@u2ber87, not by sound, lets go simple, you play 3-5-7-9(frets) that nine sounds out of place, that is because it is sharp. It may be CALLED a half step to move up one fret, but the e and f sounds aka 7 and 8 frets make a way better sound together with a 3-5 as you scale up any string 3-5-7-8 compared to the ending sharp. Sound by sound he actually correct, this is why some memorization lessons or mnemonic devices can hurt your intellegence.

[NameSupplied]

sliding the two notes to know were to bend too helps as it sounds a little like a bend, rather than pick the two strings

[Orthoshlep]

helpful to a beginner. Quit hatin people!!!!

[ChristinaLynnElmore]

dont listen to the haters dude, you can play freal

[havebenthere]

Talks you to death. Show something on the guitar not the public address system! Nobody learns anything from a speech. PLAY THE GUITAR!

[Bokajmunar]

Dude, quit playing.

[mikaelmagnate]

[xXJarvarXx]

for his age, hes very direct he has a good voice and confidence for this.

[pkkda]

Petatonic scale?

[mikinascrays]

There is a B# and Cflat. What you name it depends on what key you're playingin but, the circle of fifths def. has an F#,C#,G#,D#,A#,E#,B#,Bb,Eb,Ab,­Db,Gb,Cb,....

ps

If you don't know this or what a fretboard is NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR YOUR SOLO!

[gamerbri]

What was the point of the guitar on your lap if your not gonna use it?

[lemmycro]

fucking hell! I used to play and still play blues and i know good how to solo in blues but now when I'm trying to play something more heavy like rock or metal and stuff i just can't get rid of that bluesy sound....I hate it

[kevinpolak95]

@lemmycro THATS EXACTLY WHATS WRONG WITH ME

[soundmethod]

@lemmycro Thats what effects are for !

[redknight91]

Lol i love how he talks... a little difficult to understand for me cause I'm italian XD I really love when he says "smooth", sounds like he's melting... "smeuuuuuufff"

[TreyarchIsGay]

WTFs a guitar board 2:55

[MrRiisLarsen]

@TreyarchIsGay Thats the fretboard: the place where you touch the strings, where you put your fingers to make chords and play notes.

[TreyarchIsGay]

@MrRiisLarsen umm no shit

[MrRiisLarsen]

@TreyarchIsGay ... The Fretboard, the place where you play notes and chords.

[TreyarchIsGay]

wtfs a guitar board...?

[UGAboy1974]

[cizanopen]

[MrSpeedgtrst16]

[SEVIL999]

@MrSpeedgtrst16 Practise and then test to play solos from bands?

[NoQuarterBWR]

Best tip for getting ur vibrato going is: twist ur wrist. makes vibrato a joke. there's the tip.

Brian, ure doing an excellent job, man. keep it up. dont listen to others. ure helping a lot of ppl and i find ur lessons clear and easy to understand. i wish i had seen ur channel on utube when u first posted. kudos to u.

[dabom222451]

i never had trouble bending because the first song i learned was sunshine of your love and the solo is like all bending and vibrato

[dabom222451]

I use Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottoms

[doop422]

[giutar24]

BIGGEST PENIS!!!!!!!!

[SlyCooper92]

Take about 5 douzen eggs. Start put em in a bowl. Mix the FUCK out of them and what do you get?

PENIS!!!!!

[dtrojan88]

@SlyCooper92 the f***?

[tpwelie34]

nice tips man

[Hertsman50]

This is really bad, sorry but this is just as bad as his mode examples.

[cjflo]

you're a good teacher, thanks for the tips.

[jar5173]

Nice, but a whole step isn't always up 2 frets like you said. Is that neck just a vintage tinted maple, or is it something different? Its hard to tell from the video.

[12579admin]

yeah but only e-f and b-c other than that everywhere else 2 frets is a whole step....

[bloodypeasant13]

Wrong :(, a whole step is always 2 frets even between b&c and e&f. if you are on b and make a whole step you go to c# not c. A whole step is always an interval of 2. ALWAYS

[jar5173]

A whole step is the distance between consecutive natural notes. From b to c# is a step and a half.

[gofusiesbass09]

wrong. its one whole step. check ur guitar dumbass

[liermam]

No.

[gofusiesbass09]

i wasnt talking about u2ber87. i was talking to jar5173 u FUCKTARDS. READ IT RIGHT

B TO C# IS ONE WHOLE STEP.

[hillside1237]

ah not quite there is only one step between the two...b-c is on half step (as there is no b# or C flat)

[ccsitaround]

thanks for the lesson and great website!

[RyuBlade1980]

Really great!
