  • Nice vid man, Thanks. Why is A,B,C,D,E,F,G the Am scale and not the CMaj scale?? It has no sharps or flats. Is it that Am is the relative minor of CMaj and we're starting on A so... Nope still don't understand..

  • @TheZHBolinger Correct. C major and A minor are the same notes, just starting at a different note/interval. So yeah, that makes A minor, the relative minor to C major. For the major scale in any key, you just take the 6th not of the scale to figure out what is the relative minor.

  • @CROGrof hahaha, hilarious.

  • @CROGrof  Maybe you should try a google search on Classical guitar posture, or try play a flying V sitting down on the right leg. Holding the guitar on the right or left leg doesn't matter if it doesn't effect the ergonomics of your playing posture. Maybe you should comment on some Eddie Van Halen videos and comment how he holds his pick wrong... or better off just stick to something you know about, which seems to be playing video games:)

  • Alone at home guitar???????? You mean the course that Hendrix, Frusciante, Muddy, SRV, Johnny Winter and countless others attended....at home.......listening to records because their parents couldn't afford music classes? Damn straight. Thank goodness our children can log onto a computer and get helpful videos like this on YT. Thanks for the vid!

  • Me jus starting out, concentrating on one string and running the scale and knowing the names of the notes on that one, helps alot to transfer it to the other strings. Thanks for your video. >:)
