Stepping up my game!

[@danielzuend1859]

I watched the "how to group every guitar chord together" video (suprised I had not seen that one yet) and it was incredibly useful. And this goes right along with the shapes from that video. Thanks again for all you do to help others make their own personal improvement. You help me progress almost every day.

[@danielzuend1859]

Can't neglect the respect of a baby step!

[@seandaniel23]

Thanks so much for reaching out!!! I'll keep the vids coming!

[@miroslavpopovic8710]

What's next? Silky? Smooth? Salty? Gooey? Can't wait!

[@seandaniel23]

Coming soon!

[@leebraly3904]

Great and helpful ideas. Thank you for sharing.

[@seandaniel23]

+LEE BRALY Glad you enjoyed the crispiness.

[@remyQuillmeister]

I prepared myself for some crispy licks, and what did you do? You immediately doubled down and went straight to EXTRA-crispy licks! You can't DO that to people, man! We weren't ready!

[@seandaniel23]

Boom!

[@michaelmasin1996]

next one needs to be "transparent licks" or "organic licks" to get the attention ef every pedal fanatic

[@seandaniel23]

Organic will make it on here eventually.

[@nyalwalker6372]

This video on the major 9 arpeggio has been really helpful. Thanks Sean

[@seandaniel23]

Always happy to help!

[@Luisxpro10]

I'm going to make a song with this lick now .! Thanks so much !

[@seandaniel23]

Have at it!

[@bluewater211]

I know you're always recommending bands and songs, so I figured I'd throw one your way! Check out the band Turnover if you haven't already. Their new album Good Nature just dropped last month, and their other album Peripheral Vision is one of my favorites. Great under the radar alt rock band 👍🏼

[@seandaniel23]

I'll check it out!

[@JohnnyFootwrinkle]

Great crispy lesson. A band is playing a gig and they're a man down, you are the replacement musician, which band and which place in the band would you play, for one gig only. Your band is playing a gig, who would you have as a stand in musician and which spot would they play?

[@seandaniel23]

I'll have to put this on the QA!

[@JohnnyFootwrinkle]

Awesome, I'll look forward to your answer!

[@Eaglemerritt]

When the riffs are frisky, the licks get crispy. My new guitar philosophy... Heck maybe even life philosophy.

[@moneyhooligan03]

I seriously should refrain from slackin' and be snackin' more on these crispity snickity lickets.

[@seandaniel23]

+moneyhooligan03 you said it best!

[@savvysymbiont]

Would like to learn some 'savory' or 'sweet n sour' licks next Sean...

[@seandaniel23]

I'll put it on the list!

[@leadthorns]

Hmmmmmm! I don't know, but I could stick that in chill licks without a 2nd thought. The addition of the 7th and 9th makes it more 'smooth licks' perhaps? I expect a bit more snap for my crispy SD

[@seandaniel23]

One man's crispy is another man's smooth.

[@JensLarsen]

This better not be a riff!

[@JensLarsen]

But it is! 😄

[@seandaniel23]

Hahaha, yeah yeah yeah...

[@DSpeir-pi6tm]

But it's a crispy riff . I'm crispy riffing today, join me :D

[@JensLarsen]

Crispy Riffin' works so much better than the other one that sounds quite disgusting :D

[@ratjockey]

We need a gluten free lick lesson

[@seandaniel23]

I'm on it!

[@keep_it_real26]

Sound like a lick from something about Mary..haha .She was crispy in her day..but now she might just be country fried..peace

[@seandaniel23]

Haha, agreed.

[@WysteriaGuitar]

That was more tasty than crispy...

[@seandaniel23]

Just a tad of crisp.

[@insanedrummer89]

Crispyer than KFC

[@seandaniel23]

And we thought that was as crispy as it got!

[@sandmeerts]

Can anyone explain why the Major 9 is in the key espacially on the 1 and the 4?

[@christianwerth3601]

Certainly, the 1 and 4 both have all the intervalls of a major 9 (5 is missing the major 7). for long answer: You see the major 9 is made up of the root, the major third, the fifth, the major seventh, and the ninth( major second). For a chord (or arpeggio, same thing) to be in key it needs to use the notes of that key. We can build a chord starting from every note in the key, just as we can play a scale starting from any note in the key, we call those modes. modes are great to write in themselves, but also really helpful for understanding wich chords you can play in a certain key. The first mode (ionian/major scale) and the fourth mode (lydian) both have all of the intervals of a major 9, because they are two of the three major modes (with the major third) which also have the major seven, which mixolydian does not have. However, it is important to keep in mind that the major scale and funktional theory are not laws of nature, but only helpful tools or suggestions. use interesting chords, by mixing and matching scale tones or use chords that shouldn´t work in the key, like a major 9 as the 5 chord, maybe use the 4 minor, flat 6 major or flat 2 dominant (tritone substitution). experiment and listen, if it sounds good to you, thats the important part, most of the time your ear will confirm the theory ; ). I hope i did not complicate it to much and you understand everything, greetings from Germany oh and sean, if you are reading this, I really think you should do a video on tritone substitution

[@seandaniel23]

Great answer!

[@christianwerth3601]

Thanks Sean, I learned from the best

[@MrZigzou]

Next one? Spicy?

[@seandaniel23]

We'll see :)

[@chrisbushman718]

Scorching hot licks Smoking hot licks Steaming hot licks Sweet licks Sour licks (?)

[@seandaniel23]

+Chris Riddell So many to choose from.

[@chrisbushman718]

Sean Daniel oh but wait, I've got more! Steamy licks Sticky licks Spicy licks Frosty licks Plenty more where that came from! You're welcome :)

[@benjamincardenas4219]

That fried yardbird you used looked delicious, I was hoping there was real chicken on set, rats, sad face. Next smooth lick vid shoot could be called "lubricated licks"

[@seandaniel23]

Haha, I'll add that to the list.

[@michaelamenta5254]

About 7 minutes in (a rather bland) decorative pillow close up added to the crispyness

[@seandaniel23]

Not decorative, utility.

[@benjamincardenas4219]

Does man-scapping affect tone lol?

[@seandaniel23]

Of course it does.

[@CoolspyGaming]

Have anyone else other than me noticed how you look like Dexter?

[@seandaniel23]

Haha, yeah I've gotten that a lot.

[@themysticsessions3334]

Definitely want some "Raunchy" licks. Upvote if you agree! Oh... and here's a challenge... make your capo's colour match your shirt's colour every time. I bet you can do it.

[@themysticsessions3334]

wait a minute... loved by so many animals for so many millenia... Salt Licks!

[@seandaniel23]

Haha, I might need another couple of capos.
