What does "minor 11 shape in the six string position" mean? Do you mean minor 11 chord with the root on the 6th string? It's kinda throwing me off to hear the word "shape" used outside of the context of the CAGED system.

I love the way you teach. I'd like to see you create a complete piece over 3 videos, planning - progressions, chord choice, mood choice and feel. The practice - the development of the idea, alterations and additions made, and the final piece plus breakdown - you know, that "2Smooth" magic! 90 second piece, so we can really see how to explore and develop a complete idea beyond phrases. So we can see in context how licks and phrases fit within a given framework. Hope that makes sense. Great work 👏

I always seem to pull-up a leeson from you that brings me up. ( & I've been a 3yrs beginner.. Learning from you when time allows me too. Now this Virus stuff happening... I would love to play good & smooth to bring softness & calming joy to people's heart with smooth guitar playing. I'ma keep practicing.. I've been wanting to join your camp.. but time & money has me on pause/ but one day I'll join. I do have a couple of your lessons on Vime that I need to go back too for tuning-up. It was overwhelming when I purchased it.. but little by little I'm learning & understanding more. I couldn't just jump in it as I assumed. I just turned 50 in November & my brain & everything is slowly....(changing is the best way I can explain it.) Anyway.. I've been commenting with you over the years...& just saying.. Thanks once again..& God Bless You & your Family!👍🙏

Own artificial ribcage now and I know my head took a major rattle. Played decades ago and decided to get back into it since work is history. Sorry'bout the bio. Peace. Enjoy our guitars.

You're doing just fine Kerry 😀. I am new to your channel but I also follow a few other RnB "how to" channels so that's why I can say that. I especially like your emphasis on feel and doing only what's right for the song without over complicating things. Also you actually sound like the guitar parts I hear on songs rather than just giving a technical lesson.

I've been playing that chord for over 10 years. It never made since until now. Kerry can you talk more about the number system. Beyond 2-5-1... 11 - 9 - 4 - 7 - 3 - 6 - 2 - 5 - 1.... Is more traditional jazz standards. I like your interpretations and melodic inflections of your chord choices. Dope... From the composition idea behind blues and souls.... Building melody in the context of today's R&B... I am looking at turn around s and other ideas to keep the composition moving but not get to busy that it clashes with the other instruments in the composition. This video and your style of teaching and playing makes it comprehensible. I am going to inbox you. NYC
