  • These are fantastic lessons and the visual aspect has made me realize how the root inversions and the 1st inversions can intertwine....I have been practicing more than ever!! Is there a way for you to present your ideas on shifting from one mode to another...let's say dorian to mixolydian without focusing on just the root note?

  • If you're in say, the key of C, then Dorian and Mixolydian would still use the C major scale. D dorian and G mixolydian are just the C major scale.

  • gr8 lessons man! i hope u keep posting! thmubs up!!

  • Thanks. How about letting me know what sort of videos you want me to make? DON'T ask me to show you how to play a particular song though. I'd like you to figure them out for yourselves by using your ears. :)

  • To date, you are the only person who is able to explain theory in a way that makes sense to me. Your charts are simple and elegant. Huge thank you.

  • Very helpful. Thanks.

  • wow this guy knows how to teach be proud man for real good job

  • the first and sixth strings are the same note. low e to high e.

  • hence the name inverted, from what I comprehend

  • I dont get this!! The root note (where the chord name comes from) should be in the bass note right? But here all the roots are in the highest note!!

    Could you please explain this? I really dont get that..

  • You've got a fan, good lesson..especially helpful on how the patterns are recognized across the fret board. I think folks early on are intimated by any chords that are out of the 1st position and they do not realize how the guitar chord system simply transfers up and down the neck, this helps folks realize that you can pick a chord formation and the chord itself will change to another with a simple move up the fret board.

    I think most here would be helped by learning about the "CAGED" theory

  • Great lessons mate, but I'm a little confused: for example the CEG major triad makes up the Cmajor chord, each note repeating once. So why do we have to learn the 1st inversion tirads if they are the same notes?

  • This is the most instructive lesson ever. Thank you thank you!
