Guthrie Trapp
Im going to watch this video 124 times or until I dont need to anymore.
Finally I’m understanding the relationship between the scales and chords! I’m 60 and thought I had a learning disability when it came to understanding the neck.
This video has been my breakthrough!
Uncle Larry sent me.
Guthrie, it was four years ago that I flew out for two hours of immersive instruction. Your understanding of the fingerboard is so broad, and your ability to share so unique, that it helped me turn a corner. Thank you again!
I now see the fretboard more easily as I look for the triads and notice the pentatonic scales all around them. Why didn't I learn this so many years ago or was taught it by my teachers? It would have made my guitar journey so much better/quicker. Cheers to you Guthrie for teaching all of us this lesson.
Same thing with me, i had multiple teachers when i was young. No one talkee about triads or intervals or playing advanced chords or even the things you need to know when playing in a band
Exactly and I just wrote a bit about it before I read your post. He connects with other players as easy as he plays those tasty creations like he opened this video with. Truly a gift to all of us guitarists.
Same story, different player.
Me too man!
I think this is the best lesson on connecting the triad chord shapes with the pentatonics.
Hands down, the best lesson you've ever posted. You're learning how to teach this stuff . . . and it's amazing! From us mere mortals, thank you for breaking it down!
I'm glad you said that penta-peggio idea. I learned a similar lick and its interesting how much more country it sounds when you leave the minor 6 out when you're on ascending but it still sounds country when you use it when you're descending. I'mma use this as a quick way to add that country flavor. thanks!
Awesome! You’re my favorite teacher. You’re a gift from God man.
People don't realise that the way to get better is to go back to the beginning and add to the song thanks for your kindness and generosity I hope you keep this up like what someone said today that the older tunes are so good like real music 🎶
Ladies,and,gentlemen i will say it again,you are witnessing the best guitar player in the world yes i said it,and i stand firm on my word,the way Gunthrie can just freestyle on the guitar and sound so beautiful and melodic on the fly every single video over,and over again just blows my mind,Guthrie you continue to inspire all of us,thank you for all of your amazing stories,and really teaching us how to really jam.and sound amazing,on the guitar,have a safe and awesome trip cheers.
Sorry for the misspelling of your name,at the beginning of the comment.
That D shape triad is a real eye opener. I never realized the lower part of that shape is there. Thanks!
That intro was next level man
Thanks Guthrie. Cracking as ever. Man IN STEREO is going to be a killer
You killed it Guthrie.awesome lesson
Great, GREAT lesson Guthrie! Can’t wait to sit down with my guitar and this video!
I can see through your soul man. With all your issues, you’re just you. There’s something real(or genuine) about you. Something sweet that shows even in your passion to give to others you’re much valued skill and tips. And you teach so effortlessly it’s beautiful.
Thank you Guthrie!
Super lesson... you just helped me to fit another piece into the puzzle! Awesome thanks... now off to hunt down your phrasing exercise!!!
Holy $#!+ I've had this shown to me a hundred different ways and I never got it. Then UA-cam recommends this video and in 10 minutes I FINALLY GET IT! Thank you so very much, this is so simple but perfectly explained. Huge appreciation to you.
This is probably the clearest, most immediately useful lesson I've seen. Ties it all together. Thanks Guthrie!
Pentapeggio gold as always GT....thanks so much brother. Have a great break in Miami Beach....would love to visit some day. Can't wait for the new album man!!
Always interesting, never boring. Much respect Guthrie...
Guthrie, been following you since the early early jam play days. Really happy for your success. Cheers
Great lesson Guthrie. Also hope you guys have a fun and safe trip ☀️⛱️🏝️🍹🍷
Love you, GT! Thanks for all you do and have a killer trip!
Always joyful experience watching your posts. Looking forward to the album too.
GT Wow man that was the best lesson I've seen on these connections! I play Alt country, Roots music and this my friend is gonna take me to higher ground. Thank you for sharing this and I hope to meet you in person in Nashville soon. You Rock!!
Man Guthrie, I get so much out of your quick hits here on YT....really appreciate the info on the CAGED approach, it's been so helpful, really love the content and CANNOT WAIT for the record w/Uncle Larry....keep it coming!!
Once again , your quick lesson grab is right on what I been trying to familiarise after brain balling triads. Just trying to link pentatonics with triads over 1 4 5 to begin with.
Connect it all and get musical.
Makes sense in the head , no substitute for time to get it under the fingers and map it out .
Thanks again
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and knowledge. I’m so busy in retirement I don’t know how I ever managed a career and raising a family! When you share these mini lessons I am able to use what I learned in your master class and immediately grasp it. You have really helped me unlock some of the mysteries of the fretboard!
That’s so freaking brilliant yet so simple. I don’t know how I overlooked it for the past 30 years!!!
I will have to check out some of your videos on CAGED to see if it all starts to finally click for me! I've never understood how to incorporate the D-shape chord from CAGED, but the way you showed it in this video, not using the 3rd on the high E string, but instead putting the 3rd in the low E string and doing that spread voicing inversion of the chord, it all started to finally make sense how I can incorporate the D-shape into my playing naturally! Thanks for a great video.
This!!!! Guthrie what a great lesson. Thank you sir! Enjoy your time away.
Thank you Guthrie 💯😊
fantastic. thanks for helping us make these connetions.
You're awesome GT!!!
Wow GT! You go from the village to little Havana! In a month or so Ha!
And you still have time to throw us a lesson. What a fantastic drill to learn the fretboard. The little blues tune you played in the beginning, motivated the shit out of me.
One last thing I don’t know if anybody said this before, but if you ever get old and strapped for cash, you could always write a book!
From an Alabama pirate to a world-class musician, who is definitely underrated for his talent.
Personally, I stop what I’m doing just to catch some of it. Thanks for that sure, as hell picks me up.
Ps. The book would be a best seller. Hard travelin!🎸❤️
Another awesome lesson, looking forward to the Uncle Larry CD.
Mr. Trapp, usually with your youtube lessons you zoom by so fast I can't keep up or understand. But this lesson, by golly you went nice and slow and methodically, which suited my needs perfectly. I learned so much today. It's all coming together, thank you. More lessons like this please and enjoy your vacation.
As usual, another way to look at chords and pentatonics. Thanx!
I'm excited also thank you guys ❤😎
Thanks Guthrie. Very good. Enjoy your trip.
This is golden!
Another damn amazing video. Thank you for walking through these steps slowly.
Wonderful help. Thank you.
Thanks GT. Gonna chew on this for a while. Have a blast in Florida!
With Love from Russia! Thank you, Gathrie!
Thanks Guthrie, I keep smacking my head with your lessons and getting a better understanding ......Smack by smack.
That move at 11:30 mark is so beautiful.
brilliant lesson - I also like to use the blue note slide from the min-maj 3rd
Pentatonic boxes 1-5 are major chord shapes GEDCA, in that order.
Guthrie once said to know the melody, chords that build it and all of the information around each chord on the fingerboard. This lesson falls right in line with that. Result? I have naturally "discovered" this pentapeggio Guthrie speaks of and demonstrates at 11:02 and it has expanded the quality of material I cover. I've been gigging around 32 years BUT... Guthrie's ability to connect and teach has helped me stay out of playing ruts that can be so easy to fall into. I then feel empowered to play more which leads to better technique and that expands creativity. Exciting news about the album and pumped for his shows at The Bitter End in NYC in less than 2 weeks!!!
Opening groove was shades of Geoff Muldaur and his take on Wild Ox Moan.... 🎸🔥
You got a mine gold here your opening playing is masterclass lesson in it self
Thanks for giving us insomniacs something to do... Great as always, Have fun in da sun !!
Oh damn that was an eye opener thank you!
Guthrie great player caged theory seems like the way since evetrhings is chord based shifting in right area makes it smooth transition god bless guthrie thanks
Just ran into your video, looking forward to learning some stuff from it, became a fan just from this video! Hope you had/have a great time in Miami Beach... not what it used to be but hope you enjoy it nevertheless. Looking forward to more content from you. God bless you.
I always hear my girl when someone goes through a major .
Don't forget to take that left turn at Albuquerque!
Lol. at 8:53" I kind of felt like you wanted to add "...dumb ass!" And as I was watching I went "Huh, well aint that some shit..." Excellent pointers, thank you 🙂
You're a cool Dude brother and you know your stuff. Thanks for posting this, it's so important to all us . Have yourself a great trip to Florida. We'll be thinking of you as we're shoveling snow this weekend in Canada. 😅. Love and peace!!!
Hey thanks so much for everything you do man it means the world to me. Also, if you want a chill Cuban seafood spot that’s been around forever in Miami, the go to Garcias. Grilled lobster, stone crab, fish sandwiches and fair prices. It’s downtown but close to south beach and right on the river. My favorite place in the city. Plus J Wakefield brewery is close to there.
Great lesson thank you. I see you put the D shape 3rd in the bass. Have a good VC
The reason the pentatonic works is because it hits the chord tones. Awesome video
It just sounds boring if you don't add in the other notes to it
Enjoy your Florida trip! Safe Travels! Shoot us some video when the time permits! 👍🎸✌️😎
So good. So helpful. Thank you.
Excellent exercise! Thanks!
I had chicken and mushroom pentapaggio for dinner the other day. Delicious with a nice Chianti.
Oh man, your rig sounds so good there. You could take that rig anywhere real music is playing and you would sound top-notch.
Great shoutout to my old friend Bruce Bouton.✔️ Play on…..
“Pentapaggio” sounds like the most delicious pizza I’ve never had, with guitar ambiance of course.
Badass
That's could be the new name of the Trio, Guthrie Trapp and the Pentapeggios!
Pentapeggio!
Life changing🎉
I sure like your pickin and lessons
The noodling you did at the first part of the Video, the part where you anchored your hand in the " A" position, and then used your other fingers to noodle around. I used to able to do that- until I broke my left wrist so bad I had to have surgery and they had to put 12 screws in my left hand and wrist. Now I cant do that for the life of me...vary depressing because I LOVE to play the guitar. The point- never take for granted what you have...because you just never know when fate will change your life.....Eric C. and Robert Cray wrote a great blues song that included using that favorite chord of yours. The song is called Old Love, its the same chord except its in the "G" position in lieu of the " A" position. Thats the only song I know of, that uses that chord you love...Please make sure and tell us all the name of your's and (Uncle Larry's) new record so we can listen to it !
Pure gold, as always, thank you! Reminded me - do you think you could do a short video/explanation of how you'd solo over the changes in "Hey Joe?" I'd love to see your melodic approach!
Hey GT, thanks for more great content! Enjoy Miami, and when you get back would you consider giving us some insight into your amazing right hand technique? Your left hand is off the charts (and that is obvious) but your right hand is every bit as astounding (but perhaps less obvious)! Just an idea, thanks!!!
Glad you’re coming to my city, Miami! Get your butt to Versailles restaurant on 8th street for the most authentic Cuban food…not that tourist crap on the beach.
Killer!! Will do! Thanks!
Come to
Scotland Guthrie!!! 🏴🏴🏴
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Guthrie. Do your Truefire and Artist Works courses teach this information in detail. Which would you recommend.
Is that into the chords for Nobody's Fault But Mine ?? Very cool.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
You going to Miami for Spring Break ? Good luck. 😂✌️
Wish them luck .. not me. I’ve broken a few springs in my day.. 😎
1:57
Miami is my backyard. I’ll ask my Cuban musicians where are some hot spots for live music.
Hey man, what are your favorite top 3 turnarounds? That might make a cool segment.
Cheers.
Next uncle Larry record should be called “cooking and omelette and dribbling a basketball”
Welcome to south Florida!! Let me know if you need some recommendations
Thanks, man! Will always take some good recommendations!
👌
Like cookin an omelette!
I think Robin Ford is looking for that sound. Lol.
Robben :)
took your Artist works course for a year. Learned more on this lesson. Do you think the Jack Ruch triads courses are worth it ???
Work amp and effects on this one? Those Danocasters sound awesome!
Are you speaking in caged?
Edit: And just as I say that, you answered my question. I’m having to translate out of caged and into normal speak.
Good lesson. 🤙🏼
The thing I find confusing about major and minor pentatonic is that major has the 2nd and 6th...1,2,3,5,6 yet minor has the 4 and flat 7..1,b3,4,5,b7. it's like it's not it's own scale but more major and minor pentatonic are modes of each other Im kinda lazy so I usually find myself playing the Dickie betz pentatonic which is like a mixolydian or dominant pentatonic 1,3,4,5,b7.. you can also play a version of a major pentatonic that's 1,3,4,5,7... When I play a hybrid scale, I see it in the mibor pentatonic shape. I admit though that my approach is very limiting I'm stuck to that 1st position minor pentatonic shape. I really need to soak this lesson in.. Im very familiar with the caged but I'm not really grasping how the pentatonic is in the caged shapes .. I will get this down though. Great lesson
😮😮😮❤❤❤❤
Bad to the bone cat!
Guthrie, does the same technique work for the minor pentatonic scale? -Guitar Eddie
Why do you hardly use the bridge pup?
I use it all the time. Maybe check out some of my trio clips sometime 👍
