I give Lee a lot of credit for doing this where all of youtube can see it. Sitting next to Pete would make most of us look inept.

[@alphakittyofficial]

Comfortably Dumb Wow! Thanks for the link! Not only did I learn that Pete has a beautiful family but also how he maintains that youthful glow. Thanks again.

[@Mr_Bollie]

@@StompSlaps Hey, he could sell that to Helene Fischer, I bet. ;) But yeah, I can so feel for Lee. It's really hard to wrap your brain around such things. But then again, every tiny step in the right direction feels like an epiphany. Like that A7->D7 shift Pete showed, that only requires slipping down a fret. :)

[@je7098]

The world needs more guys like Lee and Pete.

[@bottleneck1100]

In short - the technicality of the lesson assumes basic knowledge that Lee doesn't have yet.. which is why he isn't getting it. Very brave of Lee to put himself in this position on camera. Such a great humble guy in so many ways.

[@RichardXAGSU]

This is like when Michael Scott asks for Oscar to “explain this to me like I’m eight....”, then after the explanation says “why don’t you explain it to me like I’m five...”

[@therealdavegrohl1098]

The cool thing with Lee here, is that he’s right where most of us guitarists who watch these videos, are: Reasonably experienced, we can play, the equipment we have is not restricting our ability, etc. He’s asking the questions I’d want to ask :)

[@jimmymajcher6934]

when it's written "Pete" and "Captain" in the title, you know it's gonna be a good video

[@Matt-1d]

Oh Captain, my Captain! Kudos to the Lee for not being afraid to discuss his playing limitations and to show us how to break out of ruts. Truly a man of the people, which is one of the reasons his videos are so appealing.

[@CaptAnderton]

I haven’t laughed as much as we did at the end in years!

[@GeoffSweet]

CaptAnderton I dunno Cap, it was certainly on par with your Miku review a couple years back... I can STILL watch that and absolutely come unglued... great stuff, this is great. This provides a FANTASTIC antithesis addition to the lessons I take from Paulo Gilberto... Cheers guys.

[@cour1988]

CaptAnderton Y'all really need a rated R channel. We're missing out!!!

[@GeoffSweet]

cour1988 ..."sittin on a "D".... I saw Pete's face.... he caught it....!

[@gregstapp1684]

#inappropriatescat for the win .......

[@julschong]

And "finding all the little holes to fill in"

[@negromister]

Pete is a monster player, but he's confusing the hell out of the poor Captain. The whole thing could be summarized into: "you're in Dm, right? You know your minor pentatonic, so play that, and here's some notes you can add for colour. If we add X we get dorian, which sounds funky; if we add Y we get aeolian, which sounds folksy, etc." It's a gross oversimplification, but it's a start.

[@justinpalmer6098]

That's exactly what I need to know!

[@sacredgeometry]

English isnt his first language

[@alexrobertson1472]

Lee you are always so self deprecating about your guitar playing, I feel like im similar to you in that respect a common line from me "if im the best guitar player in the room...its not a very good room" but at the end of the day i think you are a really good player, you have a great feel and you hold rhythm solid as a rock in many different styles...it has been nice to see you improve so drastically over the last year or so, rock on man....and dont put yourself down so much!

[@julschong]

Pete's knowledge is just amazing. Comes so naturally. Of course there's thousands of hours of practice and playing behind it, but still. Bloody amazing

[@40spinup]

So nice to have such a genuinely nice person who doesn’t belittle or slam for getting stuff wrong. Pete you are an amazing person.

[@kjohner5305]

Cap' I applaud your bravery and self depreciation in this, and know you're not alone in your endeavor. Totally working on ways out of the box myself and totally enjoying this series of lessons, thanks so much!

[@stankers4952]

These are so good.. Everytime I watch them I catch on to something new. Pete is talking his language.. It's amazing.

[@TrippyTheShroom]

These are legitimately some of the better videos on the channel. Please keep doing them!

[@GeoffSweet]

Petes slide into notes and selection of said notes is beyond tasteful... I'm a fan. You guys are a good balance... soak this up.... tasteful playing done right...

[@adamlonghorn9341]

I don’t know whose idea this series was...but it is pure genius!! Amazing format and so many concepts explained. Works SO WELL for me. Huge thanks. Pete is amazing but Cap you sure got the feel.

[@MonkeyFencing]

Gents, absolutely the BEST lessons I’ve ever had. Lee asks exactly the same questions I would. Which is great psychoanalysis because Lee and I both over think playing and also lack a plan of note to land on. It is at once being planned and also not overthinking to allow your fingers to go outside of your normal muscle memory. Pete you are an epic teacher in this series. Please keep doing this! Thank you both and I bought the tracks.

[@Oris37]

This is why I gave up teaching..! This is why it takes years to play the guitar. But good on ya Pete for having the patience - and good on ya too Captain for sticking with it - just remember to listen and to take notes...

[@danishpete]

That's why I gave it up as well.... That and touring :-)

[@Oris37]

Yeah, I'm off the road too but that's mainly down to a spinal injury - an operation next month should sort that sucka out..! :-)

[@chuckyinges]

You guys seriously make Andertons looked like a guitar heaven! Kudos for the hardwork and effort behind every video!

[@user-rg5bz3bg6m]

I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years. Self taught, and like lee, I'm stuck inside the box. I love these videos. Lee is, in my mind an awesome guitar player. Pete is very musically inclined. I love these videos. Although I may only be taking 10% of it in like Lee, they're still killer. Thank you guys for awesome content. I watch you guys every day from the U.S. in the state of Kentucky. Ive maid it a goal of mine to visit your music store. Thanks for being awesome guys! Much love!

[@cesararias4633]

29:54 best line of the whole thing by the captain! Keeping it simple! I´m loving these videos man! Much love from Barcelona!

[@nicolasp700]

Pete is incredible... His sense of music is so good and I feel dumb when he speaks. Such a great person

[@markstanbrook5578]

Thank you so much for putting the album of backing tracks together. As a complete novice, the tracks, a quick look at Bea's lesson on the pentatonic scale, plus these two lessons are all I needed to suddenly be able to improvise something that sounded vaguely like music! Can't wait to see what comes next!

[@nightwishlover8913]

P...ETE! After downloading the backing tracks I can only conclude that you are a Genius! Not only did you write the tracks, but played guitar (obviously!), Bass, Drums AND Keys and presumably produced and recorded them! My hat is off to you, Sir! They make me want to keep picking up my guitar and playing things I've never played before, which can't be bad! Kudos to you and thanks.

[@sph33_]

Thank you for these videos it’s great to see how someone as talented as Pete approaches the guitar.

[@snellyd]

thanks Lee i'm on that level like you and i adore the playing of Pete because he is so good and smooth , it's great to bring it on youtube for so many players thanks Pete and Lee

[@luvin2fly]

I really enjoy you guys. Even though theres an ocean separating us. Im learn so much from you two. CL the joy you gotten when you learned your lick from DP, was awesome.

[@GraemeCampbellMusic]

Another great lesson. I teach some of this stuff & Pete is doing a great job, and I’m still learning loads too. It’s great to hear someone else’s approach

[@RRW276]

LOVE all the backing tracks... but so far, what I've learned from this series has allowed me to enjoy the HELL out of playing along with Issac Newtons blues, Back in Bacon & most especially Torn & Braised. I did some really cool stuff w/ that one! Lee mentioned his box he was wanting out of. Well, I've been in my own box for twenty some odd years & I'm beginning to really step out of it w/ the help of DP & the vids. Thank you kind sirs!

[@LuiyoSA]

Pete's feeling is superb

[@beardedrancher]

I absolutely love the videos. Great job guys!

[@tvi82]

He`s on a D... *Pete nods and smiles* hahahah @20:37

[@adam614ce]

HELL YEA!! That song at the first was killer, and started my morning right!

[@tituschalk]

Dear Lee, you remind me so much of the frustrated Luke Skywalker aboard the Millennium Falcon, trying to get to grips with a light sabre for the first time. Let go your conscious self! You don't have to worry too much about things fitting into scales or what the intervals or notes you're targetting are yet - just look what notes your fingers are on in the different chords and target those notes - even if you don't know what notes they are or what scale they belong to. You'll find them an octave higher and lower easily - and see they're all nice and close to the main pentatonic scale you'd usually use to play over the progression. You can use that to knit everything together. You can totally do it! Now try it with the blast shield down... :)

[@andertons]

+titus chalk I just want to feel the force!

[@tacosupreme6895]

titus chalk Very articulately and well said, sir! I really like Lee's playing, but it does feel like he's holding back sometimes. All due respect to Lee. High five!

[@tituschalk]

Lee you're an absolutely top bloke, wonderful player and promising padawan! I'm in a very similar position to you at the moment, trying to bust out of pentatonics, without really understanding modes - but it doesn't matter! We have the force - we just have to turn off our targetting computers and reach out with our feelings! Go grab those notes that you can see are in the chords and then find your way to the next chord... you're almost there! Good luck and thanks for such an inspiring channel :)

[@FunkyMonkey-ip4xy]

The guitar, feel it you will. Or maybe These are not the notes you're looking for.

[@wolverine3344]

*Wolverine* from Atlanta chimes in ... Wisdom of a sage Titus, I’m not yet where Lee is (theory or playing ) so I am soaking in all this advice, and simply replacing reference to Lee to mean me. every single one of these tips from the established players in our community benefits many of us beyond compare. Thanks all !!

[@jbs8958]

Watched about 20 mins of it so far and enjoyed it. Sometimes think Pete is confusing the captain a bit more than necessary haha fair play to Lee for doing this and doing it on camera!

[@mattycee5412]

Learning notes on fret board makes everything like this so much easier I find

[@damirmilanovic3043]

best lessons on youtube, thanx to captain, why? cause he ask all the questions, ALL THE QUESTIONS, and he have good aim where to go with this questions .

[@ejbaquet]

10 minutes in, so over my head I'm now just watching 'cause I love these guys ;)

[@ckjjclan]

This is fantastic! Please keep doing these....

[@charlesedwards6390]

I got the backing tracks and even though I think a lot of this is way over my head these vidoes are super helpful. Thanks so much Pete and Lee.

[@courtmarr5714]

This is a really great series.

[@richardthomas4001]

Hey guys, I've been watching for years, I just gotta say Pete that was a smokin solo! The tone was cool and the licks were hot. Great job on that and the show, thanks

[@svenikea8428]

Excellent, a shred-free zone, wit repartee and all-round good chappiness.

[@khaye3030]

Wow! thank you for this! You guys are amazing!

[@arthurdduda63]

Pete you're addictive, I'll be getting your tracks soon !

[@antonioalejandrohernandezp6727]

I´ve not seen the video yet, but I know that it´s going to be awesome. Thanks Captain, thanks Pete.

[@JB-tc8el]

Awesome been waiting for number 2 thanks Pete (and of course capt!)

[@leejaynes5918]

Great fun boyz never laughed so much

[@SilvermikeTT]

This is the best thing on the internet right now

[@Justincase7761]

Music theory and improvisation in a practice environment,...wonderful to watch,...

[@kenfndr]

Danish Pete plays so smoothly, even if he hits a wrong note I wouldn't notice.

[@Music10161]

I applaud the effort Lee puts in to this.

[@marksmith9874]

Great video. Also tone from Pete's guitar is beautiful

[@charles6762]

clear as mud however very entertaining I like how the Cap is trying to get things simple and clear as Pete likes to throw mud into the stream

[@paramediccpo]

These 2 guys ! If I'd rather watch these play like this together on stage than any modern band

[@drutgat2]

I am a little older than you, Lee, and am on a similar journey to you, so I feel your pain. It has taken me a long time to realize that one of the barriers that I have inadvertently to learning more, and which I have put in my own way, is not learning the notes on the guitar fingerboard. I am now working to address that, and strongly recommend it to others. That way, you will not "accidentally end of a target note that sounds nice". I must admit that I learned the notes of the chords in terms of 1, 4, 5 and so on, but to know them by name is another matter, and helps one to see patterns on the neck. I also think that the CAGED system is a wonderful help in breaking out of playing that relies on pentatonic boxes by playing notes of the chords which are not in the pentatonic scales..

[@svajohnny7893]

Such a good lesson !! Thanks

[@paramediccpo]

I bought the tracks love listening to them and trying to jam them

[@mcadamsrandy]

This is a great series of video's. Please do more of this. I bought the backing tracks from itunes. Please tell Mick to come to work so Pete can film more Guitar Paradismo!!!!

[@grabber_blu_angel]

My goodness, Lee's guitar is perfect

[@leoself9858]

Love these lessons. We like the gear reviews but this is where a lot of guitarists are. 👍🏻

[@OriginalEyeball]

Captain,Learning the arpeggio for each chord in the progression will help massively and make you sound more jazzy.You can play your pentatonic and then slip chord tones in as and when you want.Just know which chord you’re on when you do it.

[@888Marco]

Awesome thx guys!

[@caffin8]

Love Lee's tone and vibrato

[@zachisebi]

This reminds me of every conversation between a guitar player and a pianist...

[@jamesnelson1443]

Pete has the patience of a saint!!

[@wspeed657]

I love Pete's playing on this one

[@guitarsruinlives4497]

It’s a relief to see Pete is a much better player than a teacher. He’s not connecting to where Lee is at all.

[@bw5453]

I hope that you keep these tutorials going, they are AWESOME. May be a little more info amp settings and what pedals. Cheers guys!

[@keithmasey664]

Great job guys! Most people saying that Danish Pete is a 'not very good tutor' obviously haven't done much teaching. Explaining this kind of theory and approach isn't easy, and students have different learning styles. One-on-one classes are quite intense and difficult for both teacher and student in some ways. If the tutor goes into too much detail some students will get bored (why the hell do I need to know what the Lydian b7 Mode is?), you don't go into enough detail and other students will think they're not getting decent VFM and not being challenged (why is my tutor explaining this when I could probably get a better explanation by watching KZbin, buying a magazine or using simply my own brain a little bit?). Maintaining that balance is very tricky. Well done to Pete in doing a better job in his second language than many native English speaker guitar tutors can do in their first! Well done to Lee, for trying to get playing outside the box a bit more.

[@chuckmontgomery5237]

Loooooooooove these!!!! More!

[@edruiz1202]

These guys are awesome! Not just these two but chappers and mick also, i think that’s his name. I’m mainly a bass player and the type of music i play is simple and I feel I’m comfortable with and know my way around but i also play guiar in band can’t seem to grasp my way around guitar till this. Not that I’m a bad ass but this video helped me a bit understand what to do and why. Thanks guys! Keep it up!

[@RRW276]

I would love to own a duesenberg guitar! Truly amazing guitars in every respect.

[@CarlosCandidoMusic]

Once again, hitting it out of the park. Lee catching lightning in a bottle a few times. A lot of the comments shitting on Pete for repeating (sad trombone) constantly; that’s teaching. Lee, you don’t have to verbalize everything Pete is saying, just play the riff. The comedic chemistry is off the charts good, but as a lesson, ouuufff frustrating. The good news, I can see a change in Lee’s approach to filling in the sound as opposed to “soloing”, which is the whole damn point isn’t it! Well done boys! Ps. I’m buying these tracks Pete. You are the cats ass! 🙌🏼

[@gregorystone768]

The intro tone so good

[@narendrakrane]

Now that... Is music!

[@anthonywhite676]

I'm being laughed at for having a gormless smile/grin on my face while watching. Wonderful video again guy's from the playing to the sound and editing 👏

[@vn00530]

great lesson

[@LPruckus]

Watched this a couple of months ago before diving into music theory and its seemed otherworldly. Now it's still difficult but feels approachable.

[@NickolaiDuddits]

It really helps me to write out the key signature on a white board as I'm messing around with the chords. That was I don't have to waste time constantly trying to remember the notes. Try giving that a shot Mr. Lee

[@tomthomason9669]

if Pete have a solo album...

[@organicpaul]

Great lessons appreciated:)

[@SingleCoilVoodoo]

I’m not going to lie. This made my head hurt a bit trying to wrap my mind around it all. Loved the vibe! ....but I feel like a six-string Luddite now. Hah! Maybe a video sometime explaining the whole 3rd, 5th, 7th, etc bit over some basic (non-barre) chords? This is just beyond me for now, I figure. But, again, LOVED the vibe of the track!!!

[@posford]

That's was fun .

[@Lennonsda]

We're going to walk down to the cows with Dominant Pete, and stop on the way for an inappropriate scat... Well done, guys.

[@bigupbebop4706]

Please just learn the major scale in chords and then 3 to 4 note simple arpeggios of those chords and the fretboard opens up completely. That's the spring board to blues and jazz and you then realise you can play as many wrong notes over a V7 chord as you like as long as you land on its root, 5 or 7. Jazz musicians have been getting away with it for 80 years. But it all starts with the harmonised major scale.

[@patrickohagan8305]

great vids. Many thanks

[@ryanwalker5629]

Don't usually weigh in on this running commentary (you have enough people beating you over the head with their opinions!) BUT I have to say these lesson vids are pure gold and can we have more of them please?! Your demonstartors are great players and they all could have a series of lesson videos that show how they do what they do (Joss would be a great example or Ariel Posen, I would eat 10 yards of sh*t for a lesson from him). Personally, you've already gone to the top shelf and started with Pete. Great lessson, great tips. Thanks!

[@drewmello6462]

Omg, never seen Lee laugh so hard!!! That was hilarious!

[@bvdek]

haha good stuff. I'm in precisely the same boat as you capt., asked exactly all the questions I would've. cheers! p.s those Dusenbergs are killer!

[@tincanspaceman]

I need to know what Pete was saying that had the Captain nearly in tears from laughter! "Inappropriate Scat?" WE NEED THE LYRICS! ha

[@SeanMillis]

awsome stuff i learnt heaps guys these are good even though there not structured carefully etc, and you guys mentioned modes and explained understanding them etc ive just gotta jump in there and say i never managed to understand modes until i joined Musicium and took Rabea's lessons, hands down best place to go and in the time it takes to watch the lessons u will understand the theory and the modes etc... All the modes bar one really are just the scale with one note changed once you grasp that its easy to understand and use......get yaself to the Musicium Captain and take the mode lessons im sure Rabea will sling ya a mates rate lol.... ps to others hands down best value online guitar , singing and production course available...

[@MWright95186]

hey u2... playin and watchin u2= Pete & the Cptn) is SO good(and phunnie) fer my playin, kuz The Cptn asks the questions i would and pete plays the way i'd like to...lol? keep up the good work u2... many thanx fer gettin me playin again.... many thnx... ;0) M

[@trollfiddler]

To be honest the captain is missing too much fundamental theory to be asking Pete to reach him much other than shapes and licks. He needs a more structured course. Not really Pete's fault as people seem to think. Not counting the duplicate E string you effectively have 5 mini pianos all tuned differently that you have to play over in a grid. There's a ton to learn.

[@drjazz7278]

surely most time efficient approach is to learn music theory as a subject in itself ..not just scales and positions

[@wolverine3344]

Helpful advice, I’m here to learn as well and realize I can’t get there without proper theory. Thanks for the tip.

[@snakepliskin5068]

Captain, you can play a major pentatonic over the 1 chord in a dominant 7 blues - just move the pentatonic shapes down 3 frets and play it there - so shape 2 in the shape 1 position for example.

[@lukeanthony1097]

Love that Starplayer TV, exactly the same as mine (surf green). Sounds much better in Pete’s hands though - wonder if I’m missing a tone switch or something... 😳

[@murder_out]

“Im just here for the playing.” Same, Cap. Same...

[@BitsOfEternity]

I just wish my Closed Captioning worked for that last bit ... Great to see you lads laughing though!

[@trollfiddler]

Trying to help; captain learn the intervals in major and minor scales. Then lead how chords are constructed from those intervals. Then go to your scale shapes and learn where all the scale intervals are (1,3,5,7 etc). Then learn how to harmonise the major and minor scales (which chords are always major or minor in a scale). Then you will know enough to start mapping notes to backing and why. That would be a good place to start asking Pete the questions you are asking him now.

[@themisterh]

I'm learning and these lessons are beyond me, but they really are inspiring. I love metal and rock riffs but I find myself aspiring now to play slower 'made up' music that just simply 'feels' good. Thanks!
