I have learned the pentatonic shapes, thanks to you. So, now, no matter the key, I can comfortably play a break..:) it has added so much more fun to the whole thing. Thank you!
@@MjMurphy777 it makes every song like clay, you can form it and twist and change it every time you play it, you can play it with other people, it really changes everything. I’m very happy you have gotten to this level in playing, it is life altering.
I am so grateful that you cross reference your other videos when you post newer ones! Wow! This was fantastic! I would never have found it had you not mentioned it in another video. You're a wonderful teacher, Tyler! I love your analogies: "It's the patty in your burger"!
Hahaha, thanks! I have a friend named Calvin and one time we were driving around in high school. He is the younger brother of my buddy Grant, so he was maybe a sophomore and we were seniors and he almost wet his pants laughing at some analogy I made and I remember thinking “ya know, maybe there is some power to this” who knew!
Hi Tyler, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all these music theory lessons for the uku! I am embarking on my music theory journey and your lessons and teachings are so helpful!
Great leason!! Always learn something new with tenthumbs. Love the song lessons you do but find the blues and technical lessons very helpful too to become a better player. Did you wear your shark tshirt to put jaws in there? My analogy.. it is the cheese on those cheesy chips! 😉
This one is super important, hopefully it also added some clarity about add9 vs the sus2 chords. Every chord has a formula, the tricky part is when the chords are Am13 or D9 and you have to know what the intervals are an octave above as well.
It took me a good year to figure it out! I am sure you will learn it faster than I did. Just think of it as a unit of measurement. The distance from my house to your house is 10 miles, the distance from C to D is a 2nd interval. The other point that is very important to remember is all measurements are relative. So you need a starting point as a point of reference. The distance from Chicago to Detroit is 300 miles, but Chicago is a fixed point of reference, from Kalamazoo to Detroit it is 150 miles, so you need a fixed point to start with and once you have a landing point you count how many frets and that quantity will equal a specific interval. 1 fret b2nd 2 frets 2nd 3 frets b3rd 4 frets 3rd 5 frets 4th 6 frets b5th 7 frets 5th 8 frets b6th 9 frets 6th 10 frets b7th 11 frets 7th 12 frets 8th, the octave, where the notes restart
sir at 10:00 you're teaching the Dorian not the natural minor it's good that people will know the dorian but it is not the one I think you wanted to teach...
Whoops, I misspoke, to get the intervals past the octave is it is the interval plus seven. So the the 9th interval is the 2nd interval plus an octave. So the 9th interval is the D note an octave above the 2nd. That works for all of them, for example the 11th is the 4th interval an octave above the 4th (7+4=11) that also works with the sharps and flats. The b13 for example is the b6th an octave above the b6th (6+7=13, but because flat it is b13th.) Hopefully that helps, sorry for the big brain fart.
Guitar players always talk about gaged playing , cords, system......Does ukulele have a gaged system? Can you address that in a future ukulele tutorial?

1) rhythm (strum pattern)
2) harmony (chords)
3) melody (part you sing usually)
Exactly
I'm getting my Uke today so I'll definitely be watching your videos and checking out your website.
Exciting!
@@TenThumbsProductions I'm very excited!
You've explained it so nicely. Thanks. My love😍😍😘
Happy to help you friend! Thank you for your support!
thanks for your lessons,student from China
... VERY HELPFUL ! ! !
Thanks for sharing!
Happy you dug it!
@@TenThumbsProductions ... 👍👍👍...

It was a total coincidence but I laughed really hard during editing.

HEY KING, YOU DROPPED THIS 👑
also yea I don’t have an attention span thingy mod
Hahaha, gotta rent one man!
Just watched this. 🥺🥴🤯 It's gonna take a while for this to make sense to me. Drinking from the fire hose.

I'll have a gander, thanks. What did I do? Teach the scale with the 6th instead of the flat 6th?
@@TenThumbsProductions yes :)
@@emmanuelwynkoop5332 Whoops, darn flat 6th!!!

lol
A ninth is two plus eight???😊

We have touched on it before in a video, I forgot what we called the video, but the for the Ukulele it is CAGFD
TenThumbs Productions Thank you. I will look again for it.
ya fucking lost me bro...
