Rick Hi, I’m a long time beginner and been trying to memorize the fret board. Extremely difficult until I ran across your lessons. You are an amazing teacher. I’m know how to find the notes but now I’m beginning to really remember. Thank you and I also purchased your book so I don’t have to keep rewinding. Writing the notes down also helped me memorize notes and seeing the comparison of let’s say the E-6 and A string side by side made the light bulb come on that they are basically the same only starting up one fret on the B. Thanks Again!!

Ricky, This was awesome! I got pencil and paper, followed you along, and did a couple of extras just to make sure the concept soaked. Then when you put it on the fretboard it really came together! I'm off now to get the guitar and try to apply what I have just learned. Favorite instructor!!!

@Sugrshane 5 месяцев назад

You mentioned the gift of gab in a previous lesson that actually fits your teaching and personality perfectly!! I know it’s sounds cliche but 3 or more years of researching and just digging for theory that my brain could lock on to, you’re straight to the point with a lil humor hear n there is sure your the best fit for my music journey!!!

@theelephant2887 2 года назад

Good lesson. I guess the only thing missing for me is what dictates the uppercase and lowercase Roman numbers you added below each scale

@rickysguitar 2 года назад

Uppercase Roman numerals indicate Major tonality. Lowercase indicate minor tonalities.

@theelephant2887 2 года назад

@@rickysguitar Ricky, thank you for taking the time to answer my question. My question wasn't clear enough. What is the reason behind notes 1, 4, and 5 becoming major chords, and notes 2, 3, and 6 minor.

@walshydpo 2 года назад

Thanks Ricky. A couple of budgie bells gone off in my exhausted brain. I've tried to stop and learn some theory dozens of times but I inevitably get lost, give up, open a beer and and play Chuck Berry and Little Richard chords. My I, IV and V Major chords as I now recognise them. You explain things well, I'll Stick with. Thanks again from Lee ,aged 55 and a half.

@robertakerman3570 2 года назад

Hi Lee, It seems to look like a pie-wheel to Me. As I see different keys, the pattern remains; just starts in a different place. Needs research. Cheers

@noodlesiis Год назад

Got some of it… Up to the Roman numerals then it went a bit Pete Tong..

@donk.5730 2 года назад

Great lesson Rick , Thank you. What I don't understand is where the minor chords fit on the fretboard- because where you have Dm in the Bb-example , that fret location is actually a C. So, I have some confusion about that part. I get the Major progression: I-IV-V fret position, but miss something with the minor part. Any time to answer this, I'm sure I'm not the only one here asking....Cheers, Don.

@Mexxx65 2 года назад

....but I don't really think if a musician knows the distance interval between the motes in the major scale, will help them in anyway, in producing good music, by just using their ears.

@rickysguitar 2 года назад

ah using their ears....what if they can't use their ears? You need to know this to understand music theory so you can apply it to your instrument. I can assure from teaching for over 30 years you need to know this stuff so they don't spend YEARS fumbling for notes and chords.

@thesunnysheepguy 2 года назад

How do other keys structure and relate to the fretboard?

@rickysguitar 2 года назад

The L7 Grid is a movable framework. Just slide it up or down the neck to your desired key. This lesson digs into chords in the grid BUT also what you need to memorize until you just KNOW it like your birthdate!
