    Brian, I just wanted to tell you. I've been playing for 2 years and bought your course and have logged on learned the first layer of the fretboard and let that digest this past year and am now ready to move on to the caged system and chord tone targeting. Compared to other people, I feel as if I have learned way more theory about how to sound good way faster. Thanks for your course making everything about theory as simple as it could possibly be.

      @@matthewperry6506 oh okay...sorry about that then! I understand now that you are talking about the "switching pentatonics" or the "3 pentatonics" approach. That is certainly a valid approach for sure, and I've done lesson vids on it before...but it's not my personal favorite method. I personally prefer to think "one scale and target chord tones", which is what I was talking about in this video.
      Here's an older video about the "3 pentatonics" approach. I believe I just used pentatonic box #1 for each of the 3 pentatonics, whereas you are talking about lumping it all together into one small fretboard area. It's the same idea though: ua-cam.com/video/jNubvZbZ9k0/v-deo.html

Solved interface noise by running ac off seperate circuit from greenhouse breaker outside the studio and adding fan to drown out ac mechanical noise in room also allows me to set thermastat lower.

I think it would be amazing to see you break down cover songs for guys that are wanting to break into playing covers and cover bands! Maybe a spin off kindof thing on your channel. 🤷‍♂️

    Thank you for sharing. Would you say if we are into learning blues then the 2nd pentatonic box would be good to learn in addition to 1 and 4 (along with the associated chords within)? Reason I ask is because I see a lot of material being covered around blues licks in the "home base" shape of that 2nd box.

    • @zombieguitar
      @zombieguitar  28 днів тому +3

      I'm actually going to do a vid in response to this question next week. "Blues theory" is a bit different of an approach then what we are talking about here, but even in blues you will find that box #1 and #4 are the ones that are used most often. In order to expand a bit for more "diagonal" playing, people usually add the "upper and lower extensions" to each box pattern. The upper extension is a little piece of box #2 and the lower extension is a little piece of box #5. I will go over all of this in the next vid!

    I just quit a "band" because the bassist refused to change keys to match vocals. He kept saying " sing it in your voice ". But my voice is in another key than the original. He wouldn't budge. So instead of straining my vocals. I just stepped down. Is that a normal thing to experience in a band?

    • @zombieguitar
      @zombieguitar  19 днів тому +1

      I highly recommend not using CAGED names to label "positions". There are pentatonic positions, and then there are CAGED chord shapes.
      Using CAGED names to label positions is the root cause of the confusion with the CAGED system.
      The reason why is explained here: ua-cam.com/video/x2Mb2U-0FUA/v-deo.htmlsi=1Rucb9WXIUwPDiGG
