What You Won't Do For Chords

[@barrysebastian9584]

I just shake my head in awe. Very cool (and, you handled the “interruptions” with aplomb - well done🙌😁. Merry Christmas!

[@toddcowart]

Thanks for this Noel. Also- this is my first Christmas since I learned about the flippening and I can’t believe how common flippening modulations are in Christmas tunes 🤯

Beautiful guitar voicings, thank you for sharing! (This is exactly what I’ve been interested in lately)❤

Had to comment just for the B9 joke at 8:31. Haha. Had to rewind to get it. Nice teaching too. I’m early stage on guitar, but this is a nice framework for thinking and for approaching the guitar with intentionality. Thanks for the lesson!

Love this progression breakdown!

[@augustusbetucius2931]

This feels like the spirit of Ted Greene. It very much makes me think of his chord studies.

Beautiful voicing at 7:00

Hey Noel! Love your lessons. Why are you thinking Lydian Dominant for the Bb7 chord again? I don't really get its function.

[@nohjoh08]

You could treat it as a regular V chord, but I think it fits better as a “non-functional” dominant in that it doesn’t resolve as you’d expect (going from Bb7 to DbMa). Lydian-Dominant is often a good choice for those kinds of dominants.

[@tinski]

@ Thanks a ton! That movement (“VI7 -> I”) sounds really nice to my ears. Any intuition on why that might be? I can’t make any sense of it :-/ Really liked “Voicing Modes” and the Web App btw

[@madguy22]

Hi, excellent material, thank you for the video! BTW What string gauge do you use on this telecaster?

[@nohjoh08]

Thanks. Those are .10’s

[@UnitedEffect]

You mentioned you have a book. How would one go about purchasing a copy... or if you have more than one? Really enjoying your videos since finding it a week or so ago. Thanks.

[@nohjoh08]

Thanks for asking. My books are available on Amazon and at my website noeljohnston.com.

Hello, I would like to check your "Creative Guitar Fundamentals" school!

[@nohjoh08]

Cool! Let me know your email address (or message me @noeljguitar via instagram) and I can tell you more about it.

[@augustusbetucius2931]

Which book is this from? I have your page pulled up, but am not sure which one this is from.

[@nohjoh08]

Those chords shapes are from the book, “Voicing Modes” - look in the reference section (2nd half of the book), there are some melodic voicings. A separate page for E string melody and B string melody for each chord type. So, this page I have on the screen is a compilation of 4 separate pages from that section.

[@cowcrossstreet]

Interested in checking out your "Creative Guitar Fundamentals" school. Should I email you directly?

[@nohjoh08]

Yeah! You can message me via NoelJohnston.com or on instagram @noeljguitar

[@iwokeupthismorning2]

There are a couple chords that can make you loose your gig in there;). But since there are no more gigs we can play wathever the chords we want lol 🎉

[@neuroxik]

You're so quick at transitioning voicings like it was 2nd nature

[@CapnGuitars]

You can't see the chord chart..?

[@nohjoh08]

Those particular shapes are a compilation of shapes from my book “Voicing Modes”

@@nohjoh08 Guess I'll have to work them out by ear. Thank you for uploading; you have a nice playing style
