Accountability after two days : Learned the pattern of the Dorian mode, I am practicing D Dorian for two days, I will practice the Dorian mode of all 12 keys!! 😊 After 4 day: While practicing the Dorian mode, I am also practicing the phrygian mode. Learned the formula for Ionian, Dorian and Phrygian. Ionian: Root, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh. Dorian: Root, second, flat third, fourth, fifth, sixth and flat seventh Phrygian: Root, flat second, flat third, fourth, fifth, flat sixth and flat seventh. 😊

There was also an audio issue around 56 minutes in.

I’m a big Eric Johnson fan and I try to visualize/use the fretboard like he does. It’s been rather difficult as I can see all of the pentatonics in all 12 the fretboard. But there is more to his pentatonics than that. But he can beautifully use a wider aperture of notes that aren’t just in the pentatonic scale. For the longest time I didn’t know where the notes came from but then the major scale started to make itself clear. It wasn’t just the major scale, but it was his mix of whatever mode was available to him near whatever pentatonic scale he was in. This video has helped me visualize the pentatonics in a more harmonious fashion. It’s been about two weeks and I can better recall intervals and I can see where I am on the fretboard with a greater degree of accuracy. I even got better at chord spellings which was always difficult. This video has put me one step closer to into understanding the anatomy of an Eric Johnson solo/ harmony. Thank you!

@miromax811 Месяц назад

Another explanation that helped me to understand the modes: Major scale / ionian mode intervals: whole step, whole step, half step, whole step, whole step, whole step, half step or WWHWWWH All subsequent modes use the same intervals, but they are shifted to the left. So the dorian intervals are WHWWWHW, the phrygian intervals are HWWWHWW and so on.

@solenpensel Месяц назад

100%, refering to modes as just shapes doesn't make any sense. To understand the whole picture you have to understand that a mode is a scale with different intervals.

@KyLesCaster Месяц назад

Yeah i get that, but how the heck do i get that to stick in my head. i can remember wwhwwwh (major) and whwwhww (minor) but idk if i got the brain powers to remember the other 5

@fantombouquet Месяц назад

@@KyLesCaster try learning which intervals are flattened etc., as well as tying them to songs while you learn? I've been practicing the grateful dead's dark star lately which is in A Mixolydian / E Dorian / D Major, which has helped me realize and build the muscle memory that Mixolydian flattens the major scale's 7th, while dorian flattens the 7th and 3rd, etc.

@JoePawlikowski 23 дня назад

I didn’t comment “accountability” because I hadn’t gotten that far in the video. It was immediately apparent to me that I had to spend some time on Levels 2 and 3. So I did. For 2 weeks. Every day. In that time I: - Went from 80 bmp up to 93 bpm and then back down to 85. I make enough mistakes that I’d rather not rush through the exercises. 85 is the sweet spot though I might go up 1 or 2 next week. - Saw my times all over the place. Some of my times at 85 were faster than the same scales at 93. - Had my worst day on Day 14. Sure, it was mostly better than Week 1, but almost all of my times on Day 8, also at 85 bpm, were faster than Day 14. - Memorized a fookload of positions. For Level 3 I no longer need a cheat sheet to see what note/position to start on. This really came together in the last 3 days. - Changed picks. I’m 42, have been playing with red jazz picks since age 16. Switched to Dunlop Ultex in the last week which has changed the feel of everything (long term for the better I can already tell). Plan is to forego Level 2 and work on Levels 3 and 4 for the next 2 weeks. We’ll see where that takes me.

These exercises have made a huge difference. I do the 3 note per string one in all keys every day. I also do the triad arpeggio one in every key each day which wasn’t in this video! I’ll work in a couple more of these as they do really help in mastering every note of every key as well as each mode everywhere on the neck. Doing these backwards and on different strings is a great idea. Start that tomorrow. Thank you so much for this information!

your Dedication to not sugar coating and just telling straight facts is awesome. I teach Guitar. If the student Really wants to be good, they will. They will use any means possible to achieve their goals. Ask questions, even if they seem dumb at the time. Learn songs all the way through, not just the intro. The amount of Hours and Dedication a Julian Lange, Mancuso, Steve Morse, Guthrie Govan, Nuno, put into their craft is because they love it

@ariecht1807 Месяц назад

Nice job explaining modes in level 2. I find that the distortion you have set on your amp clouds the ability to hear the tones of each interval vs. If you just played clean tones.

@meeskappert2159 Месяц назад

@moonl1314 Месяц назад

I would have liked a visual of all the mode shapes at once for level 3, though I could just get it somewhere else. Anyways, this video is very comprehensive and you have once again given amazing advice! Your teaching style turns away those who aren't passionate for guitar and encourages discipline, which I admire. Rock on Brandon, you're a great teacher!

@shadehunter 22 дня назад

I knew most of this information already, but I still watched it just in case I could pick up something that I didn't know before. You explained the modes very well, but I would like to say maybe next time mention that Ionian is THE KEY. I remember when I started learning modes way back in the late 2000's that I was just memorizing shapes with no concept of what key I was in (mostly because I was just excited and I didn't fully understand what I was doing). No matter how many musicians I asked and how many articles I read about the modes, it took a long time to sink in that all the shapes were key-dependent. Also, ACCOUNTABILITY. All musicians are just athletes of the fine muscles groups. When doing physical training, accountability is crucial. Playing a musical instrument is awkward to the body because it's not a key component of survival. It's not something that's instantly gratifying like most everything else these days. It takes dedication to build skills just like it would take an athlete months/years to condition themselves. If you want it though, you'll keep working at it. Thank you for the video, Brandon.

Watched 2/3rds of this. Found time to sit down and play, practiced the two Songs I am working through right now. Went to improve and noodle and started picking my way through whatever the E mode is in Cmaj and memorizing that shape I was finding. 2 note and 3 note per string. I still have no idea what this lesson what about or how to use it but it didn't sound half bad, didn't sound sad which where the song was leading but it didn't sound bad.

Not just muscle memory running up and down. I'm stopping the video here, I will try to do the scales starting from high E and work down.
