      I agree. I am a relative rookie,about a year of playing and instruction,and these things are beyond my level but I figure that if I can improve my knowledge by understanding 5 or 10 percent after watching its a big plus. Then when I rewatch I can learn a bit more each time. Not everybody views this type of content this way though.

      @@skintslots ^This is the way to do it. Practice your intervals, your chords, and your fretboard memorization. Whenever you're tired with guitar, switch to ear training, and your playing will get better significantly faster. I suggest an app called Perfect Ear for your ear training. It's free, and has numerous intervals for you to start memorizing. One day and a time, and you'll be good bud 👍🏾

    I was literally stuck in my guitar journey. I know chords and scales and how they intertwine, but when I improv, I am either playing scale or chord exclusively. I wanted a way to have seamless transitions between the two modes of playing... and thank heavens, this video popped up on my youtube :)

Recently I've been trying to understand chord melody and wasn't going anywhere but after this video I finally feel like I have something that I can start on!!!! I just want to finish this by saying I'm extremely grateful for the lessons you put out. They've been the backbone of learning things since I started playing, and I wouldn't know as much as I do now without them. Thank you for helping ignite a burning passion for playing the guitar, and for helping me really learn how to express my self and my feelings. I appreciate every single thing that you do for your videos. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
