  • You’ve heard me use this progression many times, but I keep going back to it because there is so much great stuff in it.
    It’s a simple progression, but has a few things that are so much fun and I think will help you visualize and hear some things that will really open up the fretboard and your ear.
    E / Ab7 / C#- / E7 / A / B7

    Just in case anyone is wondering, a secondary dominant is a dominant chord of the next chord. Ab7 is the dominant chord in Cm. It sounds good because the dominant chord (the V chord) always leads your ear back to the I chord.
    Another example is E7 to A. In the key of A, E7 is the dominant, or the V chord. You can do this for any chord, just insert the V of the next chord you’re going to play before it and you’re in business.

    I have been avidly following GT since the first Brett Papa video that I was introduced to him, and it took me a year or two to realize that if I want to understand his improv, I had to learn what he said to learn....knowing the chord shapes of CAGED is only the basic foundation, you have to dive into the arpeggios found in the shape, triads/pentatonics/major scale....but if you havent really studied triads and the major scale the way you should alot of info will fly over your head. Once you dive into those topics as well as relative minors....it all starts to make sense, It just doesnt happen all at once from a free video or three....I would love to afford some one on ones with Guthrie, but im good at taking what I get and knowing what I need to learn, and I use GT videos to that extent....and now im still just intermediate, because the more you learn, the more you realize you dont know.
    Guthrie has taught me so much in the last 4 or so years, and I havent been able to pay for it, but hopefully I will some day

    I greatly appreciate all your content, Guthrie. One thing I think never gets stressed enough for all of us watching these videos is the very simple fact that you need to spend a LOT of time with your guitar if you really want to improve. Most of us are busy with families and just trying to get by in this cruel world, but a person just has to carve out the time and commit to it. I’m trying to put that into practice in this new year. Say “hi” to Billy!😎

    This past week I've been playing the triads in the key of D below around
    the 5th fret. Each set of three strings has three different triad shapes,
    so I'm kinda getting D and E with one shape, F# and G with another and
    and A and B with the third, C# with whichever one is handy, then moving
    on to the next set of three strings and so on, deriving the shapes as I go
    and accounting for minor and diminished. Sounds tedious to write out,
    but has been great fun, and watching Guthrie's videos is what makes me
    think of doing stuff like that when I'm noodling.
    Now, seeing this video, and seeing how he's doing the same thing
    with the chords from his progression is very interesting. My buddy
    Kent and I used to play "Blues for Dixie" (chords on the Internet),
    and its progressions are a lot like the one Guthrie is using here.
    I'm motivated to go figure out how to play Blues for Dixie all
    over the neck using triads... thanks for another blast of inspiration
    Guthrie!

    I would love to have been in the room when Guthrie was a beginner/intermediate player and decided to start memorizing all these triads and linked scales up and down the neck. What was that feeling like - that decision? This is a task! And I'm a pianist who can read notation and knows theory. The fretboard is like pawing around in the dark, to me.

    One thing I learn from GT's videos is patience. Sometimes I think I should watch a 25 minute video with a lot of information and grasp it and apply it immediately. This is funny since I've been playing 35 years and it has taken 20,000 hours to get where I am today as a player. My advice is take a 5 minute "chunk" of material and focus on it for 20 minutes. Then move on to something else like learning a song you've wanted to learn. I've found if I spend too long on one thing I get distracted, bored, and I don't retain what I've learned. Thanks Guthrie. I'm a better player today because of your UA-cam stuff and the 2 courses I've purchased.
