    Thanks Rusty. What do you feel is the hardest thing to teach someone on guitar?
    God bless you Rusty. Your channel is growing fast.

      Hey Ray, the hardest thing to teach is technique! Bending, vibrato, hammer ons, pull offs and muting!!! Knowing what notes to play is the first step. But playing those notes in a musical way, is what makes you sound advanced! I’ve done a few lessons on this topic, but they haven’t performed very well. But definitely more to come! I really appreciate your support Ray and let’s talk soon.👍

      @@rustysguitar1 Rusty I read the comment you answered here. I subscribed a while ago. But I'm going back to check out the bends vibrato, hammer ons pull offs that you mentioned that may have been back when you were just starting up. I don't know. But I do know I'm at the stage now where something like that would really help me. I could use it. Maybe many of us are at that level now. If you would maybe consider throwing in some wholesome advice about that thanks man. I'm going to check out some of your older content on this topic.

      @@rustysguitar1 what I meant by that is in the Rock world the minor pentatonic is pushed constantly - I personally feel it’s a mistake to start new players out playing the minor pentatonic - Start with major with some very basic theory and your foundation is so much stronger for future growth and understanding of all the options you have particularly when soloing. It took me several years to break out of the minor pentatonic blinders I had from starting with the minor pentatonic

    Hey Rusty. Remember me im the Guinness world record beginning guitarist holder. Im actually in the mid point i would think of intermediate. According to all the research ive done. But anyway. I took forever to get out of the beginner status. I literally had to force myself to move on. I got to comfortable. But im so glad you took the time to teach us i so badly needed these lessons. And it does seem like like every channel is either for beginners or professionals ripping the strings off. Im 54 yo. Slash dont have worry about me taking his job thats for sure. But i do want to get as good as i can within reason. So again thank you.

    Excellent lesson. I listen to songs while driving, or have some time, and do nothing but counting the beat, and listening for what chord is playing. Putting in the hours and hours of listening so that's its more second nature as I try to concentrate on playing lead while having the count and current chord in the back of my head. My favorite way to play lead is in Dorian, all notes. Matches the music I grew up listening to and love. Of course, still being current chord centric while playing in a mode with notes not in Pentatonic.Of course, still play both minor and major Pentatonic while jamming to certain backing tracks or with others. Again, love that Les Paul Custom!

    Dag Nabit, Rusty!! You're making my left fretting hand starting to ache again trying to keep up with all these great lessons!! :>) I love how you keep these bite-sized in length (generally around the ten-minute mark) which keeps these easy to cover in one session but also gives these great concepts time to sink in before continuing too far. You also repeat many important points which is superior for retention but as I've mentioned to you before, all these lessons improve my playing in all aspects (electric including soloing, acoustic and even bass) and give me something new to look forward to weekly and stretches out my confidence on the ole fretboard. Great generous work and even some great general worldly advice and some sprinkled humor (like the popping thumbs up in your face)!! Jim C.

      @@rustysguitar1 The rest of the vid was great too. While I have been "playing to the chord tones" instinctively (by ear) forever, it was only recently that I thought about it in terms of the notes themselves, so I imagine your lesson will be of tremendous value to new and intermediate players. Along that lines, I learned that changing one note (flatting the 7th) in the major scale converts it to the extremely useful Mixolydian mode which is sorta halfway between a major sound and a blues sound. Also moving one note up in the natural minor scale gives you the also excellent and useful Dorian mode. Simple stuff which expands versatility tremendously. Perhaps you could include that stuff in a future lesson? Jst a (hopefully helpful) suggestion. - Jstn

    Great lesson Rusty. When you follow the chords, are you just playing the chord triads? Are you aiming for the 1, 3 or 5 of each chord? Following the chords is still a struggle for me. Don’t really know what notes to hit when not playing the C chord.

    • @rustysguitar1
      @rustysguitar1  Рік тому +1

      It’s not easy! A great way is to see the triad shapes within the scale that you’re using. Even if you don’t know what the notes are. As the cord comes around, you just play that little shape. And then get right back to homebase the C note. If you just sit with a simple, backing track and try to do it over and over till it becomes second nature. But as you know, it doesn’t happen overnight! Thanks for checking out the video Scooby! Have a rockin rest of your day 🤛

      1st time for me seeing it. He's you tube rich now. Buying pretentious axes now. He may or may not let us be seen with him out in public. Check out KDH channel at NAMM CREAM GUITARS if you haven't seen the color changing guitars. Like for real....hit a button and turns from white to black ooh and even black yo white. Simmah.Down Nah ! It's only a prototype but.looking at 6 months production. Base price on the guitars is $1600.00

    How would these tools be if it were a BLUES since I can use a Major Penta and Minor Penta scale and the blue note ???
    Thanks.

    • @rustysguitar1
      @rustysguitar1  Рік тому +2

      Yes! Works very well! Most blues progressions use a seventh or ninth chord. So focusing on the major third and the flat seven of each chord within the pentatonic scale. You are working on the right things! Have a great weekend.😎

    Rusty, around 3:50 you said the same notes in C Maj as C minor. You should correct that. I think you meant A minor.

    Hi Rusty, I really struggle with your chord diagrams, unlike most other teachers, with the high notes at the top and low notes at the bottom, opposite of the guitar... Just saying.. that's all...😢
