Hey Mike! Thanks for help supporting the channel! I was actually planning a pinch harmonics lesson very soon! so you might be in luck👌 In terms of tone.. I will have a think about how best to present this! It can be tricky as everything from the way you play to the effects pedals/amps and style of music all affect tone.... leave it with me👌

[@clemclemson9259]

yea so did it help you or not?

[@SpacemanL2]

I played piano for 10 years prior to guitar, so when I picked up the guitar I saw no relation between the dots being musical like the white and black keys. At first I didn’t care much about theory, because it never helped me write music on the piano. I felt like a trained monkey, plop classical sheet music in front of me and I could play it, but it was like reading someone else’s book, never writing your own. Guitar opened up the world of songwriting to me. In more recent years I’ve tried to memorize the fret board, but it always takes me a beat find the notes. It’s just never been completely wrote memory for me. This is by far the most brilliant lesson I’ve seen on this in 30 years! Thank you.

[@dandavis1023]

sam, i just want to make a comment that many of us believe, but didn’t take the time to say so. You’re contribution to all guitar musicians from beginner on up, has been generous. It takes a kind hearted and humble person to take the time to share the knowledge, that at one time in your life, took many years and finances to learn yourself, and now, you share to the public that knowledge. Yes, there are many tubers that also share their knowledge, but none so authentic and simple to learn as you have displayed. I myself, and I’m sure I speak for many others, Thank You with all my heart. Why am I taking this time to comment? I have been playing for 40 yrs on and off, not as a professional but as a hobby and for enjoyment. I lost interest many times because I couldn’t put it all together. As many, I couldn’t afford lessons and work full time to support a family, still at 62 yrs old. After watching your video lessons and theory sessions, I haven’t put my guitar down every night after work. You single handedly peaked my enthusiasm. You wouldn’t believe the gear I purchased on behalf of your contribution. Tell the suppliers what I said and maybe they will supply your needs. If you would like some proof, I can share receipts and suppliers. One being a major supplier, Sweetwater. I hope this comment reaches you and once again sincerely, Thank You!!!😊

[@Samjamguitar]

Hi Dan, thank you for this heartfelt comment! I have been running this channel for perhaps a year and a 1/2 now and I get a lot of positive feedback which makes the time it takes producing content for little monetary gain all the more rewarding!

The only way to memorise the notes on the guitar is to sit and literally memorise the notes on the guitar. It will takes a long time. But once you’ve got it down, and once you pair it with a knowledge of what notes are contained in scales and chords it will open the door into whole new musical landscape.

[@PrinceMathew-lb4py]

Its easy if u know notes on piano

[@misterjackpots]

that’s so damn much to memorize

[@helohnukwa]

Yeah, of course at some point you need to learn it all to know the notes immediately. But starting with a skeleton as anchors is a great way to make this easier. You can also use shapes of intervalls, scales, chords or finger positions and so on to understand your fretboard better. A further step could also be to know the real notes behind the fretboard so that you can read sheet music. But you are absolutely right that it is all a lot of practice and focused learning.

[@nickphaux]

​​@@misterjackpotsNot really. You're not memorizing a hundred different notes, you're memorizing a repeating pattern of 12. You just have to be able to find one note on a certain string by memory, the rest you can just apply the formula. The guitar repeats at the 12th fret. If you can learn the notes of the low E string open to the 11th fret, you can learn the whole fretboard very easily

[@misterjackpots]

@@nickphaux memorizing chords and scales - i don’t understand how to get there. i am still having trouble just counting out the 12 notes

As others have said, this is super simple and easily digestible. Other videos start off way too complicated. Even after only doing this for 10-20 minutes I feel like I have a way better handle on my fretboard. This is such a great starting point!

[@Samjamguitar]

Thanks for the support Josh👍

[@shredseeker8420]

Totally agree. I must have seen over 20 videos promising to help memorise the fretboard in 10 minutes. Each one of them ends up being so complicated you just give up. Finally, the search is over. This man deserves a Nobel peace prize.

I have been self-learner and struggled so so much for years trying to find a decent theory lesson on the guitar. you've got this so very well done. straight to the lesson and no fancy time-wasting talk. Thank you so so much. I am many many many many more will appreciate this lesson.

[@Samjamguitar]

Thankyou! it is much appreciated

[@SketchEtcher]

I just memorized FGAB on the low E and then CDE on the A string, and continued to do the same for the remaining strings with FGAB and CDE. It’s an easy to remember pattern because there are no half steps. Whenever you get to a half step, jump to the next string.

[@SketchEtcher]

Guitar-and music itself-is a very pattern based system. I think of each pattern is a different “angle” to view the notes. Different people will learn from different angles. There is no one way to learn anything in music! The most important tip of all is that if you hit a block and feel frustrated because you feel like you can’t grasp something, then stop, take a break, and try looking at it from a different perspective instead of giving up. In this example, if FGAB/CDE doesn’t work for you, and you can’t memorize what is on the dots, then maybe try memorizing the notes horizontally, or carve it up in whatever way it seems to “speak” to you. Make your own system, and in the process you’ll learn a lot more than you would from wrote memorization anyways.

[@Samjamguitar]

Cheers for the support 👍 this is a good first step if you struggle with the sharps and flats (you could always add them later)

[@Samjamguitar]

Always beneficial to find patterns that work for you👍👍

[@BC-on7uf]

Something else to note as well. If you play on the 9th fret on the E string it would be a C# when you move to the 3rd fret of the A it’s a C. When you play the 9th fret of the A it’s a F#. When you start at 3rd fret of the D string it starts at F again. And this continues until you get between the G and B string where it moves a whole step down. This is just something else to help memorize this.

[@pyannaguy4361]

I'm primarily a keyboardist, but I work at the guitar every day. I'll get to my point: I'm utterly amazed at how many reasonably serious guitar players never knew that the dots were anything but random decoration or whatever! You'd think that their placement on the thin side of the neck that you look down on when standing or looking down on the guitar would be a clue that they're markers or reference points. Wow! I don't mean it disrespectfully, but it's just odd to me that YEARS could pass & one could never even hear it mentioned during one''s learning process. It must be quite the surprise!

[@Samjamguitar]

As long as it clicks eventually I guess! this is the way I have always viewed/taught it and it works 100% regardless of age or ability and there are a few other reasons why the fret markers are placed in those specific areas of the neck but that's for another video!

[@rj595]

[@jimtalltheislandbrothers6639]

Been playing for approx 40 years and never looked at it this way. That made a lot of sense especially most of us guitarist memorise the low E, A and D strings anyway because we all venture into playing a bit of bass which therefore leaves us only th G and B string to memories. Loved your approach.

In decades of playing guitar, no-one ever mentioned the fret markers and their function (beyond that they exist)... but this is a sneaky way to help get around the fretboard... With a knowledge of scales and the 'Circle of 5ths" (4ths), it's easy to define the dots in terms of the open string being the 1st of an interval -- the 1st dot is a flattened 3rd. The 2nd dot is a 4th, the 3rd dot is a 5th. The 4th dot is a flattened 7th... and the 'double-dot' is an octave. I'm off to dump all this onto some flash cards and drill it all... Fanx! for the inspiration :)

[@Samjamguitar]

Thanks Thomas S 👍👍👍 Glad you Enjoyed it!

Actually dumbfounded I didn't think of this myself. Such a good way to memorize the fretboard.

[@Samjamguitar]

Thanks! Yes it works really well!

[@Mustaine1ify]

I rather go with "Semi-tone" than "Step" but you explained it very well.👍

[@Samjamguitar]

yes I could have made that clearer but the on screen animation certainly makes it clear as to the intention. thanks👍

[@ozboomer_au]

I actually find it's frequently a culture thing together with the instrument in use. As an Aussie, we mostly talk about tone/semitone (at least, when I've been playing keyboards, sometimes with guitar/bass); USA-folks (at least) often talk about step/half-step in most every instrument (I think)... :)

[@Samjamguitar]

@@ozboomer_au can be a culture thing for sure, I definitely could have briefly mentioned this however.. you live and learn.

Great 👍 video Sam! I'm going to use this video 📹 as a guide and remember the steps so that I can play bass and guitar 🎸 in the future!

[@Samjamguitar]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@bobwalters9151]

Great intuitive video! Excellent for beginners and anyone who wants a clear understanding of the fretboard...

Still think my 75 method is easier to learn.

[@abf9547]

Thank you so much, I have a guitar and I'm trying to learn so I can play jazz, this has been really helpful, thank you so much!!

[@Samjamguitar]

Great! If you are interested in learning jazz then a strong knowledge of chords and how to construct them is essential...I would strongly recommend watching this video as many times as possible for the idea to click with you! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqXQhqxnnLp8l7c

Neatly explained - Best of the best tutorial!

[@Samjamguitar]

Thank You Editions Forever👍

[@editionsforever5353]

Sam I would love to see a video from your end on the following: On learning the notes on fret board how does one make the desired pattern (Chords) going forward in guitar leaning...Thanks for the revert!

[@Samjamguitar]

@@editionsforever5353 I Have Many Lessons In The Pipeline That Will Help With This, My Next Lesson Will Be The Caged System For Guitar (Part 1) Which Will Show You How To Map The Fretboard Into 5 Positions.... You Will Definitely Make Use Of The Note Names For That One. I Am Also Working Up To Complete Chord Construction Which Will Be A Big One So Stay Tuned👍👍

[@editionsforever5353]

@@Samjamguitar Eagerly looking forward to educating myself on the lessons that you intended to bring out sooner than later I hope especially the Chord Construction episode - I seriously consumed de lessons in good faith and its does make a difference in my playing guitar, keep up the good work -Kudos!!
