David Beebee's YT channel: - / @davidbeebee
In this course, Tom Quayle and David Beebee guide you step-by-step through the process of visualizing the fretboard using two-point intervallic function shapes - the most powerful and efficient system to visualize anything, anywhere on the guitar.
In addition, the course also provides a highly organised practice plan for working with the Solo - Fretboard Visualization App (iOS). You’ll learn to practice using Solo in exactly the way Tom and David teach their students and use it themselves.
Encompassing 5 hours of tuition, split across 12 sections and 72 videos, Tom and David clearly explain their unique two-point method, and systematically teach how to learn, apply and practice it with the Solo - Fretboard Visualization App (iOS).

@rodolfoamaralguitar 6 месяцев назад

According to Playstore, over 5000 users have downloaded Solo, so as an Android user I'm honestly disappointed to not have an update after two years or so. Besides, in this update there is still not chord drones or edit custom changes (two of the most requested features).

@DaveDurango 6 месяцев назад

Very disappointed. Maybe sales would be better if they actually advertised their product on RU-vid. I think it's been 2 years since they've made a video about it? I could be wrong. I just don't understand why they don't use the Solo channel to do daily or multiple uploads per week. They could film a months worth in a day. Just playing through changes or quickly running through programs on the app. Perfect for shorts.

@rodolfoamaralguitar 6 месяцев назад

@@DaveDurango The truth is that we Android users have paid the same for the app as iOS users and we have been left aside. So far we have not received any solution or alternative, such as the possibility of changing our current Android license to iOS (not even a discount coupon). The only thing I know right now is that if I want to use the new version I have to (apart from buying an Apple device) spend 18 euros again (which I honestly don't plan to do).

It very well may be apple is more secure for the seller, since android is a slightly more wild world. But this will motivate me to finding a way to get it in my hands while its not even being offered to me.. i bought ireal pro twice once they had a real good version for android.

Wish all courses worked like this. So, thank you. On a side note: you are a great teacher Tom and you genuinely come over as a really nice guy. That makes granting you my money really easy.

@icarusi 6 месяцев назад

I've always used the whole/half interval system for diatonic modes, so apart from the multiple note intervals, I'm always thinking in an interval based system. I was recently considering what are the fewest notes, of any diatonic mode, need to be played before its mode is defined. I think it was 5-6. You need the octave notes plus the 2 halftone intervals. If the halftone is next to either octave note, 5 notes will suffice. I think it will also work for melodic and harmonic minor scales & modes. If there's other than a 2 or 3 wholetone intervals between 2 halftone intervals then you're no longer in diatonic scales. A single wholetone between the halftones and you're in melodic minor + modes, and 1.5 wholetones for harmonic minor. More than 4 whotones in a row (or sequence using those intervals) you're out of melodic minor and in wholetone scales, more than one HWH interval sequence in an octave and you're out melodic minor + modes and into HWH multiples, repeat HW and exotica!

Wow, this looks perfect for me! Buying. I was waiting on Solo because I wasn’t sure I was ready yet. Now I’ve completed learning the root notes and a caged study course, so it seems like the perfect time to jump into solo v2 and the ultimate course. Question: I was about to purchase David Beebee’s Pathways to Jazz vol 1. If I complete the ultimate course, will it make David’s course redundant? Would it make sense to jump into vol 2 after studying the ultimate course? Thanks!

This sounds great, I love the philosophy of this system you’re presenting. I remember learning about intervalic functions back in my college days but I was never able to apply it to the fretboard and can 100% relate to the frustration you’re referring to! So I’m keen to check out the course and the app! In my context I’m playing pretty much entirely diatonic pop/rock stuff. I assume the course and app will be great for that? I know it will cover a lot of jazz and non-diatonic stuff so I’m just curious if they would be a bit overkill for my context. Perhaps the concepts alone are worth the price of admission!

@sunnibird 5 месяцев назад

It wouldn't look the same on my guitar since your tuning is different. Does the course take that into consideration? Because I've noticed you don't do lessons in standard tuning, which is understandable, but for this lesson, which is shapes it would make sense.

@crazygirlfun1 5 месяцев назад

Just to be clear, the course itself is available online for PC users too? Or is it tied to the iOS app in some way? I don't own a single apple product. Just want to be sure if the course is fully accessible to PC users, and what I'm missing out on if it's meant to be used in tandem with the iOS app.

The course is available for PC but you do need the iOS version of Solo v2 to use the course properly, since all the practice routines and teaching utilises the app.

Not a good player me, but i like how you promote that kind of mindset for learning instead of the damned black dots which just down the line after many years make many people think: " i feel CAGED, boxed, 3npsed or whatever..." just like you say in the video. More power to scale degrees (or note functions) way of learning. :)

Hey Tom, dissapointing that you've dropped support for the Android version. Is it purely that there's not just enough of a return vs the cost of development? Have you considered partnered with other popular guitarist channels on like Rick Beato, Paul Davids or Nik Nocturnal to showcase Solo? I feel like there's a pretty large untapped audience of people outside your circle that would love the app/course. I found out about you from my Dad who already has a wealth of knowledge on many guitarists that he shares with me out there but not everyone has my Dad. I hope you consider it because your teachings deserve to be seen by more people and hopefully Android users could have a bit more of a chance if it proves to be successful. Appreciate you sharing what you have with us either way.

@tomquayleguitar 6 месяцев назад

We haven't dropped support per se - we will still ensure that the Android version runs and works with every OS update etc. At this point we just can't commit to releasing version 2.0 for all manner of business related reasons. We've thought long and hard about it. Thanks for your kind words.

If you transcribe by ear, with time your eyes matches your ears and you learn all of that naturally, i don't understand why on youtube there is so many lessons on visualizing the fretboard and so little on transcribing by ear. ( i don't mean to critisize anyone). Maybe i am missing something that i don't see?

@menamgamg 6 месяцев назад

I always transcribed everything i learn myself, so for me with improv it was more natural to take the samd kind of approach but really it's also because of a lack of another option. Kind of trying to learn to connect myself to the instrument so it becomes like singing.. so i can improvise and play melodically but i still dont know what in doing because im just using all the shapes as a map basically and nothing else. The way i see it, if i can understand the harmonical context of every single note im playing that would open up tons of possibility of experimentation to consciously focus on certain note choices i find interesting which would help develop my ear to intuitively play those notes as well.

@adrienblancke4826 6 месяцев назад

But I don’t see how you can transcribe by ear and not consequently realize and see the intervals that you are playing and their relation to the root.Oooh wait I understand now it is because I did a lot of interval ear training on the instrument that I had this knowledge even before I started to transcribe by ear, I guess you can call it two points system. I get it now but still I think there’s always a big risk of emphasizing to much an app like this without talking a lot about transcribing by ear , which ends in a very mental, calculating way of improvising where playing the chords changing becomes more important than playing what you hear. That’s what the huge difference between a guy like Guthrie govan for ex and a lot of jazz/fusion improvisers. For a lot of them when they improvise, it sounds way to mental and not enough comes from what they hear…

@menamgamg 6 месяцев назад

Yeah that's exactly it i think! Ive played for a long time and im technically very advanced but never knew even basic theory stuff until the last 2 years or so. Ive recently realized the importance of practicing hearing intervals and being able to identify them by ear, but it's very difficult for me even though i can transcribe pretty much anything. It's two completely different things and it's just another one of those things where i have to start from scratch and feel like a total beginner who knows nothing lol.. Ofc i have a big advantage already and will probably learn fast, but still been a bit overwhelmed with learning all that but i'm going to try to make it a daily habit to practice it.

Of course you should also earn money! And a good idea is worth marketing. But that's exactly why I can't understand why iOS was chosen instead of the much more popular Android. Maybe Tom has always been an iPhone user and that's why they focused on iOS first out of habit. No idea...
