Thank you for your comment, "Once you line up with how things work it opens massive opportunities and new information," because it also applies to life in general too. Great tutorial! Thanks Chris.
It's so simple! I was analyzing the different triad inversions for the bar chord format of A, literally trying to picture the inversions as dissected parts of the whole chord, knowing there was an easier way to "picture" them....but they way you explained.... just had a forehead slapping moment.
This UA-cam channel, and the man behind these lessons, is the reason I am no longer afraid of the guitar. I can now wander freely amongst frets and strings, and no longer feel totally lost. I have so much to learn still, but I thank you Chris for literally switching the lightbulb over the fretboard for me.
I'm bringing all your content at the moment. You have such a raw talent for clear instruction. I have been learning guitar for a couple years now and most of break throughs have happened since I discovered your channel.
Some great fills inside progressions and great progressions lead to this. Nice lesson. Recently you walked us through the triads on the entire neck. Now the specific inversions of them. Wait, are you teaching us this in order on purpose? Thanks Chris. Never miss a lesson.
Well, not specifically, but I am trying to connect dots here as much as I can and still keep each video able to stand on it's own. Glad you're enjoying this Kevin, thanks for being here!
I have to say Chris, your style and thoroughness makes you my go to teacher for guitar on youtube, thanks a lot man, you are a gift to the world of guitar lovers.
Hey chris, just wanted to let you know that your channel is criminally underrated. I love everything about it and especially the way you teach. Please keep going and never stop. Sending love
You’re welcome, Don. Inversions are fascinating to me, you can see them across sets of strings, or along them and depending on which way you look, they generate from different rules.
This is amazing , takes the pause to think out of the equation. Gona take some conscious effort but do able for sure. Another awesome step in becoming a better musician.
Hello Chris, I would like to ask you if you can make a video on proper guitar pick grip. I understand it is very subjective question and I don't think there is a "thats is answer", but I really would love to hear a word from you about that. Thank you for you videos and dedication on this chanel it is much appreciated and it is a huge help for a lot of people!
Excellent content. Really well thought-out instruction. I would really like to know your thoughts on internalising the various intervalic tensions without permanently relying on, for example, The Jaws Theme - ascending minor 2nd/Joy to the World - descending minor 2nd. If you have paid instruction on this, then I’d be more than happy to cough up the cash. All the best, good sir.
Mike, I don't have anything specifically like that about intervals, but what I will say, is that using them has been, for me, the most enduring way to internalize them. When I learned 6ths for example, I wrote two etudes right away to help "cement" them into my fingers, ears and brain. Without exception that method burns them in.
Thank you. It may seem silly to anyone who has only ever known UA-cam free content, but I kinda feel guilty having access to all this top-notch advice without paying a penny. I’ll do as you suggest. I really, really appreciate the help. Thank you.
Yes the electric version. I’ve been watching a lot of your videos lately and I love them. I think I’m on the edge of joining your patreon. I’ve never joined someone’s patreon but I might give it a try.
While your lessons and teaching are top notch, and I understand the theory behind inversions the problem is that I just cant see what you are doing well enough without some kind of visual aid programme on screen at the same time. I'm not meaning to rain on your parade,but simply trying to give my own constructive opinion.
Awesome guitar skills sir , subscribed you i need a little help if you can, I am a student from india and, i am also a music lover , and i also want to play and learn guitar but i can't afford one due to low financial condition of family ,help me with a little classic guitar, i don't want Money , just a little guitar to learn music.

You never cease to amaze me with your ability to explain your lessons where I immediately grasp it. Thank you so much!
You’re so welcome, Brian.
Thank you for your comment, "Once you line up with how things work it opens massive opportunities and new information," because it also applies to life in general too. Great tutorial! Thanks Chris.
That's my big secret, just using music as a metaphor for life...it gets really easy to understand that way.
It's so simple! I was analyzing the different triad inversions for the bar chord format of A, literally trying to picture the inversions as dissected parts of the whole chord, knowing there was an easier way to "picture" them....but they way you explained.... just had a forehead slapping moment.
Ha, don't slap your head too hard, you're still gonna need that for a while!
Chris, I don't know if anyone has ever mentioned it to you, but you're *really* good at this. Thank you for continuing to expand my horizons.
Wow, thank you. I really appreciate that sentiment. 🙏

Joe! You bet, happy to be here, doing this, and I so appreciate your support.
Funny thing about middle-school Geometry. You can't get to "rocket science" without it. Thanks for this important, foundational lesson, Chris!
Thanks Russell! Great context, I never thought of that, but it’s so true.
Hope all is well!

This is a fantastic idea Dean, thank you! I’ll get this on the list right away.
❤️@@curiousguitarist
Aha! Thank you!
Welcome!
Thank you for a great lesson. I had a small epiphany.
With epiphanies, size never matters :)
@@curiousguitarist😂
@@curiousguitarist is is true that you really have to know the caged system well to be able to invert chords?
@@maryk6780 nope, you can get a faster knowledge of inversion studying triads actually!
@@curiousguitarist thank you!! I will do that.
Hey do you do on line courses I need to learn some theory.
I do! Look for The Studio tier on Patreon, that's the way in!
Excellent content. Really well thought-out instruction.

Every time I hear your tone with that Les Paul I hear Machine Gun Man by Pride and Glory. Now I’m trying to learn that song.
Very cool tune! I assume you're learning the electric version, right?
Yes the electric version. I’ve been watching a lot of your videos lately and I love them. I think I’m on the edge of joining your patreon. I’ve never joined someone’s patreon but I might give it a try.
So can inversions be played over the original chord while in a jam?
Oh yeah they can! In fact thats one of the best uses, to get out of the other guys' way!!
Thanks, Johnny!
"Fleshy Abacus" _ Nice name for a band.
Take it before anyone else does!!!
