Intro to Fretboard Mastery // Lesson 1// Guitar Improvisation series

[@sangiansang]

Where have you been all my life???? thank you!

[@uchennabenjamin2675]

I've being wasting my time and Mb searching for a well organized guitar lesson on youtube; not knowing that my sister has all it takes to make me the best. More grace Helen! Your lessons has changed everything.

[@tntwashpro3863]

My 18yr old daughter would love to learn how to play. This is the first time I've come across your videos. I just purchased her a acoustic guitar. I will be sharing your channel with her. I will also subscribe myself. Thank you for sharing your gift.

[@HelenIbemusic]

Thank you! please say Hi to your daughter for me and welcome to my channel! :)

[@tntwashpro3863]

@@HelenIbemusic could recommend a few guitars to purchase for her?

[@imnotmark3053]

Mike A it might be hard doing this on an acoustic might want to invest in electric

[@jahissa]

Its great to see such a beautiful queen with a great talent. What an inspiration

[@henryclay8462]

I have been playing a number of years so I am an advanced player. I only watch because I enjoy your teaching style, and your playing. Being attractive of course makes the teaching all the more enjoyable.

[@HelenIbemusic]

Wow Thank you so much!! Means a lot.

[@ah2013a]

Henry Clay same here , I just like watching Helen play and teach with the beautiful smile and joy on her face. It is so refreshing after all the years of playing.

[@JasonGabler]

Something I realized while watching is that this is actually a great way to learn how chords are built. You could do the same thing with chords. Once you do these exercises to learn the fretboard by string, you can call out the notes as you lay down your fingers for chords. Once you have both down, you can use this to create different inversions

[@tuttyusbuttyus]

Thanks for posting this. Adding this my practice notes.

[@ericcrawford9827]

Knowing the root note is important. Basic guitar lessons free on the internet are rare. Keep smiling Helen. X

[@makelyaabaisa3135]

Watching, listening and practice: one big happy family! Thank U! God Bless u! U make this mother of two grown up kids happy! U help me to believe in practice!

[@phineaskahaa1534]

[@ashokshanusankesh4116]

[@tshoganetsobaliki2473]

just bought a new acoustic guiter i dont know anything about a guiter i hope i will learn a lot from this beautiful lady

[@omoadoni1216]

Sound like the best lesson on the internet about how to master your fretboard. I really have not come across a better one even from so called top schools. Bravo lady!!

[@HelenIbemusic]

Wow, thanks!

[@bayardkudy2453]

I've gone through so many videos on improvisation. After watching this one I see things in a simpler way now though they are pretty harder on acoustic. You have a very good sytematical approach to guitar as a whole. Thanks very much Helen. I'm definitelty going to recommend your channel to my friendds who want to learn guitar. THanks again 🙏

[@tuttyusbuttyus]

EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I'm going through your beginner series as well to help me slow down, tighten up some basics, and unlearn some not-so-good habits. I've been "playing" off and on for almost 2 decades, but have never really been able to get past beginner. I know most of the chord shapes and can switch fairly well between most of them. Your beginner video on switching between D & G for example was HUGE for me, because it helped me learn that I can sometimes cheat or graduate into the next chord instead of always removing all of my fingers then quickly placing them in the shape of the next chord. I've realized that learning the fretboard is, as you said, the thing that will take me to that next level of playing. This video is so helpful and exactly what I've been looking for to get there. THANK YOU for helping me get closer to realizing my dream of playing live one day.

[@HelenIbemusic]

I'm so glad i was able to help.....this means a lot. thank you

The best Channel guitars! Congratulations! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@leahgodson2319]

Still practicing. I like the step by step approach here; building on simple concepts. I started with one finger as recommended here and now I am a bit more comfortable with all 4 fingers. Now to master the part of the lesson playing the scales across the fretboard (from 8:12) and then finding notes (from 11:58). Thanks again Helen.

[@adaneagago1987]

[@Frankrypto]

On point. I know it's weird for a beginner to say something like that. But i do feel the same way about improvisation, which can't be talk but heavily relies on your understanding about music over time.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and making it understandable. I hate when someone says, “okay now all you have to do is this…” and then they proceed to shred the fingerboard. I have decided those people are not really trying to teach but to show off. Also….love your background!
