bro i have been playing for years and of course i am here making sure i haven't overlooked some techniques, as we know every little bit helps when it comes to music. you had me hooked when you said "milk every note for what it is worth". any and every musician can learn from that statement.
Eddie THANK YOU! After 5 years of study, review & practice I had memorized the 5 positions of the Pentatonic scale! This lesson has (for me) turned on the light bulb on How to Use the Pentatonic scale to make music! Thank you for truly simplifying the explanation of the scale & demonstrating "how to find & use the scale" in both the major & minor forms 👍🏽👍🏼🥇🎸❗❗
I wish random bs makes no sense I'm more confused than when I knew nothing about guitar I wish there was someone that knew what they were talking about to learn from cous this guy is an idiot
I started playing guitar at 15 yeaes old, but never got to far I gave up. But now you make it so easy that I am learning so fast and now I am 56 years old, and playing like a teen eger Thank so much.
I have started Just a while ago, Just learning and practicing, its a strugle, fingers stiff, arm pain, back cracking, owerall I love it❤️Thank you for helping us.
Hey Eddie this is a perfect for those just entering this stage of the game . Endless possibilities from here . Man I am playing awsome riffs . Learning songs has become very easy . Applying what I've taken in from u guys has made mind blowing results
Great lesson Eddie. The light is starting to come on for me. It's dim, but I'm starting to understand the fretboard more and it's making sense. Thank you for your patience and energetic delivery.
Amazing. I've been doing this quite a while. When faced with learning five different pentatonic shapes I decided there must be an easier way. When you follow this approach you can slide from one pentatonic box to the next and essentially get ANYWHERE on the neck you want to play. One shape for all positions, both major and minor. The boxes fit together like checkers on a checkerboard! Plus, once you are in a particular position you can expand and use the entire pentatonic scale at that position if the musicality needs it. I'm glad to see someone cover this for everyone.
Absolutely a gem of a video ! Funny I applied this approach just a few days ago. Except I started on the 4th string (2nd octave) and played the high strings. All 5 shapes Major and Minor up and down the neck. Keeping my mind (trained) on that. This vid focuses on the backside of the scales. Point is, it's cutting the big honking scales in half. Simplifying a smaller group of notes. This approach easily helps locate the roots. Mini shapes within the big shapes. It's GOLDEN !!! You did a fantastic job !
Great, Ive been a pro guitarist for over 40yrs, but belive me I dont have the patience for neighbours kids to teach them...even that I graduared in Berklee-electric guitar...but you do it so easy, n thank u buddy, I told the kids, listen n follow this guy, dont need me!!!!tnx , breat work n method, warm greetings from Belgrade, Serbia
Took me a while to see the fretboard and its graphic representation are 180 degrees different. Having said that, this is the simplest beginner lesson I've ever seen. My level precisely. I'll practice.
Great clear instruction, thank you. I'm 48 just starting to learn, not musically inclined, so the process is frustrating and difficult at times. Having simple lessons like this is very helpful.
Maaan...you've explained it simpler and better than the others for me. You're actually the 10th one I've come across finding the easy way to learn the pentatonic box with the blues root notes. Subscribed.
Eddie, you're an amazing teacher. Love your lessons and Ultimate Guitar Blueprint. You are the lightbulb. I've been playing for 50 years and you've made me such a better player with just a month of watching your videos. Thanks.
Started "playing" guitar at age 12 back in 1971, played in bar bands from 1978 to 1995, and , yet, I've learned more about guitar in the past 2 years from GMM than I did in all the years before--I am now 63 and , honestly, can now admit it was all guesswork before, meaning I could learn songs but i couldn't "actually" play guitar, like soloing and improvising, and , now I can, and with confidence--only wish GMM had been around 50 years ago , or, at the very least, someone could have just told me instead of me poking around .
You really should have mentioned the little half step bend on the sixth note of each box, major and minor, as it really is an "extra" note. This makes a huge difference to how your solo sounds. Anyway, nice and clear and concise explanation of this essential piece of knowledge.
Just started learning guitar. This is the first video of yours that I've watched. It's like your pouring knowledge into my head. You make it so practically understandable. Thank you for sharing.
Been trying to do this for years, but it never sounded right - and your super easy explanation finally made it click!!! Thank you!!! Awesome! I played for three hours straight yesterday after learning this and sounded awesome.
Dude I’m gaining confidence each time I watch and rewatch. I been in a country / rock band for years for drums and bass. But lead has always felt daunting. But learning at a pace bit by bit. Thanks
Incredible teaching talent!!!....... Simplifying as others cannot....... So few notes were chosen, how cool is that!!... Gonna try though!!.... Gonna be a star!!!...... Sorry, I just remembered, I am 82 years old.......Still and all......""Aint never too old to rock!!!"
It’s very smart to suggest starting with fewer notes in the box. That box to a beginner is scary. Recently I started learning triad inversions. I like that I’m only learning one key at a time on 1 string set at a time. It’s not as overwhelming and you’re so right you can focus more on being creative. Creativity for most keeps learning the guitar, or any instrument fun. Thanks for another great lesson!
Man...I wish I had you as a teacher when I was 13,lol 😆 You're a great teacher, fortunately though, I can do all these things, but I feel like I'd be "smarter" about it if I had taken lessons at the young age I was when I started..I'm 40 now. TONS OF INSPIRATION HERE! THANKS!
@@GuitarMasteryMethod Hey! I found myself here back again! I'm getting a lot better at mixing both major and minor..I've watch tons of videos since, and back to this one and I must say it again! GREAT STUFF! 🤟
I could spend all day just learning from these YT videos from Eddie. Luckily I signed up for the GMM course -- just awesome. Superb instruction, clear, passionate, makes me want to learn more and just keep at it!
This video is GOLD STANDARD. I've gone from sounding hesitant and repetitive to creative and interesting in an instant. Subbed and Liked, thank you looking forward to your unlocking of more wisdom sir.
I think this lesson did open a better understanding to me as a beginner. I do understand your explanation. Very well layed out :) Thanks a lot for your hard work.
Eddie, It would help so much if when you show the pictures of the guitar neck that it is the same as your holding the guitar. The picture just needs to be flipped so we can follow along easier.

Thats what made Prince great. Even making the air in between notes is a note within itself.
This!
@@HumbleAstronaut yes! The magic is in the choice, the emotion created, and the space between notes.
This guy is a fantastic instructor. Basic, uncomplicated and clear explanations in bite-sized chunks! Thanks.
He should consider to enter politic. He will be unstoppable.
He is brilliant, he and Charlie.
No he's an idiot
Glad I understand the difference between major and minor has helped me a lot as a beginner

Awesome, thank you!
Your lessons are always so clear and easy to follow. I was a university prof for 30+ years and you have a good lesson outline.
I have started Just a while ago, Just learning and practicing, its a strugle, fingers stiff, arm pain, back cracking, owerall I love it❤️Thank you for helping us.
You can do it!
Continue on the path, Grasshopper. Love and dedication.
Eddie is a wonderful instructor. I have been here for over 3 years, and I have been able to understand
more than I expected.
Thanks as always Eddie!❤
Appreciate the kind words!

Ditto..awesome comment😁
Ditto!
Same here, I'm really struggling to wrap my head around these concepts of pentatonic scales. ✌️
Your absolutely right David, GMM crew are very good teachers, especially Eddie and Charlie. I'm getting there....slowly.

You're a really good teacher. Haven't seen lessons like this before. So many things I thought were complicated are digestible
AS usual, Eddies lessons are gold for us trying to understand how to navigate the fretboard. Thanks Eddie!
Hi. I'm an enthusiastic guitar player from Brazil and that class was awesome. Thank you for coming up with something helpful.

I have been playing for years and its amazing how much I picked up from your videos. Thanks Eddie!
LIGHTBULB MOMENT! I have been practicing the pentatonic scales alot, but this put it together so well --- and simply. THANKS
Thanks for opening my eyes and ears to this great technique. Keep it coming.
Took me a while to see the fretboard and its graphic representation are 180 degrees different.
Having said that, this is the simplest beginner lesson I've ever seen. My level precisely. I'll practice.

I enjoy these lessons … most of the time they are easy .. explained perfectly. And are fun to mess with !! Thanks
I like the way you’ve explained this. I’ve always played bass or rhythm in the past, now I want to do lead
Best guitar instructions I have seen yet on you tube, when you catch onto the scale its so simple to use and jam with, Many thanks mate.
love the genius in the simplicity of this lesson

this tutorial packs an impressive musical punch for aspiring guitar improvisors...thanks Eddie!

i have watched many videos on this topic and i have to say that this video was the most helpful of them all
Newbie here. Learning how so I can play with my step son. Thank you for your time and effort 👌 🤟💨
Just started learning guitar. This is the first video of yours that I've watched. It's like your pouring knowledge into my head. You make it so practically understandable. Thank you for sharing.
Welcome aboard!

Brilliant tutorial. I now have a reason to use my loop pedal and it worked a treat. Thank you
Thanks Eddie. Great lesson and a little easier comprehension for me, which makes for more fun and desire to practice. Appreciate it sir.
Been trying to do this for years, but it never sounded right - and your super easy explanation finally made it click!!! Thank you!!! Awesome! I played for three hours straight yesterday after learning this and sounded awesome.
This freebie is elusive!!
thNKS for the tip, yeah I was a bit bored with not playing the "tails" and putting my own sound in it!!
I've always played rhythm but was recently asked to come up with licks, and I had no idea how. This helps a lot! Excited to get to work!
Eddie - you make this too easy, 2 for 2 on my score card - 1st was the 4 basic scales and now this...excellent!
Am happy to have a wonderful teacher like u have learned something new.
Bro, Your video's have helped me tremendously improve my guitar playing. thank you and keep on rocking out!
Great teaching, Ed
Dude I’m gaining confidence each time I watch and rewatch. I been in a country / rock band for years for drums and bass. But lead has always felt daunting. But learning at a pace bit by bit. Thanks
Keep up the great work Seth, this is awesome to hear!
No better guitar teacher on the net -- thank you Eddie !
I’ve been doing it like this for 40 years and everyone says I have sweet licks 😆😆😆 It’s the secret sauce and this lesson is super important!
Awesome lesson for beginners who want to level up. You're a great teacher man!
Thanks!
Great video just what i needed
Not sure which was better, the lesson or Eddie’s guitar. Great stuff as usual, thanks Eddie/GMM!
This lesson is apt and recommended for all lead guitarists.
I think this description of how to use the pentatonic scales is the best I have ever seen..I cant wait to get home and put it to use!!
Thanks, glad to hear it!
Breakthrough lesson for me. Thanks Eddie & Rock On!
One of the best guitar lessons I've seen on youtube!
Glad you think so!
Incredible teaching talent!!!....... Simplifying as others cannot....... So few notes were chosen, how cool is that!!...
Gonna try though!!.... Gonna be a star!!!...... Sorry, I just remembered, I am 82 years old.......Still and all......""Aint never too old to rock!!!"
You guys are the gold standard of common sense, helpful, and easy to understand instruction. Thanks!
How is random bs common sense this guy reminds me of Charles mansions blabbering incoherent bs that makes no sense

Great Lesson. Thank you.
Gotta hand it to you. Great lesson. I knew about this but you made it clearer. Now I am off to nail this concept on my playing.
Cheers
Simple. Brilliant.
Great presentation. Showing how to navigate between major and minor is pure gold. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks. This helps me understand where & why I need to go on the neck.
I recently began watching him. Great instructor easy to follow. 😊
Great lesson!
Lightbulb went off !
Thanks!
Very enjoyable lesson. I need to watch more of your lessons. Thank you. Ed
Thank you so much Eddie.
Man...I wish I had you as a teacher when I was 13,lol 😆
You're a great teacher, fortunately though, I can do all these things, but I feel like I'd be "smarter" about it if I had taken lessons at the young age I was when I started..I'm 40 now.
