I'm a piano player, I know the music theory quite well and during the pandemic I decided to learn guitar by myself. It's easy to understand music theory on piano, but it's harder to implement it in practise. For guitar, it's the opposite. It's harder to understand the music theory, but once you learn it, it's like a superpower. It's a worthy investment of your time people. Learn it and learn it well.

What's the problem to implement knowledge of music theory on piano?
@randomlyrancannabis702010 ай бұрын
I've been playing since age 9, 30 years now....makes me feel old. I was raised rock and classic country, reggae skate punk as a teen, jazz band in HS, performed live my whole life, know theory....I can't play the piano worth a damn lol. My mom played and her dad tuned pianos and gave pro lessons to some famous players but I just can't translate to the ivory as fast.

@antonkonyukhov2667 Patterns are more obscured on piano, at least for me. Example: You learned the phrygian dominant scale in one key and want to play it in every key on piano. On guitar, you just move the shapes. On piano, you need to notice it and apply different fingering for most other keys. You can't rely on muscle memory anymore
@antonkonyukhov266710 ай бұрын
@@kamilchosta5526 Yes, it's reasonable for some cases. I think it's a matter of experience and habit, because for me it's easier to build a chord on the piano than on the guitar as all notes are visible and well structured. But I suppose, if you are more comfortable with guitar -- this instrument suits you better

I'm not that familiar with R&B guitar, just whatever I picked up from Hendrix songs/lessons and a teenie tiny bit of jazz, so this was a pretty densely packed lesson for me. I've spent literally hours digesting it. It's what I've been looking for. You're like the StitchMethod of R&B/Neo-soul guitar lessons to his blues. He breaks down the music theory in a blues context exceptionally well the same way you are with these chords and embellishments. Thank you for this! You got another sub. Gonna spend the next week diving into your videos.

I do understand others may be a bit more experienced but as a beginner this is too advance for me. Any chance you have a Neo Soul tutorial with a shorter progression and easier chords?

Good morning! As always, thank you for your shared videos. Even when I am away from my beloved guitar, the music being played kn the background is always beautiful. I havent finished this morning's video yet, but so you provide tabs for your students and viewers? If you ever need help putting them together, I would be more than willing to help put them in beautiful .PDF and .DOC formats in a pretty and easily legible file with a nice bow on top. Could also convert them to be read on tablets; iPad and Kindle. Could use a break from other things, and I'm sure that it would be a fun experience. Love - Jody & the Kids

Cool lesson but as someone on the newer end of learning guitar this was sort of hard for me to follow.
