How to play C major scale on guitar

[blackieja]

Thanks I had taught myself the scales a few years back then hadn't done it for awhile then last night I thought to give it a try again & couldn't remember how to do it & luckily I came across your video. This gave my memory the needed boost to make sense of the confusion the scales were once again driving crazy.

[himynameisfdsa]

(cough)

[bellacheckers]

Thank you!

[wowhobbs3]

im so confused. ive seen like 5 different variations of the c major scale in first position but which one is right?

[tigertrax3]

@wowhobbs3 As long as you don't play any sharps or flats, they are all correct. A c major scale is c to c with no sharps or flats. You can start on a G and its still part of the c major scale. I hope that clears it up a little bit

[wowhobbs3]

@tigertrax3 well theo ne i first learned

Starting on th low e goes

F G B C E F A C D F G

but then i saw a different that goes like

E F G

A B C

D E F

G A

B C D

E F G

[tigertrax3]

@wowhobbs3 its still part of the c major scale.

[JIZZZification]

ms i am confused why is there so many scales like C major scale , pentatonic scale and others ?? hoping for response

[TopOfTheScoreboard]

I learned the entire C major scale just by watching this video. Again, I cannot thank you enough.

[TopOfTheScoreboard]

Thank you for making this video, I've been reading this book and it's frustrating me to no end that I can't even learn how to read something so basic. Thank God we have the internet and I no longer have to experiment until I get it right like an 80's child.

[mpm111144]

@TopOfTheScoreboard LOL...I began learning in the 1950's, when there was nothing, and you had to hopefully find a "good" instructor (who wasn't a rip off), or a friend or relative who already knew how to play. I was lucky...I had a friend AND a relative that gave me "beginner" lessons, plus books to learn by, which was hard. Good luck with your learning guitar. :D)

[chocolatefrogs1992]

lol... this is hard... now i know how hard it really is for a beginner... i mean d technique is easy but oww.. it really hurts... :)

[Mindfreak2543]

Thanks heaps really easy to understand and learn Thanks!

[italgiuliano]

19 seconds.. woahhh

;) aha

[navigatorDNS105]

my fingers tip hurts aaahh.!!!!!

[gtsflying]

dosent it go further than that?

[ed0985587]

that guitar is ancient!! possibly made out of hemp? no way will you give money to the establishment! make your own out of hemp and take down the corporations!!!

[fredjmor]

C major scale doesn't end there...

[mjfan123085]

i am having trouble picking single strings, i keeps strumming the wrong ones, lol.

[mjfan123085]

it seems complicated but i got the first scale down in 5 minutes. but i need to keep repeating it to be faster and install it into muscle memory.

im trying the 2nd position which has more parts and i got half of it down.

just have to memorize them I guess.

how much should a novice practice a day?

[lifestraight]

I'm a novice as well, and I'd recommend at least an hour a day. If you want to get good fast, or simply great, I would shoot for two hours a day.

[xoxKatieMariexox]

I am new to learning the guitar....and it is so hard. I want to be able to play but i feel like i am not getting anywhere. Thanks for this though(:

[mcsephiroth1312]

@xoxKatieMariexox just keep practicing. you'll get there. Guitar is something you build into your mind and fingers

[rwbrdms1]

Thanks for the info! I am a beginner so what is the practical use of the scale(s)? How will this help me to be better?

[karleinararne]

@rwbrdms1 it will help you to be faster in your picking, your teqniuque and you will be able to play some solos in the key of C Major

[rwbrdms1]

Thanks for the info!

[iamlaid]

@rwbrdms1

Mostly for soloing and classical sounding riffs.

[evilgummybear123]

i am sorry but that did not help

[cossatotfalls]

I've been playing guitar for a long time and just now considered to play scales, The last thing i've learned guitar wise.

[lifestraight]

@cossatotfalls Really?? I'm just now learning (a month in) and am trying to learn now. What else should I begin with besides basic chords??

[cossatotfalls]

Tableture, or TAB. Learn some Excercises and/or songs including Hammer-ons and some pull-offs.

[mithinlimon]

u have a cool british accent

[theathehamster]

[serena1523]

[snapplepeachtea56]

[letsnotfail]

Aah! I feel all proud of myself. I've had a guitar for the longest time but have been way too lazy to actually learn how to play.

Thank you for the tutorials!

[bh2333]

[cretin18]

[GibsonLesBrayun]

[reflex1119]

this conversation was over two months ago shut up. i know nothing your watching a c scale video. i only watched it to judge

[fmarcum01]

I don't get it!

[BradCampbell63]

syncronicity-I was fooling with the scales last night trying to blend the country feel with the "c" scale and the "d" scale for a blues feel....all the best

[claredowling]

thanks! It's a very nice looking guitar I bet it sounds sweet? Nice solid body and a fine looking neck, just drooling at it now on an online shop!

[guillaumesansami]

Excellent! I've faved it for reference. By the way I've got a Johnson JD 27 now! I had to share that with you

[pukeythief]

You are one amazing inspiring woman. And you make everything so much easier to learn. Thank you.

[claredowling]

thanks pukeythief!

[ianh321]

Great tuition as always. Not much use to me unfortunately as I can only play gallagher/weller/ashcroft stuff in first position or with a few basic barrs.

Maybe one day though. =)

[claredowling]

nowt wrong with a bit of that! Their great songs to play on guitar and sing too. By the way thanks :-)
