  • @1568bella I advise you to seriously get a pick at most pawn shops there like 50¢

  • i got a guitar for Christmas i need help playing it i haven't got capo or pick

  • thank you so much for doing this!! really helped me to break out of the same old chord positions! always learn something new when on your channel haha! keep rockin buddy! \m/

  • @258lemons Your very welcome my friend!!!!! you too!!!

  • :( i dont get it :(

  • Every chord you play in first position can be played in different parts of the neck (Meaning they are moveable) By that theory, that means one chord must have all 5 shapes, which means they all connect giving you all your selected chords. The shapes are movable to what name you choose. Pay attention to the beginning and read where it says please read. If you still don't get it then go pay for a guitar lesson because you will be less frustrated.

  • watch the first 1:20 over and over till it clicks what I am saying.

    1. I give you the shapes. If you don't know them then learn them. 2. then explain how they are moveable. The secret is with the Nut. When you move them you have to replace the nut with your finger.

  • smoking weed :)

    well during college times, we had the good old days

  • Ya, and Smoking weed and playing Games is Genius!!! 420? Hitlers Birthday? or the 420 time to smoke?

    If your into weed, watch the video "Run from the truth".

    You might discover that Weed has a lot more to offer us than giving munchies and vegging out on the X-Box.

    Zall good though!

  • things to offer... increased musical perception!

    just one drop in a massive bucket :)

  • guitar is just confusing...im a piano player trying to learn, but really struggling, especially with fingerings

  • I hear ya brother

  • It's scary how much you look like a young Robert DeNiro

  • Scary for me... I better get really talented fast if that's what I will look like...lol

  • HEY DenIro is a fine looking man, trust me he is he said if i said otherwise i'd be sleeping with the fishes

  • When he turns to his left, He looks alot like Bobby Dee,When Bob was younger, Except he's more husky than Bobby. "You Talkin To Me?" LOL! Bob, Is a real Down to Earth nice guy He's half Irish, I should know, I met him, Knew his Parents well, Use to work down in Tribeca for yrs, And, I still reside nr him.

  • no way.....John Cena (WWF)

  • I should be a double for the movie industry according to most of the comments here...geeze!

  • u look like action star sir..

  • woah dude! you look like john krasinski!!!

    nice video though. it helped me a lot.

  • he looks like john krasinski

  • talk to me babe- where are you hung-up?

    c'mon- help me, help you.

  • Wow.

    I feel hopeless.lol

    I still don't understand it..

  • damn, if I gotta look at your fugly mug one more time

  • LOL

  • solid free advice

  • looks like john cena

    lol

  • The beginning of this video is good and he explains it accurately and quickly and it still works. the second half he just kind of jumped into it without explaining. Great job on the first half.

  • i know the beginner guitar chords and a few more like about 10 or 15. people say i shud learn more chords that are the most important. can you tell me wich cords are the most used in songs?

  • chords are made to add dimension to an otherwise note-to-note "progression". You decide which progressions you like. Pick a tune and stick to it by first listening to it for the "gist" or "hummable melody". Emulate that gist with ONLY single notes on your guitar. When you've got the basic, simple melody- get your ryhthm down pat. Next add the harmony- the chords. You can build a great early repetoire doing this.

  • Its the CAGED order, and he moves up/down 2 frets everytime. I think its an excellent video, just not for the very early beginner, more like the 1-2 month players.

  • It doesn't move up 2 frets everytime, friend. don't get confused

  • is this a classical guitar?

  • The hip bones connected to the... whatever bone =] hehe

    Thanks for sharing that... bit to advanced for me at the moment... my heads frazzled haha

  • you look like cam neely man

  • my brain got twisted in about 50 ways. I know its sortof understandable but :/

  • wow, you have just unlocked the whole entire guitar neck for me. i have been afraid of it for years now and i knew there had to be some system that made sense and linked it all together! This is the way i learn... someone showing me and explaining it at the same time! Awesome. I am so grateful for people like you on youtube that are willing to help for free. Thank you.

    QUESTION: Is there also this same system for minor chords? Can you do a video about that?

  • Yes there is, you just have to lower the third of a chord a half note down. (C chord = C - E - G, Cm chord = C - D# - G)

  • do i have to keep looking to the right too?

  • lol! yes, that is the most important part. In case anyone wondered what that was about is the computer screen was to my right so I would check to make sure you can see the neck..mostly, sometimes I am just looking at myself...lol

  • i dont understand ANYTHING I AM A BEGGINER

  • and the ending was great

  • great lesson man, i always recommend guitarists to learn this, they have know idea what they're missing

  • Thank you, and yes this is very important if you want to understand the science of music in this lifetime.

  • Where can i go to find out what all this root, 3rd and 5th stuff means? i know like the basic minor and major chords but in order to make them movable i'd like to be able to understand what the parts of a chord are. No one ive seen has been able to explain it well.

  • look in the description box for the video>>

    The numbers indicate the degree or note from the scale in which the notes were taken. example.. the C major scale consists of the notes C=1 D=2 E=3 F=4 G=5 A=6 B=7. The root is the first note of the scale you are making a chord from. In this case C = the root.

  • Thanks a lot. This helped me so much, you just have no idea. :)

  • Thanks,

    You made the fifth third seventh thing and chord transpositions much easier to understand. I'm a visual learner so seeing it helped enormously.

  • hip bone's connected to the errr... I'm not a doctor. Its just the way you said it had me on the floor laughing.

  • brilliant !! wheres the other half ?

  • Thanks! It's in the video response.

  • Finally, someone is posting this stuff. I figured this out on my own a few years back and it changed everything. This is the way the guitar should be taught. It's all about positions and how to use them in conjunction with each other. Once you understand what he is teaching it will open up the whole neck and it will all make sense. It's like a road map for the guitar neck. Keep up the good work.

  • ahh someone help!!!!!!!!!

    this has been driving me crazy..

    what are the 10 little black dots on the guitar?

    im new to this stuff so spare me

  • me 2 :S

  • The Dots on the guitar are nothing more than fret markers or a way to find your position on the guitar neck. They have nothing to do with theory except for the double dotted fret or 12th fret is your octave of the open string. Notice the guitar I am using in the video doesn't have fret markers. They have no purpose really unless you are a beginner, that way you can find the fret number or remember areas of the neck you learned riffs on.

    Hope that helps.

  • I think he would be a great teacher. He doesn't take himself too seriously and adds humor, but, I wish he would start from the absolute beginning guitar players' perspective. I would love to find a guitar teacher with his demeanor/approach. Thx for the post. I wish I could incorporate my "basic" knowledge to grasp the concepts he demonstrates. He's not a doctor,and I'm not a natural guitar player, but I'll keep trying. Thx again.

  • can't get my hands to form a g chord

  • he's mine, we even talk the same way ;P  always smacking our lips.

  • :) :)

  • you are gorgeous!

  • Thank you :)

  • Is this at all related to barre chords?

  • Completely!

  • okay i dont understand guitar at all and this made no sense.

    go slower next time!

  • Go to the description where it says ""Please Read".. If it still doesn't make sense then you will probably need "one on one" lessons with an experienced teacher "Not a friend that plays a bit".

    Good luck!

  • coolest bro!! i'm from Fiji and i'm gonna watch his 4ever till i know the other half of what i could not understand.. thank u for sharing and explaining .... joka!!!

  • Your welcome Joka.

  • the voicings part is interesting, good video

  • Move Your G Shape Up A Step And A Half And Play A D Shape With The Bflat Root.Great Chord!!!!

  • i just got confused..but i guess that will

    happen to beginners??lol..

  • sorry! Yea, this is somewhat advanced I guess. If you know those 5 chords you should be able to grasp what the CAGED sequence is about.

  • Idk but i found this very helpful i didnt understand the caged method really until i watched this so thanks and you did a good job explaining it man

  • ╚☻ö;▌Ω÷

    :O

  • yes, I am completely retarded...lol

  • who does he keep looking at - very off putting...

  • I am looking at the camera screen to make sure you can see the fretted notes.

  • Yo, I must say great lesson. I didn't understand the CAGED theory until now, i have a good grasp of the lesson. I feel stupid because it is so easy , haha good job man.

  • Thank you! I played for 8 years before I discovered plenty of obvious theories. Don't feel bad..we have all been there;) Glad this lesson helped!

  • Good job!

    coldtaxer you suck
