Merci pour tout tes videos, tu es excellent pour expliquer les concepts. Tu es quelqu'un que j'ai découvert depuis peu et un de mes préféré. Merci

[@wordytoed9887]

This is what I have been waiting for. I have no idea what the difference is between minor / harmonic minor / melodic minor. ¡Finalmente!

[@soundguitar]

Glad to help out! :) Thanks for watching

[@danqodusk8140]

Very well done. I definitely need to take a look at some other material you have available. One thing you mentioned that very few other instructors do is say we can use the altered scale over unaltered dominant chords. Thinking that if your 7th chord contain a #9, use must use a scale or mode that contains a #9 is really silly! We are free to color chords any way we wish. "I'll be back", said Arnold.

Jared - Thank you for taking my 'head knowledge' of the MMS to a realistic application of the spicy colorations of the modes of this scale.

Good lesson

[@mohammadsalehgholami2769]

Thank you sir❤

[@mcant2023]

Hello sir. Thanks for the video. Just asking if you have a video playing chords progression and apply that melodic minor? TIA

[@harveyhensley875]

Thanks for the comprehensive discussion of all these scales. What do you think the advantages of your 5 position system are relative to three notes per string? I have an easier time visualizing the arpeggios in the 5 position, CAGED based scales, and it seems left hand movement is more economical. But 3 notes per string covers the fretboard more densely, and brings out the whole-step half-step patterns more clearly.

[@soundguitar]

Good question! Plenty of people love 3NPS and thrive with it. I used it for years almost exclusively and switched to being fully committed to the CAGED shapes which I now call the Ergonomic Scale Forms. Once clear on those five forms for any scale, moving through and between them transitioning positions rapidly and covering the whole neck is not an issue, so the extra distance in 3NPS doesn't add that much value to it in my opinion. Here's a simple video I made with my thoughts on 3NPS: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpWzhZmkhLOMkLs. Thanks for asking!

[@harveyhensley875]

@@soundguitar Thank you so much for the response! I had not seen the video you linked to above, and hadn't considered the issue of muscle strain, and possible repetitive stress injuries. And thanks again for the comprehensive set of lessons and pdfs for the ergonomic system (CAGED) system.

[@whatilearnttoday5295]

There are 7 neck positions. Many people reduce that down to 5.

[@YorgMergyani]

Question, what was the key of the chords? I mean i know if im right for 3xample on Cmajor key if u wanna play dorian it would b , d dorian , o i see one of em was b7 , then, u kind of forgot to tell the chord names right?

[@jminter]

nice

[@ernest5328]

is it the 6th of the scale the minor, melodic minor with a raised 6th and seventh notes, starting on the second note not the root note

[@cyberjujo4413]

Neat!

[@Dolores5000]

Wow

[@JB19504]

Why is there no Phrygian Mode in the Melodic Minor scale?

[@StratsRUs]

Phrygian Natural 6 is Dorian Flat 2

[@portwain]

Great video but I have to say I truly hate the concept of playing modes from corresponding notes of major/minor scales. I was trying to understand modes and their characteristic sound for years until I started to learn modes of major scale as independent scales. Just like I did with major and minor when I started to learn the guitar. You say “Don’t think about the names, just play melodic minor from different notes” but it is very confusing. It is much better to play every mode from the same note to feel them. For now, I understand modes of major and it is easy to alternate them to get the modes of minor. Thanks for showing the chords, btw.

[@whatilearnttoday5295]

Yup. Base yourself in the real harmony being played. Never think of it as being a scale played from a different degree. Too many guitar teachers give life to this nonsensical way of looking at harmony. Sure it might help teach a person how to play the mode but it's never utilised as a way to think about a mode. It couples with them incorrectly learning specific neck positions as being specific modes. They *"go to"* the mode rather than being able to simply play it's intervals anywhere on the neck.

[@pukvolos]

Did you sit with a foot stand in this video?

[@soundguitar]

Yep! :) I always play and practice with either a footstool or cushion to hold the guitar at that angle.

Don't dig it only scale. Just me
