  • Definitely take a look the masterclass I made with Ian on how to start jamming on guitar:
    www.udemy.com/course/how-to-j...
    Going over the very simplest way to start thinking about playing lead or writing solos. Just simplify what chord you're playing over and find out where those notes exist on other parts of the neck. Simple, varied chord voicings and scales are all you need!

    A little about me:
    Sean Daniel is a man. A man of simple needs and desires. And the one desire, no, the one NEED, that stands above all is to spread the challenges, joy and intellectual stimulus of music to people of Earth and beyond.
    Born on the mean streets of upper middle class suburban Chicago, Sean learned the ways of the world through the dizzying heights of success to the lonesome depths of failure and emerged with the promise of a better tomorrow reflecting in his eyes and fiery passion in his belly.
    He plays and teaches guitar on his UA-cam channel where he regularly releases original music and projects to the adulation of legions of fans, who often compare him to Chris Pratt and one time Ryan Reynolds. He’s currently in the market for a nice leather jacket.

    Sean probably some the best lessons I have found on UA-cam. I’m a retired NYPD Sergeant who has picked up guitar at age 57. Smaller hands but I’m practicing at least 1 hour a day or more for the last 5 months. I have Epiphone les Paul custom pro, a LTD KH602 and a Yamaha Acoustic. 5150 EVH 40w tube amp. So keep up the great work making my journey easier

      ⁠@@swordfire7771it’s never too late! Probably easy for me to say at 16 after already playing for 5 years, but honestly learning guitar is one of the best things you can do, and it feels so bloody rewarding once you start actually being able to play and put things together, you should definitely give it a go!

      Man look these dudes make money from idiots who are desperate to play guitar is easy once you learn the basics and the with power chords you can play any song but it will take practice obviously and anyone can shred decently but what's important and what's really cool about guitar is it doesn't matter what sounds good to other people it's what sounds good to you how your playing makes you feel about it and how good it sounds

  • @GJHamann

    Good idea. Thinking in terms of 2 chords at a time helps to simplify. In a 1 4 5 progression as you move from the 1 -> 4 or 4 -> 5 or 5 to 1 focus on each pair if you know the song well. But, rely on the pentatonic or scale of the key if you are unfamiliar with the song structure.

    Another way to think of why the e minor shape works over the G chord is because it's the same as G major pentatonic. Same with the a minor over C chord cuz its C major pentatonic.

    For anyone to get anything out of this video, they'd have to know scales, the notes that make up each cord and the root notes, all the notes on the fretboard, scales, etc.. "The easiest way to start playing lead on guitar". You're a great guitar teacher...for advanced guitarists. I think what would help a lot would be if you started out your videos with a list of things you expect people to know already. And if someone knows all that already, they won't need your video.

    Made excellent sense. Which, considering a year ago that content would have gone straight over my head a crashed in flames taking hordes of innocent school children with it. Something I can now use to piece all the disjointed skills I've acquired together into a single concept. Cool Bananas.
    A question: I have a looper in my Boss GT-1, and amps for my electric in various flavours and strengths, I'm presuming you are looping into an amp, would that be an acoustic amp?
    One time - at band camp - I plugged my acoustic into a normal guitar amp and was almost blasted into orbit with the feedback.
