I am 65 yrs old started at 60 on guitar watched UA-cam videos you being one of my favorites sometimes I pick up my guitar and surprise my self other times I can’t do much, but I do play everyday at least twice.
@@cliftonjarvis8010 keep it up brother …. Trust me , im 58 , started later in life but got pretty good , especially with acoustic … Rusty’s angle on the caged system and seeing the chord shapes is king ….
Same thing with me Rusty...Your videos along with cage videos really got me together better...Theory wise...but the trick for me was the shapes of my hand and the triads...everything connects if you are in standard tuning...Thanks so much from this 54 yr old half of a player.@rustysguitar1
Thanks Mr. Rusty... I'll be 75 soon after the first of October and I know already what my children are getting me; a new Fender FA-135CR Concert Electric w/Tuner. So I'll be able to play better than the nylon string. I know it's my last guitar, but I'll be able to do what I've always wanted to do until the Lord says it's time. 👍
That’s exciting that you’re getting a new guitar! You’re gonna have fun with that fender. Thanks so much for checking out my lessons. Enjoy your weekend JL.👍
Brilliant lesson Rusty..........ive learned recently the location of all c f and g triads major and minor on all string sets so this is perfect for me...........big thanks Paul from Ireland
63 year old here. I have been trying for years to connect chords together seamlessly. I watched your triad video and this one . A light bulb moment and now I am doing it. Thankyou rusty
That’s exciting when you make those new connections on the fretboard Gary!!! I’m glad my lessons helped! I appreciate your message here. See you soon, bud. 🤛
Rusty, I just wanted to say that I watched this lesson (and have been learning from it) since you posted it a few days, ago, and I think it may be the most important (i.e., useful) online guitar learning tool I have ever encountered, and I am so grateful. I have understood the concepts you talk about for a while, but when I have tried to apply them previously, I have had limited success, but you have a talent for explaining ideas, and showing their practical application, in a way that makes sense to me. Many, many thanks for your generosity in posting these lessons, and for your encouraging manner.
I really appreciate this comment! I’m glad you’re getting something from my lessons. Your comment really motivates me to keep moving forward with my channel. It’s so exciting to make those new connections on the fretboard!!! Thanks again for all your support👍
I’m coming up with names for these shapes. Two frying pans and the BB house. Rusty makes it so simple. I’ve improved so much with you. I barely ever hit a “wrong” note.
Rusty your lessons are so simple and direct. As someone who is in that grey area of very advanced intermediate to low end advanced, I find you to be a real treasure.
13:36 That is the major point... Those things need to be practiced over and over again... Oh well, I will have to get my lazy a** back to practice. Thanks for the great lesson Rusty! Cheers, MArtin
Hey Rusty, I watched and practiced this lesson tonight. I found it to be a really fun lesson that opens up a whole world of play. Basically, you showed me you can take any 3 triad combo and pick its root triad and play its corresponding major and minor pentatonic scale’s over its 3 diatonic progression. In order to improvise musically! I really like your content and will be following you and will be delving into your content in order to learn from you; thanks man!
As you say Rusty ‘lot of information’ but you make it understandable. I’ve only been playing six months but with lessons like this I feel I can get somewhere. Bless you mate
This is great stuff! I'm only 5 minutes into the video and I already have stuff to practice and enjoy. Been playing the saxophone for 50 + years and still play but always wanted to play guitar also. Thanks for a great lesson. I also play your rhythm stuff for hours!
@@rustysguitar1 hey man, personal request here. I'm trying break down a bunch of darrell scott stuff. He's kind of mind boggling, but if you have some simple stuff to head in that direction, I'd love to hear it. Thanks for what you do!
@@rustysguitar1 I play with mainly a pick also. I guess I'm talking about mainly his chord and partial chord voicings. Trying to deciher from videos. Picking up some, but it's slow. Just having fun with it.
Once again the techniques you are clearly and patiently demonstrating are so helpful and delivered is such a humble unassuming manner. Thank you very much.
Hi there Rusty. Yes, a LOT of information there, but even if I only apply some of it which is within my grasp, my understanding and then my playing improves. This also sounds great on my acoustic too. Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for your awesome lesson I really appreciate you taking the time to break down each partial chord and connecting them 🤙🏾 Have a Blessed Day ☝🏾
I think I found my online guitar teacher!! I am getting a lot out of this video. I am busy learning triads but then I came across this! This is putting notes into music. Thank you for posting it!
This is the most eye opening lesson I’ve ever watched. Thank you, Rusty! Been working on this concept with this video as a guide for weeks now. Changed my life.
That was packed full of great stuff. Thanks for the diagrams too. Im just starting to venture out from cowboy chords down the new world of the upper sounds going toward the bridge
Hello Rusty I have just found your site and subscribed I really love what I am seeing I am a 58 year old with Parkinsons trying to learn to play and I love the way that you make it so simple it really helps . I want to thank you for taking time out of your busy day to make this video to helps us out here so thank you from the bottom of my heart you are a very generous and special man that would do this for us thank you again. Oh yeah I Love that Strat I can't remember the name of that bust pattern on it but it's beautiful. If you ever get tired of it send it my way LOL
I’m glad that you found my channel also Darrell!!! Sorry to hear about your health issues 🙏 But I’m happy you’re having fun with your guitar 🎸 And I bought that guitar used, I think it’s called sienna burst. Thank you for subscribing to my channel! Hope to see you soon👍
You have added so much to my knowledge of the guitar, and I enjoy playing so much actually doing pretty good now....when I'm sitting in my studio alone. I really struggled with putting this out there, i dont intend to offend anyone believe me, but what I believe I need more than anything else at this particular point is prayer from those that know it works. When I get in front of people my confidence in what I do know and the slight ability I have seems to melt through the floor. It's like something cuts the connection between my brain and my fingers! It's so frustrating. I have played for 40 years, in front of crowds of several thousand people, but always just rhythm in more of a bluegrass style, surrounded by the other members of the group that stepped up and did the leads and breaks, I was just fine in that setting. But man how i want to step up into the styles you teach and be able to play these things at church where theres no one else to fill the gap. Sorry to ramble on like that but I need a touch in the area of confidence. God bless.
Thanks for sharing! I think a lot of us can relate. For me it took many times of playing out to start getting confidence. I mean confidence in my tone and confidence in my playing ability! I hope you keep working at it because I know you enjoy it! Talk to you soon👍
Loved this lesson, you explain things in such a calm simple way, it’s a joy just to watch listen to you play anyway but even after many years of playing this has really got me playing non stop again and these ideas are such great fun. There’s a big difference between whizzing round the guitar with every non player telling you how well you can play compared to the joy of landing on the right notes at the right time and feeling within yourself that your loving playing. Nice one!
This is exactly how I ALWAYS practice. I pick a progression & play around with it. I don’t know all the notes tho, I just remember the intervals around all the chords. Mainly just the 1 3 5 and 7.. When I started learning double stops connected by 6ths is where I really started to excel cuz it helped me understand how it’s all connected. Anyway, great lesson 👍
That’s a great way to do it! Many players visualize groups of notes around the chords. I appreciate the message here! Thanks a lot for checking out the video Johnny!!!🤛
I bought the guitar used. But I’ve been told that the color is sienna burst. With an ash body. It is a nice looking guitar for sure! And to top it off, it sounds and plays great. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
Another great connect the dots !! … for people like me who look at intervals aa “ math “‘…. C is a great key cause there are no sharps or flats …. Except for the f # in the G chord i believe ? 🤓
Yes - C major is always a Good place to start. There's an F# in the G major scale but not in a G major chord, unless you're playing a G major 7th, which you might not want in the key of C major (not saying you can't though!).
Regarding mixing rhythm and lead - Tony Iommi does that masterfully. I remember learning War Pigs for the first time. The rhythm during the first verse is pretty easy ("Generals gather in their masses.."), during the second verse though he has some pretty tough open string pull offs, but once you feel the groove it's pretty easy.
Hi rusty. Can you tell me how you memorized the fretboard? Like how do you know the names of the notes you play anywhere? Is it pure memorization and if so how did you memorize it?
Hey Dave, most players, including me, did not memorize the fretboard all at once. One of the best ways is to memorize the notes on the low E and A strings then you can locate the root for the scales and chords that you play. Then learn the octave of those notes. And your knowledge will grow from there. Also, by knowing at least some of the notes, all of these UA-cam lessons will make a lot more sense. And you will pick things up more quickly. take some time with us and you will be glad you did! Thanks a lot for checking out my videos and enjoy your Sunday👍
@@rustysguitar1 heyy thanks for replying man. So when you learn the octaves you are just learning the octave Patten and are not actually memorizing the position of the note?
@daveclement9932 I meant the octave note from the low E and A strings. If you play an A note on the 5th fret of the low E string the octave note would be 2 frets up and 2 strings down. And knowing where the root notes are helps you when locating and playing different chords and scales. Keep working at it. It will pay off soon thanks.
G'day Rusty. I do struggle with coordinating my right & left hands when trying to play individual notes. I'm also struggling a bit with note names (although I do understand that a lot of this is learning repeatable patterns). I was thinking of sticking some coloured stickers on some of the notes on the fretboard as a guide? The crazy thing is my son has a music degree (Jazz). He's a bass player, although he's also competent in the keyboard. For whatever reason, he hates guitar & isn't that interested in helping his old man. Maybe I need to take the B & E strings off? 😅 Kindest Regards - Rod
Hey Rod, what helped me was memorizing the notes on the low E and A strings. That way you will know the root note of the chords and scales that you play. Then learn the other notes little by little. Keep rockin Rod👍
When you show us those triads and parts of cords it would be easier to see what fingers you are fretting with. Like you have done in this video. But there are some that are not so easily understood Otherwise I love your lessons and have learned a lot and become a better player because of your lessons. Keep ut the good work I keep waiting for new video’s from you. Thanks from Norway.
Thanks a lot for the feedback! In my more recent videos, I am taking more time and slowing things down. Greetings from Chicago and I hope to see you soon.👍
Hey Philip, no, they are just standard chords. A basic chord contains 3 notes (triad) and as you move up the fretboard the same 3 notes are in a different order. Thanks for checking out the lesson.👍
Lesson is ok but there is some advice that should have been made or logically thought about in context You are doing a 145 progression But if you don't show the extended 7th on a trias or basically next in line of counting in 3s. The F is not major it's is minor related. Reason F is the 4 and is not odd number. Hence the polarity ichanges I'm key of c going up in 5ths the last note before returning to c is F and you lay all other notes of chromatic scale even the tritone comes before the F. Hence you should always use the 4th as a passing tone The 1357 are positive 2468 are negative I have not made a mistake of 8 included as I know logically that the pollatrics change from positive to negative. Each scale and note in any scale can be better positive or negative and always change when going through the diminished 7 th. It is a bit hard to understand but is related to how the system properly works. What I am trying to point out is that F 7th is not E as most will think Rather than E maj min 7 of Eb. This is where most don't think about is the note being played is either positive or negative and I am definitely not going on about minor or major. But the polarity itself A note can be posiitve with maj or min and the same applies to negative . There is no point in trying to show and say it is easy when you don't break down the scale into odd and even. And why not start with this than just going oh 135. Why does nobody in the guitar community on UA-cam go n about the basics of breaking the scale even if it's plain logical. This is why also people get stuck with diminished and augmented when being educated as nobody breaks down what's positive and negative and it's bloody frustrating that not 1 video on UA-cam relates this. All we get is buy our course And inside the course No positive or negative lesson ? Wtf no wonder most get confused just like I did for many years before it came obvious
Another great lesson thanks Rusty - what's your best resource or recommendation for memorizing all the note names on the fretboard? I made some good progress on this lately but still not quite there
Honestly it’s about memorizing the root notes of the chords and scales that you play. Then learning those octaves. Then starting to memorize the notes around the roots. There really is no magic way to learn the notes. Every time you pick up the Guitar, just try to memorize and visualize a little more each day. Nobody does it all at once. Keep working on it. Talk to you soon.👍
Ok This Is Something Every Guitar Player Should know How to Do !!! BUT this All Depends on the Song Your Playing and IF There is Space In Between the Following Next Chord to Fit these Added Fills In " You DO NOT Over Crowd the " LYRICS " of a Song !!! THIS includes ANY INSTRUMENT Which Is Called Your Playing " TOO BUSY " !!! So LYRICS come Before Extra fills , Unless Your Playing Guitar Solos or Playing INSTRUMENTALS !!! .
Hey Scooby, I do have a video coming out in about one hour. I have a lot going on with my family so I haven’t been doing as many videos. I really do appreciate you checking in my brother 👍
I wish I cud talk with you on the phone… I’m missing exactly what your video is about, “making that connection” … I just don’t know what I’m missing… there is something that I’m just not seeing…
In this video, I’m really showing a simple way to play around the chord. To get something from this video, it is important to know the notes on the fretboard, the major pentatonic scale, and a few chord shapes that I described in this video. The chord and scale connect if you know the notes on the fretboard. I hope you keep working on it. Because the connections will start to happen. Thanks for checking out the video and keep rockin!!!😎

I bought the guitar used. But I’ve been told that the color is sienna burst. With an ash body. It is a nice looking guitar for sure! And to top it off, it sounds and plays great. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
@@rustysguitar1 Thanks Rusty! Your lessons are the best on the internet. Thanks for what you do and God bless!
@stratguy46O 👍
Another great connect the dots !! … for people like me who look at intervals aa “ math “‘…. C is a great key cause there are no sharps or flats …. Except for the f # in the G chord i believe ? 🤓
I’m glad that we could connect some dots today! It keeps us motivated. Thanks a lot for the comment and enjoy your weekend.👍
Yes - C major is always a Good place to start. There's an F# in the G major scale but not in a G major chord, unless you're playing a G major 7th, which you might not want in the key of C major (not saying you can't though!).
@@hugh3333 still trying to wrap my head around all the theory ….. im close …. Circle of fifths is prob my next light 💡 on moment…..
@lawncuttingplusdelta 👍
Regarding mixing rhythm and lead - Tony Iommi does that masterfully. I remember learning War Pigs for the first time. The rhythm during the first verse is pretty easy ("Generals gather in their masses.."), during the second verse though he has some pretty tough open string pull offs, but once you feel the groove it's pretty easy.
Oh yes, I love me some Tony Iommi Guitar!!! we played those tunes back in high school! Thanks for checking out the lesson👍

Thanks a lot 👍
Hi rusty. Can you tell me how you memorized the fretboard? Like how do you know the names of the notes you play anywhere? Is it pure memorization and if so how did you memorize it?
Hey Dave, most players, including me, did not memorize the fretboard all at once. One of the best ways is to memorize the notes on the low E and A strings then you can locate the root for the scales and chords that you play. Then learn the octave of those notes. And your knowledge will grow from there. Also, by knowing at least some of the notes, all of these UA-cam lessons will make a lot more sense. And you will pick things up more quickly. take some time with us and you will be glad you did! Thanks a lot for checking out my videos and enjoy your Sunday👍
@@rustysguitar1 heyy thanks for replying man. So when you learn the octaves you are just learning the octave Patten and are not actually memorizing the position of the note?
@daveclement9932 I meant the octave note from the low E and A strings. If you play an A note on the 5th fret of the low E string the octave note would be 2 frets up and 2 strings down. And knowing where the root notes are helps you when locating and playing different chords and scales. Keep working at it. It will pay off soon thanks.
G'day Rusty.
I do struggle with coordinating my right & left hands when trying to play individual notes. I'm also struggling a bit with note names (although I do understand that a lot of this is learning repeatable patterns). I was thinking of sticking some coloured stickers on some of the notes on the fretboard as a guide?
The crazy thing is my son has a music degree (Jazz). He's a bass player, although he's also competent in the keyboard. For whatever reason, he hates guitar & isn't that interested in helping his old man. Maybe I need to take the B & E strings off? 😅
Kindest Regards - Rod
Hey Rod, what helped me was memorizing the notes on the low E and A strings. That way you will know the root note of the chords and scales that you play. Then learn the other notes little by little. Keep rockin Rod👍
Hi rusty . ❤
Thanks for checking out the video John👍
This is outstanding Rusty. Can I get in touch with you privately mate?
Hey Shane, I just use the UA-cam comment section for communication. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
When you show us those triads and parts of cords it would be easier to see what fingers you are fretting with. Like you have done in this video. But there are some that are not so easily understood Otherwise I love your lessons and have learned a lot and become a better player because of your lessons. Keep ut the good work I keep waiting for new video’s from you. Thanks from Norway.
Thanks a lot for the feedback! In my more recent videos, I am taking more time and slowing things down. Greetings from Chicago and I hope to see you soon.👍
are those 'walking up ' triads 7th chords, Rusty ?
sorry to hijack if I am.
Hey Philip, no, they are just standard chords. A basic chord contains 3 notes (triad) and as you move up the fretboard the same 3 notes are in a different order. Thanks for checking out the lesson.👍
Can you show us some stuff in 7 note major scales?
I have done a few in the past but this is a good idea Andrew! I will work on it! Thanks bud 👍
Lesson is ok but there is some advice that should have been made or logically thought about in context
You are doing a 145 progression
But if you don't show the extended 7th on a trias or basically next in line of counting in 3s.
The F is not major it's is minor related.
Reason F is the 4 and is not odd number.
Hence the polarity ichanges
I'm key of c going up in 5ths the last note before returning to c is F and you lay all other notes of chromatic scale even the tritone comes before the F.
Hence you should always use the 4th as a passing tone
The 1357 are positive 2468 are negative
I have not made a mistake of 8 included as I know logically that the pollatrics change from positive to negative.
Each scale and note in any scale can be better positive or negative and always change when going through the diminished 7 th.
It is a bit hard to understand but is related to how the system properly works.
What I am trying to point out is that F 7th is not E as most will think
Rather than E maj min 7 of Eb.
This is where most don't think about is the note being played is either positive or negative and I am definitely not going on about minor or major. But the polarity itself
A note can be posiitve with maj or min and the same applies to negative .
There is no point in trying to show and say it is easy when you don't break down the scale into odd and even.
And why not start with this than just going oh 135.
Why does nobody in the guitar community on UA-cam go n about the basics of breaking the scale even if it's plain logical.
This is why also people get stuck with diminished and augmented when being educated as nobody breaks down what's positive and negative and it's bloody frustrating that not 1 video on UA-cam relates this.
All we get is buy our course
And inside the course
No positive or negative lesson ?
Wtf no wonder most get confused just like I did for many years before it came obvious
There’s a reason why you wouldn’t see teachers using this concept. It’s too complicated.
Another great lesson thanks Rusty - what's your best resource or recommendation for memorizing all the note names on the fretboard? I made some good progress on this lately but still not quite there
Honestly it’s about memorizing the root notes of the chords and scales that you play. Then learning those octaves. Then starting to memorize the notes around the roots. There really is no magic way to learn the notes. Every time you pick up the Guitar, just try to memorize and visualize a little more each day. Nobody does it all at once. Keep working on it. Talk to you soon.👍
@@rustysguitar1thanks man - I am on the path then, will keep on the journey:)
@ 👍
Ok This Is Something Every Guitar Player Should know How to Do !!! BUT this All Depends on the Song Your Playing and IF There is Space In Between the Following Next Chord to Fit these Added Fills In " You DO NOT Over Crowd the " LYRICS " of a Song !!! THIS includes ANY INSTRUMENT Which Is Called Your Playing " TOO BUSY " !!! So LYRICS come Before Extra fills , Unless Your Playing Guitar Solos or Playing INSTRUMENTALS !!! .
It’s just some ideas for improvising over a backing track or with the guys. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
@@rustysguitar1 👍🎶🎸
@alanmartin4780 Thanks bro 😎
Where’s rusty? No new videos
Hey Scooby, I do have a video coming out in about one hour. I have a lot going on with my family so I haven’t been doing as many videos. I really do appreciate you checking in my brother 👍
@@rustysguitar1 thanks Rusty. Hope your family is well .
@scoobydoo4087 😎
I wish I cud talk with you on the phone… I’m missing exactly what your video is about, “making that connection” … I just don’t know what I’m missing… there is something that I’m just not seeing…
In this video, I’m really showing a simple way to play around the chord. To get something from this video, it is important to know the notes on the fretboard, the major pentatonic scale, and a few chord shapes that I described in this video. The chord and scale connect if you know the notes on the fretboard. I hope you keep working on it. Because the connections will start to happen. Thanks for checking out the video and keep rockin!!!😎
Nice.
Thanks a lot Surfside!!! 👍
Great lesson , thank you 😊
I’m really glad you got something from the lesson! I appreciate the comment. Thanks.👍
