You have a thing or two to teach other UA-camrs. You're straight to the point and don't complicate any of it. Keep it up, you clearly have a gift. Not only to play guitar but to teach!
SVTCobraman Well said! Amazing and inspiring!
Christ, 10 mins of this video and I've learnt more about music theory than any other "professional" guitar teach has ever taught me! Thanks!
True that
Defo right there
only because it is a hot chick teaching hahah
@@AndrewTheTransformer he’s trying to get some brownie points is t he?..lol
That's rearranging the scales to make them more like shapes. This won't save you from Jazz theory in any case mate! 😂
Probably the best lesson I've seen in my 20+ years playing...
Simp
She's still not gonna give you her phone number ;-) ha ha Just kidding. You're right - amazing instruction there!
*You need to be born with this talent. After 10 ten years of lessons as a kid I could never get it. Picking every note was like pulling teeth for me. I did know numbers and made millions in the stock market. We all need to stick to the skills we are born with, we are all different.*
I've been playing for about a decade and everytime I tried learning music theory and solo playing I got very confused and overwhelmed. I actually found this informative and easily digestible. More lessons please 🙏
50 years from now, some kid will be able to boast that they have the coolest grandma ever!! And that will be an understatement!!
Haha awesome comment for sure! Starting off with a super wife, mother and gramma :)
I wonder who the granddad would be.
@@Malc664 me
or if she knows what's good for her, she'll avoid having kids lol
amazing, I don't need to play, it's amazing just watch you play
This lady changed some of my perspective for real, Thank ya
"When the student is ready, the teacher will appear" Tao Te Ching. Thanks for a great lesson. Your teaching style and skill will help get me to the next level!
Finally I get this 3 notes per string thing. Thanks for the lesson. And yes, I need more now, especially on using the modal scales
One of the best ever lessons....it was clear and to the point. Fantastic lesson.
5.32-5.36 represents hundreds (probably thousands) of hours practice. So bear in mind newbies, it only looks easy because it’s been practiced many, many times, slowly, over years. Anyone can play this well if they’re prepared to put in the effort. Unfortunately we won’t all end up being articulate, attractive blondes. BUT, we can all become better guitarists if we’re patient and diligent. This lady displays such dedication with perfect technique and a great teaching style. Wonderful job, thank you.
*Sits down for first day of class*
3 minutes into video:
*stands up*
“I think I’m in the wrong class.”
I completely understand
LOL LOL LOL but you gotta stay something will rub off sooner or later!
?????
I hope you were holding a hat in front of your crotch when you stood up
Everybody starts off slow don't be scared
Yes more lessons you’re so good thanks for sharing your time with all of us Sophie👍🏻❤️🇬🇧🇺🇸
I just want to say Thank you. You are so kind and thoughtful. Sharing knowledge, technique of YOUR style, posture and love of music.
I have watched 100's of videos on modes and you just explained it in less than 5 min in a way that was super easy to get. Great video.
It's rather astonishing being a decent guitarist and then realizing I look like a beginner compared to your talent. Something to strive for! Holy smokes!
Ive played for years and im not this good either
Yeah. After this I feel like a novice. And all the while my eyes were fixated on the fretboard.
It’s all learning the right way! Like from start learning how it sounds to get the sound! Without thinking from learning this
Thank you very much Sophie ! Your lesson is great and you're amazing.. the way you present the tutorial is too good ..love it ! Please continue your great work.
I went through the comments and I really dig the fact that there are so many respectful people in here who didn't just stop at your physical beauty and focused on what your inner being is expressing
I'm all about her "inner being" being me. (It's a joke, don't get your knickers twisted)
What a great and inspiring musician, love your shred covers! Keep on doing what you’re doing
You showed up totally randomly in my feeds and i'm glad i clicked. This is a very well explained use of the modal system, provided the fact that some of ur viewers (not all of them apparently) have already experienced or dived a bit into modes. There are tonnes of videos out there explaining modes that are confusing (Gambale included). The only one that enlightened me and got me started was a video from Rob Chapmann. I'd be for a videos explaining modes your own way or give a first step to experience it , just so people start to understand that the "minor" scale is not a different scale, just a major scale with a different chord progression and starting point. Anyway, that's how i see it today. I'm sure u'd do a great job explaining it your own way. Keep up the good work this channel deserves to get bigger.
Thanks for this video Sophie, I'm sending it straight to my daughter. She's 15 and just started learning last month. She has three passions. Heavy metal, makeup, and clothes, possibly in that order, so I guess you will be really inspirational for her! The stuff on modal scales would be a bit advanced for her but the first half on three notes per string is great advice, as she's learning the typical "box" method now. She'll take advice from you so much more than from me, so hopefully she'll become a dedicated follower of your channel and learn lots from you. Cheers!
I learned a lot from this. The main being how much I suck😩
lol
Hahaha!
@Kizzy C not everyone needs a band to sound amazing. 🤡
Just remember this...all great players to the noob had to start somewhere in thier journey man. Just take it one step at a time man.
@@MrNinjastab are you able to play fast? I wonder If I will be able to play like 120 bpm 4 notes/beat, because my fingers até too slow, 70 bpm os my limit right now. Training everyday, maybe in one year I'll be faster.
Holy crap, there was a ton of great info in this video! And not just on 3 notes per string. Subscribed. Great job!!!
I literally have no clue as to what you’re talking about I just love listening to you talk. 😬
This was really great! I think it will be really fun to practice this, it made so much more sense to me than any way I've tried to teach myself. Thank you! You rock!
Thank you, I'd like to see more lessons - that was beyond my current level, but I am motivated to pick the guitar up more regularly again and then come back and watch again when it isn't. I understood the theory as you explained it and would certainly watch more of this type of content thanks.
Keep it simple, Excellent presentation, highly appreciated.
Imagine someone trying to impress her by playing wonderwall on acoustic
Wilson23 lmao
LMAO!
Or Smoke on the Water
Wilson23 lol !
There is alot more to music than 64th notes my friend, and alot to be said for having the ability to actually sing, and play well simultaneously. A good musician could tug on your heart strings with a simple melody on a toy guitar with a heartfelt vocal. I got some great advice from one of the greats when I was a kid. I could play lightning fast, and thought that was the ultimate. The advice he gave me was "There's more soul and feeling in a single bend played from your heart than there is in 64th notes played from your mind".
Great lesson, very informative and easy to understand. I would love to see more instructional videos about three notes per string and modal playing. Thank you 🎸🎸🎸
This is brilliant, and very digestible teaching. Thank you Sophie. Reminds me of all the years I spent studying 1:1 with Tony McAlpine before he moved to Cali and became a super-star. You have my attention, and am glad I found your channel. Cheers to you! Great work you have going, here!
Nice lesson. Great stuff. From your solos, you have a really nice melodic sense to go along with the shredding (which we all of course love).
Hey sophie! Thanks for the lesson, I've been playing guitar for 20 years and this was good i apretiate it! I think you should do more lesson videos for sure!
I LOVED THIS LESSON! YES WOULD LOVE MORE LIKE IT!! thank you so much!
This is impressive. Sophie you inject a lot of feeling into your playing, even if it’s just scales. This is simply remarkable. Music is not about speed but about communicating emotion through playing an instrument. You got that part down. Keep on going. Wow.
Cool video n nice guitar.She can make a hot blonde band.This chick rocks
Sophie, it was extremely kind of you to post this lesson. Thank you for all of your outstanding videos.
Teaching is its own skill and you have it! More teaching videos please!
Great Vid Sophie. Great for those at an Intermediate level who have started playing with scales and want to get from there to the end game of learning to solo with them. In relation to your comment, yes I would love to see a modal video lesson. Would love to see how you use this soloing.
To others in the comments, don't let it scare you. practice the scale as she covers in the first couple of minutes, over and over, and as you get comfortable with it, you'll gain more speed and more confidence. Getting from the beginning to Sophie s skill level is not a 2 hour quest on how to learn guitar, it takes dedication and practice for a couple of years. But a little patience and you'll get there.
Keep it up Sophie!, great vid!
Great lesson! More please!!!
A perfect example of less is more! So expressive with just the major scale. Short video,big lesson for me.🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, I wanted a starting point for learning 3nps patterns; now I got something new to practice. Stay safe.
1st off, cool video, I enjoyed it
2nd, gorgeous guitar, I love the burst colors, and the unique dots on the fretboard.
3rd, I love the skull and mini guitar on your AMP head.
4th, Very cool of you to make such a useful speed increasing video free of charge, not too many channels willing to do that.
5th, I'm now subbed, look forward to watching more. \m/
MORE LESSONS PLEASE YOU ARE AMAZING !!! THANKS
Sophie, you combine musicality, guitars playing art and beauty. There is everything for a musical success.
The picking patterns were the lightbulb for me - combined with a few key position shifts. Great info - thank you Sophie!
Thats really well explained and incredible playing!
The "shut up/boobs" line at the end nearly killed me 👍🙂
More women like that would be great. I didnt expect that hahaha
An excellent example of reverse psychology
She is supremely cool. A unicorn 🦄
Didnt expect lol
That was a super helpful video! You packed a ton of info in there. Thx!
Sophie,
Thanks for the lesson and thanks for presenting simply! You are inspiring!
That’s a beautiful guitar. Like a piece of art.
I love your guitar and how you play 👌
Hi Sophie. WOW!!! You ROCK!!! Thank you Very much for sharing your 3 notes per strings approach.
The way you turn the sequence into a full 24 Triplets instead of 18 is Genus, yet such a simple approach. No more gaps in my loops.
Thanks!!!!
Just came across this and grabbed my guitar, but you being tuned down a half-step did stump me. So I got the additional benefit of a transposing exercise. Good work, keep it up!
hey this lesson was really easy to follow along! thanks for the 3nps exercises as well - appreciated the string skip and picking variations! please keep doing more as you're really great at breaking things down :)
would love to also see a close up of how you hold your pick to get the maximum speed. and also how your pick moves between the strings (do you slant it? and how much pick do you use when you do it?)
I feel like I just learned a lot more in this short vid than I ever did with hours upon hours of practice on my own, even the mode section made A LOT of sense and it doesn't even sound hard anymore, thank you for this ❤
agree, think I gotta play it back in slo mo
Finally a taste of modal theory that made sense to me. Thank you for the great video. Beautiful guitar too!
You rule! That was a very eye opening video. I’ve never heard modes, string skipping, 3 notes per string explain so simply!!
I learned something. That's a good thing. Teach us more
I'm a beginner who's practicing due to quarantine, I'd appreciate a video on how to take a scale and work it down the fretboard. I've been working off of these scales. Good video!
E minor pentatonic scale
C major
G major
E harmonic minor scale (sounds so nice)
WOW - you know sooooo much about music theory. I can't even understand what you just said let alone learning how to play that. You are amazing. RESPECT for all your hard work, you can really walk the talk.
Wow I use to play in a band for years and you have taught me I know pretty much nothing. Your music knowledge, skill and speed with all fingers is breathtaking! Please keep lessons flowing, it would be good to know high level how to structure our Learning/practice to get to this level
Ahh the lesson ive been searching with begineer explanation so i can understand easily.
Keep up the good lesson!!
Thank you so much
Steve Howe from Yes made this technique his signature sound. You can hear how this sounds like on any of Yes' 70's records.
Always enjoy your video lessons. I struggle with speed yet, but practice every day with my metronome to get a little better. I love how you are always smiling when you play. Reminds me of EVH. Keep up the great work and look forward to more!
I feel like I just had my third eye opened watching this. You're doing God's work.
I see someone actually made you stay on your music theory, in which my dad really tried encouraging me to stay on. Should have listened to Dad!
all of us that had great dads should of listened more.
the examples for different excersices for the scale you offered were good but the part where you were explaining how to use the scale in a modal context was really really great. It was explained simply so it would make sense for even musicians who are not too familiar with music theory and there was just no unnecessary digressing or over complification. That part was one of the best short guitar tutorials I've seen so far. kudos
Actually I think this is a great example of how good you can play in just one mode.
One of the best...or should I say two. Seriously among the best lessons I've ever had the good fortune to see.
Sophie's lessons 'shred'!!!...they're just the right approach! Thanks for the triplet tricks and hammer on/offs, and modes. Thanks a bunch!
(Happy, Happy!)
Yes please a full lesson on modal playing will be great. Thanks Sophie.
Great lesson Sophie! I will indeed apply what I learned here since I've been working on my scales and theory! And btw, daam, I want that guitar so bad, such a beautiful guitar
@@trisin I think it is an Aries series guitar from Kiesel. Sophie endorses it ☺️
Thanks for your perspective young lady. Keep rockin
Great video.
I've always played this scale this way; never thought to skip strings like that.
I'll give it a try.
I've been playing for 32 years, you are way better than I am.
I think of all the education that I missed. But then my homework was never quite like this
Thank you for this, I was thinking this but couldn't put it together lol.
i dont feel tardy
I got it bad, got it bad, got it bad
Brilliant😃
Hey man what do u think the teachers gonna look like this year?
Can you maybe make a video on breaking down your thought process if you were gonna improvise let’s say over any key (let’s say Bm). How you would implement pentatonic, natural minor, harmonic minor (if applicable), triads. And how you actually go about changing your playing when there’s a chord change. Thanks your videos are awesome!
Great lesson Sophie! You have amazing fluidity on the fretboard and you're great at conveying information.
Super helpful! Been a “box player” for 30 years, thinking about three notes per string in a new light after this!! Thanks, Sophie!
The Ingwie Malmstein school of shredding: "Do dis" , "Now do dis faster".
Could we get topics like your thoughts on different tunings and your guitar collections, please?
Thanks!
WOW
Sophie, you are an absolutely amazing guitar player 👍🤘.
You have an amazing talent.
Thank you for the wonderful videos.
You've inspired me to continue to try to learn to play my guitar.
ROCK ON 🤘🤘👍👍❤🎸
Fantastic video, thanks ! Im always inspired by your playing 🎸👍🏆.
I took music theory in high school, been playing guitar for 40 years, and still ain't even close to being as good as this lady!
‘Coz you keep watching the birds and not practicing 😂. Don’t worry you’re not alone!!!
Sophie - Music theory and humor combined. Now, that's almost as amazing as your guitar skills. Thanks for the technique on the fast runs. I must admit that probably half of the view count on the Living on a Prayer shred is probably due to me having it on loop; it is fantastic! ;-)
For anyone new to guitar or just refreshing their licks, your tutorial style is second to none. All the best from some old muso.
omg wow!!! Thank you so much . This was very helpful. Will try these. please post more
i love how it started simple and got gradually more complicated. Something for people of all skill levels. I'll hopefully come back when I can actually understand the later parts.
Sophie: Ok here's an example solo.
Me: Cool can't wait to see how she uses the scale.
Sophie: Plays 741 notes in 3 seconds.
Ahhhh yeah that makes sense now. (Great video tho keep it up)
LOVE EDWARD 😇🙏💛💛🤟🧚♀️🧚♀️😍💕🧡🧡🥰💖💖💜💜👍💞✌💚😘😘🤨❤🤗LOVE EDWARD KIRK LOVE 💋💋💋
@@leedemkiw6085 I mean maybe if you're really good yourself or top tier. But to intermediate and below I'd say she's insane.
I feel you.
@@leedemkiw6085 I didn't realize every single person below that standard that you created is officially intermediate. Get off your high horse dude she is not intermediate.
You guys should learn to ignore the arrogant and degenerative remarks. Makes your live so much better. Snobbiness doesn’t harm anyone if you don’t pay the attention the other one craves.
Thanks Sophie. A door opened when I suddenly realised mixing major and minor pentatonics together was not only allowed but unlocked fretboard freedom. I know a bit about 3 notes per string and know a bit about modes but you just opened up so much more! Pity I only just found this at the end of lockdown ...grrrr!
Oh yeah, more on modes please!
Awesome lesson! Please... Keep them coming!!!!
Sophie: "but sometimes playing in just a major scale can sound a little boring"
Also Sophie *shredding the crap out of that guitar*
me who just recently learned smoke on the water: ill just go back to guitar hero
9:05 - Lol, great sense of humour
her saying so made my day lol
That was great lol.
She's very aware of her presence haha
I just discovered her and love her to pieces. She is fantastically talented, beautiful and hilarious. Rock On!
That was a superb lesson!
That was actually helpful. I tried combining the 3 notes per string with the pentatonic of the relative minor and it worked great! Thank you!
Yes, give us a lesson on modal playing.
Best sign-off ever (at 9:06): “Or tell me to shut up, and comment on my boobs” 😂😂
So obvious and simple - it makes so much sense. I am guilty of the other boring scale. Great lesson!
Thanks Babe! Trying that scale tomorrow; and I love the lessons because I love to hear your English as much as I love hearing your playing!
Then moment she said she is looking at me, I got nervous LMAO.
EPIC WORK THO.
Could you jump up and down when you play?
Awesome lesson. Really clear and concise explanations and your "examples" were inspiring. 👊
Sophie, you are extremely talented and more importantly for this context a great teacher! Very well done. Keep it going!
