In this video, we're diving into how to use scale and chord formulas to improvise better on the guitar! 🎸 We start by looking at how scales, chords, and arpeggios are connected with something called the CAGED system. It's like a cool map for your guitar!
You'll learn how to use the E shape to find notes and build scales using CAGED octaves. This helps you see where notes are when you play.
Then, we move on to starting scales from different strings like the A and D strings. By understanding how root notes work and where to find them, you can find all the notes you need.
Finally, we talk about using major triads to build full scales across the guitar. You’ll see how to bring different patterns together and maybe even explore other shapes.

I was confused by your phraseology being opposite of the movements with regard to octaves. You would say drop it down one octave, but you were actually going up an octave. Otherwise and interesting and useful discussion. Thank you.

Thank you Ricky.

[@SelfSealingStemBolt]

Mind blown!!!!! Thank you!!! I can’t wait to practice this. Amazing! Love the editing too! What editing software do you use? Very nice.

[@rickysguitar]

James does my editing. He uses Final Cut Pro :)

[@SelfSealingStemBolt]

@@rickysguitar awesome. Very well done! :) Thank you!

[@mabblers]

Thanks this was a really good expiation of the scale around the chords. What determines how to count the arpeggios?

[@Thoseaboutto911]

When do you use three notes per string system and why?

[@rickysguitar]

Depends what effect your trying to create. 3nps is suited to economy picking and faster idea. Use both! Don’t limit yourself

[@benjig7085]

This is caged system not modes.. seems misguided

This is video 1 of 3, I split the big video up. At the end of this one is the Lydian mode. At the end of that is Mixolydian.

​@@rickysguitarAlright cool I will check them out. Thanks 👊

Applying octave pairs based on where the root is. You can build the mode around it.
