Learning guitar is the equivalent to opening the last door in a game and finding 10 more levels lol
Agree so much
Exactly
It never ends
Lmaoo true af

Dunno how many people this makes sense to but it's how I've written it out for me.
Each shape is the column going down.
The very beginning on the G root note has a silent 2 before it.
This makes perfect sense to me, thank you kind stranger.
it wouldve been better if it was inverted, eadgbe from bottom to top because its how tablature is written and how you see the fretboard holding the guitar
i just took a pic of this. You just made it all simpler, Thanks! 😁
@@jdmb2749 yeah, a friend told me it was upside down too!
Thanks for the feedback :)
It's perfect mate. Good on ya
Anyone else forcing themselves to study this during quarantine ?
not forcing myself, i want to learn it :)
Lol, I want to learn. I think he’s a good teacher
yesssssir
I am also viewing guitar videos.
God of Madness me too!
2:22 second shape
4:12 third shape
6:05 fourth shape

Thank you!
@anglovirtual probs cos its just the minor scale
Why do we need more than one shape why not just play one shape all over
Marty Music! Shout out to you for 7 years of teaching me how to play guitar! Now I am just making a career out of my musical talent and I am super happy to be one of your students. You helped me grow as a musician and I will always remember you!
Crazy how a brilliant mind can come onto youtube and teach a bunch of individuals effectively enough so that they make careers out of it , rock on everyone 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Arrogant twat
That is awesome
As a self taught player, I find it constructive if..instead of memorizing fret positions, call out the notes. This we’ll help you learn where all the notes are on the fret board. Randomness is your best friend, close your eyes, slide to a position and run the scale from there. If you get lost, look for the octave, example if your on the A on the 6 string and you need to find the next A it will be on the 4th string octave.
I agree 100%... why isn't it done that way more often??
I guess it’s good to know the scales repeat. You can’t use them without knowing the notes though. You might only need a few notes before changing keys. I guess it’s hard to monetize a video that makes people quit the guitar though. 😂
I learned this by mastering the 5 pentatonic and Aeolian shapes. Then I realized the whole fret board and every scale is connected by these repeated shapes that just lay right on top of each other and interweave with each other from scale to scale. Thats why he says, once you know this , you know all the modes even if you dont know it, every mode lies within each shape.
I love the way you teach it makes it simple. And you do it slow. I've seen people do what you do but they play regular speed and you can't see where their fingers are going but with you you can.
@@bencepinter6176 Right
True... He is really Incredible 👏👏👏👏💞
I totally agree. I have tried watching other lessons but they just don’t teach as well as Marty 👏🏼👏🏼
Major Marty Mode!
Sicko mode
This is the ultimate “ah-ha” video of all time. Huge thanks to Marty
Wtf "ah-ha" mean?
@@thurinaradan7135 Salmon? No, wait! I got it, I got it! Black metal!
Okay, learned all of it, *perfectly* .
What was it that I learned?
Sounds like irish class
@@respectalgebra 100% haha
@@billgleeson3465 great education system we have lol
do you know what it is now i dont
Can someone pls tell me if this is for g major, will like an A major have such 5 ways also, I'm new to scales and confused
a few years back i started learning guitar with your videos. now i just discovered u got a new channel. im really glad you are back. its like my guitar teacher returned from a long long holiday.
by far the best guitar lessons on YT! makes me understand so quickly.
big up from germany!
When you REALLY want to learn,Marty is the best teacher on youtube hands down! Only one who teaches slow enough for beginners 👏
Thanks for the Video! Forgive me for butting in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Riddleagan Skillful Playing Remedy (do a google search)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for learning complex guitar chords and become a pro without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my close friend Aubrey finally got great results with it.
Hands down best explanation of scale positions on the internet. Thank you, Marty!
Been playing guitar for over 30 years. Yeah, so I thought today might be a good day to learn scales! :D
What?
Actually?
@@djdeto7382 , fun fact : you can write great songs without ever knowing any scales. You could probably write a great song without knowing where F# is on your low E.
I think I'm the inverse of this... I've been "playing" for a few years (about 4 I think), but I want to understand what I'm playing, not just learn a bunch of songs without any music knowledge, so I've been learning scales and chords and modes and just noodling around, but I can't actually play anything. LOL I'm probably at the stage where I should just learn a damn song, because I still don't feel like I can "play the guitar." LOL
@@NeoRichardBlake I’m currently in the same path as you and I’ll tell ya when you learn scales and some parts of music theory first and then learn songs. Your mind will be blown with how simple but genius songs are. It’s actually crazy
I learned this from my teacher and really helped a ton as well as chord key centers.
Marty, thanks for what you do! Can not wait to see more of the guitar tours!!
Dude, just putting it out there, I've been jamming for a long time and totally enjoy your simplistic approach to various categories. Very informative tutorials!! It definitely shows one can always learn something new - or in this case, WOW! I never thought of it like that!! Thanks, Marty You ROCK!!!!
I’m a bass player and my friend, you are helping me out tremendously. Thank you very much.
Marty ; you are a natural teacher. Im 'middle of the road' kind of level with no theory whatsoever and for the first time, I have come across someone that is teaching in a way that makes the link between theory and practical...and doing it with style! You're right...it is good for me! Thanks!
You have no idea how much this helped me!
Dude wtf!!! I know im late and neglected shit like this for way to long .... but thank you so much for your time and music knowledge!! Helped me big time for years now!!
It took me 13 years to finds this holy grail of a video , I've always been clueless about scales as to how to play it , i know theory but this video is all one needs to master to have a kick-ass start to soloing journey,
I owe you a lot Marty , seriously thank you brother .
This helps a lot. I've been breaking them down as you suggest and it makes it much easier.
Thanks so much. I've been looking for guitar scales all over the planet, and here you are with the new upload, saved my life!
Thank you much for this video. Just what I was looking for . Some great scales to build on.!
I gotta thank you man, ever since I started about 8 years ago, you were my main teacher! Keep up the work man!
You are the bst teacher of scales on you tube by far! Thanks you for this!! 😊
You explain it so well!
Cool Marty! Thanks for time and sharing!
i watched your vids about 6-7 years ago when i started on guitar ,i wish i didnt just learn covers though tbh because then i wouldnt be here.i rememeber i liked that you mentioned every single note because i was new to everything.Now im finally studying music as a bassist.
YES!!!! Thanks marty! whats your favorite mode, i personally love how locrian sounds
Marty! How’s it going! Keep it up! One price of advice, I want more tutorials instead of countdowns. But they are fun so I’ll watch u no matter what! Thank you for teaching me guitar!
Thanks for the videos. Very helpful. I always reccomend your tutorials to my friends. 👍🤘 keep em coming!
Congratulations on the Million Marty!! 👊🎸
Congrats to 1 million subscribers Marty!!
You followed up on the comments asking for modes explained; you the man, Marty! Thanks
Marty you have helped me SO Much over the years. Since wayyy back. Thanks🤙🤙
Idk if guitar teachers don’t know the theory behind what they’re doing or if they’re just usually bad teachers bc he never once explained that he was started on different degrees in the major scale or what modes they translate too. Had that simple idea been explained this can be applied to literally any scale and any position, instead it’s just a bunch of robot shapes to remember and not know how to apply to actual music.
I totally agree! I love marty and all but I'm either pausing it, rewinding constantly, or just not even playing along and just writing stuff down and the figuring it out on my own.
But here's a really simple way to tell which scale you're playing in. The first is G because that's the first note, aka the root note. (He does confuse it a little in the beginning saying you can throw in the 2nd fret on the big E (F#) because it's in the key of G.)
So the second part of the scale would be the A Major Scale (5th fret on the E).
3rd would be B Major (7th Fret.)
4th would be D Major (10th fret.)
Then the last is E cuz it's the 12th fret.
Hope that helped 8 months later.
@Ryan R.W. They are, I should have said that haha. What I was getting at is that each shapes root note changes but they are in the Key of G.
For me, it helps knowing what the root note is in the shape when going down the neck.
Edit: Also, this is just the beginning of understanding 5ths, triads, etc. So it's good to memorize this before you move on to deeper things. I highly recommend Paul David too, he goes into it a little more in this video

@@mate53 Thank you kind stranger, this really opened my eye to new discoveries. Best wishes!
Thank you so much Marty! Very informative! Cheersss!
Marty makes learning so easy. Very gratefull,thank you :)
Thank you so much Marty. This journey is great ☺️
Wow this video helped me bridge my knowledge between major and minor scales so well
That ole Heritage has taught me so many songs.
Old man is looking dashing today 👊
Keep it up man
I'm learning a lot from you
Thank you for years of top notch guitar dude!!! I have you and pretty much you alone to thank for being able to play guitar. Keep up the good shit!!!
Liked and subscribed! Thanks mate, you've been incredibly helpful. Keep the vids coming 🤟
I was watching the lesson but found myself mesmerized by the cool stripe/flame pattern on the body of the guitar.
Its called sunburst 😁
You have great taste in guitars, Marty. This one looks beautiful
Thanks for another great lesson Marty!!
That 4 th position on the e and b on the descending pattern sounds like the beginning of hearts crazy on you
Really appreciate your work Marty!!!
I tend to get confused with these 5 shapes and pentatonic shapes but this made sense
Thank you even though I may know them this is more helpful than everything I’ve learned.
This video is the key to everything, my eyes glistened when he said this will enable me to play every mode through out the fret board
Legend says the fadora has such a blessing that will make you a guitar god
Marty you Rock! Thank you for your time :)
Very helpful! Thanks Marty!!
Marty has to be the best. I learnt a lot from him. Brilliant.
Nobody can explain better than that.. good job 👌👍👍
This is crazy!! Iv'e been spending the last 2 years playing to minor backtracks, & it's so much fun in any "minor" key 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I want to play like John Mayer so bad! I gotta figure this out! Thanks for posting
Back to fundamentals! I love this!
I studied it before, but now realizing many years in how Key (pun intended) it is to really getting good at Guitar! The Major and the 6th Aeolian Natural Minor scales… From there the Modes are waiting in a more understandable way! THANKS MARTY… YOU ROCK! 🎸🎶
Thank you sir.I have learned alot.Just to practice.
Just the lesson I was looking for
Thanks Marty great tutorial
Thank you for this!
Al always, big thanks to Marty. After learning the pentatonic shapes, I am ready to get my pick wet with the major scale. Little by little.
Marty is the Man!
Love the shapes they fun!
You are Exellent at instructions . thank you for your help .
Congrats on a million subscribers!!!!
always awesome content
I understand now why this is such a pivotal lesson. If you translate the starting point anywhere, its a new key, and you can use the same shapes for the entire fret board. Wild.
1 million! Congrats!
Marty is an angel and we are so so so lucky to have him.
Yep. As you say, the 'doh-ray-me' scale. :) I've seriously got to learn this.
I have missed out on marty music for way to long!
Great guy awesome teacher
So I’ve recently been researching scales and stuff and this is the best video I have seen in the past week. You are like the last puzzle piece. So fucking smart man
Glad I can help! Thanks for the support.
This is awesome
Thanks Marty!
You are one of my favourite guitar teachers online! You are one of the best! Can you try and teach us Happy with you by Paul McCartney Please?
you're the man marty
Excellent
love this
I've spent hours just on this video. And I WILL NOT move on to another until I get it to the point where its effortlessly done. Thanks Marty!!!
The key to guitar and the scales is to get repetitive as hell !
This is so helpful
Thanks been playing for 5 months and hit a block so when i found this i was amazed at how it helped me thank you so much it was an awesome lesson Request could you do a lesson on cliffs of dover by any chance ? Thanks
You've been playing for 5 months and want a lesson on cliffs of Dover? Excuse me what?
Edit: well 7 months now but still..
Joey Goodfield yes why?
Song request: James Taylor "Something in the way she moves". Please and thank you. Love this video. perfect for me having recently started my grind of repeating your amazing course at Martymusic website on the major scale! Thanks man!
Do you have a video explaining how the five shapes can be used as different modes? I know how to move the shapes like a slide rule to go from Major to minor, but can you have a video showing the slide rule for the other modes? There is a lot of technical info about modes, but hardly anything that just breaks down the simple basic "how to" calibrate onto a different mode.
Ionian 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Dorian 1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7
Phrygian 1 b2 b3 4 5 b6 b7
Lydian 1 2 3 #4 5 6 7
Mixolydian 1 2 3 4 5 6 b7
Aeolian 1 2 b3 4 5 b6 b7
Locrian 1 b2 b3 4 b5 b6 b7
All of these modes are in direct relation to the ionian mode, or major scale by sharpening or flattening a note. There are far more modes that are based off of different scales ie. melodic minor modes, harmonic minor modes etc...
Oh my god been after this
Do a "Come back to earth" - Mac Miller acoustic tutorial!!!
Awesome video! My understanding of the modes is pretty good, but this is really helpful in connecting the dots between all the different positions. Can't wait to dig into this! Update: having fun and learning, but why not include Lydian and Locrian? I know...5 is one of those magic youtube numbers...
Rockabilly riffs are a perfect example and warm up .
Hey Marty! Love what you're doing man, keep up the good work! Would love to see you teach us how to play "Little light" by Lewis Watson!
I knew my pents better than my majors. That was good review. I went crazy on playing them. Fun
I’m starting to look at your channel as a secret weapon before improvisation jams and gigs lol
5:34 When you want to shred up and firing everywhere but you need teach 5 shapes of major scale and modes.
Is that a heritage guitar .. what a beaute!!
Did this man teach all this in 10 minutes 🎸🤘🤗
loving it, can you do a lesson on cornbag by head like a hole
