I've played guitar for around 30 plus years. My advice is - play often, and often play at the edge of your abilities. Push your playing and make sure you're stretching your ability each time. Never ever be afraid to make mistakes.

‘Play every day…’ yes yes yes a thousand times yes! Even though I’m a high schooler who has homework, activities and a job that take up a lot of time outside of school, I still make a precedence to play everyday, even if it’s just playing all the Toad the Wet Sprocket riffs I can play off the top of my head, or playing an acoustic rhythm pattern in DADGAD or something like that. Thanks Eric!!!

Im so glad I have found your channel. I’ve been playing 2.5 years and in the intermediate phase but been getting over excited with learning so much as I am in the guitar phase of finally figuring out how everything works but it can be super overwhelming cause I just want to apply everything at once but watching your videos reminds me to just slow down and be patient. Also you remind me to actually focus on my playing too as you mentioned about creating the story first before typing which is a great analogy and sums up my mistake 😂 being at this level I find it’s hard getting teachers on KZbin like you cause most don’t explain sth or just say “don’t use the pentatonic, it’s a waste of time” even though I disagree with this cause it has helped me so much to understand the fretboard even though I can see why seeing it as chords is great too but we all need the caged system.

My usual practice routine: 1. Free jam warmup with whatever musical gibberish flows from my heart. I have a little chart of chords taped onto the side of my amp. I try to pick a different key each day. I typically use a looper with a drum beat going. I don't love how fiddly the Boss RC-10R is, but it does have a heck of a lot of different styles of drum loops. 2. Calm down, pull up whatever book or course I'm working through, and work through a chunk. I just finished up a great course called "CAGED Edition of Guitar Zen" ;) Now I'm digging into an Ariel Posen course on rhythm triads. Some days, I can crush a couple pages. Some days, I immediately get stuck and spend the whole session learning one new weird shape or rhythm. 3. Take whatever techniques I just learned from my lesson and incorporate them into whatever idea I stumbled into during my initial free jam. This is when I also let myself tweak all the effects on my board to get weird sounds. Three days ago, it was three delays chained together! Yesterday, I just cranked up a phaser until the wavering made me dizzy! 4. Take 5 minutes to scribble down some notes in my comp book about the day so I (sort of) retain whatever I worked on. The challenge of taking on one course at a time and planning to mesh those lessons with my next deep dive into a weird effect are huge motivators for me. I also try to listen to two albums on repeat each week - something old and something new - and try to jam live at least once a week with somebody. ...man, I am not good at music relative to the amount of brain space I give it each week. Oh well. Just have fun trying stuff.

I was never musical until I was past 65. I joked that I was born with two left ears. And just like my Mom, I bought a piano at 65 and started geeking out, and yes, I'm learning music theory. My daughter loaned me her tenor ukulele, and I bought a baritone now and so I'm crashing guitar videos for ideas. I want to learn the fretboard and master major triads first. But there are no black keys on the fretboard. So I did the next best thing. I put postit notes on my piano keyboard and now I have strings on my piano. I had to move my bench way to the left and my left hand is practicing learning chords and inversions. That really helped things click. Next are minor shapes, the Circle of Fifths progression, and it'll be time for lunch.

Thank you Eric, I am a slow learner but I realised in my 30s that subconsciously my mind/soul has been yearning asking me to "slow it down to learn better". For everything including Jiu-Jitsu, piano, guitar etc. it took me ages to realise that the anxiety came from RUSHING to do something. And if I cannot play slow, I cannot memorise things and play with feels. We could always rush and make the tones good, but practising slower is definitely making my playing better(and suddenly know how to improvise some sweet feels. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. I am learning from your Caged course and I am drawing a line for each session I re-do each of the chapter, and every 5 times the lines will form a Chinese character: 正(I'm of Chinese origin) - The goal is to fill up the top page with a tons of 正s. So far my ears and memories are getting better without forcing. Zen zone is the way. Thanks Eric.

We as people hate to take the time to learn. We want instant results. Being disciplined in practice is important, but don't forget why we play. We play because we love music, so be sure to have fun, and enjoy the music you are creating as you practice. All work, and no play is never fun, and music is for fun, so just jam out and have fun. When I started playing guitar over 50 years ago, we didn't have KZbin with endless lessons, so ever in of gain was hard fought for. Today we can learn very fast from KZbin and other tools available to help teach. Use these tools and you will get better much faster.

The story writing analogy is just so true. The notes are there are on the guitar fingerboard already. When playing single string lead lines you just need to hear what you want to play in your head and then translate it to the guitar, even if it’s just note by note.

During Covid, I learned how to master the fretboard from Guitar Mastery Method. It opened up my world of guitar playing. How do I use it? Improvising to backing tracks. I don't spend time doing Page, Hendricks, Gilmour, Clapton, SRV, etc etc etc. I spend time improvising and creating and experimenting and it's amazing where it takes me. So much fun playing in major and minor using pentatonic and diatonic, experimenting with all the modes, and of course I love the blues. Love the clarity of you guitar, Eric.

First thing first, that Firebird is sweeeet. I'm more of a rhythm guitarist but for what seems like centuries, doing the basics barre chords. In fact for the past 30 years not moving forward. I took to listening to this video and it's the first I've came across by yourself, I picked up the guitar, barre chord C, bottom E 8th and played a 4 note scale from G, bottom E 3rd fret.... Started going forward with an F, E, D and A I think. Quite stoked that instead of just covering songs it's the first I've actually progressed a little. What a great video, big fan already. 👏👏👏

Playing guitar and having music around me, as often as I can, is the best way to stay happy and get through my life! Each morning, before I catch the metro for work, I play for about ten minutes. That sets me off perfectly! I start my day in a relaxed, sometimes inspired and satisfied way. That's the wonderful thing about electric guitars: You can play them unplugged at 6 o clock in the morning, without disturbing your wife (who thinks I'm a nerd) and your neighbours (who probably think the same)! :-)

not gonna lie, man... when I saw during the week you posting some pedal steel over something I thought we`d have some `hendrix doublestop something`. but this is even better. From experience, what I use the most from your CAGED course on TrueFire is practicing my strumming hand. I didnt realize I knew so few rythm types, and that a few notes would colour so much between my chords. Now everything I already know I try to Bo Diddley it for a few minutes when I pick up the guitar in some different chord shapes. The confidence man, it`s already there!

I would say the biggest hugest lesson I got from Eric was waaaay back on the video where he covered One More Cup of Coffee for the road, and the Andulusian cadence. The big eureka was that there is a pentatonic scale behind every chord! Once I absorbed that, and started practicing it every day (over a year now), the fretboard makes sense and my playing is way more cohesive.

Your content just keeps getting better, it's been an honor watching your channel grow like this. I love watching you play and listening to your ideas. Thankfully most everything from this list are already things that I do on a regular basis (especially finding any minute during the day possible to just PLAY something). What I do is play a certain list of arpeggios and other phrases to warm my hands up. From there I print off 5-6 exercises or challenging riffs/licks that I want to master for the week. Once I have mastered those exercises I move them around on the neck and really familiarize myself with what notes are being played. Then I refresh the exercises! :D Thanks for the video Eric you're awesome!

I discovered your videos a few weeks ago, and you've already opened up my playing more than anything in years! I'm really starting to fall in love with the instrument again. Also, you always have the most wonderful tone, so it's such a joy to listen to you play. Then you dropped in the line from Jockey Full Of Bourbon! Pure perfection. Gonna have to learn that now

Eric, don't call us out like that 😂 too true about cramming may have worked before but not with something like guitar. Attention to detail is so important like you mention, you could learn so much by playing one note differently.

Everything you said is what I’ve been doing. I have my core stuff that I play/practice everyday. I love watching your videos. Your approach just makes sense and is so much more intuitive and better suited towards the end goal which is to create and make music. Thank you so much Eric.

I realize this is isn’t a “practice” tip, but: Take every opportunity to play with other people. It’s fantastic to play with people that are better than you. But it’s even useful to play with people that can learn from you (if you have the right attitude). In any of those situations, try to be MUSICAL (it’s not a contest, or a chance to show off) An hour playing with musicians is worth MANY hours practicing. And have a guitar that you leave out…so you pick it up a lot.

Being a self taught guitarist, I always struggled with what to practice. Thanks for some good ideas.

I'm right there with you on that, (I've been playing guitar since I was 12, mostly strumming), But, I want to challenge myself, so Lately, I've been working on figuring out double string harmony walk ups, and walk downs, (I accidentally figured out a walk up where one string goes up, "the upper string"), while the other string "the lower string", goes down) It's very challenging being a "self taught guitarist", but, It's very satisfying "when you get it", I'm 63 now, and, trying to learn something new every day, But, Eric's tutorials really make me want to broaden my horizons

I love your ever so gentle campaign against the widdly-widdly fretboard diarrhoea brigade. To paraphrase John Wayne: play low, play slow & don’t say too much. ✅ 2:00 sounds like the theme to a very excellent dark British sitcom called Black Books.

That's a bit Marc Ribot's intro solo to "Jockey Full of Bourbon" (Tom Waits). It's been metioned before that whoever did the Black Books music was likely a fan!
