanding is so apparent.

[@lynxbrickstein5397]

How can someone dislike this?! A class act guitarist/person taking time out of his life to teach us scales. Thank you Kiko!

[@namesareoverrated6027]

Love your stuff dude, wish you everlasting healthy and happiness

[@lucaantonioerminioboni2411]

Thanks a lot for your time to us. Luca

[@soulcaliber256]

This is main thing the "TRIAD" the 1,3,5 best lesson but very powerful tool to improve some melodic solos, Respect to this Brazilian legend guitarist sir kiko :) so far this is the best

[@gitarmats]

Kiko is such a cool guy!

[@avmetalcovers]

The legendary guitarist here is folks teaching ya all life changing lessons... Appretiate sir kiko... Love from #nepal

[@oscarcardozoj]

Thanks Kiko for giving us all your wisdom, I follow you From colombia.

[@thunder-mations550]

Kiko, tenho orgulho de ver um cara (muito profissional) como vc fazendo esse tipo de video para dar uma força pra galera. Tem a manha e humildade pra dar uma força dessas. Continue assim. Video muito util.

[@LucasSantos-wp7ji]

Valeu pela dica kiko! Eu tenho uma péssima memória pra decorar as escalas, mas um dia eu chego lá

[@DomesticTruther]

The way you teach vibes with the way I learn. Grateful man. Really. I hear and see what you're saying. Thanks Kiko. Also. I think I tend to instinctively go for the right sounding note improv, thus the scale, but my playing lacked direction, purpose, and even if the intonation sounds sick or a sweet pinch, it's awful in the wrong context. Looking back on my life I took that approach in a lot of things. That's why I didn't play for 20 years.... I want to understand it all now, and for me the destination is the journey... again thanks

[@shubguitar1730]

Thanks so much Kiko! After almost 2 moths of digging into fretboard visualization, I finally found an effective method for playing complex chords across the neck with 3 notes per string scales, and hit chord tones in my metal playing.

[@GuitarBlastApp]

This is an awesome lesson. Thanks

[@gaipou6982]

This is what I have been looking for about and I literally found here! My vacation is almost over but anyways I have to do this! Thank you, Kiko. You’re always osm.

[@Toys4JokerJoe]

Thank you Kiko!! Your lessons are helpful to my playing and my practicing 😎😂. I’m grateful in how you take time and share your knowledge. You’re kindness is refreshing! Ciao’ for now 🤘

[@emiliofernandezvillasante]

Gracias por la clase magistral master.

[@frankcqIII]

Thank you Kiko! My improv progress had flatlined years ago and your video is a big help in breaking me out of my plateau. I stopped improvising because I became bored hearing myself improv! Lol. Thanks for the video!

[@dotaexperience264]

Kiko your videos are so inspiring, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us you re so kind !!

[@ekpiyalichai]

Hope to get a guitar soon and reboot my passion. Thank you for all the great lessons (basics-intermediates-advanced+random nuggets of wisdom). ☕

[@darylm.stephens9603]

Kiko thank you for giving these lessons and your knowledge ! 🎸

[@jameshetfield9915]

I dont know why, but I can listen to you talking for hours without getting bored. You're amazing guitar Player!

[@NLongleng]

This is an awesome lesson Kiko, Thank you very much.

[@ph20124]

OMG!! What an astonishing tone😲

[@flipkip126]

I was trying to learn the scales a long time. But don’t exacly how to do it. With this advice I can finally go futher and I understand where to stop now before I take a next step. 😁🤘

[@ffernandes777]

Excelente exercício!! Muito bom tanto para iniciante quanto para quem já toca a algum tempo!! Estou aproveitando a ideia para outras escalas exóticas e também para praticar as tensões do modalismo! Obrigado Kiko!!

[@k9991-ot]

Can you please guide us on how to make melodic improvisations out of the scale positions?? By the way,big fan and great respect for you, Sir🙏

[@monocyte2210]

awesome practice advise!! i will definitely use this

[@yeahtim7023]

Thanks very much~ Kiko 🤘 Great Lesson 👍

[@mustaine566]

I love how Kiko these free videos.

[@woodward_alan]

Kiko, always appreciative of your teachings which are making this journey for me enjoyable and fruitful.

[@DorothyOzmaLover]

Interesting topic here since you're focusing on melodic solos which as a guitarist for bk trailers where I play primarily melodies and love hearing melodies, I liked your goal here. Nice demonstration of moving patterns around the neck and making the scales sound melodic!

[@DiamonF]

Muito bom... Ficou facil de compreender e a funcionalidade disso e infinita. E difícil achar professores falando sobre métodos de adquirir fluência no braço da giitarra. Vlw Kiko... Abraço

[@Enrick1722]

Grande Kiko, ídolo, sos el campeón de mí adolescencia en la viola. Kiko! Kiko! Ra! Ra! Ra!

[@luizfelipemadeirademacedo5569]

[@FaithfulReasoning]

I wish this existed why i was young, makes so much sense to practice like this

[@anayaksmith7904]

You are amazing,one of the technical guitar player

[@abhijit_thapa]

Nobody: KZbin captions: " Hey guys geeko here...."

[@EddieTheMessenger]

Thank you, this was a good lesson from Brooklyn, New York

[@therealandrecorbin4050]

Kiko is easy to like, very good personality. If you practice scales fervently you can knock out 2 birds with one stone so to speak. Intense alternate picking exercises and scale memorization go hand in hand in my experience. Now go practice.

[@megashewolf81]

Hola Kiko! Yes, i would love you show more exercises. 🎸

[@charliegarcia8330]

thanks Kiko ... you are the best

[@medicinagamboahuertas175]

@kikoloureiro Thank you, this class helped me a lot, basic, practical and effective.

[@waltherclarencemenina8298]

Man, thank you for giving free lessons. You are doing so much for us who can't afford to get lessons. P.S. I'd take online lessons from Kiko anytime of the day over local guitar teachers.

[@danielcalvo8152]
