Stitch, just purchased one of your hoodies through PayPal. Then I went to donate to your fantastic cause. It came up Sarasota guitar/lessons. Is that you??
Brilliant.. i have never learnt so much about guitar before spendings quarantine months on this channel. Thank you so much man.. and you're so nice on top of being a great teacher.
Always have to watch your lessons twice. The 1st time leaves me asking millions of questions, the 2nd time will usually answer them all. Thanks for another great lesson and the ability to bring everything down to its simplest form - Very few instructors are gifted with this ability.
FREAKING GREAT LESSON!!!! HOLY COW!!!! I'VE BEEN SPENDING AN INORDINATE AMOUNT OF TIME ON 'CAGED SHAPES ALL OVER THE NECK OF MY GUITARS AND FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I PAID CLOSE ATTENTION TO THIS LESSON AND BINGO AND GOT IT RIGHT AWAY!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
I've know a bit about the cage system and have even practiced the shapes, but this exercise puts it together better than anything I've tried so far. For where I am in my training you are the best teacher I've watched on youtube. Many thanks!
Wish I'd learned this 30 years ago. Just this morning I was figuring out how that I could use the different triads just on strings 1-3 to make either major and minor chords of each possible 12 roots, all confined in a zone of whichever 5 or 6 frets. It boils down to being parallel with what you're teaching here. Brilliant, thanks!
Thank you so much. CAGED has always been somehow mysterious to me and despite trying other times to learn it, it has eluded me. This lesson has really opened my ears to how it sounds as it related to the root notes. Great start for me to understand CAGED even more.
Being a blues guy, this is a fun non/pentatonic way to get familiar with the major scale.....I feel like once i learn this, i could probably sit down with any type guitarists/singer and get by....As much as i love the blues, beautiful melodies come from, this scale....
Another awesome video. The major scale he is playing is the Ionion. He has awesome videos concerning modes. You sir are an excellent instructor. Blessings.
Wow...What a cool method!! I've been playing guitar since I was 14 and I'm 51. I wish I knew this when I was 14. Better late than never. Thanks, man..that was awesome!
Ian, this is sort of like medical school where you learn and know everything then forget it. I remember way back when when you showed me the chords that went along with the scale . You are brilliant!
Wow I've just learnt something new,where does music ever end, music must go into eternity,thanks man this has just opened my mind and guitar playing to another level, cheers 👍
I'm just seeing this now and man I was figuring it out my self not fun lolol learing but a GREAT way to show not moving and playing in one spot!! Now I see how the caged system works I couldn't pick it up to understand how to use it, but now the REASONING behind learning the caged!!
Haha oh man, I’ve always been like.. man Ian looks like Someone I’ve seen before. Ah yes, the great Jedi master himself.. well, takes one to know one (thanks for the trey vids dude).. lol good stuff. Love to see it
One of the best guitar exercises I've ever seen to help understand theory. Thanks! Would love to see a higher octave version starting on the D or G string.
Unbelievable ...it really is a mind blaster. I really couldnt believe what i saw before my eyes. It is gonna take me some time to recover from this scale revelation. Thank you Jedi Master Stich
Hi Stitch, your explanations are second to none. I've studied theory and the caged system before but your approach just makes it very understandable very quickly. You are a very gifted teacher.
This is a great lesson. Suddenly I'm creating the chords I hear in my mind while noodling. And more importantly.... they work! Thanks for all the stellar guitar lessons.
Oh man, this is the coolest thing I've learned all week, and I've been doing nothing but learning guitar this week. Some esoteric knowledge here (not really, but it seems like it is). That stuff has been hiding in the fretboard all this time and I just needed you to shine a light. Thanks, Stich!
Another great lesson. I just spent the last 2 hours with this on a rainy day and am having fun. Thanks again for taking the time to explain how the guitar works so we can understand and make music. 🎉😊
This is a great vision on soloing, song writing, chord playing... on whole philosophy of guitar playing. It wold be nice you to continue this video with another series - for example - the same vision for minor scale, for triads on higher 3 strings ( using only triads - not whole chords, and only on higher 3 ( or 4 ) strings - where main soloing work is going on), etc. I know that we can do it ourselves, but as a followers of you - it is our obligation we to push you to give your best in the process ;)... And you explain things so well... Thanks !
Omg whhhhoooooow... I've only just discovered this guy... His approach to teaching is amazing beyond belief.. Thank you so so much for your kind help and time ❤️🎸
That is a really good idea for practice. I can't believe I never thought to do that. Man, I have playing for years and never thought of that! Thank you!
I watched this video again a week or so ago and I have been practicing this daily since then and it has opened up SO much in my understanding--and ability to play. I felt it was beyond my reach the first time, I guess. Or I got distracted by the next shiny object and forgot. Either way, I finally have it--for real! Thanks so much for this eye opener.
Ive subbed a good few channels over the years as a guitar noodler, but if i had to go to a desert island & i could only take one channel ... This is it.
Totally digging this. stitch amazing lessons been trying to play and understand the guitar for many years your ability to method of teaching gets thru to me thank you and Duane this has been one of the most important helpful lessons I’ve ever seen
Thanks, Stich ! A nice piece of the puzzle which pushes me to learn those chords. I'll go back and watch the recommended videos. I've been away for a while, but more time for music now! See you live soon!
Very insightful. I don’t think I’ve seen any explanation like this before. It seems like this will help with playing and creating melodies from the chord shapes.
