Your Very FIRST Guitar Scales Lesson

[@KB24toogood]

I know this is probably intended for beginners, but even for folks that have been playing for a while, it’s good to revisit the basics every so often. Thanks Marty for all that you do 😃

[@Robert-fi9xl]

Marty still teaching the basics. Thankfully.

love that marty refuses to quit on us, I know it's been off and on these past couple of years, I just refuse to be defeated by the guitar

[@rockinbobokkin7831]

Here to support Marty! Best instructor for beginners around. Thanks for all you do.

[@sebastian20315]

i'm glad Marty that you make beginner lessons as there are many like me who can't afford private lessons and want to learn guitar and i hope there are more beginner lessons on the way. keep on!❤

[@DeuelThreatGaming]

Marty, I first picked up a guitar 15 years ago. Your videos got me started. I fell off and picked it back up 3 months ago. Scales are I think the next step for me “unlocking” my fret board. I think I have the open chords going well at this point. Thank you for all the help over the years!

[@chriscompton3216]

Marty is the one that made guitar enjoyable to learn. If you haven't tried his courses I can tell you, they will make you better at guitar!! Thanks Marty!

[@doubledee6234]

Marty, I like your style of teaching us beginners. You don’t go fast like others, I don’t have to rewind, slow down etc. I have purchased a nice few of your courses. Keep up the good work and keep it coming!

[@Weinmaste]

Marty!!!! Thank for the vid, please continue this series, maybe scales to learn in order. I'm about to delve into scales this winter, I'm gonna need your help/tutelage to get through this and learn as much as possible!

[@sherry4807]

Good lesson I’ve only played rhythm and have always wanted to learn to play this way. It was overwhelming trying to learn lead on my own. But this video hit different and it all clicked. 😊

[@waynejeffries4647]

Hey Marty … you’re always so clear, patient and enthusiastic with your music lessons. Where were you when I was taking Differential Calculus??? 10:25

[@HunterEstes-j7y]

I hope you know how appreciated you are Marty! Learning guitar has been a huge part of me staying clean from drug addiction. So I hope you know you are changing lives brother!

[@jackwolfman389]

Marty is still my number one guitar teacher! Still Making the basics sound like butter!

[@michaelmerrullo2043]

Once again, I think its your head movement in the opening performance that brings home the pure joy of playing the open position e minor pentatonic scale. But seriously, nice lesson! I liked your demonstration licks. 😎

[@michaelmerrullo2043]

Go

[@jonshaw9472]

This is a great lesson, absolutely essential for a beginner as you can build so much off it, way better than simply learning ' Enter Sandman' or 'Smells like Teen Spirit' without understanding the theory of what you are playing which is how I started off on guitar.

[@djmexicanodetx2195]

Marty, your channel helped me learn electric guitar! 🎸

[@enewkirk1]

Awesome find. I've been on KZbin since its inception. I've fixed numerous problems from the help of others taking their time to make videos. Now I'm learning to play the guitar with your help. Greatful to say the least.

[@FollowerOfChristJesus-h7v]

This was incredibly helpful! Thank you Marty

[@rubyberry76]

Love ya Marty! Good to see your still making tutorials, helps so much!!👍🏼👍🏼❤️🔥

[@JamesGarcia-f5g]

[@misteramerica3610]

Great basics recap.... Was just searching for this in my rookie repertoire and drew a blank funny enough

[@mbrady535]

Man I started watching Marty’s videos to learn chords 6 years ago.. I’m back just in time to start learning scales 🤘🤘🤘

[@edcrutchfield3447]

Marty can one do this with the acoustic guitar 🎸 . Thank you 😊. Great teaching!!!!!

[@dontbakdown6015]

Thanks Marty for reminding us that to play the good stuff you just gotta understand the basics..scales although sometimes tedious lead us to being better musicians...thanks for your patience with us learners..😊

[@Yungwookjeezy]

Marty is the man!!!!

[@AM-hb6th]

Marty Rocks

[@joshnorko5586]

Good stuff Marty!

[@Kosmopoli]

Every now and then I pick up my dusty guitar and tune into a Marty video.

[@Anthony_Glock]

Im watching this as my son is now hooked on your videos. Hey Marty, did anyone ever tell you that you look alittle like Kid Rock. Maybe not in this vid, but Ive noticed it before, with the kinda half goatee thing, ya you look like him. Or maybe he looks like you. Great job on your tutorials, thanks a bunch! From Canada.

[@maxtopl6486]

Great video! BTW is there any chance you could try to make a lesson on “glory days” from fellowship? Love your content, its very fun to watch putting aside how helpful it is!

[@stephenalibozek1058]

Perfect 👍👍

[@davidsargeant9312]

Thank you so much for this lesson Marty. You are such an amazing instructor. What lesson / lessons would you recommend to follow on from this please from your Marty music website 👍😀🎸

[@pameladuplessis6360]

Thank you!!!

[@LiveAndInPerson]

Enlightening ❤

[@CaptainBrash]

I remember learning this scale and when messing it up being like "hmm I've heard this before?" Not long before had been learning Wish you were here. xD

[@breannealnafee8482]

PLEASE MARTY, can you do a lesson on “the end” by pearl jam. It was my dads favorite song and he passed away. Id love to learn it 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@MiekHawkIsNotWorking]

Sick.

[@misteramerica3610]

If I solo over the chords of D major in open position, is that from a "scale" or just a different way to knit pick notes of a chord???

[@Rob-ik6ri]

Which one should I buy Boss katana 100 gen3 or Fender champ 100 ?

[@In0centz]

Marty please, peace of mind by Boston

[@caseyfreeman3994]

Marty I think there is a gen 3 katana, I wonder what is different about it

[@matthewsigmon9026]

O can almost certainly also be 0. Zero equals open makes sense to me. No surprises, even when I'm not being "a wise ass" I am still being one. Haha. Thanks man!!

[@barryseither4271]

Hey man, zero makes sense, right? There's a number of frets and the first one has to be 1, so no fret is zero, right? Well sorry son, but no. The action of playing a note without pressing the string down on a fret is called an open note. That's exactly what Marty was addressing. People who don't understand this concept view tabs and incorrectly refer to an open note as a zero. Now, we all know that O is a letter and not a number and I personally will correct someone who says O when referring to numbers. That's what Marty is referring to. He says which finger to place on what number fret for each string and then says O because he's talking about an open note to which some "wise guys" try to correct by saying that the letter O is not a number. Well no shit buddy, we're not referring to a fret, we're referring to an open note. If that's still confusing, here is another way to look at it; if an open note meant zero than using the same concept, a fret number would mean the amount of frets you would be pressing on instead of which fret. Idk how else to explain it.

[@jondelaney9886]

more lessons...MOOOOOOOORE

[@slq3263]

Marty do you teach theory on your patreon page?

[@1611_KJB]

Marty, I’d like to share in giving you accolades, but I’m a beginner, a real beginner, can’t even play one song. So I followed fine in doing the pentatonic scale, but then you jumped the tracks for me. You went off into some blues stuff, I can’t tell what fingers you’re using for what, strumming and fretting and you aren’t explaining anything seemingly surmising I know what you’re talking about. When you say “surely you recognize this” and take off on examples, even changing to different examples is n the middle of the examples, I’m clueless. Judging by the others comments it’s me, but is there somewhere I can go where they will explain this other stuff the way you did the scale? Also, you might want to rethink your position on only recommending gear you’d use. Most of us aren’t millionaire musicians and we’re lucky to have $200-$300 to spend on an instrument we may or may not stick with. I know I have no intention of spending $900 on a guitar until I’ve played several years and know I’ll stick with it and I’ll have to be darn sure I’m committed for a lifetime before I’m going to spend $4,000 dollars. I’d like to hear your opinions on budget guitars even if you won’t recommend them. Thanks, I appreciate your teaching style and enjoy watching you, but for we beginners who are seriously older than you, we need a lot of handholding😁

all the blues stuff slows the video down a lot, the Metallica stuff was fun to hear and made me want to watch and play.

We tune into Marty because he is smart enough to not listen to lame comments like the one Mr. Paredes here wrote. Keep the blues coming Marty, we love it!
