The best thing about Guthrie is he's so fluent, his choice of words compliments his choice of notes, like a science professor that you don't want to miss every lectures.
well said
Agree, funny because he actually studied English literature
That's exactly why I watch all of his videos! Great master, a true professor of the instrument.
he studied English lit at Oxford!
Man, you're spot on
Sir Guthrie Govan. It has a ring to it.
this comment will be loved by the masses..
one day..
Jkman ,
Visualize them . Look at the shape(s) on a diagram . Really visualize them . Visualize them until you really know it . Then go to the fretboard . Keep seeing the shapes as you play .
It's hand , eye and memory coordination .
It works .
Harry potter
I like it!

"hope that's helpful"
he could fart and i'd find it helpful
I was thinking the same thing xD strange !
Well... Farting in the right key is one thing, but TEACHING people to fart in the right key takes a whole other level of skills ! 😁
I practiced this all night and I now, legitimately, feel like I've become decet at soloing. I haven't felt this accomplished in so long
Blake Killganon Made me feel really happy haha
Really glad you feel so, buddy.
Peace to you.
Make a video and show us your skills.
I’M SO PROUD OF YOU !!!!!
Guthrie is a good man. This world needs more people like Guthrie.
Guthrie Govan is so fucking awesome!!! I watch this video preparing myself to watch some TV-series, but now all I want to do is pick up the guitar!!!!!!!
that happen to me all time :)
same here.
hahaha same story
All the time.
His voicing on guitar is unreal, is voice is so soothing, he should record some audiobooks!
So helpful and eloquently explained.
Glad it was helpful!
I love the concept lesson, rather than a lick lesson. My mind is breaking free of the boxes. Can't believe I went this long without knowing this legendary genius.
Guthrie was born to teach guitar.His demeanor is so nurturing and articulate I could just get a nice warm cup of my favorite coffee;just the right amount of cream,with slight touch of coconut palm sugar, sit with him,and take a lesson all day long...where were guitar teachers like this when I was starting out???
To break out of scales... First I need to break into scales.
At least you’re not breaking scales
Lol. Me too
Noooooo!
Learn the intervals rather than the patterns per se.
Damn, I wanted to post this comment.
I'm trying to break all of this down.
So far I've got...

Hello Cleveland
😅😅😅 I'm gonna have to slow this video down.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this guy is one of the most insightful and inspirational guitarrists i can think of. Never ceases to amaze me how easily he is able to teach, play, and understand guitar. a fucking genius
the subtle layla in the beginning was so cheeky
Thanks Mr. Govan!
This is actually a lot more like the way I learned (many years ago - before internet and youtube - all learning was ears and records). I quickly picked out the notes of the pentatonic scale (I had no idea it was called that until years later - I just thought of it as "the good notes") but I also somehow got the idea that the "goal" was to always play notes 2 frets apart, which forces you to cover at least 3 of the "boxes" at a time. I never learned the "boxes" until many years later, but I rarely think of them. My early self taught approach gave more of a "whole neck" way of thinking.
Short but sweet, brilliant lesson. Thank you!
Yes, more of this please.
love GG
Amazing! I watched this video and two seconds later played that exact same lick he played at the end just like he did. Lol. Seriously though, this is great advice for learning to move around the fretboard, and he explains it very well.
Guthrie is such a fantastic teacher, as well as guitarist
Very Helpful! Thanks again!
Starts of with a Spinal Tap reference. A+, good sir.
it was helpful and will definitely see you next time!
Oh my gosh Guthrie! That's helped so much! You just gave me a key...I've been playing for years and this practice idea of how to connect the boxes is brilliant. Thank you so much for adding to my never ending expression with the guitar. Your help I greatly appreciate! Yay!!!🤘🎸
Wow. He is a great teacher 😍
This is the way to do it. Great advice.
Everytime I watch one of Guthrie's lessons, I learn something. Something immediately useful and that integrates into my playing. Thank you, Mr. Govan!
Thanx! Woodshed time!
This is how I started really taking my improvising to the next level. Using my ear and my intuition to slide out of scale boxes.
I love how insightful sir Gunthrie is, something I've used for years but he can always take it to the next level and effortlessly so!
Every beginner guitarist should watch this video
Love your lessons Govan… You have a way of getting me to understand the fretboard more not only by what you say, but Also what you play in order to make it make sense in my ear! I know my way around the fretboard I know the cage system, and what you give us is a better way to understand and you are able to do it without complicating things… This is a gift, thank you!
great spinal tap reference
I've watched so many lessons in youtube and listened to so many guitarists; so far Sir Guthrie's the most helpful and enlightening to me.Thank you Sir Guthrie Govan.Godbless.
We need more people like Guthrie Govan.
It is SO much fun to just listen to him talk
When Guthrie speeks, you listen, and learn.. this guy is so good!
Totally awesome.
Started doing this by accident. Feeling out the notes above the shape I knew. Works a treat. You come to the realisation that the same shapes largely persist anywhere. The G string throws a persistent curve ball but it's always the same amount of curve!
Learn the shapes and the whole fretboard is yours.
Luv and Peace.
How did you learn the shapes? Is it pure memorization and muscle memory? Learning the shapes for every scale seems intimidating and too much.
jkman10 the best way I can put it is, think of the fretboard as a graph, like the same way you do scales, you can apply it to chords, kinda like in geometry when you connect the points and it makes a shape and the more you learn where the points start at, the more easy memorizing those shapes are and also finding the similarities and concepts makes it easy too~ Formulas am I right Haha
jkman10 Start with 2 shapes. I like to start learning any new scale with 1) the root note on the E string and 2) root note on the A string. Once you have those practiced and totally memorized you can just figure out a connection between those two positions and you’ll be pretty much all over the neck at that point.
Thanks Guthrie
Amazing lesson! To compliment this, I would suggest that you learn all of the modes for the pentatonic scale. Once I learned these, the fretboard opened up, and I could connect passages horizontally rather than just vertically.
thank you!
100% helpful!😊
He can sounds better than my full-skill solo by just playing the scale up and down... Amazing! What a great instructor and guitar player!
Wow.. Awesome.. realy,,really AWESOME
Until I watched this I played one part of the neck this helped so much
'Hello Cleveland' haaaaaaaaaaaaa
Good knowledge
God bless Guthie, my favorite british hippie shredder!
You look like a crazy flute player from the 70s
Ian 😂😂
The way guthrie govan attacks the notes is inspiring. .such a physical player.
Considering Guthrie can play literally anything this is such a wonderful, tangible approcah that will help beginner/intermediate players get out of the box!
You are just awesome i saw you live once and its was killer. Just a quick question, while sliding the notes do we need to have a visualisation of the next box pattern or is it by knowing the notes and its relative interval
I'm so glad UA-cam has a speed controller!
I never realized that, but now ive tried it, 0.5 speed turned Guthrie into a massive stoner !! that said, its still too fast :-)
nice thanks
This guy is a goddarn genius
Could not agree more Keep it simple slides connect brilliantly Don't get frustrated and enjoy the journey. Be as good as you can be and we don't all need to be anywhere near as good as Guthrie to get great enjoyment and satisfaction but still what an inspiration he is
great lesson made perfect sense amazing player
Thank u
that Layla spoof cracks me up every time 😂
i the the quarter tone bends and slides,, i can see also from other videos how he has an oriental influence
For people that don't know, Guthrie is first and foremost a teacher. Years ago in the mid 90s i would buy ' Guitar Techniques' magazine in the U.K that came with a cd and every month a young looking Guthrie would appear in the photo of contents, he would transcribe things like Steve Vai ' Eugene's trick bag' or Al di meola tunes. Even then his playing stood out as special. His trademark humour used to make me smile in the CD audio lol
YES this guy is fucking brilliant
cover more of that ground! that's what I am saying and trying to do!
1:48 lmao that's the melody from Ghost of Tsushima, the flute melody for "The Sun's Warm Embrace"
THE LAST LICK WAS INSANE
GG is one of best guitarists I've ever heard. His technique is mind blowing. I had never heard of him until recently.
this guy has a voice for television
is there some extremely high pitched sound in the recording? Cause i hear it and it goes away when I pause.
Yep. No problamo. Great idea to work on for the next 8 months
2:18 to 2:33
I think I've heard it somewhere. I wonder if anybody knows if it's from one of his songs or something.
That run at the end blew my mind. Any tips on how to do that? I really wanna learn it :')
learn the 5 shapes or boxes of the pentatonic scale and you can do all sort of of stuff like that
literally learn all 5 pentatonic boxes and slide in to all of em with some sick licks like I do to hoes dm's fam u dig
Travel to the deepest cavern u can, locate, burn and snort the necronomicon. Concoct a potion from lions blood, demon dandruff and dragon jizz, pour contents into an enema bag make from the stomach lining of a german tank, garnish it with the pubes of a wooly mammoth(preferably africanized) and keister it. If you can keep that shit internalized for 3 days whilst listening to Erotic Cakes backwards, you'll be well on your way to one crazy bar story. Cheers.
Hi im guthrie and youll never be as good as me but you'll try.. my god will you try.
What a master and so nice with it.
It’s funny because I’ve never studied music And I don’t know how to play the fretboard very well but I understand exactly what he’s talking about. Weird & Wild Stuff !!!
Aptly titled series: lick library
Beautiful Guitar. Anyone know what it is
"Hello Cleveland!"
Spinal Tap reference. Lol.
What I just learned is that I suck compared to Guthrie Govan.
I tend to follow CAGED theory, so that A minor 5th position pentatonic scale is known as the G form pentatonic, the A form is 2nd position and overlaps with the G form (which is the most popular because you start at the root and the 1st finger never leaves the 5th fret : 5th position.) The E form (The Dickey Betts form) is to the right of the G form and is in 7th position which overlaps the G form. I always try to choose a different pentatonic form for every phrase I play to keep me utilizing the entire fretboard. You can get away with soloing in just the G form but it gets boring quickly. When you learn all 5 forms, you'll find you can play linearly (across the fretboard) much easier.
"What I just learned is that I suck compared to Guthrie Govan" Yeah, you and 95% of everyone else that has ever picked up the instrument.
Whats the band at the nut?
Want to hear more about the G String
those two metal columns felt attracted to govan
Can someone please explain how his headband which is positioned over the 1st fret does not affect or impede the sound? How does he do it??
It's just a soft band which is just lessening the string vibrations so you don't hear extra string noise... When you're playing on a single string, it won't be affected at all because you have a finger playing that string. The band just mutes all the string he's not playing.
It's kinda like palm muting, but on the other side of the guitar. However, palm muting DOES affect every single note you're playing BECAUSE it's on the other side. lol
govan i love you
❤️❤️
I swear Guthrie wears this shirt in every lick library lesson
today I learned Guthrie owns one shirt
Real rockstars only have one shirt and one pair of shoes
That was his favourite Tshirt,or He made different video in a day using that Tshirts
i guess lots of guitarists have only one piece of clothing. I mean ive only ever seen paul stanley wear a shiny suit xD
He'd wear a cape but it'd be too obvious.
RIP Cornford
And god bless Guthrie
:-)
this fuckin guyyyyyy
What does he mean when he says to switch to another shape? Does he mean to use a different shape for the same scale or to find another scale?
Sav11 different shape for the same scale. He is playing the A pentatonic and connecting the different positions of that scale. First position starts at the root (5th fret E string) 2nd position starts at the 2nd note of the scale which is the C note on the 8th fret of the low E string.
@@DrJoshGuitar thank you, it's clear now
The lick from hell I love it
Another thing: instead of sliding you can bend. When you get confortable with both methods, start to mix them.
3:03
that was helpful for selling my guitar ... thanks ..
3:32 minute and I know what I am gonna do for months now...☺️
sitting under a triangle is powerful.
So I am taking from this, in short: slide the shape up, accommodate it from there. Anybody else feel other similar points?
what a lord!
Anyone recognised the Beautiful layla he played at the start 😂😂😂 the best
I slowed the playback speed to 0.5 so I could learn the cool stuff at the end. But the best part is Guthrie sounds drunk as hell. It's pretty damn funny listening to a guitar genius slurring his words while teaching you amazing things.
He reminds me of Alan Partridge
interesting
