      Steve Stine Guitar Lessons I used to use the piano to make music I wouldn’t say I know “HOW” to play piano but I use it to make noice sounds, that’s what I’m trying. To learn on guitar and I’m trying to picture the top of the low e string all the way to the high e string to the bottom as like 1 string kinda like a piano

      Newbie here. So if i start with e minor on the 12th fret . Then go to D on the tenth fret. How do i know how to connect. Is this by ear or do i have to know the top note must match the bottom note? Sorry for the dumb question

  • @theryno85
    @theryno85 3 роки тому +248

    Another tool that has helped me tremendously, get a clip-on tuner and leave it on while you play. Watch it, see the note names, see how your fingering affects intonation and changes the notes ever so slightly. Use the tuner to dial in your bends and seeing note names as you play can really ingrain the theory into your head without even trying!

    This really helped me a lot. I’m self-taught, and I’ve been trying to get past this intermediate rut I’ve been in. Other UA-camrs give way too much information and confuse me, and others don’t give enough, and just advertise. So genuinely, thank you for your easy and explanatory lesson. 🤙🏽

    I stopped playing guitar about 2 decades ago. Im a self learner back then and I hit this wall. I couldn't make a solo, i dont know the theory, no music teacher to ask to, no you tube yet for quick reference, so I guess I just gave up. after 20 years, yesterday I bought an acoustic guitar, I guess my love for playin' is burried within my DNA. after playin' for a while (resting my fingers cause it hurts) I run accross your channel, and wow! I think I hit my "aha!" moment... now Im thinkin' to get an electric guitar again. thank you man!

    Steve, I'm 57 (this year), and have been noodling on a guitar since I was 14. In this video, I've picked up more useful information that has STUCK than in almost 40 years of self learning frustration.
    My time constraints at this stage of my life have me in planted in different tasks for most of my waking hours, and have forced me to place the axe in a hanger more than it is played. Since seeing this, I have a much renewed drive, and will be using your methodology to once again do something that I dearly love.
    For that; I sincerely thank you!
    🙏 🤘✌️

    Very helpful. I would really like to thank you (especially you - but also representing everyone else on YT) who explain this stuff to us and teach it for free. This is really something that brings me forward and helps to translate theory into practice. I think every more advanced ends at this point, but does not even know how to put the problem into words. So cool that cool musicians like you share your knowledge.
    All the best.

    Picked up a guitar a few weeks ago, and started playing again. First time since high school. I have been watching your videos on scale and theory, love them. Was trying to learn some blues licks last night and it all just clicked as to how to connect the positions. Still a work in progress, but I was able to meander across the fretboard for a solid 10 minutes. Really appreciate all that you do on here. Wish youtube was around when I was in highschool. Probably wouldnt have had all the frustration that caused me to give it up.

    Thanks man, I only recently started exploring the fretboard, and that relative major/minor stuff at the end totally opened my eyes. I was noodling in those positions but was confused as to what shape I was playing under and why it worked in certain keys, so what you showed there made so much sense to me. Thanks again Steve!

You never stop learning on the guitar even things you think you know inside out and upside down can reveal new hidden treasures if you look at them from a different standpoint. You're a good teacher and I think I'll watch more of your videos and maybe even take on a course. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

  • @MarkR973
    @MarkR973 5 років тому +59

    Steve.. I discovered today while studying c scale that when on a note anywhere on the fretboard that you can play the corresponding chord by applying the chord shape of the string name that note sits on at that spot.. you bar on that fret. For example.. at the 7th position.. the notes are B,E,A,D,F#,B... which sit on the E,A,D,G,B,E strings.. so.. if I wanna play a B chord at the 7th fret I simply put my bar there and apply the E chord form.. to play the E chord at the 7th fret I bar there and play the A chord form.. and so on... duh.. so easy now to play chords for the notes on the fretboard.. which basically serve as the root note of the chord.. woohoo!!! Learning.. sorry for the long comment I hope others can benefit from it.. hey everyone.. try it.. right the. Let’s down for each string then try what I said .. another example, 5th position/fret, A note sits on the E string.. so, bar the 5th position and play the E chord shape and u get the a chord, the D note sits on the A string at the 5th position so play the A chord form and you get a d chord musically.. ha! Damn! Enjoy all!!

    Howdy Steve .. Your emphasis on beginning slow and moving up through to faster tempos using a metronome when one "meanders" has been "so going back to re-learn or re-visit" years of not just approaching my solo processes but also moving between standard "root in the bass" box shape chords to actually seeing their alternate shapes to switch with ease into their inversions "with 3rd, 5th, etc in the bass" .. your meandering technique and the metronome .. PRICELESS!!!

    I had a great teacher we nick named Joe Bad. The first time I learned the pentatonic scale; I learned it on all twelve frets. After that the same pattern repeats itself. Off course there are notes in the scale you miss along the way but all you have to do is learn those notes later on the frets that you pass bye while running up or down the necks. In hind site I was lucky to have such a good teacher who from the start taught me to visualize and run up and down the fret board. Best thing to do is to learn to start at 1st fret for all seven notes a-g and run through until the same shape starts again.

  • @steveneagan3953

    The mode you're calling the "new first mode" IS already the 5th mode of the minor pentatonic scale. It's the tower mode. Well that's what I've heard it called anyways. There are only 5 petatonic modes. Once you learn those 5 modes you can go between boxes easily and open the fretboard. You could show how the G major pentatonic scale is the same as the E minor pentatonic scale. You use the same modes you just go from G to G instead of E to E. All keys have a built in major key to a minor key. Like A minor is C major. D minor is F major and so on. Idk what ppl other know. But that's what I was taught.

    Steve no words to thank you !
    I t was getting monotonous to play Pentatonic Scales up and down in the same place.
    I wanted to move out of it and play all over the place on the fret board. I tired it but it was never melodious as I was playing wherever I felt like ( sort of unguided notes ). You gave me the idea of how to go about it !
    Thanks once again Steve !

    Great video man, I've been playing for about 12 years now and always would want to stay in that same box because I didn't know how to venture out onto the fret board, I picked up that exercise and have been amazed that in 15 mins of playing around, I could make up my own solos and they actually went together, learned something in 15 mins that I've been trying to do for years, props to your teaching skills

    I’ve been searching thru UA-cam for weeks trying to find a real instructor. After a dozen or so mishaps I came across this vid and knew my search was over. Great lesson really explained simply and well. I’m looking forward to getting back into playing again now that I’ve found some real guidance. Great job.

    Great video and great instructor, I spent years noodling around, not really knowing what I was playing and what worked together properly. I decided to finally sit and spend some time learning what I need to know. This video alone has helped and inspired me to immerse myself even more in the theory side, 10/10.

    Hi I enjoyed and learn a lot here online from you and basically usiing acoustic guitar but start thinking now whether I should buy an electric as it is difficult to bend strings and produce sounds which are difficult to produce in acoustic. I thought you are on live tonight as I got facebook message.

  • @Groosome128
    @Groosome128 5 років тому +6

    So I guess the moving between the positions part basically means sliding or otherwise playing 3 notes on the string you're moving on... or even just picking when to move and play any of the notes in that next position. I need to spend some time on this :/
