How to SEE walk-ups & walk-downs on the fretboard

[@jledford5644]

Very good explanation.most musicians know and understand this, but cannot explain any of it. Thank you 😊

On this 19 minute video I must have spent over an hour and a half studying it. The experience was pure joy. I need to view it again. I love the way he explained this. Scale Degrees is the way to go in my opinion. And his "FretMonster" is great for this. What was confusing for a second was, at 10:15, David talked about the G Chord but was still showing the Scale Degree for the C Chord. But I realized where the 1-3-5 for the G Chord were, so I understood. What I've seen out of most all guitar teachers on the web is that they teach what notes to hit for a Bridge for a certain song. You have to use rote memory, going over and over the notes played in order to remember them. You aren't taught the "why" of why you're hitting these notes. So if you want to learn another song, you have to go through the same laborious process. David here appears to teach the "why", so I'm going to dig deeper in his teaching to see if this is the case. The only teacher I've ever found who explains the "why" is the guy who wrote the booklet "Planetalk". And David here in this video appears to do a similar thing, but comes from a different angle which I'm finding helpful so far. I also just found a fella named Brian Kelly, and he appears to take it from yet a different angle, but I'll have to see. Anyway, I think David has what I need. I'm going to Patreon to support him and learn more. I guess I'd better go there since I can't for the life of me find the pdf for this lesson on his website. Ha ha!

What a great lesson. It really pulls it all together. Not just seeing patterns but tying it in to the chord degrees.

Walk-ups & walk-downs using "I walk the line" by Johnny Cash is what I hear...Great lesson David!

By far the best video on this subject on KZbin. Thank you for taking time to do this.

[@carloskaste9337]

Hello, just say that I admire the work you do with your video lessons, the best you can find on KZbin, congratulations, greetings from Spain

David, this is such a GREAT lesson to accompany your last walkup and walkdown lesson! Your FRETMONSTER tool is amazing and I have been sharing the link with my friends and encouraging them to subscribe to your page (many have). Thanks for the amazing content!

[@DocBism]

Great explanation, great charts, great teaching!

[@dhyansuryam982]

for This i was looking very long Thanks a lot !!

[@sparadial2432]

SO MUCH EASIER THAN OTHER VIDEO WITH THE 1-7 VERY CONFUSING YOUR THE BEST!

[@jimmythenoo365]

Starting to get it now. Thanks for following up on the previous lesson you mentioned. Clearly putting in a lot of work to produce these lessons.

[@scottwalton1232]

David, I am a middle aged (57) y/o beginner. Kind of a new hobby undertaken later in life. Wish I would have started earlier. I have run across quite a few of your lessons, and they are always fantastic material, and well put together. This lesson was no different, but almost created the epiphany moment for me. I am started to get this thing they call acoustic guitar. The only thing I would suggest is getting a sizeable towel, or brown wrapping paper and cover up that Terrapin in the back ground. It is distracting. :) Thanks for the great lesson!

[@edcurtis246]

Great video - clear and easy to follow!

[@RobertViani]

One of those a ha moments. Really like the way you present using the visuals.

[@blazemoyer]

Thanks again for the lesson. Going to your site to get the PDF.

[@billseldon5967]

Very good lesson! Keep em coming!

[@mussinata8133]

Awesome way to look at progressions, great job ;)

[@chriscooper9290]

Really well done here. I’m a fan. Just subbed.

[@warriorprincess1655]

Love your vids, thanks!

[@rickpollard2262]

Well done

[@freesk8]

Thanks! Great lesson! :)

I'm learning a 3 string Cigar Box Guitar, so does it mean that I can use your chart which will tell me what notes I can play as a walk down. I know I don't have your chord shapes, but, if a song is predominantly using D chords, or C chords, or G chords, (the Key), does that mean I can use the predominant root note on your chart for a walk down, or perhaps a walk up. Not probably explaining myself here?

[@sparadial2432]

HOLY CRAP..... I GET IT!!!

[@adiel7618]

Thank you for this

[@michaelmackenzie2569]

Thanks as always. I live for these walking vids. Are you playing a Taylor gs mini?

[@davidpots]

Yeah! GS mini, koa finish. Got it this past summer, love it!

[@maxwaver777]

Do B and F have their Key ? Not mentioned here ...thanks you so much

[@smalltimebennys2732]

i may have missed it over the first video and this one, but what is the method for walking between, say, the 4 and 5 in a scale? In C this would be G and F but I can't make it sound right.

[@yle5788]

Do you have a repository for fretmonster? I want to colorcode the 3rd and 5th in notes view.

[@Evan842Complex]

Are B chord and F chord homework for walk ups and downs?

[@davewilkinson2229]

It looks like a Taylor GS Mini in Koa

[@spikethelizard2313]

What guitar make and model is that??? Been after a small guitar like that!

[@paigesbirdtoys]

Looks like my Taylor GS Mini koa.

[@rustyhoops]

Yep that's what it is I got one a year ago..great guitar looks good and plays good🙂🙂

[@Simmonique]

Johnny Cash. Walk the Line 😉

[@choochoochooseyou]

I've been trying to learn just over a year and it still confuses the heck out of me when someone says "Here's a song in the key of..." before proceeding to list all the other notes. Sorry, Dave, it's obviously me not you.

[@lawsonlawson9806]

Dude. To much degree angle to the 2nd fifth stuff. Patterns and notes and chords I'm good

[@davemurphy2195]

you made it very very complicated

[@Man-oq6pf]

How do you walk A into G ? It’s a different key ???? Cheers
