    At 23:40, I meant to say "C minor chord, in the G shape"....NOT the "G minor chord"

      @@robertbrawley5048 you might also find it beneficial to think in terms of "intervals" too. This is an alternative to thinking in terms of "shapes" or even "note names". I have several lessons about this, including my most recent one: www.zombieguitar.com/a-new-way-to-look-at-the-pentatonic-scale-intervals-instead-of-patterns/

    The single best CAGED lesson ever. New to the channel and in the 5 videos I have watched, Brian has taught me; music theory, CAGED, how to play the piano, subdivisions, and how to create a track from scratch in a DAW. This guy deserves 10MM+ subs easily. His ability to communicate effectively makes him a tremendous teacher. Understanding the guitar has never been easier for me now.

All Brian's lessons are superb, but this one was absolutely awesome ..... we Zombies are so lucky, we've definitely the best guitar teacher, regarding both practical and theory ability, on You Tube!!!

    You, you my man, are FREAKIN awesome! I've seen a lot of well done 'CAGED" videos from others, but you just hit a grand slam with this one. This is the most complete, informative and easy to understand 'CAGED' lesson from start to finish I've seen to date. Maybe it's simply that I assimilate well with your teaching style. Nearly all of your lessons, after I've seen them a few times to let them fully digest, really seem to sink in and give me a lot of those "Aha, I get it" moments. Bravo my man, bravo!

    Brian this is the best description of CAGED anywhere on CZcams. I finally understood what it was all about a year ago or so, but it took me watching like 10 shorter videos, and reading websites on the subject to put it all together after the confusion. If someone has the attention span to watch this whole video you put together, they'll get it for sure. I'm going to recommend your video anytime I hear someone confused about CAGED. Your teaching style is great man, I wish I could find a local teacher like you. I'd gladly pay for weekly lessons.

  • @Acrosjc
    @Acrosjc Před 4 lety +5

    I like and am very inspired by over a dozen excellent CZcams platformed guitar lessons, but after I stumbled on one of your videos focused on knowing a songs key with the Circle of 5ths applied to demonstrating how to quickly learn a song by ear..........organizing a quick and logical method utilizing the options in Key/Circle of 5ths ..........this changed how I look at everything! It was the most amazing eureka moment that turned my limited music mind on to finally organize where I am plus options. I was blown away and felt very stupid (this was my favorite "Derrrrr" dumb eureka moment!) that I wasn't quick enough to recognize this years ago........oh well, haaaaa!!!!
    Brian! You are significantly superior to other excellent guitar instructors, period period period!!! Keep knocking it out of the park brother!!!
    I will be joining and getting your guitar lesson training materials soon here after I get through Christmas/New Years then I'll start a notebook(s) to solidify your lessons into my old knucklehead.....haaa!!
    Keep up your great and amazing teaching style brother! I'm a fan!

    I think your approach is so humble and not super CZcamsy, which is why you don't have millions of views...yet. Your knowledge is extremely impressive and really makes me want to sit down and force myself to understand what I've been missing for 20 years. I did the whole tab and by-ear thing when I was young because I wanted to play Metallica songs. Years later I realize that understanding more of what makes those songs what they are and maybe a little of what the writing process was like is so much more important than playing the same shit over and over again. I hope your channel continues to do well and you get the recognition you deserve. People should really pay for this type of knowledge.

I've left the hair metal, power chord world and taken up rockabilly playing which caged is so perfect for.
