learn a progression like that up the neck with CAGED chords in every position. Then do it around the circle of fifths. Learn voicings on the high and low strings. I did it for a couple months with vi-IV-I-V and now I can just find any chord I want somewhere close to where my hand is, helped my playing so much.

@@Rīñrnp I don't, I'm just decent at theory and could figure it out. Lots of info out there though. My best advice is to not try to play too many strings, it's OK to mute a couple.

The base pattern chosen for the top 3 strings was an interesting choice - got me thinking more about musical modes and how we don't actually need to resolve our licks to the actual key itself. In the case of this video, while the notes themselves match the key of D Major, the scale pattern starts and stops on the 5th degree of said scale, so we're actually hearing an A Mixolydian scale played over the top of a D Major chord progression - very cool stuff. Makes me want to explore the nearby pattern of playing the G Lydian scale over the top of the same chord progression :).

As a teacher myself I can say that you are a great engaging teacher, I learnt a lot from this as it is highly adaptive. One thing I found while playing with the connecting riffs was by making the last note of the riff the root note of the next chord meant I finished the riff on the chord which added flow to the rhythm. Many thanks.

This was really a light bulb moment video.. I’m going to work on this. My playing is boom chuck ie alt base chuck. This really explains a lot I never”got”. I was clueless when my turn to solo. Now I have a a clear idea of the mechanics. The next hurdle will be trying to sort out the timing. Lots of eight and sixteenth notes to figure out.

Sometimes the same thing can be explained a thousand times and only the time you didn't expect that it finally starts making sense! I always wondered how to connect chords and individual notes, how it looks so seamless and effortless on others. Watched loads of videos on individual mechanical cogs that make it happen, but never found the right voice that connected the dots. Perhaps that is a testament to the growth of my ability too that has helped with the understanding, but there's no doubt about it - you are a great teacher!

A very good example of what you are trying to get across is "Canon in D" which plays basically a D major scale throughout all of the changes (including your progression's chords) but adding an F#m of course only changing the beginning or root note . Nicely done without sounding condescending to the newer players.

After spending hours drilling on the 5 major pentatonic scale positions, their major scales, and then the 7 modes and wondering “wtf am I supposed to do with this crap?” Someone finally puts it into perspective and helps fill in the gaps. I can see we’re playing a D major scale within the F# Phrygian shape. I can see we are in the 3rd position major pentatonic pattern. All of this knowledge is worthless if I just start playing random notes super fast, but not understanding the phrasing and rhythm. I struggled with this gap for so long and finally, someone lays out a 5 step approach in a 16 minute video, lol. I’ve spent 2 hours going through the material in this video and am only on step 3. I know from all my hours and hours of drills what scales/mode shapes I could play, but I don’t know what notes I should play. Thanks for helping me figure this out!!!
