Love this channel! I've been playing basically chords only for a long time and this is super helpful for me. I need to do a lot of practicing with a pick as well.
I’m a newbie also and the best advice I’ve had so far from a brutally honest teacher was for me to stop buying guitars, stop guitar teching on my guitars, stop playing luthier on my guitars with all the changing of saddles, and stop tweaking nut and bridge heights, or Plec fret’s and just play the friggin guitar. I set a goal of practicing everyday without missing 2 consecutive days for six months. I practice until my fingers are so sore that holding a hot coffee mug hurts okay not hurt but stings a bit. That’s when I grabbed my music theory book and my iPad and starting subscribing, liking and watching videos..I drew my own diagrams of my guitar neck with fret board and strings I made several copies and then I started writing down what these teachers were saying so I could get the image of the scale patterns right in front of me to look at and study. It has helped me to see how scale patterns interconnect. I am able to answer some of my own questions about theory after writing the note locations on my frett board diagrams. I didn’t just make a single diagram I have many that I filled with information but as I begin to understand theory the need for all the writing has lessened. I did this work while I gave my fingers a day off from time to time. Truthfully I usually end up picking up my guitar and playing a bit after I write just to make sure it’s correct. You can hear when it’s not correct where I made an error when writing information from my notes and putting information on my diagrams. When all the timing starts to come together when fretting a note or chord and strumming or picking strings and switching between them well for me it all seems to just work smoother now or it’s is beginning too at last and I find myself not pressing so hard to get a clean sound or a clean dirty sound and that leads to playing longer. My finger tips have calloused a bit but I really think it’s more about everything starting to work and I’m not fighting it every step. Im very thankful for all these videos as well.
@@swiftlessons ok i will check it out but can you show it in the example also to learn them because I'm new to using Major pentatonic licks in my guitar solo so I don't know how to use them. ACDC i guess used major pentatonic licks often in solos but not sure which ACDCsolos
@@swiftlessons see how this works Eminor pentatonic scale Relative Major is Gmajor Eminor Pentatonic scale the Relative Major is also C# Pentatonic minor scale which will be a E Major Pentatonic scale but its really a C# pentatonic minor scale. -----A minor pentatonic scale Relative Major is C major A minor pentatonic scale Relative Major is also F# minor pentatonic scale which will be an A Major pentatonic scale but its really an F# minor pentatonic scale -----See how the "relative keys" are different relative keys from major keys/minor keys compared to pentatonic relative keys. A minor the relative Major key is C Major A minor the "relative pentatonic Major key" is F# minor
That was the perfect lesson. Informative, short, and directed. Nice job!
This is the best tutorial of how the CAGED system and pentatonic scale are intertwined. Well done!
Your lessons are always hit what I want to learn!
Thank you Rob!

Great lesson!! I’m really curious what gauge string do you use? I use .11 myself and scaling with those is rough on the fingers for a newbie.

SWIFTLESSONS, --------------------------> which guitar solos used the Major Pentatonic licks scale can you make a lesson showing a bunch of examples?
Sure that’s a great idea. To get you started check out Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam.
@@swiftlessons ok i will check it out but can you show it in the example also to learn them because I'm new to using Major pentatonic licks in my guitar solo so I don't know how to use them.
ACDC i guess used major pentatonic licks often in solos but not sure which ACDCsolos
@@swiftlessons see how this works
Eminor pentatonic scale Relative Major is Gmajor
Eminor Pentatonic scale the Relative Major is also C# Pentatonic minor scale which will be a E Major Pentatonic scale but its really a C# pentatonic minor scale.
-----A minor pentatonic scale Relative Major is C major
A minor pentatonic scale Relative Major is also F# minor pentatonic scale which will be an A Major pentatonic scale but its really an F# minor pentatonic scale
-----See how the "relative keys" are different relative keys from major keys/minor keys compared to pentatonic relative keys.
A minor the relative Major key is C Major
A minor the "relative pentatonic Major key" is F# minor
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
