the single most important lesson I have ever watched!!!!

[@Dad-Gad]

Fantastic lesson yet again ! I watch hours a week of " instructors " and Rick is far and away the easiest to understand and follow 👌

[@angelojenkins2741]

Ricky you're Heaven sent thank you very much!

[@derekhealey4743]

The best explanation on fb, like being in music school, simply the best teacher on the internet, thank you.

[@Dave-gf3kd]

Very helpful! Thanks Ricky!

[@mjjames2442]

Great as always thank you Ricky

[@B_C1]

Thanks Ricky! Another great lesson.

[@andygolding2008]

After 50 years of trying to understand the guitar it is you Ricky who are the key to it all. It’s all making sense, my playing is improving, and I have a logical approach to helping my son learn how to play. It would be fantastically helpful if you could publish a list of the best order to take your lessons in. It is hard to map their interrelationships in this asynchronous virtual world. PS I’m impressed to by your developing production values too. In fact I’m so impressed by everything thing you do I’m about to make a donation, the first of many if I can afford it. Thanks Ricky

[@williamweiss3620]

You always make my day! Excellent lesson. Thank you again. Love you all Bill.

[@danahand777]

Many thanks to you Ricky! I come back and watch this over again just to refresh and keep it drilled in my head. Cheers!

[@dwaynerobare1153]

Thank you Ricky... Keep it coming! Appreciate what you are doing Ricky!

[@bernicekemp953]

Thank you much Rick .... Excellent job of explaining a difficult subject. You are an excellent instructor.

[@MrSkunk1964]

great teacher ... i like that you take the time to explain and go over and over the principles because you know we are all watching and yes there comes a time when we all have those ..AH HA moments and finally the pennies start dropping ... you're brilliant help.

[@julianandrews6025]

Good advice Rick. Developing your own sound and style along with the theoretical knowledge to be able to play your own and other peoples arrangements is very satisfying and rewarding also essential to be able to play with others and develop. Love your channel and input

[@tommcewen650]

Thanks so much..very infomative and understandable..Keep em coming...

[@traypow1]

Loved the breakdown! Thanks!

[@stringman509]

Once again brilliant lesson 👏 👍 😊

[@foolsgold8486]

I just can't understand why you are not getting -100,000's , millions of views on your tutorials Makes no sense...this is music class Gold

[@andrewmckeown9006]

I’ve been watching videos, reading books, and have a fairly basic understanding of music theory. But I just had to say thank you for taking the time to give me this video putting it all together. Showing how the major and minor scales work together is brilliant. Showing me how to use the bass tones work to create the chords (scale) on the neck, very helpful. Thank you!

[@hankrichardson9057]

Dang man out of playing guitar for twenty yesrscnow thsts one of the biggestvrye openers yet, thankscfor whst you do i have never been sble to sfford lesdons but the things ive lbern taught byvjustvwstching hour videos has made a world of difference, thanks again.

[@KRColson]

Ricky, you are undoubtably the best teacher! I have watched only a few of your videos and am blown away by how simple you make things to understand. I've had those light bulb moments where I say, "so that's it"! Thanks again.

[@rickysguitar]

Thanks Kevin, your message means a lot.

[@davidreed7494]

Hi Ricky , I see similar comments previously but this video was a classic ‘light bulb moment’ for me. Love your mix of theory with simple examples that helps pull it all together . After 2 years of random chords and play along tracks ( parrot style) you have given me the understanding to be more flexible across the fretboard . Thanks

[@flyerjeff747]

Thanks for the great lesson Rickey.

[@sharrkee]

Just stumbled across Ricky's content. These for me are some of the best presented instructional guitar videos out there. Keep up the good work mate.

[@jamesbanks2492]

Thank you so much you are the man with the master plan when it comes to the guitar you have a blessed rest of your day and I'm keep on looking at you because you are the man thank you😎😎😎!

[@trevorkenward7661]

Ah so this is where my land of confusion was based. I now understand, thanks to you, that only a maj7th progression works with the minor pentatonic. A regular maj progression used the minor pent SHAPE but in a different position. Thanks Ricky, bless you matey.

[@robbyscottperry4482]

This was/is very helpful. Thank you.

[@RollingStoneZzzzz]

Love how you speak in analogies and mediphores...Like Bookends. Creates a simple picture in the mind for EASY understanding! ❤😉👍🏻🎶 🎵

Ok, light bulb moment. You always know just how to challenge me, and what I need to hear to take the next step in this guitar journey! Thanks again Ricky!

[@tonyz8929]

Perfect!

[@darylthompson744]

Thanks!

[@darylthompson744]

Excellent! That really helps with my biggest struggle at this point. Where to start the lead for the keys.

Thanks Ricky

Good point

[@dothazlin6215]

Thank you

Pointer finger start 6th string route note going down, minor. Pinky finger start 6th string route note going up, Major. Easy Lesson done.

[@elijahmonn3757]

Went over my head. Ricky. I’m not ready for this. I’ll come back when I’m ready. Cheers Brent

[@tunguyen-pg2ux]

Great

[@anneglacken4525]

Hi , thank you so much for all your videos. Can you help? you said on the video to check out a previous video called "The Grid"- I can't find it?? Can you help. Many thanks

[@denariusshekels]

Great video , very informative. What notes are add to the pentatonic scale patterns to make it a blues scale? Thanks.

[@rickysguitar]

Hopefully I’ll do a quick video tomorrow explaining that for you!

[@denariusshekels]

Ricky Comiskey wow that will be great ! Thanks in advance

[@henrydavis7869]

When are live next

[@tommcguire1649]

I love your video "FBIs".

[@robnic52]

Hi Rickey, great lesson thanks. You are shifting the pentatonic 1 shape down three frets and calling it the minor pentatonic 'shape' and then explaining that that shift down makes shape 1 become the Major pentatonic shape. Would it be less boggling to use the rule: first finger on the root note makes it minor pentatonic 1. Little finger on the root note makes it Major penata 1. All the modes are just the full major scale 'shape' shifted up and down against the root note of the key (the root of whatever chords are being played). Minor starts and ends on the sixth note of the major scale. The bookends (great analogy) move but the scale shapes (on guitar) remain the same? The same applies for all the other modes. I understand this theoretically but still have trouble finding my way around in a live music situation. It's practice, getting it under your fingers and clear in your head (second nature) is not easy. I guess these simple rules can give you a lifeline in real performance situations.

[@rickysguitar]

I remade this video. Check it out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/paTCfnd4ecmMibs

[@davidgunsser1901]

How do I get pdf

[@phile.1381]

Hi Ricky, I learned a much better way to number the pentatonic boxes to keep from getting lost on the fretboard. The notes of Am pentatonic are A, C, D, E, G, so I call the boxes 6,1,2,3,5 after the degrees of the major scale. While "box 1" might be okay for some minor root, the next box being called "box 2" for either the minor 3rd or the major root makes no sense at all. Try it, you'll like this concept. Let me know what you think. This new way lets you instantly have both E strings as box guides.

[@rickysguitar]

Funny you should say that. I know exactly what you're saying. I have a video coming soon that uses the scale degrees in a super intuitive way. I think you'll dig it :) I don't really think in terms of box patterns these days myself. I teach them as they're a rite of passage for all guitarists and most of my audience on youtube are looking at easier ways to get to grips with improv/soloing.

[@phile.1381]

@@rickysguitar Wonderful! Looking forward to it!

[@dwaynerobare1153]

Cheat sheet for keys?

[@rickysguitar]

Hey Dwayne. I noticed a typo. I’ll get it up in the next couple of days buddy

[@FXSTC]

@@rickysguitar Great video Ricky. I just joined the Facebook Group and love your channel. Where can I find this "cheat sheet"

[@LA-zc9rg]

Lessons are great but trying to figure out the best sequence to watch is a bit of an issue.

[@rickysguitar]

I know :( KZbin isn’t the best for creating a learning platform. I’m working on an ebook of all my lesson handouts with everything categorised and indexed. Join my Facebook group to see when that’s coming

[@LA-zc9rg]

@@rickysguitar Thank you. That would be extremely helpful. I really enjoy the manner in which you present your material, always clever, clear and concise!
