[@LohPro]

[@markseagraves5486]

Top notch teaching.

[@QJamTracks]

Thanks!

[@JT-jw4fv]

Simple but eyes opening tutorials .. Thank you!

[@Web4Panama]

I was watching your video on superimposed pentatonics just a few days ago. I have earmarked it to revisit numerous times, I think it will be a game-changer for me. Now here is the next development already, cheers.

[@bradsims5116]

I have my own pentatonic modal concept. I construct my mode. With the three triads that have the modes root note. Really cool video. So hard to find anyone ,that says anything smart about modes. Thank you.

[@patrickrocha4283]

You are one of the best guitar teachers out there, awesome video!!

[@mikebryant4146]

[@QJamTracks]

Thanks Pat!

[@clelandstephen4181]

My new go to channel for guitar theory, me likey!

[@pietrocaltabiano5544]

As always, top-class tutorial. There are amazing youtubers doing similar things but nothing is at the level of your videos in my opinion.

[@lianbaite1995]

Just stumbled upon this video... Great video 👍

[@tonyrapa-tonyrapa]

Excellent video - the flavours of each mode are clearly heard in each version of the pentatonic scale.

[@edzielinski]

Amazing. The presentation is incredibly slick, but at the same time very easy to digest in pieces. I often find that concepts which I struggled with in other places suddenly become crystal clear on this channel and that's the case here. The last segment about the locrian scale was very interesting! Thank you! 👍

[@leemcfarland4794]

Implemented this a couple of months ago as a method to teach modes to my students. The results have been amazing in redefining how they approach modal playing. Such an accessible tool to what can be a brain-fryingly tricky topic to understand. Bedankt!

[@Fogertian]

Ooh! ... Thanks to this video now I know the trigger note .... Good work !!!! And ..... thanx !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stephanemathis1447]

This lesson sheds light on a lot of things. THANKS !!!

[@lazzatv]

Very cool video. Locrian pentatonic second box diagram should have the B string shifted one fret up.

[@LQVendorFP]

I have to say you bring a really excellent angle to youtube as a guitar channel. This lesson is a great example. thank you so much. One quick question regarding the Ionian modal pentatonic. I can see how the root C, the 3rd E, and the 4th F would "knock out" all the minor modes as well as lydian. Would an additional note, the major 7th be needed/used to "knock out" mixolydian? thanks again. and thank you for making the example licks manageable on speed so we can really hear the mode flavor.

[@michelhjorth8682]

top-class tutorial, I love it !!!

[@dougmoore5152]

Rob, Just so you know I am paying attention... At 14:24, the A Locrian Mode chart (XII Fret), the "B" string should be notated one fret higher up. I think you are stating the correct pitch notes (C), (D), and (E) - but they are shown where (B), (C#), and (D) would be. BTW, I agree with Jon Schmidt, you do have the best guitar learning channel! Thank you. 👍

[@patrykszymura7079]

Thanks Rob!

[@nickname3798]

AWESOME LESSON...........................

[@rochdiadam4341]

ur the best thx

[@nquerosaber]

we all love lydian undeniably best mode

[@HardcoreOreider]

Very helpful

[@randomdude93-93]

How can I tag the world? 🤣 This video offers the best explanation of modes.

[@maidenfreak9471]

This is awesome dank je wel!

[@EDGARDOUX1701]

Great video...but my trouble is not knowing very well WHEN to use a certain mode, I do know my modes but struggle with chord progressions and using the wrong mode :( Thank you!

[@Lishe-xk8ie]

Same question?

[@Quentingnostic]

Id check look into the types of chords you’re playing over. If they’re more than just triads, the extensions can be seen as valuable chord tones that you can use as “trigger” notes like in the video. But Id say practice over backing tracks and experiment! Will be more worthwhile as you’ll find your “voice” in the process

[@hristoistoyanov]

Great lesson! What I would like to see how modes relate to chords, how the "trigger note" in the chord makes a specific chord belonging to a specific mode

[@resb1714]

Did you study - and understand! - his video he mentioned at 1:06? I think it should answer a bigger part of your question. And then ... practice, practice, practice ... plus train your ear 😉🙏!

[@resb1714]

It's more at the 1:02 😅!!!

[@chrischoir3594]

good video, What model Schecter guitar are you playing here?

[@MaxAndTheKorgs]

Even though I play keyboards, the content on this channel is very usefull.

[@irespectyou7349]

Love sir

[@shayne881]

This is very cool stuff I have some how noticed that the lydian version has a slight Dorian kick to it even though the notes are emphasizing the lydian.Is that because of the backing track or is it just my ears?

[@nilla003]

Major scale (Ionian), Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do. Dorian, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do, Re. Phrygian, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do, Re, Mi. Etc. Easiest way for me to remember them. Using them, however, is a whole different thing, as he demonstrates.

[@billr3624]

Thanks for the info! Great channel! One question.....why switch to a 9 string with no fret markings when you correlate modes to pentatonic shapes? Why not just stick with a standard fret board?

[@QJamTracks]

Yes that's not very handy indeed. I'm not using that 8 string anymore in videos.

[@papunAlicea]

Thanks so much for share it. Its could be great if you do the video in spanish. God bless

[@jasonday8334]

Yeah man we don’t talk about modes around here man. As far as flavor goes I like nutmeg with a dash of cinnamon.

[@DingDong-fq2mo]

In your previous 'crystal clear' on the topic (which you link to here), you demonstrated how modes are derived. However, there you demonstrate that if want to play in X mode, play the y major scale from the zth degree. Here, you take a parallel approach, by simply altering degrees of the scale you're already in. This is a far more practical approach, in my opinion, in the long run. Most players learn major and natural minor scales quite early, and so are already learning at least one mode in parallel (teacher to student: Can you play me G major? Good! Now G minor? Good! Now G Lydian? Urrgh...). Why they don't simply learn to play other parallel scales that they want to use in their music is somewhat of a mystery. I do hope that you'll update your original version to explain this parallel approach from the outset. It might clear up some confusion.

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

While I believe I understand what modes are, my problem is knowing when to play the correct mode over what chord.

[@TCMabe]

This helped me with that the most … kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWjLfnicjLmKpq8

I wanna start from Instuctional video #1

[@kukumuniu5658]

You know what is the saddest / weirder? For years, everyone has been repeating the same things, almost no one talks about their own, original method of learning scales and improvisation etc they keep explaining with their own words the same things. How many proprietary methods of learning do you know ?

[@7trep12bor]

This is like whether to ensure "No fly zone or not dilemma" in Ukraine. 😬😆😆

[@cesarramos2681]

TRADUCTION A SPANISH :(

[@QJamTracks]

Hi Cesar. Doesn't KZbin provide you with descent Spanish subtitles? If not I can try to translate it...

[@johnharris7244]

Do not trust buying anything from this channel. Got ripped off by them.
