[AngryRobot87]

[drushtvo]

[fireang3l]

someone can pls kindly give me some website for guitar theory learning,pm to my user,thanks

[twixcookie]

Thanks, I am doing better with the fretboard. It makes me appreciate a good guitar player when I am learning like this!

[twixcookie]

I understand how to make a scale, but I have to work it out on the fretooard, I can't instantly play it without figuring the steps. Is it better to memorize as many chords as possible instead, as I don't see how one can memorize all of the scales on the fretboard.

[ky2534]

having to work it out on the fretboard first is fine as long as u understand the scale pattern, it takes alot of time for people to insantly know where to go for any scale u will get to that level with alot of time and practice dont worry about it but btw its definitely not easier to memorize every chord thats impossible theres so many chords dont worry about it

[twixcookie]

I am trying to learn guitar, but I am having trouble memorizing all of the notes on the fretboard. People tell me there are patterns but that doesn't help when I try to instantly find a note, I have to find the string, and count down the steps to find the notes. I can't memorize all of the scales, either, and find a note on the fretboard within a particular scale. I am amazed others can do this.

[ky2534]

dude ill tell u what i told the other guy its fine if u have to find a string and count down the steps, in time you'll just know where to go and where it is instantly but with scales dont try to memorize them all just memorize two or three but use those for backup when u try to find scales using the scale patterns

all in all dont memorize the tons of scales just remember the two scale patterns its alot easier

[poutin01]

just keep on practicing and you'll get it.

[MgEscalona7]

ok... my thing is i got the a minor scale and the blues part added to it.... but i want to know like how move up and down but keep that same bluesy feeling, you kno what i mean??

Like how far do i move up the neck?

@iVideosongs

this is super helpful thanks!

[satchsatch33]

@iVideosongs Hi ! Can you tell me if yours fingers tips sometime hurts (or if it's mildly painful) ? cause I noticed that your fingernails are short in your left hand (I have eaten my nails to, and they seems like yours....). Sorry for my crappy english....

[6trung]

I'm in no way a beginner on guitar but this video was great. I'm self taught so to find out how all the chords are made up is a good thing to know.

[HarlequinCopse]

Even though I know all of this stuff, its still a great lesson for beginners. Good job!

[iVideosongs]

Thanks for the positive comment.

[oiyabastard]
