    This is gold: "Let it be hard, the harder it is for you and the slower it is for you, the more you're gaining from it... When we don't look for shortcuts; when we don't take shortcuts and look things up all the time; when we take this longer process that takes more patience and that's annoying and it's frustrating and hard to do and we wish we were better...that's when it really sticks. That's when we get long-term knowledge. That's when we get stuff that just seems obvious to us because we've done it enough and lived it."

    Love love love your channel Jared, so well taught!
    I believe the chord is E minor 7 flat 5
    Root, b3, b5 and b7
    Thanks for teaching such great material!

      i just watched the entire lesson excellent test .. if the E is the root (tonic) the perfect fifth is flattened( Bb on the A string) ..if I understand this is likely an Eb5/7 diminished triad with the (3rd flat being the root the tonic (open E string is muted) second A string first fret is the b5 ( no longer a perfect fifth hence it's a diminished asus/and the funny test is the b string is a D in terms of being diminished 7th.. if you mentioned octaves you have the open E strings and the D string second fret is an E note .. interesting test..not sure if i passed but this is fun!

    This lesson is exactly what I had been looking for Thank you so much. To anyone struggling to put this together (as i did) I'd recommend putting on a backing track of just one chord and practicing on 2 different strings each time until you feel confident and then changing the chord, making it more tricky, adding 7ths and moving it up or down and then start again.

    Started studying classical guitar over 40 years ago. Now that I'm studying jazz guitar (my Achilles heel) I realized a few months ago that understanding intervals and how to see them on the fingerboard is one of the most important things to learn. I learned as a kid how to play I-IV-V blues (because everyone jammed to it) and so knew where to find them on the 6th and 5th strings, but never took it to the next level. THIS is vital to learn. Great job Jared on putting this out there...in multiple lessons.

    I’m all-in for this series; it’s connecting many dots and filling in the blanks. Much easier than transcribing into notes then into interval names. I don’t need to create charts and write out spellings, just grabbed my guitar. Thank you for a hard and challenging quiz. X b5 1 b3 b7 1

      Ha, four months later, I arrive at the same answer: x b5 1 b3 b7 1, but it was easier this time.
      I recognized the sound of this cord immediately, its used in CSN's "Lady of the Island".

I mentally freeze up on a one-to-one lesson in person when I’m asked to identify chords. Same when performing.

    • @Guitar4LifeYa
      @Guitar4LifeYa Рік тому

      You could play that low E string but what I have learned recently is sometimes the more notes you play may not be the sound you want. It’s very relative and personal. It’s ok if you want to play the low E and it’s ok if you don’t want to either. It’s what YOU want it to sound like. Ariel Posen and Paul Davids talk about this a great deal in a recent video about triads, you should check it out. It cleared that issue up for me.

    You have to remember that not everyone learns at the same level and speed. This seems like it should be heard to more advanced people who maybe studied music theory I think because I am just not getting it and I have watched the previous videos a few times some where along the line I am getting lost and not connecting the dots, something.

    So, yeah, same guy who mentioned that the string intervals are 5, 5, 5, 4, 5. So the chord diagram at the end is: b5, R, b3, b7, R. It's an Em7b5 rooted on the 4th string. You might wonder why I watch videos like this if I have this knowledge. Well, I'm not a trained musician, so I pick up greater understanding of music, not theory, from watching these. Thanks for your efforts to help us be better musicians.
