Understanding Metal Guitar... The Minor Scale (and why it's important)
If you've been interested in understanding a little bit of guitar theory and particularly how it applies to metal guitar, then this is a great video for you.
Here we'll dive into the very important minor scale. We'll learn to play it in a few positions on the fretboard and listen for the mood and sound quality of the scale.
With just a few simple concepts you can start to write some really cool riffs.

    Good stuff! I've been learning the minor scale and its different modes. I hae the first 5 down sofar. But I'm not really sure how to use them together well. A lot of riffs and solos dont stay in 1 modes location, it will be several put together. so im not sure when to switch strings or positions when I can hit the same not in different places. Could be a good future video idea? Also, I want to get into using the different modes as the base, like Phrygian and Lydian. Nik Nocturnal had a cool video on the different mode sounds, and the Lydian one sounds so amazing. But I cant figture out how to actually get that sound.

    Love the octave concept. Was one of the first things I started to do when writing my own riffs. Forgot about the 4, 5 and 7 on the A string Could have also mentioned going horizontal with the scale diatonically

    I honestly wish videos like this existed when I first started taking theory more seriously. You’re really concise and easy to understand most UA-cam content talks about the basics too quick as if the person trying to learn already understands.

      Really appreciate that 🙏 that was always frustrating to me too early on. I needed to understand things on a simpler level and not everything was always obvious, even the basics. Thanks for the comment!

    Outstanding video. Provided a ton of value with great explanations, and kept the video concise when moving from point to point-especially love the scale over the song/backing track tip! Now, if I had to provide feedback, I feel like the bg music could be lowered a few db’s during the talking head sections. Apart from that, amazing! I see that this was the first video uploaded in quite some time. Keep up with this format in terms of video length and script, and your channel is bound to blow up. Hope to see more content similar to this one, subbed!
