I saw the green glass bottleneck and the heavy coat in the thumbnail and knew that things were serious. Without describing the CAGED system in a comment I'd say your system is congruent with an earlier Homeskoolin description you made about seeing the neck as overlapping keyboards of sorts. Your system is very triad focused instead of based on the octave shapes of the C A G E and D chords. Instead of prioritizing the neck into ranges of frets you are prioritizing triad shapes on string groups. It's all music and your system can fit into a CAGED perspective but might be more harmonic rather than coordinates driven. Your system kind of slices the bread lengthwise. Of course in a world of White Mountain bread there is no lengthwise. Put a little Kerry Gold on it and it should be awesome.
Hahaaaaaaaaa
plus a little of the green anti-freeze.
UNCLE TOMMY!!! THAT WEIRD MAN MADE MY HEAD HURT!
Kerry Gold WILL complete your white mnt bread for sure Uncle Larry....life changing!
Yep, it's a variation of the CAGED system which was/is a variation of the Howard Roberts methodology that this old fart was schooled in back in the early 80's. I'd gone as far as I could until I took lessons with a new instructor that opened my mind to this stuff. Without these chordal approaches learning how to master the fretboard becomes much harder, much harder indeed. ;)
Every time I stumble onto one of your vids, within two minutes I’m itching to play.
It's infectious..😂 Too bad we don't all sound like Tom bukovac when we pick up a guitar.. there's only one
Connecting basic Triads & Inversions w/ simple 2-3 note melodies = Everything. Such a fundamental lesson brother. Great to see you preach this!
Glad I studied Jazz (and know theory) even though I'm not really a pure jazz player.
I think the key here is you have to learn the fretboard using the fretboard. Work out all the inversions for a key, build on this with maj/min 3 and 7. Know where your 2 and 6 are for passing tension.
Anyone reading these comments go subscribe to Michael’s channel if your not already sub’d he does wicked breakdown / reaction videos
Michael. You and little Tommy here, are my favourite music teachers. Thanks for everything you do
Got a link to these please?@@TJjjjjjjjjjj
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that all beginners should learn triads/inversions before the full bar chords. Such a logical and useful exercise.
If only traditional teachers would teach that way.
@glenn - can you recommend a video or course I should look into on learning triads/inversions. I started playing 3 months ago and most of Buk's stuff goes over my head but I watch anyway to see what I absorb for later. Thanks
@@SeanAllocca hey, Sean. On UA-cam, a site called Justin Guitar gets a lot of love, but if you type something like 'using triads on guitar' into UA-cam, you'll get plenty of results. As always, watch through a handful and ignore the ones you don't like. Good luck.
ua-cam.com/video/BvD1yoWfis4/v-deo.html
So should I ignore my teacher and learn triads instead of bar chords? I havent been playing long and although I love tom he talks about things I dont understand 😂
@@robertpickering641 hey, Robert, have a chat with him/her about triads. I'm sure he/she will be happy to put a lesson together for you to practice at home. When you get your head around the idea, it simplifies the way you play chords (especially if you're looking to play rock/pop etc, though, if you're learning classical music, you might want to stick with the full bar chords)
The greatest guitar content on UA-cam or anywhere else
Just greatest content in general hahaha
Every man has his opinion. Although it is great, there are others also. Just as long as it’s not a stupid meme guitar channel.
Root, 3rd, 5th...root, 3rd, 5th...all over the fretboard. Got some skoolin' to do. I love these videos. No other vibe like this. Thanks Tom.
Uncle Larry, the most important thing I learned in this video is when your wife burst open the door and threw the box and you apologized. Thats how to keep the wife happy. Thanks man, the guitar stuff is cool too.
@@exactopposite hahaha
@@exactopposite So true! It's what she asked him to do while he was lying in bed thinking through these concepts..
@@randerson2842 Funny I was picturing his wife asking him to take out the garbage and him say "yeah yeah for sure I'll do that" and his face being zoned out with quantum guitar physics going on in the brain hahaha.
Secret to a happy life and life long marriage right there. So true lol that was a great moment.
Hahaha THIS!
With the "your Beatle chord" and "your Hendrix chord" insights-you may not realize it when you point out seemingly innocuous things like this, but these are the morsels that keep me coming back more than anything. It may seem like pointing out the obvious to somebody with a keenly developed ear such as yourself, but it somewhat de-obfuscates my neural pathways when understanding musical concepts when you word them. Thank you for coming into my life at such a malleable time in my musical career. You're the best, Tom.
Thanks bro very kind words
Oh man, this is serious GOLD.
I am 46 years old, I have been playing since I was 15, for the first time these inversions were explained in a way I could get my head around it. Thanks Uncle Larry!!
I COULD GET USED TO A DAILY DOSE OF THIS...
This is the best lesson ever..... Will bring a lot of us to the next level.
Hey Tom, it took me about 2-1/2 months to finally get current with your vids. Seen every one, I think. I'm a 64 year old non-pro playing for 50 years. Love everything you've been so kind to show us, I'm just a little pissed it couldn't have been 40 years ago! God bless you for what you're doing... Home Skoolin' is ALWAYS the high point of my day! You are a gift.
I'm sitting here watching this in the middle of the night and when your wife threw the boxes, I just about had a heart attack!
I always love the look over the shoulder to see if anyone's coming, this show is classic !!
My mind opened like a coconut. There was only water inside but now I can fill it with all the inversions of the open chords, or as You call them, cowboy chords. Thank you Uncle Larry, one of the best lessons so far, a gem of information condensed into a small and nice no-bullshit video!
oh, now is daily. Thank god for the snow eheh
He wants to get to 100.. good stuff
Worth saying here Tom, you have probably just unlocked allot of doors for people here man! Thanks again dude!
Caged. All the shapes, their inversions. Great way to learn the board.
Yep! These are the sorts of things that the advancing guitarists need! It is priceless that we have your library to call on any time. Man, can’t thank you enough!
Your alright for a whiteboy
Thank you for the videos!!
C chord 1st position
A shape C chord 3rd position
G shape C chord 5th position
E shape C chord 8th position
D shape C chord 12 position
Spells CAGED and is really really useful:)
Cheers!
Solid gold!
Thank you!
Thanks Tom! Your lessons are always great!
You are something else ! Please keep these coming !
Thanks Tom!! Super helpful tip!
Excellent. Many thanks!
Thanks for all vids. Love your style.
Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. They’re incredibly helpful and inspiring. Cheers! 🍻
This is invaluable!! Thank you Dr Buk!
Love this! Keep up the amazing work.God bless
Thank you sir for doing this!
Stellar lesson! Thanks so much!
This is mind blowing! Thanks Buk!
Thanks for linking it up Tommy
Man. This was soo great
That's a very helpful lesson, Tom. Thank you. Much appreciated.
Very inspiring! The conversations you have with us through the fretboard are riveting, interesting, and new each time. And that makes us want to keep listening and learning. Very appreciative !
Thanks for taking the time to put this one together for us. You have mentioned in past videos the importance of knowing these chord shapes/ideas all over the fretboard and I really appreciate you breaking this concept down even further for us. I watch all your videos and always take away something that I can either apply to my playing or work into my practice... not to mention getting to listen to your awesome playing!
this is a bloody great video Mr Bukovac,cheers.
Great lesson!!! Great teacher!!
Love when you discuss the basics. It's inspiring to see how you still use those everytime you play.
Awesome lesson - Thank You!
love it...thanks!!!
Beautiful thank you!
Thank you thank you thank you soooo much for this.
The benefits are endless! Makes perfect sense. Thanks again Tom!
That is a very helpfull video👍thanks. Love you playing!
I can't keep up with all these fantastic videos! Yes, you got your beer & inspiration back!
Thank you Tom! much appreciation🎸
Thanks Tio..I needed this
Made some serious tone investments this past week because of you and your playing. Truly inspiring stuff dude. Thank you.
you’re one of the few that, any time i see you share these gold nuggets i just wanna grab a guitar rightaway
You are amazing, thank you for inspiring us to be better with your videos. Best regards from Portugal my friend!
Oh my, Uncle Larry. Day after day. Bringing us all up. Cheers, man. Love to you & yours.
very helpful stuff today, Tom. I am learning to think about the fret board in new and interesting ways! Thank-you! Love it.
One of your best episodes. A lifetime of study can be done over this topic!
Greetings from Memphis. Sounding awesome. Glad you restocked on some special sauce. This was an awesome lesson.
Thanks Tom. This is what I was practicing today in a roundabout way. My playing is slowly but surely opening up as I always come away from your videos having learned something ,and on this one it just reinforced was i was thinking today when playing these various triads. top lesson .many thanks .You rock man
That makes much sense. Thanks for this.
Great lesson Tom! Thanks
Thank you for sharing your knowledge🤘🏻
Best lesson you've done. By far. Thanks for taking time out of your day to show us mortals a peek behind the curtain that is Uncle Larry.
love it thanks
Awesome video Tom, hope you and your family are staying warm!
Just about everything you noodle around with is inspiring and gives me ideas for a song.
You and I have the same way around the neck searching for those phrases and melodies that sound new and unique.
Tim Pierce once sent me to your channel, I'm glad I did! Rock On!
Tom! I’ve finally caught up to present you.. I found out about you early January and just non stop bingeing your episodes. You have moved my inspiration to another level.. I’ve only been playing for 8 months but man you push me to work hard everyday on this instrument! Thank you 🙏
That may have been the most important lesson you’ve done. Gotta learn those triads to be able to navigate the fretboard. Thanks for all the posts!!
Thanx Tom. I knew I need to learn these, just been postponing for 10 years or so.
you sir are a special dude!!! inversion made SIMPLE... stroke of genius man!! thanks immensely!
This is the most important lesson. Thanks
Oh this is gold. Thank you uncle Larry!
Great tips man!!! Love it!!!
Great ideas! Great lesson!
But more importantly, I'm glad to see you folks are doing well. Stay warm and be safe!
best lesson I've ever had..been playin live for 40 years..thanks.
As someone who just plays each day to unwind, rather than actively improve - this is a huge eye opener. Thank you for this and all of these videos. Been one of my favorite things I've stumbled across.
Great video. You are the master. Thank you Uncle Larry.
Another amazing eye opener from Uncle Larry!!
Thanks for sharing Tom! I knew about this but you made me realize how important it is and that I also need to know it on all the strings besides the first three going up! Thanks!!
“Having this stroke of genius with somebody else’s idea”
You’re a genius my brother 😜
Love it. I've been trying to explain this to a friend learning. Thanks for helping me out! 😁
These things are so important. Knowing your inversions up/down the neck is a fantastic tool for variation in comping and as a base for soloing. Great vid!
Buk! This so great! From the very beginnings of these carona lessons I have been progressing towards exactly this! So great. Indeed, this lesson is important. Thanks man!
Hey Tom, that's been THE lesson! That's what really opens up the guitar. Thanks for sharing and schoolin' !!
This is without a doubt the most valuable lesson you have shared to date, and I will definitely be spending a lot of time coming back to this video, guitar in hand and getting this learned inside out... You are a genius, not only for seeing the fretboard this way, but for the way you explained it... Your clarity of thought on this was written all over your face throughout, a bit like Neo when he figured out the Matrix at the end of the first movie! You sir are pure class! Thank you so much for this! 😊😊😊👍🤘👍
Great stuff!
Im all over this 👍 Thanks man Gr8 lesson 🍻
New fan. I love your approach. Thanks for the inspiration
Tom! awesome video, mucho thanks for this one. Both my Tele and I thank you.
Thanks for sharing this
Thanks .. that was the piece of the puzzle I was looking for. Your explanation and break down makes perfect sense. Back to the garage I go..🎸🎸🎸
Good stuff, Tom. Thx
Thank you for sharing Uncle Larry
Always good stuff man!
Man!! You don't have to be asking for forgiveness!!! You're an incredible teacher and musician sharing your approach to the instrument and giving all of us so many great tips and sources of inspiration!!!! I Thank you so much for all you have been giving us.
Really good - thanks!
Great lesson. Thanks for sharing. Stay warm
Yes. That actually makes a ton of sense. Super helpful to me to know the fundamentals you’re building off of so to speak. Thanks!
Another great lesson Sir! I greatly appreciate it! I've been playing by ear and "playing with others who don't know music theory" for about 8 years now, and this has really opened up a bunch of possibilities for me. Thanks again, from a fellow music lover.
Great lesson today. Cheers.
Seriously, this is one of the absolute best spots for chillin and soaking up guitar. THANK YOU!!! It's cold in Columbia, south of you BTW :-)
