The brilliance of your compositions combined with your ability to break them down into useable pieces for us all to understand and improve our own experience with the guitar is extraordinary !!! You're like that ONE magician who will take you behind the curtain and show you how the tricks are done. NEVER change!!! ❤️🎸🔥

One of the things I love about playing for the last 36 years is we never ever stop learning. I've been venturing into lead after playing mostly rhythm for years. Your videos help me get to the next level.

About 35 years ago I was looking for a teacher to help me learn single note jazz soloing. I asked one of these instructors how a guy like Joe Pass can go up and down a neck like that. His answer: "Well, Joe Pass is GOOD" as he handed me a bunch of Mel Bay books.

Hi Brian I was trying to learn scales for so long and modes.. I kept on forgetting them I couldn't get my head around modes I was going crazy and thought perhaps I'll never be able to improvise. After becoming a member and downloading caged shapes over scales and your simple explanation for modes. And all your other great lessons I have become a good intermediate guitar player Your right!! your teaching is different but hits the right chord..

Very cool Brian. You wouldn’t be you if you skipped the “boring stuff” anyone can follow along with notes but it takes a true professional to be able to teach this stuff the way you do. Please don’t change.

There is another way-you can make a mixolydian or Lidian using the major pentatonic as a basis, and Dorian and Frigian can be made from the first box of the minor pentatonic by adding 2 more notes there according to a simple pattern.

Looks to me like whatever key you’re in, find that root on the 6th string and the note just below on the 5th string, same fret, is the root of the major scale to play over it. Thus below A is D, below G is C, below B is E, and so on.

I try to think about the mixolydian as a major scale that starts on the 5th interval. So a g mixolydian are the same notes as the C major scale, starting on the 5th interval, G.

Use your ear - start with the major scale and see what needs to be adjusted. See 8:27

No, that would be an E minor. See 19:07 in the video where I reference another lesson that explains why.

👍🙏 my only problem is to know at the start of the song which mode shall I use to Is my understanding right that I have to know context - other chords? And e.g. when the chords path is A to G = 5th to 4th than I have to use D major = 1th which is paralel with G myxolydian Is it possible to use such template or is it nonsense? Thnx for reaction🙏and greetings from🇨🇿🥃

Just let your ear tell you what to do. Don’t think about what mode or scale to use… feel your way through the notes and then analyze after the fact what it was you were doing.

It’s simpler just to flatten the 7th, learn the intervals, you’ll never go wrong!
@activemelody
2 күн бұрын
Yes, but… to play through the scale quickly all over the fretboard without having to think about it, requires the finger dance of the major scale. You don’t have time to remember flatting the 7 when you’re playing it fast

@activemelody I was taught by a decent gigging musician and he insisted I could play C Major anywhere, and at a decent speed. Then he worked me through the scales 1#, 2# etc. Then triads on the top three strings. We never mentioned scales or modes. But, really I think he was teaching me keys,modes,ear training and intervals. I just never realised it.
