Steve Stine Guitar Lesso

[@kieranroberts9119]

Excellent video mate Thabks However would it work over a major seventh or a half diminished or something not just major or minor? Or would you use extra notes ie 7th for 7th chord etc etc

[@lorenzociliberto9564]

Please stop the translation software in the titles. This is not German at all. Everybody in Europe understand more or less English.

[@MiguelSanchez-qc1mv]

Steve how would I play A major pentatonic in shapes 2,3 or 5 since those shapes dont use a pinky finger in the beginning, would I still go down the fret board to three frets down ?

[@pichaeljimenez6240]

This is exactly what i am looking for. I am interested in purchasing a course. From what course is this from?

[@tommyd4325]

Man, how does this guy make more sense in five minutes than anyone else makes in hours?

[@petermcgarrymusicandflying]

Absolutely. He is a laser beam in fog

[@SoonerTruth]

Lol First , He is demonstrating to you what will turn out for you to be a meaningless or useless concept thats not meant to be taken litterally ! He is simply showing you the concept of using triads to outline chord tones, which very quickly will cause an enexperienced player tp get frustrated and or confused, which Greatly enhanceces the chance that you will sign up for his paid lessons. What he is saying is Technically Correct but this clown is a master of leaving out key information but looking on the surface like he is explaining it all.....Nobody (not even him) approaches lead guitar this way !..The C-F-G-A Triads or Notes are all within a Simple C Major scale .. Scales are harmonized in a way that you dont need to chase chords ! Im saying this and you can watch his video on Modes where he himself (Steve Stine) saying how rediculous chasing all these chords really is ! Everybody needs money sure but videos like this only Targets people who dont know the reality of whats being taught. Want proof of my assertions? Watch and listen to the video (CONFUSED BY MODES? MASTER THEM TODAY) LISTEN AT THE 3.30 MARK TO 5 AND YOU WILL HEAR OUR FRIEND REBUKE ANYONE THAT TAKES THE APPROACH HES SHOWING YOU TODAY. TRIADS = REALITY....REALITY=MONEY

[@Azwad]

Not every player is a teacher. He is one of the best players/teachers.

[@Azwad]

@@SoonerTruth Such hatred from you. I see it only as a gradual process for the beginners. It's important to understand the concept first then move on to the better approach.

[@arealgoodguy]

@@SoonerTruth - at 9:26 he explains the situations to use this chord chasing. He's not hiding it. I've played guitar for 14 months. This helps me understand more. That's good enough for me.

[@giovannimaldonado3198]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME????!!!!!!!! This dude taught me in 15 minutes what I’ve been trying to learn in 25 years!!!!!!!! 🤣 Steve Stine, I love your videos my man, you’re definetely the best guitar teacher I’ve seen. Thank you.

Same here man

[@wingsab]

couldn't agree more. Steve Stine's videos are eye opening

[@robbiewilliams-oe6iu]

I just had the same epiphany. Decades ago I wish I had this lesson. I know all my pentatonics and modes but I guess I never paid for that final lesson when I was 15 to understand how to do exactly this.

[@thetrooper4614]

i play BASS 30 yrs now and same i have studied theory after theory after theory watched 1000s of you tube lessons ... 5 lessons from Steve and bingo its all come together which no other bass lesson has done.

[@flyingsalmon]

[@AlexUnitron]

First person to actually make sense 💯🔥

[@D-Khalid]

Many words combine that still makes sense. Possibly I've heard Too much Music Theory I know too much

[@christopherpeters3922]

Agreed alex.

[@johnc.8298]

Chasing chords sums up this approach beautifully. If you stick to resting on harmony notes, especially the tonic as Steve demonstrated and connecting the next chord tone (tonic) with scale notes you will never hit a "sour" note. You start by learning where the tonics are for each chord in the song and rest/vibrato on them only. Watch Steve's video again. It is excellent.

[@LowGUkeChannel]

Completely agree.... Well done Steve!

[@JustCaptain]

For real this dude is a good coach

[@bomber2732]

Man, you are such a good teacher. While most people leave us with more questions than answers you leave us with all the answers! Thank you

[@Jack.Waters]

I've been playing strings for 45+ years. At my age learning theory to understand the Shape of Movable Chords. Steve is awesome at helping visualize this.

(1) concise, (2) straight to the point, (3) easy to follow. This is how people must teach guitar. Learning guitar can sometimes be very stressful, hence thinks should be taught in an understandable manner. Thank you Steve

Music theory has always been very difficult for me, but the way you explained it and how you visualize the scales has been INCREDIBLY helpful. Thank you so much!!!

[@eaman11]

It's not you, guitars are not the ideal instruments to visualize music theory. Just buy a cheap keyboard and chords, inversions, scales, major - minor - dim, all will look straightforward on a diatonic instrument.

[@OkinInc]

I dusted off my guitar after years of it sleeping in my wardrobe. Gotta say your lessons are by far the easiest and best on KZbin. Thanks from New Zealand!

[@clawsmedia8752]

Love the fact that you don't actually just tell us something, you actually take the time and patience to explains the whys and hows with it. Thank you . Great video. :)

[@DanielMartinez-uv6hy]

I'm blind. I've always been a rhythm player, despite taking lessons here and there over the years... This lesson bridged something in my brain and I can visualize what I need to do to play lead guitar. I'll probably start off chacing chords and develop my lead skills with time. I know quite a few skells but this made a difference.

[@myobs]

@11:55 when you began soloing over the four chord changes from one position it almost moved me to tears, it was a beautiful improvisation. Thank you for taking the time in putting these videos together and for explaining everything so well. Best wishes to you.

[@bobeadgbe]

Hi steve. i am a retired welder, and have played acoustic guitar most all my life. i however many times just got stuck, and discouraged, and would slip away.

Never in years of playing have I realized this can you imagine how much this has helped, I play bass and Steve is the best bass teacher sorry i have been lucky enough to find { Steve you really don't know how much you have helped me} its really really coming together i see the fret board in a totally different and much more logical way, 20 years or so of theory now finally makes sense after watching your lessons.

What I picked up in 15bmins would of taken me a year or more to learn the hard way. Thank. One day I will be on your playing level and that's sooner rather than later thanks to you. I'll be watching many more videos of yours . Thank you

This is probably the most comprehensive and most useful video on guitar tutorials here in YT, specifically in the topic of soloing using Pentatonic Major Scale.

[@kavanmannapperuma1963]

I have watched plenty of videos to get an idea about how pentatonic scales connect with chords. This video made the most sense and gave something to work with. I was so confused up until this point.

[@hmakam]

all these years playing just blindly over the fret, following a feeling, suddenly i can read the fret like its a book. today i am going away more confident in my abilities and actually learned something! and this all for free. thanks you so much steve!

[@rabukan5842]

Steve, where were you back in 1963? That's when I started playing guitar, and like most, I had to study ALL of the scales up and down the neck, plus etudes, arpeggios, etc. and eventually, after many years of boredom combined with frustration, I finally got it. But you just laid all those years out in 14 minutes! I never saw it so simply put. ALL of the scales - whether pentatonic, major, minor, modal - are in those positions wherever a root note is. That's true teaching. Well done!

I haven’t been playing for a long long time but somehow circle back to Music theory every now and then. The way you pieced this together is so clear and is exactly how it should be taught. Breaking down the diatonic scale into digestible pentatonic chunks is The way. It makes you sound musically more elaborate than a tonal center single pentatonic box over a progression. All the different flavors of pentatonic modulation coming to life with a diatonic richness. So cool. Thanks man.

what i like about Mr. Steve is he is more focused on the "principle" or the "theory" of a certain aspect of guitar playing

[@laurentd9655]

Hi Steve, 5 years of guitar lessons and no-one has been able to say to me that playing major is simply playing minor but in another pentatonic position BUT YOU. I THANK YOU VERY MUCH for that tip because it just sounds so easy ti think that way.

[@ddpelletingsolutionsllcwig8947]

Steve, I have really learned a lot from your videos. I am 63 years old, started playing when I was 32 and only played chords until two years ago. As you can guess learning lead licks and soloing has been and continues to be a challenge. I would love to see you focus a lesson or two on E major blues leads and E minor blues licks. It seems to me almost all KZbin teachers focus mostly on A minor. I do appreciate your teaching style and again I have and continue to learn more than I ever imagined I could from you. I love playing and will paly as long as my fingers will move. Thanks.

[@brukuns]

This guy is gifted. What an amazing teacher, thanks!

[@donvape336]

Now I get it. I have been using your courses and it's finally starting to flow. I actually am starting to understand theory. Your blues masters class is such an eye opener and this video just cemented the playing in the same area using different chords. Thanks so much.

[@hawkdl2]

I've been confused for ever over how, or if, a minor pentatonic can be played over a major chord. You finally made it clear and understandable. I watch any number of KZbin channels for how to play songs, but I always come back here to actually learn how to play the guitar.

[@stinemusiclessons]

In my life I've known a few teachers/instructors in different disciplines with an exceptional gift, but they're the rare exception. Your ability to communicate concisely yet so clearly a complete understanding of whatever it is you're teaching thoroughly impresses me any time I watch your tutorials. Thank you for being you, and thank you for sharing your gift.

I am Mind Blown! I have been wanting to learn how to improvise and your lessons make it so much easier ... in a matter of 2 days I’ve learned what seems like a weeks worth. Great teaching 👍👍

[@AlterBridgeOne]

This may be the best lesson to learn from that I have ever watched! Excellent!

[@PradyMj]

The best guitar teacher ever!

[@michaelwaddle7735]

Youre approach to teaching guitar skills not only comes in from left field but crosses home plate a perfect strike! After watching for less than an hour i could see what was going on . actually it opened up my blinders quite a bit. Thanx brother. I dusted off my ol explorer after 20 years and haven't stopped playing since. Music is magic

[@stinemusiclessons]

Awesome to hear, Michael!

[@kostasoblivion]

everytime i see this guy my mind is blown away,he always finds the best way to teach u something,love u man,no homo:P

[@grantmontgomery9955]

I'm a beginner. I've been practicing the pentatonic scale, playing it over and over. I've been trying to make some kind of sense of how you can apply it to a chord progression. I thought it would just be the "joke that I never understood". Thanks for the help. It makes me want to keep practicing scales.

[@axetrac10]

That's a fantastic video and explained articulately - vocal and guitar. :)

[@willierides]

I’ve been subscribed for a while now. This is hands down the best video I’ve seen to help me understand how to solo using the pentatonic scale. It answers a question I’ve been trying to unravel for a while now. The light came on.

[@leimaniax]

Amazing lesson! So helpful and explained so well. Thank you, Friend. This has been a huge help in getting an understanding of the pentatonic scales. 🙏

[@ya-luteng5556]

Just want to appreciate for the lesson! I’ve leaned major and minor pentatonic scale for only one position each, and this video enables me to unlock solo by chasing chord progression with only one position! Amazing video and explanation on how to utilize pentatonic scale!

[@stinemusiclessons]

Hey! Thanks so much for your comment and for sharing. That's awesome to know the lesson was helpful. Keep up the great work and any questions feel free to ask!

[@wideyxyz2271]

Very cool....I use chord pulse on my laptop and chordbot on my phone...both great to jam too also good for song writing and trying new progressions...

[@javierjuarez4127]

By far this is the BEST video that finally makes it all clear on how to use the pentatonic scales over any chord progression. Thanks Steve!!!

[@stinemusiclessons]

My pleasure! Glad it was helpful and thanks so much for your comment.

[@greggormley163]

Best damn explanation I've heard anywhere. Fantastic job.

[@rickcrowley760]

This is the best lesson I have seen. Well explained, and I now understand why and how the pentatonic shapes all fit in. Thank you again from England

[@juan_euler]

I'm gonna apply this on my solos, it sure helps! Nobody ever talked about this on KZbin! Thanks Steve!

[@TheSingingDoctor325]

Hi Steve - I found this video extremely helpful. I'm a singer / (not yet) songwriter and love playing with others but have only recenlty started learning pentatonic scales, modes and the chord numbering system. You helped me clear up a lot in just 14 min. What a cool life you're living; not only are you helping a lot of people, you're doing it through something you're very good at and, something you clearly enjoy. Few people can say that. Rock on brother!

[@stinemusiclessons]

Hi Phillip! Thanks for your comment and for sharing! My pleasure and thanks again for the kind words!
