- This Idea Will Transform Your Guitar Playing!
Eyup Fretheads! Every Wednesday for the next 10 weeks I'll be teaching live guitar lessons from my book. I hope you tune up and turn up. It'll be great to see you :)
Don't be dufus. this is a livestream recording. there is waffle. Be nice or be banned. It's a long lesson but worth it.
Hi Ricky. I missed the live feed but watching now. Isn’t it a strange world when certain individuals think they can insult and complain about the free lessons that Instructors provide here? Seems to me that there are a lot of people in this world who are completed Fu***d in the head!
Anyway, thanks. Off to watch 😊
I for one , LOVE your waffling as well as your excellent teaching !
You're awesome ignore haters
At some point in this lesson everyone will get left in the dust - at a different point for everybody. What everyone needs to understand is that this lesson went from absolute beginner to very advanced on a rocketship. Take away what you can for the moment, come back for more when you are ready. Like he said - "this is a massive brain dump". He deserves a massive thank you from everyone who has accessed this.
You're the best guitar music theory teacher I've ever seen! 👍 🎶💕
Hi, Ricky.
I have no words to express my gratitude to you. I watched a lot of people on UA-cam who call themselves a guitar teacher, but none of them talked in such a way as to show the whole system as a whole. It's just wow! You are not just great, you are the greatest teacher. You didn't just open the door, you opened it for everyone who wants to learn to play the guitar. Thank you, dear person and teacher, for having consistently, step by step, decomposed this huge puzzle into its component parts and presented it to everyone who was looking for it.
With gratitude. All the best to you
I stopped playing guitar for about 20 years. Basically self taught as a teenager. Never could quite put all my puzzle pieces together. Year and a half ago I decided to regroup my kids are grown now and I want to focus time on playing music. Learning music. Again! After stumbling upon your UA-cam channel. You have helped me connect all my puzzle pieces. Super appreciative! And I’m definitely getting this book! Can’t thank you enough love the way you teach. For some reason it just connects with me. Different strokes different folks! Everyone learns differently. Thank you!
Ricky,
I've come to learn a lot of theory over the last while. So, even though there may not have been a lot here that was substantially new to me, you always manage to sneak things in. The nuances of your presentation always add something worthwhile!
Thanks! (Canadian here, but my great-great-grandfather was born in Leeds and his parents in Knayton and Armley.)
Great stuff! Thank you for offering such insight🙌
Love this! Learning modes first really helps!
Ricky, you are the man! So many lightbulb moments to thank you for.
Brilliant Lesson, Well Done Dube. Thanks for the hour of freedom from within this mad world.
I love your simplistic approach of writing it down on a sheet of paper/graph. It took me a long time to understand music theory because no one ever explained it to me in a way that made sense, but your approach really emphasizes how simplistic it really is. Great stuff.
Hello Ricky your teaching is a blessing ie : 5R3 etc... etc ♥️
I've been watching your videos and honestly you are the best. I've learned a lot of things from you. Thanks a million!
You’re the best Ricky. Love your philosophy, love the lessons and super grateful mate. Keep up the great stuff
Thank you Ricky! Brill lesson. Superb.
Hi Ricky, Greetings from Brazil!
I just want to thank you for this video, your didactics is outstanding!
I play guitar for almost 7 years now, and i had private classes but these subjects have never been clear for me.
You're amazing and i'm addicted to your videos!
Thanks a lot!
I've been searching for this for a long time thank you so much
Thanks Ricky, outstanding
Uff. Amazing. I'm from a different country (Basque) but thoroughly enjoyed this lesson. It has been an eye opener to me. I now understand a lot more and, at long last, I am able to enjoy the idea of learning the modes with a purpose. Thanks a lot. I'll be around from now on!
I don't know if it's because I watched a whole bunch of other videos on the matter or not, but this is the first time I feen I can really wrap my head around modes. Your "Synonim" system is awesome, and you are a very very good teacher. Thank you!
bit of gold. very useful
Ricky, you are oneof the best guitar teachers I've ever seen! Thank you for what you do!
Eyup Myron! I'm honoured. I'm a big fan of your channel and have watched many of your videos!!
Great job, Ricky, as always. You are giving a perfect example of Hormozi's value equation. Reducing the time and effort to increase the value. Well done.
Too many people think they'll put off anything to do with modes. They are integrated, learn them as you go... Great lesson Ricky 😊
Yep! Shrapnel! We always called it that 😊
Well done man! You have such a great didactic!
Watched last night then watched again the next morning this is the best lesson IV ever watched
Wow , watched this twice to understand it , then ended up copying your chart as a reference to hang on my music room wall , It hangs beside chord progression charts I put up , This is amazing , connecting the modes to the chords like this , with the focus on building simple melodies around the thirds of each chord
gives me endless ideas that sound so good , Thank you so much , getting a copy of your book so I can follow along with other lessons , this lesson has changed my whole approach ,
Thanks again
I;m A First Timer Ricky! Great Theory lesson ! Yes, It is Profound! Kinda like the Math, " Mandelbrot set "! I'm 65 and Started Playing guitar when I was 14....... In my 20's drifted away from guitar..... " Life " love Music too much.....started playing again in the 90's........ but Growing up In N.Y.C. I went to A Vocational High school and was playing and teaching Myself guitar at Home...... learning by Ear off Albums...... And Teaching myself the " BOOK OF 101 CHORDS"....... And Low and behold Chelsea H.S in my Junior year, started a Music Class..... and the Teacher was A Piano and Trumpet player Named Artie Blouh ........ Learning Theory from A Pro Opened up A new World! This Reminds Me of way back then !
Ricky, about a week and a half ago something lit up and I get everything you are saying. I have since learned the musical alphabet on the entire fretboard and even l
Converted the notes to numbers from 1 to 7 for the scales cross the fret board to every 13th. I find it easier to memorize number patterns. love GFEDCBA! You are awesome man! I am consuming everything you put out and I have your book. You have changed my life!
Hello from Indiana, USA. I just found you on UA-cam and I love your lessons. You have a very enjoyable teaching style. Looking forward to watching all your videos and just bought your book on Amazon.
Bob D.
Sorry Ricky missed the lesson. Love the book and your lessons
I wish these lessons could come with homework to further help sink this great lesson home
This lesson went over my head. Lmao. I FELT stupid E to the 9th. But maybe one day. I find the patterns of this stuff is what is helping me on the chord chart in each position, like how i learned each box of the pentatonic. So for now i will learn that and put the puzzle together later .
What you did illustrate beautifully is the synonyms of the the modes. When someone is saying major I, how it also means like 5 other things. That was helpful. Eventually I will have the money to buy your book and future book. For now your lessons are gold. Can't wait for the PDFs also. Keep it up.
Thank you.
This is a powerful and nicely condensed lesson. I've never seen a graph that shows so well how everything is related in one place like this. As far as a title for your next lesson book - I think it would be deceiving to call it "Stupidly Simple". I can tell from some of the comments, in the chat, that some people don't understand that you are not going to get everything in this great chart you just produced in one go. A person thinking this can be "simple" and looking for a quick path to success will be highly disappointed when they figure out that this takes work and you can't just jump into the middle of it. You did your best to explain that you can't go to a foreign country with their dictionary in hand and expect to have a useful conversation with the locals if you haven't learned the language.
As someone who has made all of the mistakes (except for the ones I haven't tried yet) I'm pretty sure that the "I understand/I don't understand" comments are all relative to how much time and effort each individual has been putting into theory. The biggest reason people don't want to even try at this is because they don't have a plan/route to learning the various concepts and bite off chunks they can't digest.
Eating an elephant takes one bite at a time but you probably should at least know where you're going to start and whether you're going to grind it, BBQ it, or stew it, and what parts you're going to toss.
Hopefully this is taken as constructive. Long answer to your short question about naming your next book.
Thanks again for what you are doing for us monkeys, :)
It was beautifully said! Wonderful words of gratitude to the greatest teacher.
Learning from a knowledgeable and experienced teacher is worth its weight in gold, especially for beginners, imo (akin to a finding a shortcut on an otherwise long journey).
Grasping the Nashville Numbering System wont necessarily make one a better player, but it certainly makes life easier--like looking at a map and actually being able to read it.
I cannot appreciate how this man teaches.
This is massive
I loved it, and you are a great teacher...up to around 52 minutes where you just explained something in A I was with you 100%. But then you lost me when you grabbed the guitar and switched to G instead...Trying to keep up but I think this second half deserves it's own video. thank you for all this.
Wow. Another mind bending one Ricky. A somewhat digestible fire hose.
Thank you! Book came today ... 😊
Wonderful! Thank you for your support! I hope you enjoy it!
At 75 years old I think maybe i don't have 30 years to learn this lesson,, It mostly all went right over my head and my brain is starting to hurt. I will revert back to some of your other lessons that have been very usefull to me.
This is the money maker thanks i finally understand modes wow
its all the same............awesome man really .
Hi Ricky,
This was challenging, however, I finally got it. The suspended 2 and 4 note pattern changes on certain chords in the Key. If I use the Root or I chord pattern over the IV chord it sounds awful. Using your scale formula chart and using the #4 note vs the 4 note over the IV chord sounded great. I was able to use this method over a V IV I Progression in G Major D C G to solo over Can't You See by Marshall Tucker Band and it sounded like I knew what I was doing. Thanks for a tough but rewarding lesson.
Proper Chap. Hello everyone from the beach in Southern California.New Sub here. I'm as thick as they come. Been screwing around going in circles for 46 years.I'm tired of faking it. I have my moments like a lot of Hacks do, but a Bullshi**er is a Bullshi**er, and a fisherman can spot a Fisherman afar Attention Deficit and head injuries, it's challenging for me to grasp. I'm just going to keep watching this and the channel. Hopefully, the patterns engrain themselves into my Psyche/Brain. Love what you said about if the world played music together. Spot On.
I'm going to buy your e book soon 😀
Ricky Don't Lose that Numeral ;) SUBBED
Maine USA here Eyup Professor Ricky
When does the Stupidly Simple book come out? I just bought your other one! Thank you for all your great lessons.
Hey Ricky. Thanks for these options.. of demystifying guitar playing.. been on-off playing for many years and never got the basics right.. Now (maybe better will and time too) i’m getting the idea 😅 Funny; i can operate the engine room in at supertanker, but couldn’t play decent Guitar (at least not at the same time). It does require the light to be switched on, to see clear 😂 Got your book, too, absolut worth every penny, as backing to you videos, and beyond. Best greetings from Denmark.
Hi Ricky, glad to find your channel and enjoying your content with detailed info. However wondering if your book is available in Amazon - India website. If not, where to look to grab a copy? Any PDF avaialble for a price would also do I can then take a print out too
Hi Ricky merry Christmas Bro
Hello from Canada
Ricky,
Shrapnel? What a great name for change!
Damn I just found your channels and this is absolutely brilliantly explained Ricky. You have a fantastic way of explaining things. So my understanding now is, once you have your chord pattern down (eg I IV vi V) you can then look up the equivalent mode (and then your triads for each of these chords can be use with the arrpegio notes in those modes) ? Eg chord I would be in IONIAN mode which would lead you to the triad formula. You would then use the 2 and the 4 (in this case natural notes because IONIAN has no #’s or b’s) as part of the melody ?
Eccy thump lad !! ;-). I used to live in Yorkshire !!! 😉
nice
We call it spare change (for beggers, pan handlers).
Hi Ricky yeh man I forgot, but i'm here now hope we can have a great time cheers mate.
I am revisiting this session (1/8/24) - I make of use all of your pdf's - did you ever do a link to this pdf?
edit - OK, I caught the answer at the end, thanks.
I love a good punchline right at the end of the lesson.

I believe that if everyone could play music we could speak without understanding a word. Music is a international language that everyone can understand. No matter what instrument, we don't even have to read or understand theory or reading just playing. But reading and knowing theory everything is international with that using notes or number like Key of E 1 45 everyone knows chords would be E, A B or use A key and use 1 ii iii 4 5 vi vii. Love your teaching method serious but light hearted and funny. Keep up being yourself, light hearted and funny.
Hello from St. Louis, Missouri, USA
😊❤
This is another FANTASTIC lesson. The thing that scrambles my brain is this. Min Pentatonic form 1 is in the ii,iii, and vi and the Maj pentatonic form 1 shape is in the I,IV,V. 🥴example keyGmajor: we have Amin/pent shape 1 and Bmin pent shape 1 and Emin pent shape 1. Is it better to see this as extracting the Maj/Min Pentatonic scale degrees from the modal scale formula?💡is this a lightbulb moment ?😢🤦♂️🤯
Spot on Tim!
Hi Rick, learning so much from your channel. Thank you. However, in this lesson when you were "banging out" the formula's and Cof3rds, it was going straight over my head. I had (still do) no idea where you were getting the flats, sharps from and how they were applying to the formula? Probably obvious to others, but i just couldn't follow. Also, as side note. This format doesn't work on my phone very well. The chat to the side takes up 1/3rd of the screen making your drawing super hard to read. Switched over to the PC, was a bit better. Cheers Rick, and pls keep up the great work!
I like ( buga ) smile
Haven’t seen you in a while
You are magnificent Ricky, I think I’ve got it. Alan ( ch )😅
If people played music together the world wouldn't be in such a crap state! Truer words were never spoken, Ricky!
Not silly
Very informative
Hi Ricky,
From the home of the Pilgrims. Plymouth.
I sorta know all this stuff...at least enough of it, and it hasn't helped me solo any better. I know scales, I know chord theory, the Nashville number system...all I play is Ionian, major/minor pentatonic (in one position), and Byzantine. Idk arpeggios very much and so far what I know of them was stiffed cause it didn't change my playing significantly... People tellin' me to learn the locations of ALL the notes on the fret board and the interval relationships, licks, etc. I just can't play anything creative OR even borrowed. I'm not on Adderall anymore, and therefore nothing sticks like it used to. I wish I could make the connections that would make it possible, but I'm at the point that I'm truly startin' to believe that only some people ever develop this ability and others just don't...and they hopefully can just do rhythm really well *fingers crossed* or just always and forever feel like giving up. I shouldn't be so dismayed having been learning this stuff for over 20 years! I can't tell any difference in the modes...they all sound the same to me, and they all go straight to the tonic of the Ionian. They say music and math are similar, yeah cause they make sense when the teacher is talking about it, and none when the student is working on the assignment. -=:-(
im here
do u live stream every Wednesday?
Yes, on Wednesdays :)
very well, see u next week
👍

Im going to have to watch this 100 times to get this. What is confusing is once you picked up the guitar you start talking about suspensions . You didnt use this wording on the chart we worked on for 45 min. Glad I bought the book. Perhaps this lesson right now is to far advanced. Ive been stuck on learning all the notes on the guitar. I feel I must know this before I move on.
Ricky I want to make contact with you on this idea of being off Facebook I just don't like it, please keep me informed of your online classes they are great, just love it, they are very informative, bit deep some times but informative , however I do need to get the book cheers mate
Hi rickey is there a link to the download version
There's a handout/PDF in the files section in my Facebook group :)
@@rickysguitar was meaning to purchase the pdf download of the book ?
You should gain some compensation for your free lessons through your published lesson notes - goodonya.
yo
I'm still in shock that somebody would ask how you knew it was an A chord. Tell me you're a complete noob without tellin' me you're a complete noob. Gah!
Everyone was a noob at some point. You don’t know what you don’t know.
@@rickysguitar You're right. Whatever my teacher said, though, that is what I took wholeheartedly. I didn't ask questions. I picked up everything when the timing happened as well. I didn't have UA-cam, or ANY online resources. I had a teacher and a book. I never assumed I knew it all either at the time, which is how I perceived their question. Lookin' back, they probably had no clue about the 6th string root notes...after EADGBe that was the next thing I memorized. Which has been a small struggle now that I have elected to play a 7-string...my lower strings are throwin' me off from time to time, but gettin' more acquainted with 'em. I do appreciate your patience and gentleness with me, and thank you for the lesson that I'll be chewing on for a good while. Haha 🤗❤️🤗
I would join something that is your community but not facebook. I'll leave at that.
Merci de nous apprendre à pêcher au lieu de te contenter de nous donnerdes poissons
Hi my intelligent friend triumvirate was a 3 power ruling system in ancient Rome. You are smarter than you 💭 think.
I HOPE THAT YOU CAN PRODUCE A "KINDLE" (E-BOOK) VERSION!
I ALREADY HAVE TOO MANY "PRINTED" HARD-COPY BOOKS, AND CAN'T CARRY THEM EVERYWHERE...
THANKS RICKY.
I'M A BIT LOST AS TO HOW YOU CAME UP WITH THOSE "SCALE FORMULAS"!!...
