CAGED System for Guitar (Part 1 of 2)

[metalfreak4677]

Still don't get it. :(

lol wut

[kingotaco]

question can you play those chords without barring them. for instance just play it in the shape of the of the chord it looks like. those seem impossible to do when you bar them.

[guitargameschannel]

All of the shapes overlap, but I wouldn't call them the same.

[cleaningagent101]

why does no one ever point out that C and D are the same shape?

[TobyLoaf]

@cleaningagent101 Because they actually aren't - they seem the same because of the more noticeable cluster of common notes between them than other adjacent chord shapes. For example, between A shape and G shape there are three common notes (on the D, G & B strings). The C and D shapes seem the same because of the more "noticeable" commonality of the G, B & E strings. In reality, the lowest 3 strings (in pitch) - E, A & D, must change, especially when utilizing all 6 strings (aka D/F# shape)

The C and D are the same shape? To me the are not the same shape at all, far from it.

[JimThayer]

This is wonderfully clear presentation. Thank you.

[dramsey1991]

This was a super helpful video and it made caged a lot more clear. However, i do not get the not on the e string once you got to the d shape. They all made perfect sense until that. Can you help me with that at all? like, if i were to play that a half step down the fret board, would i use that note? im just a little confused. Thanks for the vid

[MrJacko03]

Well...if the fretboad was not inversed i would be a great thing ;o) This is just confusing to me...

[daboomerang319]

I have purchased two videos, read 20 websites, watched dozens of You Tube Videos on the CAGED SYSTEM. Then I watched this 7 minute video and the light came on! Thanks!

[mygad]

Nicely explained. Well done.

[AmphisTheBand]

so what if you have the F chord? how to find all shapes there?

[lexnosl]

@AmphisTheBand The shape of the F chord is the same shape as an E chord, only moved up 1 fret and you bar what would be the open strings with your first finger.

[guitargameschannel]

The software is called Super Scale Trainer.

[dvrmatt]

What software are you using- pretty handy.

Thanks

[kuzmaniac05]

this is great!!! thanks for posting this, i really understand what i was told so long ago from your explination

[AndreasHaugen]

I Already knew all that, but how do i make SOLO OUT OF THIS!?

[georgiegogo1]

@AndreasHaugen You use your own mind and create ides and sounds, that come from your own love of music, theory is just a mere foundation to actual playing!

[BlueSuedeTom]

What "Software" are you using?

[SirLanceMan]

why does the D shape have a root note on the low E string

[guitargameschannel]

The note on the sixth string is not the root its the third of the chord. It is included for reference and helps in building scales and arpeggios across all the strings, not just the top four.

[guitargameschannel]

That's always the confusing part, two letters for one scale or chord. Yes, you can use any of the 5 shapes (C,A,G,E,and D) in the key of C and it covers the entire neck. Of course you can change keys and use the 5 shapes in other keys as well.

@guitargameschannel

As a learner with no specific teacher what Ive ended up with its lots of unorganized info. Im starting to make sense of it, bt only after getting out a big jot pad and a pen and drawing the fretboard with notes, writing out scale notes and looking where they sit on the fretboard. I recently started to get my head round the 5 pentatonic shapes (though not fully) and was wondering if there is a correlation between those shapes (5) and the caged shapes (5). Id guess there is.

[sicktkdchick]

so all of the shaped are in the key of c but your using the different shapes.

[GeorgeCassells]

Awesome, thanks a lot for putting this up.

[musiciohann]

I think this has been the best explanation of the CAGED guitar system I've seen on YouTube

[backingtracksuk]

very well explained, thanks

[pubbies]

thanks a lot! IT's great
