I am learning to play classical guitar. I am 62yrs old. I played for a few years in my teens, then life came along. I have just watched a groundbreaking animated video on right-hand and left-hand techniques by David Galvez. I have realised how you need to be focused constantly on your technique to have any chance of improving quickly. Which I need to do after my heart attack. I constantly watch the video whilst practising technique. I then measure myself once a week against some standard classical guitar pieces by Sor, Tarrega and Bach. The improvement is there. What I am trying to say is that practising, although can be boring, but for me is the way to go!!!
I took a few guitar lessons a long time ago in college and still have my classical guitar and some of the music from way back then somewhere. Learned classical, which I still love to listen to, but haven't played too much. I've learned a lot over the past few years from Rick and other youtubers. Maybe I'll actually be good enough to play well in a band after I retire in the future? lol
@@stuksy4321 Sounds excellent. To just be happy practicing, and playing music already makes life better huh? Have a super duper weekend! Life’s good. ✨
Glad to hear this. Classical is probably the most demanding technique wise, so the advice to practice slow with accuracy is good. Have you considered finding a local teacher to help guide your progress? Be sure you have an instrument that is setup well for your specific needs. That can be a make or break issue for some players. If you can read standard notation reasonably well that will be an enormous boost as well. Good luck! I totally appreciate Rick's channel and all his terrific interviews and informative sessions. I do wish he would do a little more with classical players and classical guitar music though.
I can play a few chords and but pretty much play by ear. I dragged my son to a music store to learn guitar from a pro. Today, he's in his forties and collects guitars and equipment. It's a big part of his life now.
Been learning the drums, and I've been a writer-down for decades, but I have found it incredibly useful to learn practical things like drums and (just starting)to learn guitar chords the same way. I'm ok with book-learning and traditional musical notation. But my colleagues advised me to follow drum covers and I used frog botts to achieve a steady beat. I wouldn't be still drumming using my previous means, I would've given up. Sometimes old ways are the best, but it's you tube and filming my teacher's examples to copy that's got this ol gal through. You have also been an encouragement, Rick on this journey which started last October (2024).
Thank Rick. Very good advice to write stuff down. It’s something I don’t do enough of and need to because now that I’m in my 50’s I can’t remember crap.
That's because you try. There is no try. There is only do or do not. If you really want to learn you'll do it. If you dont, you will not. You really didnt want to and that is why you failed
@@Manthathasspiderlikepowers I don't understand why you say that? It's about motivation and staying that way. When many come upon a roadblock it's easy to just quit. @e4t662 We all learn at different speeds and in different ways. I understand your frustrations, there are many things you can do. There are many aspects of playing guitar, find a different teacher or do a different lesson. This lesson is at what I would say is an advanced intermediate level. One of the keys for me has been learning intervals. I constantly go back and forth between lessons that are difficult and easy.
I have the book and it's great (although quite steep learning curve which is great). I spent a weekend getting up to speed how all the music theory terms relate to each other but I've been playing through.
Currently teaching myself to sing and play acoustic instead of just playing guitar. Having the lyrics hand written out on paper is a big help, it doesn't kill the flow when having to scroll around, squint or manhandle a device. I only look here and there at them to keep me on track and little by little I'm burning the complete lyrics into my noggin while strumming along.
I always found if you write lyrics out, you can get away with reading the first word or two from each line, sometimes every second line. When I used to busk, and I wanted to learn a song fast, I’d only write the first few words of each line or sometimes verse/chorus/bridge, and it would be enough to jog the memory, while still retaining concentration on the guitar. It obviously only works if it’s something you have heard before. You can do it a different way, where you write down the words around where the chords change/with the chords written, and that does both at same time. It also helps to bash the rhyme words there too. If I had all the lyrics written, I would use highlighters on the start of each verse etc to have somewhere for the eyes to target when I’ve looked away. If you want to memorise, and also make it more readable from further away, force yourself to write in CAPITALS.
Like Rick said, writing down what you're working on is really helpful. Most of the stuff i've written down, i never go back and read, but i still remember it because i wrote it down.. Its just helpful to write it down or if possible talk/discuss it with other people.
I keep pen and paper beside the bed. I was getting ideas just before sleep. Mostly lyric nuggets, but my own unique rhythm ideas. Try writing down an idea "da dum da ...lol"
@ agreed - my point is that we need to create multiple neural pathways - groups of memories - in what ever way - singing writing drawing playing moving reading
Tab has been around a looong time. It was pretty strong when I was starting to play in the mid 90s which was the main way I learned was from tab on harmony central and guitar mags
I love ricks channel. Having said that, I learn very little from this. Similar problem with much of his teaching. He says a lot of “I play this, then I play this, then I add this fragment…” AHHHHH! I’m only an intermediate guitar player, but I play piano, know theory, and have been working on guitar for 3-4 years. Just can’t learn this way. A LOT of teachers on UA-cam don’t have the insight to teach A to B to C etc. They start out that way, then can’t help themselves and jump ahead a few levels. I’ll keep working!!
One thought might be learning technique that goes in context of a song "hey, I always wanted to learn that song" then figure out all the techniques of that song. Obviously if it's a jazz standard that might be asking a lot but if it's a rock and roll thing it might be easier and more realistic to learn.
Why does writing work? Because you are processing the data again in a new way - see it say it write it - and you have created far more neurological connections between the data sets. Play it after you have written it - more pathways etc.
Greetings Rick I appreciate this installment and I just want to say I purchased your bundle and I am currently going through the beginner guitar course. Should I go into the Arpeggio Masterclass first and then top it off with quick lessons pro? When should I go Beato Book?
5:15 What did you do there? You played the chord on the PIANO first and translated it to the guitar. I took piano lessons for years before I got my first guitar. I never took lessons for guitar and can’t translate sheet music to it but for me, learning the piano first was fundamental for learning the guitar.
In a songwriting project with my best friend, ex-guitar teacher and he never taught me about muting. He bought a bunch of guitars for me to play in his recording studio so I'm going to tell him it's his fault if I play wrong ;-)
@Rick Beato Call me crazy.....but if you reverse your video like you're playing lefty. It really is easy to mirror your fretboard when playing along. Imo, or maybe I'm just crazy. Keep up the great content!!
I can’t roll or smoothly move my left hand fingers like that. Man, I might have some nerve damage. It sucks because I’m right handed. I can do it with my right hand, not my left. I’m thinking it might be the reason I get frustrated trying to learn some chord shapes. Damn. I thought maybe it was just hand-eye coordination.
PAD went from way too loud to too loud after Tom asked you to turn it down. Two ways to relieve the students ears in this case. 1. Use a long decay to a lower sustain level on the amp envelope. 2. Reduce the resosonance frequency &/or level on the VCF. 3. Use a square wave instead of a saw. 4. Saturate the pad in reverb and turn it down 5. Be sure compression isnt too aggressive and fighting efforts to relieve listeners sound pressure experience as the pad persists. Lesson is a bit hard to follow for instant memorization. I think you have three videos here: cord extensions, imply, all of the odd numbers below the stated extension, substitute cord, names, and using/cord instead of cord extensions, and then one on dominant or Pio practice and application. And that’s just in the first 12 1/2 minutes. Like I tell my students, if you weren’t already great, I wouldn’t pick on you! I appreciate your teaching and your interviews so much.
Couple of more interview suggestions......I know you've said you have long tried to get Pagey, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton.....hope you are still trying. But....how about some great composers/keyboard artists.....before they leave us.......the great David Grusin of Hollywood fame, Jeff Lorber, Bob James.....just incredible composers and players if you know of them....they are more of the contemporary or smooth jazz genre. On guitar, what about Steve Howe of Yes, perhaps Trevor Rabin of 90125 Yes - Owner of a Lonely Heart? What about the wonderful guitar player who's been the hidden soloist and lead player for Steely Dan for like 25 years and 25 tours or more, Jon Herington? I'd also get a kick out of your interviewing the female duo who played with Prince for several years......Lisa Coleman and Wendy Melvoin.....trust you understand why.....not only was Wendy one of the first gals in rock guitar.......okay Ann Wilson of Heart was there too....but you know what I mean. And Wendy played for Prince....she also was one of the first female funk guitar players. Have a good weekend, Rick. Bravo on your fine entertainment and historical musical content......
Something that you're doing but you haven't mentioned yet is learning in different patterns. Meaning say you're playing triads. Play 1 3 5 3 5 1 5 1 3 1 3 5 etc. Scales playing 12342345345645675671 or in thirds or 1232343454565671 always going up and back down.
In 2021, Gibson previewed a Rick Beato signature Les Paul Special Double Cut guitar. It comes in a special TV Blue Mist finish with P-90 pickups and Beato's signature on the truss rod cover. In 2023, a second collaboration of the model was made in a Sparkling Burgundy finish.
Isn’t there kind of a brilliance in finding and playing a C7, using it properly in a progression, and never knowing what the chord is called? Idk Curt Kobain never liked arpeggios 😂
Rick could you do a fretboard crash course for us bass players. I play by ear, can't read a note and have trouble playing along with tabs. Learning the fretboard better would be great.
Have you tried using the tabs on Ultimate Guitar? I'm assuming that your problem with tabs might be understanding the tempo, the note durations, time signatures, or something similar. A lot of the tabs on Ultimate Guitar have the option to hear the song while the tab scrolls in real time. Try their app.
Ill never forget the scene in Fargo where Billy shoots Steve Buscemi in the face... Edit... talk about disjointed..this was a comment for Billy Corgan and his on going feud with a lifeless Kurt Cobain sorry continue on peoples in your quest for perfection in an lmperfect world..soldier on Rick
Exactly. I know Rick knows his music but he does videos like this of him doing scales, arpeggios, etc. for a half hour, but does a poor job of explaining why it’s important. So I’ve practiced these in the past, but I don’t fully understand the purpose.
Honest question. Stay with me. 🙏 Do you know the notes on the fretboard? If I asked you to show me all the “A” notes could you find them instantly without searching?
@@jmwise80 I do not know all the notes on the fretboard. Not even close. I believe Rick mentioned early in the video that these exercises would help a player learn the notes, but honestly, as I watch him whip out one arpeggio after another I still cannot make the connection. It seems to me the best way to learn all the notes on a fretboard is to literally map out a fretboard on a piece of paper, label the notes, and try and memorize them. I honestly cannot make the connection between arpeggios and knowing all the notes. For reference, I have been playing only about a year and am frustrated. I bought Rick’s bundle, but for a beginner course I find he breezes through things without explaining them at a beginner’s level. I think I need to be a near intermediate player in order to take his beginner course.
@@larrysmith5249 What kind of music do you listen to? Do you play along with it now with tabs and/or cowboy chords? I’m goin somewhere I promise. Just trying to figure out where you’re at in your playing. I want to get you and the original commenter on your way to getting this stuff.
@larrysmith5249 I found arpeggios fairly useless until I learned to see chord shapes/ caged, overlaid with pentatonic/blues scales And diatonic scales/ intervals Arrpegios are all part of that same big patterns. On their own they are landing spots chord tones. Warning Some study & homework is involved😢
too many "guitarist" focus on the eye candy guitar, the one he is playing or any other nice guitar. FOCUS on the lesson Rick could play like this on a 100 guitar and an ugly one at that. LOL

Tabs came out in the 80's. You and I and John were learning from the sons of Dick Longale at Rizzo music. The best of the best!!!
"Crash Course"....what a perfect series for 2025. If the first month of this year hasn't been that, I don't know what has. Keep bringing it Rick!
Thinking the same
Rick, you look great! The ole ticker is all better!
Thank you for doing what you do.

Just realised that C9 chord is played on Mythbusters after Jamie & Adam bust a myth!! Same guitar tone and everything - my mind is blown!!
Best show ever
you'll here other songs too!
Love those runs over those chords ... It's like early prog rock
Writing it down works in all areas that you want to improve quickly. Rick is 100% right about this. If it's on paper, you cannot forget it.

I tried and tried and tried but the ability to play this instrument effectively, continuously eluded me. Piano, no problem.
It's all laid out in front of you in sequence, so the patterns and shapes just stick. The fretboard is a different animal
That's because you try. There is no try. There is only do or do not. If you really want to learn you'll do it. If you dont, you will not. You really didnt want to and that is why you failed

Yes the writing is not really for going back - it’s for reinforcing the information. We need to re-teach the purpose of note taking
I keep pen and paper beside the bed. I was getting ideas just before sleep. Mostly lyric nuggets, but my own unique rhythm ideas. Try writing down an idea "da dum da ...lol"
I often go shopping and leave my written list behind but usually get nearly if not all that was on it so it must work.

It must be very rewarding to pass on your love for music to your kids. Parenting, you're doing it right :)

Rick can you do a lesson on how you would approach learning jazz ? Would you approach it the same way or would you pair it with learning standards?
He did a video on jazz for rockers some years ago I found helpful, he covered drop 2 and drop 3 voicings if I remember corrrect.
Arpeggios are tough. I play piano and id like to learn guitar too. But arpeggios are universal. I'd like to get better at it
In a songwriting project with my best friend, ex-guitar teacher and he never taught me about muting. He bought a bunch of guitars for me to play in his recording studio so I'm going to tell him it's his fault if I play wrong ;-)

I agree. Hope you're okay Rick. You look like you're losing weight in your face. Stay well ❤

@Rick Beato Call me crazy.....but if you reverse your video like you're playing lefty. It really is easy to mirror your fretboard when playing along. Imo, or maybe I'm just crazy. Keep up the great content!!
I heard Satch mention singing the notes of a specific key/mode you're incorporating in your sound. Difficult without a guitar in your hands.
Rick’s gonna put Berklee out of business. I’m okay with that.
Plus the fun thing about writing notes is you find them 30 years later and time travel back to when you wrote them 😂
Rick! Curious to know what amp you use for these tutorials and shorts?
For this video you owe us about 25 Like Thats.
Are you string skipping or doing 1 note per string? It's crazy!
I bought your course 2 years ago and totally forgot about it.Daily 2 hours and discipline maybe?!

I'm curious to know why did you pick the key of c
aligns with ppl who play keyboard.
The key of C has no sharps or flats, so it is all white keys. It makes it easier to demonstrate things on keyboard.
Isn’t there kind of a brilliance in finding and playing a C7, using it properly in a progression, and never knowing what the chord is called? Idk Curt Kobain never liked arpeggios 😂
Rick, the music drowns out the notes so I can't hear what being played.

A pencil?
Huh?
What’s that?
Hello Rick great video as always . but find the distortion a bit to much could we hear a more clean mellow sound with the same content thank you
Great, but what do I use it for?
Exactly. I know Rick knows his music but he does videos like this of him doing scales, arpeggios, etc. for a half hour, but does a poor job of explaining why it’s important. So I’ve practiced these in the past, but I don’t fully understand the purpose.
Honest question. Stay with me. 🙏 Do you know the notes on the fretboard?
If I asked you to show me all the “A” notes could you find them instantly without searching?
@@jmwise80 I do not know all the notes on the fretboard. Not even close. I believe Rick mentioned early in the video that these exercises would help a player learn the notes, but honestly, as I watch him whip out one arpeggio after another I still cannot make the connection. It seems to me the best way to learn all the notes on a fretboard is to literally map out a fretboard on a piece of paper, label the notes, and try and memorize them. I honestly cannot make the connection between arpeggios and knowing all the notes. For reference, I have been playing only about a year and am frustrated. I bought Rick’s bundle, but for a beginner course I find he breezes through things without explaining them at a beginner’s level. I think I need to be a near intermediate player in order to take his beginner course.

What kind of music do you listen to?
Do you play along with it now with tabs and/or cowboy chords?
I’m goin somewhere I promise. Just trying to figure out where you’re at in your playing. I want to get you and the original commenter on your way to getting this stuff.
@larrysmith5249
I found arpeggios fairly useless until I learned to see chord shapes/ caged,
overlaid with pentatonic/blues scales
And diatonic scales/ intervals
Arrpegios are all part of that same big patterns.
On their own they are landing spots chord tones.
Warning Some study & homework is involved😢
little bit like holdsworth around 18 minutes.
The strings should face outward. Follow me, for more essential guitar tips.
Better title, didn't click on the first iteration!
Too bad that your guitar is buried in teh keyboard hold
Rick is right again. I live for a blank manuscript paper and a pencil.
too many "guitarist" focus on the eye candy guitar, the one he is playing or any other nice guitar. FOCUS on the lesson Rick could play like this on a 100 guitar and an ugly one at that. LOL
Yes, please turn down the synth a tad
You learned before there were books? How old are you goddammit?!😂
Rick's notes have been discovered on a cave wall in northern Spain.
That was a killer
