Which would you recommend for a guy that’s been playing for over 25 years, can play rhythm with the best of em, has only a rudimentary knowledge of music theory, but sounds like a chimp banging on a piano when trying to play lead? I’ve made it my renewed goal to learn how to be proficient at soloing (learning all the notes, scales, how to play them over chords and when the chords change, etc)
An educated, polite and thorough explanation on UA-cam without useless blabbering or showing off? Incredible! Thank you! What a professional!
+KaiTakApproach Not to mention that the tone of the guitar isn't 100% distorted with tons of reverb, echo, etc. This is the way to teach, Steve!
Finally somebody explain this properly thanks a million Great video.
+KaiTakApproach Lol what matters is u learn. It's free info for you, so you don't get to decide wht hte content is :)
this guy is great
+KaiTakApproach ABSOLUTELY !!!
You were born to teach.
+kamaboko1 agreed, a capable teacher makes all the difference.
And we were born to learn.
I think he's I heard him say before he's day job was a high school teacher.
One of the best online instructors on the net in my opinion. This guy is an amazing player and a very skilled teacher as well.
7 years later, wow. What an amazing lesson. So many youtube teachers rush through points that might seem confusing to beginners, such as myself but your thorough explanation is very great! Thank you
ur the best teacher on youtube
+Dogarn The Marauder This comment needs 100,000 thumbs.
+Dogarn The Marauder along with papastache , really good teachers
yeah! even papastache!
+Dogarn The Marauder this guy was born a guitar teacher...he really knows how to break things to it's simplistic form
+Valerie Hayter Music. Theory. Plus, everyone learns differently, so different teachers are better for different students.
Steve Stine is a awesome teacher
Wow where have you been all my life?
Better late than never!
Thank You so much!
I've watched 20 different videos trying to understand this and this is, by far, the best teaching on the subject. Thanks for posting.
The very best teacher not holding him back to give us free REAL PRACTICAL theory
Steve stine . It is simply superb . you are my hero.
Playing 40 years and I am learning from you.Thank you.
Same here! 38 years
30 + for me.
31
I've been playing for 12 so I guess I started kind of early
3 months....Should I work on my tone before doing music theory?
18:55 of pure information. No showing off or useless chatter. You just earned a subscriber. Thank you!
This gentleman looks like he's in a black metal band. But he is the nicest guy ever
My teacher in guitar was a metalhead and he was nice. Nicer than some "normal" people.
Mukund Shivakumar as if a nice person in black metal is unusual?
Jessrey Mark Solijon like mick Thompson from slipknot😉
Steve is a class act...he has taught me so much from his free videos.
Judge a book by it's cover much?
my understanding just shot through the roof listening to this genius! thank you!
Again, again, and again, you are THE best teacher i ever had!!!!!!!!!
THANKS MAN!!!!!!
You are an incredible instructor. This stuff has always made my brain hurt but you make it understandable. Too many instructors seem to have the goal of impressing others with their skill rather than teaching. Their egos get in the way of teaching. That can be very frustrating for someone trying to learn. Your style obviously puts the student first and it's not intimidating or frustrating at all. Thanks so much for making these videos.
Great place to start your guitar journey!
I found this to be such an easy way to approach learning the fretboard.
+Gordon Clark That is nice to hear!
Been with you for many years now Steve. Your easy way of teaching is spot on!. Your smooth delivery and profound musical experience has made better players out of all who follow. Words of praise and respect for taking the time to encourage us all. In plain old English, YOU ROCK STEVE THANKS FOR BEING HERE FOR US! There are truly no words to express the appreciation we all feel. Much RESPECT my friend..
I'm not a native at the English language but this man teached me in such a simple, non complicated way with words I could understand and apply everything to my guitar! I've learned so much and never thought it could be actually really fun learning this kind of music theory!! Thank you so much!
Keep it coming, you make this fun and easy.
A handful of these videos and my playing and understanding have improved immensely. Learning to play was on my bucket list,
Some people just have a natural tendency towards teaching, it's in the tonality of their voice, the way their brains deconstruct concepts and recompose them in a manner that can greatly assist the student to assimilate said concept, and in every facet of their articulation on a subject. To me this chap embodies all that, a great teacher. I've watched so many music theory videos, this is undoubtedly one of the best ones I've seen to date, well done
This guy is hands down keeping me from giving up! Everytime I struggle as a beginner. I watch a video of the Stine-Master!
After 10 years of playing songs just by learning chords and tabs , i am finally starting to understand Music theory with the help of your lessons. A big thank you for the wonderful and easy teaching method. Wish you the best :)
You are hands down one of the best guitar teachers I've found on youtube. Very informative. Thanks
You were born to teach guitar. Thank you so much for making it easy.
And he's pretty much teaching us piano too, we just don't know it yet!
Searching such video for about 10 years, i can cry thank u so much all your videos inspired me to play my guitar back that i stopped for 10 years
I've finally found a guitar teacher who makes everything make such common sense.
Your the Best Steve !
OK I knew all of this but this made it 1000x easier than before. Subbed.
THX! We like your humble attitude,and of course your knowledge of the instrument!
Your way of explaining how things are working is awesome - very detailed, but also straight to the point. Excellent - now I am taking a look at your courses on your homepage.
Thanks for your efforts.
This guy is the best teacher on YT by far...the way he explains things is just better than everyone else -- Trust me, I've been on this site since 2006!
Bro, you are OUTSTANDING . I'm actually enjoying this lesson!! GD bless you and your outstanding work!!!!
good work ,,,I'm and old duffer pro player, recommended your channel, to some young upstarts , you make it accessible more musicians in the world the better important to stress that any one can do it with a bit of application,,,
I learned all of this as a child, when I learned to play a few different instruments, including the guitar. But my native language is German and when I started watching tutorial guitar videos on youtube, I felt the need to learn all the English music theory vocabulary to understand those videos properly. This is why I watched this video. It is just wonderful. Steve Stine is an excellent teacher. Like many other viewers have stated: instant subscription.
I'm just about 58, been playing since I was 11. Only in the last 8 years have I started this Theory seriously and you Sir, are an excellent professor. Than You!
Dude you're a brilliant teacher!! I knew most of this,but the whole dot thing was ground breaking for me! You earned yourself a subscriber.
very concise and easy to understand. personally I would never tell a student that there is no such thing as B# or an E#, but I do understand why you said that. I would have said "there is no such thing as a black key after B and E".
again, I appreciate why you made it easy.
+Lonny Sarao If I recall correctly there are circumstances in music where you do refer to a note as B# and E#..I wish I could remember exactly..
They are called enharmonic equivalents
B#=C, E#=F, Just the same as Ab=G# and so forth
Since you only name each letter note once in a diatonic scale, you must refer to C natural as B# when speaking of the key of C#. For exampl, the key of C# is spelled out as: C#-D#-E#-F#-G#-A#-B#
Lonny Sarao
thank you ..that was exactly what I was trying to remember from music theory class 40 yrs ago...it was the fact that you can only use the letter once..also I recall situations with double sharps and flats...This is stuff that hasn't come up in a long time but I can almost still hear my teacher pounding so much into my young brain.If anybody wants to be a good musician I recommend a music school no matter what style or how good they may already be.Smartest move of my life..
I've been playing guitar for about ten years now. I learned by sight and by ear. This video just opened up an entire new world for me with the guitar. I learned music theory in high school and was pretty good at it but never really tried to apply it to the guitar and you gave it complete clarity my friend!! Thank you so much!!!
I got my first guitar in 1998. I bought books and what not and taught myself chords. I played in bands in high school and college, wrote songs etc. I eventually quit playing bc I stopped progressing. I never learned the theory behind it. Well here I am in 2020 determined to start playing again and actually learn the instrument. I am so glad I found this video. This man is phenomenal. Very articulate and informative. Nicely done.
8:04 MIND BLOWN :OOOOOOO
Lmfao
+arcykaplanhehe lmao this is funny because it is something only a novice guitar play like us could understand
+ChelseaGrinMan001 to anybody else it is just a guy pointing at a white board like what is he talking about
+arcykaplanhehe what blew it
Sleeping Patterns A sharp and B flat are the same note
Regardless of other comments, you have a very cl;ear and concise manner of teaching.Other less effective attempts are overrated and probably over-compensated. Thank You.
after 20 years of playing guitar i watch 8 minutes of a video on youtube and it makes sense... Thanks
The first teaching guitar tutorial i've sat through more than 2 mins!
Not because i don't know this information, but because he puts it in such a "great way" and i really enjoyed listening to his lesson and enthusiasm for guitar.
Really looking forward to getting stuck into some advanced videos!! =D
Thanks for your time and effort and for sharing!!
Well said, Steve (as always). Understanding Music Theory is the cornerstone of becoming a competent musician. All of the 'greats' used theory, even though they didn't realize it.
+ASquared007 yeah. people say Hendrix didn't know theory but if you watch any footage of him in the studio writing, arranging, or recording it's obvious he knew a lot about theory.
LevitatorMusic Exactly.
+LevitatorMusic ...Hendrix had a solid grasp of blues and R&B playing...and the creativity to take it beyond the boundaries of the time. It would have been interesting to watch him grow and explore further.
+LevitatorMusic he also was going to fire his drummer and bass players for not understanding the soul theory fundamental in African American music.
Steve, you make all of this easy to understand. Maybe it's because i'm excited to learn as much as possible. Either way, i'm going to practice your techniques, memorize what you tell me to, and take it from there. Wish I could jam and practice with you live, but this is a great alternative. Thanks again bro, Joe.
I have been struggling for years trying to find some real guitar lessons on UA-cam until I found you! You awesome man thanks a lot
One of the best guitar teacher here on youtube. Keep it up!!!
OK I have officially found my new online guitar teacher, my kind of thinking and so i think this will work for me. Thanks heaps boss :)
Excellent video and an absolute must watch for all beginners.
I am 43 and just started tinkering with the guitar for brain exercise. It has made me more appreciative details of music i have heard for years. Your videos are clear and thorough, a great way to start learning.
I have searched for many youtube channels for guitar teacher...All just started teaching chords and then started playing songs...u uploaded the most imp thing... subscribed
Agreed with most other comments here. You were born to teach. Well done and thanks heaps!
+Fiend O'caster Thank you and you are welcome!
loll
you sayed you have been teacher for about 27 years
i thought you were about 27 years old xD
After years of playing by ear, I recently began to learn to play the trumpet. Because I now read music to play trumpet, as well as improvise. I've discovered the joy of being able to open up a book of music and just play a new song. The memory of knowing what note you are actually playing, and better still to see how that looks as a note, is brilliant. I know we all hear about the great players who don't read, write music, but seriously, I think what this guy is pressing home is key to everything. Even if you don't ever read music, knowing what every single note is on your guitar, not just a tab number, is going to help so much as you progress as a player. I wished I'd done that approach to guitar years ago. I am now reversing up and intend to start reading guitar notation and become fluent with that. I'm nearly 50, and I still have an endless journey ahead of me. But learning something that makes you a better player is always worthwhile. This could be a very dull lesson, but this guy has made it anything but. Brilliant.
For the first time in 14 years i can read the notes on my guitar, and i will never forget! Thank you so much....
Instant subscribe...Definitely...these concepts have been plaguing me for years...you're like a guitarist/humanitarian. Thank you for the basic breakdown (for guitar-dummies)and for your clear, but still pretty detailed instruction...You deserve all those views you are getting. Thank you so much...Michael Caf (Massachusetts).
P.s- u look like a Rocker...are you in a band?...or have any playing out, live videos...I'd love to see/hit some views,if you have any...Thank u :)
Yes, Steve's in a band. Here's a playlist of some of his band footage. :) ua-cam.com/play/PLn8Cg_n-kuKAdtMV1sa0L74-Y4SYy8fmV.html
cool...Thank you for responding and for the link :)
That was the best lesson I've ever heard. Thank You!
By far you are the most down to earth plain spoken easy to learn from instructor on UA-cam and I don't know why it took so long to find your page. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dude, you are the damn bomb, I'm 44 yrs old, just bought my 1st guitars, an epiphone pro1 acoustic and a 2nd hand samick electric and small amp.
I've watched I can't tell you how many videos in the past few day, I even got the teach yourself to play dvd, and not a damn one of them broke it down like you just did. thank you from a true beginner. you absolutely have a new sub. thank you
Thanks for sharing this information, I've been wanting to start learning music theory and have been abit stuck on what direction to go, then suddenly came across this video and wow, you taught that in such a straight forward way and really easy to understand. I look forward to progressing with you other vids, cheers and keep up the great work 😀
I like when he pauses for a moment so that you have the time to comprehend what he says. Sign of a good instructor.
+Iron Pony Thank you for the feedback !
Thank you for stressing patience and practice!!
Great lesson man, spot on, simple to understand thanks!
Steve my friend: this was one great explanation. WoW. Impressed. joining your FB group already..Cheers! 🍻
Thank you so much for providing these lessons. 40 years of playing to a reasonable level of copy style, I have finally decided to understand what it is I am actually doing and your videos are just the best. Thanks from the UK. Bob
I've watched countless videos on youtube this is by far the best. I had every note on my low E down in about 15 minutes. This is an absolute brilliant way of explaining the chromatic scale.
KILL'er!!! Thank you so much, second video this morning & you've showed more than else else combined.
The Best Guitar Teacher on youtube indeed. Thanks for this Video. :) \m/
dude i been playing for 15 years and didn't have a clue what i was doing until YESTERDAY when i say your video :O this is like one of those major breakthroughs for me personally !! thank you a BUNCH !
Hands down the best teacher I've come across on UA-cam. Thank You!
Very helpful. It may sound confusing for beginners but when you get it you ll understand that its really nothing.
MeLexdy I'm scared, haven't started with learning yet cause I'm in school. I started in October in my guitar elective but we didn't learn jack shit of theory and barely any tabs. I began taking it seriously in march when I bought my first electric guitar. My goal is to be able to improvise or to be able to replicate a song just by hearing it. Is that possible? If so, you think it's hard?
Yeah its not as hard as it seems. All you need is to play everyday and invest time. It all comes natural at some point.
There are some steps that you have to take before you reach that level for improvisation.
Your fingers must automatically be place in the optimum spot before every fret, you must learn basic open chords,then learn barr chords , learn the pentatonic A minor.
All pretty small things that need their time but not hard to learn at all (maybe F,Bm barr chord but it becomes easy after a while)
Awesome lesson.
I opened for Muddy and Hooker on the road, and I needed this. Taught myself to play and write songs. Thanks!
Hi William! Wow that's awesome! Happy to know you liked the lesson and any questions please feel free to ask anytime!
I like this guy! Informative, polite, respectful, positive, practical... Very good learning experience.
instant subscribe
+Brad Barham Awesome!
same here :)
hes been teaching for 27 years? wtf did he start teaching at age 5
Steve looks like hes barely 30 years old,music keeps you young!
The Oulawz 14 :: he's 46...i think
PompeyMatt17 46?!?!?!?! Wtf he looks way younger than that.
Diminished, It's the power of music
@@9i9i9i9i9 Steve taught me what diminished means
Of the dozens of guitar tutors on UA-cam, 3 stand out for me. Justin Guitar, Laura Bateman, and Steve. Thanks for everything mate.
Thanks for your kind words! Glad to know you like the lessons. Any questions please feel free to ask.
Steve Stine is the instructor who will tackle the reasons on how music is,in theory,the what fores and the whys.He knows his stuff and apply it.
U are great!
Bruh..Awesome im Sub'n👍🏽🤓
You are one of the most incredible teachers I've ever encountered. I can't believe the progress I've made since I started watching your videos. Not only am I learning new skills, I also have a genuine comprehension of these skills. Thank you so much!
Great! Keep it up!
Guitarzoom
Steve, you just saved me some serious $ in lessons! Well spoken, clear explanations, keeping it manageable. You're a solid teacher!, thank-you for posting - pure gold!
By the way, there IS such a thing as a B# and an E#... The scale of C# sharp consists of the notes C# - D# - E# - F# - G# - A# - B#...
+Iwan van de Weer It could be so confusing (even counterproductive) for someone who just starting to learn music theory that all tones relativize with sharps and flats on the very beginning! E#, B#, Cb, Fb are the next level.
+GuitarZoom.com C sharp is only noted that way because a letter cannot be repeated when writing out scale. ie cannot have F and F sharp notated. Is this correct Steve?
Exactly Vincenzu Palermitanu. You HAVE to use every note of, let's say, the C major scale seperately. This is also why a scale will never have sharps and flats at the same time. So it's: C major /A minor: no flats or sharps, G major/E minor: 1 sharp, D major/B minor: 2 sharps, A major/F# minor: 3 sharps, E major/C# minor: 4 sharps, B major/G# minor: 5 sharps, F# major/D# minor: 6 sharps, C# major/A# minor: 7 sharps, so here every note of the C major scale gets a sharp (also E# and B#).
Then we've got F major/D minor: 1 flat, B flat major/G minor: 2 flats, E flat major/C minor: 3 flats: A flat major/F minor: 4 flats, D flat major/B flat minor: 5 flats, G flat major/E flat minor: 6 flats, C flat major/A flat minor: 7 flats, where again every note of the C major scale gets a flat.
+GuitarZoom.com excellent observation/instruction
+Iwan van de Were why are you watching this? Obviously above this.
Ahhh knowledge.
Been teaching myself guitar for 8 years now without knowing theory because I couldn't learn it the traditional way. You are making it very approachable for me, subscribed!
You are a very nice and polite person,and a very patient,and professional guitarist and instructor. Thanks.
I'm confused, where's the H#?
+brigham2250 If there would be a note called H then H sharp would be half step lower than I, or the same as I flat. "Elementary my dear Watson".
Maria Bethania Cabrera Ah, and so the case of the missing musical notes is solved. Holmes, how do you do it?
That'd technically be an A# or Bflat
+brigham2250 5th string bruh
+brigham2250 It's at the 27th fret.
Best teacher I've experienced regarding music theory. I am not a beginner but am always reviewing guitar theory and up til now have been dissatisfied with the on-hands and UA-cam teachers. Thanks again. I will continue your lessons!
I've been playing for over 30 years and listened to tons of teachers. You have one of the best attitudes I've ever seen. Thanks for the lesson, I'll be signing up for many more.
Best teacher I've seen on this topic. Thanks for the reinforcement!
I'm a very late bloomer in the world of guitar. I'm 57 and this video gave me the "aha" moment that will propel me further. You're a very good instructor, highly articulate. Thanks for doing this!
I have been playing since 1979. I am sure I am not the only one who goes back to the basics occasionally and learns something new. I watched several, and will watch more, and gotta say, I learned more than a little that I missed before.
I am asked for lessons all the time, and have passed out the basics, but have skipped a lot that you haven't. These will come in handy in the future and I already shared them with a few. I have no idea where those down thumbs came from, but they don't fit your lessons. Good job.
I recall, when I was younger, I just wanted to learn what I liked. Not having good foundations in how scales and chords work together, well, the outcome was less than perfect. Now I am learning new songs weekly, and not songs I know. Many times a song will come into the live set that I have never played. The things you are teaching will be the tools a guitar player has to have to accomplish this job without embarrassment. A professional player doesn't get to say, "I don't like that song" or "I don't know that song". He has to make it happen.
Now, whether I personally am making that happen, maybe, most of the time. The more you know, the better your chances are going to be. These will give a player the tools to get it done...
The glowing comments on this video really demonstrate the importance and rarity of a great teacher...
Instant sub...
I cant believe how easy youve just made that. Infact I watched it twice just to make sure I had it right. Wish id known this 30 years ago. Definitely a new fan.
IMO, the young man is a very thorough and well spoken teacher. I am a student, sort of, and learned a lot from Him, in minutes. Kudo's Respect Sir.
Hey man I'm a recent disabled combat vet with three teenage boys lol. Thanks for the free lessons. Simply cant afford the quality you offer... thank you
best guitar instructor on youtube without a doubt. The way I memorized the fretboard was by pairing two notes together, say G and A, and then play them from the 6th string down to the 1st.
Man, I took music theory for two years in college, and this guy makes it waaay easier to understand it. Should've just started with his vids
