How To Use The Mixolydian Scale | Plus 5 Lick Examples

[@joeliska313]

These licks are all applicable with nearly all primary scales: Major and Minor Blues, Dorian, Aeolian, Melodic and Harmonic Minors, let alone Ionian and Lydian. Thank you for not feeding into the mental blocks, but instead showing us how to break down the walls. One of, if not THE, best lessons I've seen! THANK YOU!!

Simply the best teacher with the most interesting material on the internet

[@tnvalleyyoga7122]

Thanks, Jack for taking something that seems complicated in the mind of an intermediate player and showing how simple it really is. I have your program from TF and it has increased my playing and knowledge.

Jack is the Supreme Master of a new school of guitar, that i call affectionately "know-soul", that means: play with soul and knowledge. Thanks, Jack, to be our game changer teacher!

[@JackRuch]

I love it!

[@woodshed_moments]

Dude, you have the right attitude for teaching and instruction, I wish you the best

[@Sammywhat]

I just saved this into my "always keep" file! Your teaching style is only surpassed by your playing style! Such a treat!! Thank you, Mr. Ruch! Cheers!!

[@torontolarrivee7965]

This is great - I like your style of illustrating the scale, using patterns that help familiarize with the scale, rather than a single-purpose riff.

[@davidt9841]

Mornin' Jack, 🥶 here in Minnesota! A little over a month ago, I purchased 'Player's Perspective' because I Love the way you teach! To all viewers..if you're not subscribed - why not? Let's support Jack, and keep this great content - coming! 👍🎸✌😎

[@JackRuch]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@VicSharmaMusic]

This is probably one of the most profound lessons I have come across to help me with phrasing. Thanks so much Jack!

[@robertblake3909]

Your exercises really make me learn the fretboard, especially the arpeggios. Like it. Thank you

[@kailiebejung]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I barely can affort the equipment but can´t affort a teacher. You are great!

[@robertscherer8860]

Jack this lesson alone is worth a yearly membership! It’s so cool to learn the neck in an interesting and very musical manner. Thanks Jack. Proud to be a patron member.

[@quozr]

Great ! Of all the hundreds of videos I've watched on modes. this is the best explation and demonstration I've seen. Well done. Subscribed.

[@stephenhanlin2388]

Nobody does it like you. Thank you Jack!

[@jakollee]

Great lesson, great examples! Before I knew this was called the mixolydian mode, I always called it The Jerry Garcia Scale.

[@FrancisFurtak]

Hey Jack, great job at teaching! Nice, simple and slow so everyone can understand. My motto is the slower you go the faster you learn. I also used to tell my students that 5 mins. a day is worth more than just an hour on Saturday!

[@vltjd]

Thanks for not only demonstrating the scale but showing how to apply the scale.

[@victorformosa228]

As usual Jack another great lesson put across with your laid back approach, looking forward to getting into this. Thanks.

[@marcinbreczko4777]

Been eagerly waiting for a new video, Jack! I'll definitely steal one or two of these mixolydian lines. I'd be great to see one of your gigs on your channel as well. All the best from Poland!

[@JackRuch]

Thank you!

[@dmc549]

What an incredible lesson. Thank you so much Jack.

[@modernmusicstudio303]

You make it look so effortless! Great lesson!

[@MezzMcGillicuddy1]

This is great! Thank you!!

[@RedLion88]

Great stuff. I mainly use mixolydian in a rock and blues context but these tricks are what I need to break out of some habits.

[@ruifernandes5340]

Before there was just a big confusion and frustration. Thanks for teaching US how it is done. Life changing.

[@stanolivo3658]

My all time favorite guitar teacher and guitar player on the web. Thank you kind sir for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@JackRuch]

Thank you Stan!

[@scrumpymanjack]

Killer lesson. THE definitive take on the good ol’ mixolydian.

[@jwuman]

The best mixolydian breakdown on the tube....thx Jack!!...

[@paulsnyder7538]

Excellent instruction Jack.

[@BlackMath69]

these approaches are great..exactly what I need... more like this please

[@russellmetzger1499]

Thank you Jack for not spending the first 9 minutes of BS before getting to the point. Second, absolutely the best explanation of using the mixolydian scale, and the drills to increase one’s effectiveness using it.

[@JazzStrat781]

Fantastic content as always Jack 👍🎸 best to you and yours

[@rockgtr35]

Your tone is always so wonderful!

[@johnmac8084]

Oh dear, I thought I knew my scales/modes quite well. I've got some work to do.😀 Great lesson Jack, thanks

[@billmoran935]

Best explanation I’ve found. Thank you

[@smithfield06]

Superb lesson, going to practice these thank you 🙏

[@lalalovengun]

My all time favorite scale!!💙🩵💖✨

[@John_Doe657]

Great lesson. I don’t know much theory but i can hear what mode is played by its tonality. I’m really into combining the mixolydian scale with the blues and pentatonic scale.

[@whistlemusic8572]

Great video brother! Getting some Jerry vibes love it !

[@RandomVelocity]

My favorite mode for jamming

[@makesiemmanuel1078]

Sir, this was a masterclass. Thanks you!

[@JeremyChildress]

I really like sequences Reminds me the Allman Brothers and more specifically Dickey Bets style and sound.

[@guitarplayer5932]

learn the major scale and its 5 patterns then you know all the modes, start with a different pattern it becomes a different mode this pattern is no different than what you already know

[@cosmocalypse3708]

While what you said is technically correct, it doesn't help (I'd argue it actually hurts) you in knowing what to play. The most useful way to think of G mixolydian is that it's G major with a flat 7, not that it's the 5 mode of C major. You wouldn't use a G mixolydian scale over a progression in C major. If that's confusing, Sweet Home Alabama isn't in the key of G. It's D mixolydian.

[@wallofrock6725]

@@cosmocalypse3708yet, Ed played the solos in Sweet Home Alabama in G modified mixolydian with D triads 🤣 Rossington confirmed the song is V IV I in a guitar article years ago. How has Lynyrd Skynyrd always resolved the song in a live setting? In G. You learned something today.

[@cosmocalypse3708]

@@wallofrock6725 there is no such thing as "G modified mixolydian" You're just making up garbage. Ending on a non root chord is common in skynyrd. The song isn't in G.

[@randalltindall282]

GREAT LEASON JACK!!! Thanks for posting

[@stickman55100]

Brilliant as ever and applicable to building a broader melodic vocabulary. Thank you.

[@dweezl01]

Tout touch is so smooth Jack 🙏🥰 ! What is your guitar pick please ? Cheers from a French fan 🇫🇷🎸🥰

[@edwardroche8326]

Very nice indeed. Thanks!

[@peti802]

Addictive lesson!

[@ericwalker4996]

Awesome!! Great lesson new sub

[@jeradmang]

So at 4:50 you are playing over a g7 vamp...when is the scale viable over a progession?...would it be when in the key of C but the progression uses G as the home base? When progession has the G tonality leading in the key of C is that a signal to use mixolydian G mixolydian and make it work over a progession?

[@DeGroove]

Great stuff Jack, very soulful playing. I recently bought your TrueFire course and I’m really loving it. One thing that bugs me though is that the tabs aren’t visible in the breakdown video parts, only with the performance. But other than that, top notch! Take care.

[@MNGuitars]

U can actually hear a little bit of Frampton in these phrases! Great lesson

[@clust11]

And Santana

[@tnvalleyyoga7122]

I thought if I started on a D (we flatten the 7th and the 3rd) and play a scale with no sharps or flats I would be playing a D Dorian scale. I know that the D is the perfect 5th to the G Major chord, so in one example you started your G Mix. on a D. Is this because you are playing over a G7 that would still give it a G Mix. sound? Thanks.

[@adeepoberoi1130]

great video, is there also a pentatonich mixolydian?

[@QBRX]

Very nice, thanks!

[@philipjones7372]

Thank you👍🏼🎵

[@bluesdawg8014]

Awesome Jack Thanks bro Los Angeles

[@motoputz3201]

kool stuff! thanks

[@Galenalicia11]

I may sound stupid but are you playing the mix over a cord or over a g cord? Please

[@j.r.goldman3279]

Jack I am looking for A tele Squire. Maybe 300 400 bucks. What would you recommend? If you have one In mind?

Amazing!

Tremendous!!!

[@Stringprodigy]

I think learning those scale patterns is limiting. If you learn the sound of the scale cold in one octave, you can use your ears to guide yourself around rather than relying on a.preset pattern. Just my opinion.
