    Seth you are such great teacher and player ! This lesson is pure Gold! I have a question, when you are playing over each measure on each chord , how do you always know how many notes to play over each chord .. are you thinking subdivisions or just a phrase for each beat ..? It’s Tough to hear the chord changes going by , I lose track .

    • @sethlojo
      @sethlojo 2 години тому

      @@satchrules101 thanks so much for the kind words! I don't think about the number of notes or subdivisions when I'm playing. I'm just staying aware of the chords as they come up and how much time I get to acknowledge them. The best way to get better at this is by playing only the chords for several choruses. Also, try soloing for 2 bars, then comping for 2 bars, and alternate like that through several choruses. Hope that helps!

    Hi Seth, thanks for the lessons. I’ve spent most of my time on the instrument focusing on technique and sort of skipped deep diving into these topics. Your videos are helping me to navigate the process, and they’re fun too! I realized that I’ve been using most of these, but never quite made the connection between all of them (love how you give us progressions to practice!). I have one question - I’ve always focused only on intervals, not really on specific notes on the fretboard. Do you feel it’s important to know all the notes on the fretboard? Thanks again, cheers!🫶

      Hi David, thanks for the comment. I'm very happy to hear that the lessons are helping you. I think that learning the names and locations of all the notes on the guitar is very important. It's like knowing the alphabet. Sure, you can talk without knowing the alphabet, but you'll be very limited in communication.

    Two questions if allowed: 1. Will this concept be workable over a simple Gmaj chord? 2. If the chord being played is Dominant 7th then can we use mixolydian scale and it's chords for determining and playing upper structure chords? Will this work in blues and rock.

    • @sethlojo
      @sethlojo 12 днів тому

      Thanks for the question! First, yes this concept can be applied to a simple G chord, however, depending on the style of music, it may not sound stylistically appropriate. I don't think anyone will throw tomatoes at you for trying it out in blues and rock. To your second question, yes you can do the same process with the dominant, but mixolydian is only one of many scales that contain a dominant chord. For example, you could also use the dominant modes from melodic minor(4th, 5th, and 7th modes), harmonic minor (5th and 7th modes), or harmonic major (5th mode). Hope that helps.
