[@B.Cote39]

Playing guitar all my life and this is the best lessons I've ever seen!

[@DragmoraProductions]

U are an angel sent from the stairs from heaven 💖. I have watched many videos. But by watching yours I finally understand how scales on a guitar works.

[@ilovetoo7009]

You are the king of KZbin guitar theory lessons. A god among men. I am still watching all your videos, absorbing something new every time I do, even though I've been through them all multiple times. I really am grateful you share your talent not only as a player but as a teacher.

[@Rossmelanson]

Order his products, I did!

[@bigbossdeleon]

This is the right video I've been looking for. No BS introduction, just straight to the point.

This is the best 7 min lesson i have ever watched in internet. You are best teacher.

Same . It's only taken me 30yrs to find 😂

[@jacktoddy9783]

Great lesson - Been playing for 50-years yet still learning. I have my own way, nonetheless, I admire your tutorials - Thanks for making the videos and sharing - much appreciated.

[@darrenhenifin]

Talk about taking your soloing a step up! I love Fretjam and its free information, truly an amazing resource for the guitar community!!!

[@judyvarin783]

playing for a year and now i get it .i have all 5 pentatonic scale's all down pat . and now this . man does it help me now big time ..now its time to cut lose . thank you very much .

[@chrisashton9365]

Best lesson on KZbin period. This is crazy good and visually very easy to understand. Subscribed.

[@tommore3263]

Your clear approach and illustrations are terrifically helpful. I've signed up to your program which is excellent value for the small amount involved. Thankyou and keep it up. You're adding a lot more music to the world ... and removing quite a bit of dull noise... 😃 Mine.

[@LiquidWhisp3r]

i just stumbled across the this video for the second time. The first time was 6 or so months ago and its changed the way i approach the fretboard completely - and broke me out of vertical scale thinking. in parallel to learning scale positions, this is a must do exercise. -print an image of your desired scale across whole fretboard -grab highlighter -portion it out root to 7 root to 7 as many ways as you like -stick it on your music stand -play play play -the patterns will begin to ingrain faster than scale memorization will ever take hold alone also: "lets start with the major scale because once you know this pattern you'll automatically know its 6 additional modes" - GENIUS (and you'll also know the Minor Scale...) print em off and look really hard at them all if that doesn't click. The Major scale, Minor scale, and 6 modes of each are just the exact same pattern slid to a different place on the fretboard. if you master the Major and can move it around - you know all the rest. please keep making these!

[@kuyatotoygrangos6700]

Why didn't I find your channel a year ago when I started learning guitar. I've learned more from your channel than I have in a year of watching other guitar tutorials that seems like they're just showing off but not instructing. Best guitar tutorials I've ever seen on KZbin keep it up.

[@sina666able]

the amount of knowledge in this video is so enormous and easy to grasp that even me as a beginner learned so much .. thank you

[@AshleyAlvares]

Brilliant stuff. Exactly what is needed for anyone stuck in scales.

[@Inngrown]

Having a visual diagram to watch makes all the difference when learning guitar. It's much easier than watching someone demonstrate it on a guitar. I'm so glad I found you, you're easily the best instructor I've tried to learn from!

[@sunjamrblues]

This really identified my weak spot. I know all the pentatonic positions backwards and forwards, and all the arpeggio scales, but I have never focused on how to connect them over large areas of the neck. Now I get it. A thousand thanks! I have subscribed.

Diagrams are not that easy to read for some of us as we all learn in different ways. I prefer seeing actual players alongside the diagrams to give a better visual reference from a personal point of view. maybe others are the same?

[@Ronno4691]

C'mon, guys and gals - reach into your wallets/purses and support this man's work! Mr Fretjam sure knows his stuff; I'm currently working on his Arpeggio lessons and they are SUPERB. Beginners could really benefit from studying Arpeggios in order to become better intermediate players, IMHO. Learning cool Blues licks (or Metal or Jazz licks etc) is fine but if you're serious about becoming a player then you need to learn practical theory and how it relates to making music and FretJam really does have an authoritative handle on that, without a doubt. Thank you!

[@fretjamguitar]

Thank you that is so kind!

[@jackson-aka2gs749]

[@dustyschwartz1576]

This was exactly what I needed. Thank you

[@minkorrh]

Here's 2 cents from an ear player........ learn the pattern. Always start looking at the 12th fret as that's a great lead place to start. Find 'the box' or the pattern that associates itself with all the notes of the scale around the 12th. DO NOT IGNORE the way that this scale sounds. With time you will be able to correctly play through just by listening to where the intervals are and knowing if they should be half or whole steps from where you are. this can help you build 'relative pitch'. After you figure out some licks within the 12th fret area, continue using your ear to figure out and play the scale across the neck. If you have half an ear you will know what the correct notes are for the scale. Play the scale up and down until your sick of it and can play it fast. Then when it's embedded in your head, fond the rest of it across the neck. Remember that a scale is NOT all the dots you see right now...it's only 7 of them. The rest are repeats. Now start learning the theory that associates this scale with the chords behind it. Doors start to open.

[@sylvainsauve1124]

Notice something chart @0.13 minutes : as you progress from root 1 and stop at 3 you have 2 possible paths the linear option or down option under the root 1 number 4 is almost always there also pattern repeat it self every 1 thank you :) .

[@ZZZZ-wz4ue]

… fret jam First off I applaud you in these presentations that you so skillfully display … However, My reply was not about the scales it was about the cadence in which the graphics display in time per note on the screen, as it appears to be off somewhat at times so we suggested that having the no.-1 position light up in a different color from all the other notes regardless the scale would be helpful to folks that are watching and no doubt have played scales for years like myself but no doubt as well for those wanting to learn a faster way to do just that as you attempt to do in this presentation. No.1 position is always the "go to or go to home" position that allows one to ascend up or down as needed. Hope this helps ….

[@oneeyemonster3262]

hey....maybe you can do a lesson playing towards the nut. To build on top of this lesson because it'll pretty much cover the entire neck Kind of like playing an open C maj chord or the C maj barr chord. I hope that makes sense.... The pattern cris cross each other like V or up side down v so they form an X or like checkers...for the pentatonic scale..( the Amin at 5th fret) The lower 3 strings is the A minor. The top 3 are the C major pattern or lets say u start that same pattern at the C note @ the 7th fret...it's like play an open C maj pentatonic shape or playing towards the nut....I hope that makes sense

[@DragisaBoca]
