Brilliant...I integrated this with my previous experience and fretboard knowledge..and I had an Epiphany!!! With this system Even Giant Steps gets easier.
I have to say, that I have seem about a dozen of your videos over the last few days and I am really impressed with your playing, and knowledge. I firmly to believe that learning licks and copying from the Masters is the best way to learn how to play. However, I have to point out that if one truly wants to master the guitar it is far better to learn all the notes on all strings in every postion . It may be difficult at first, but with practice like anything else will become second nature and will open a far bigger world of possibilities Like learning to read music ,instead of playing tab. I will continue to watch your videos ,as I find your ideas and playing ability amazing.. Thankyou A Fan
Thank you Christiaan. I am good with all notes on 6th string due to root 6th string chords. Check. I will make some flashcards for triads in every key, I'm spotty. On the naming 1st, 3rd, 5th, it is easier for me to think of those shapes as 1st on E string (barre chord with R6), then 1st on B string (your 3rd), then 1st on A string (your 5th). I haven't moved on to the improvisation part and categorizing licks into those three buckets, I'll see if my naming gives me a problem. Keep up the good work.
I mean, this is pretty much caged with extra limitations. But it's a good way to get off to a flying start. But it's a system that doesn't help too much with coming up with your own lines or riffs (as it relies completely on practiced lines).
@@sprenzy7936 Until you eventually find out the limitations of CAGED lol. (especially when you come to Harmonic minor and Melodic minor scales) "Three Notes Per String System" is where it's at!!! ;) (If you learn the secret "full System" that is!) It's very consistent, symmetrical & without any holes. 7 Modes = seven positions, one for each note of the scale. (No fretboard blind spots, like in CAGED and other Systems) The scale shapes are perfect for alternate picking, economy picking & sweeps. There's only seven patterns to learn, not a new set of patterns for every mode, creating a whole new fretboard configuration. (like you'll find they teach in other Systems today) Another part of the System is it's One octave arpeggios that are built off each finger (within the scale patterns) always follow the same order: 1 4 7 3 6 2 5. (This isn't possible with other systems, including CAGED) e.g: Pick a 3NPS scale pattern, then play a triad or 7th arpeggio starting with your little finger, then move down to the next string & repeat the pattern again with the same finger. It follows this sequence & it does the same for the middle & index finger. Same 4th's order, same patterns and the same picking motion. You'll notice this creates a repeating "perfect fourth" sequence, one of the most important movements in music. (especially Jazz) If you move these arpeggios diagonally up the fretboard (starting with the same finger) you'll find i creates a "perfect fifth" sequence: 1 5 2 6 3 7 4. (another important movement in music) The amazing thing is this is built into the 3NPS System with consistency in picking, movement and follows a logical path. Stay on the same string sets and move up or down & you'll be moving the Arpeggios in a diatonic motion: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. There many more systematic patterns you'll find and this is all just within the scale patterns themselves. Then there's the other parts of the "3NPS System" like: Six & Five string sweeping arpeggios, with their inversions. (3 shapes for triads & 4 for seventh, one logical shape starting fro each note) Within these arpeggios you'll find ALL your "chord inversions" (on each string set) & the "Pentatonic scales" fit perfectly within the six string sweep patterns, interlocking for each mode. Creating a complete overlay of all your fretboard knowledge. 3NPS Is a "complete System" Although you'll not find people teaching it that way. In fact you'll not find this information anywhere (in one place at least) on the web or in a book. As it has been lost, drowned out by the CAGED over the last 20-30 years. Unfortunately It's now become a "lost system," reduced down to simply a another way of playing scales. It's so much more than this as you can see! I'd advice you at least investigate what I've mentioned here, as this knowledge isn't found easily. It could take your playing to another level, and it drastically reduces the learning curve. You'll find It's the most Systematic layout of all fretboard systems & most complete.
@@jazznotes3802 Of course CAGED should be combined with horizontal playing which leads naturally to 3NPS. In reality, a lot of playing is much more comfortable in one position rather than flying off with 3NPS. So we need to get comfortable with both. In the end, they're just two sides of the same coin.
@@KaninTuzi If you only know the CAGED System then sure, you’ll need another method (so to speak) to help you out. But not necessary if you only learn 3NPS. 3NPS System is a complete system, no holes or gaps with no limitations. The problem is nobody knows the “3NPS System,” they only learn the seven patterns and think that’s all there is to it.
@@jazznotes3802 3nps doesn't readily allow players to play riffs, chords, double stops etc in one position. That's why a combination of approaches is most suitable for most players. I don't know anybody teaching CAGED who doesn't also advocate expanding the shapes horizontally.
i still havent understood the position first finger concept. when i would play over 1 bar of E7 for example. starting on the high E string 10 fret (d), going down descending to the A string 7th fret home to e, so, my first finger would be my middle finger ending on the A string. those this line count for a dominant line on the A string first position but starting on the high e string ? because otherwise this picking would be weird i think (starting on the 10th fret high e with the index finger) the lick i mean is a descending fdim arpeggio
If I understand correctly that line would be the 7th position of E7 because your first finger starts on the 7 of E7 on the high E string! It does not matter that the 1st finger is not playing the first note of the phrase!
hello Christian im sorry to post this here but ive written to the address on your website and am expecting a reply. I was wondering what was the proportion of Bop or Jazz to Gypsy Jazz licks in the book. im sure most of these licks can be interchangeable if you change the vibrato and phrasing. im even looking for a more gypsy picked style but id still want to know if there is some bebop or straight ahead american jazz material in the book. im very keen about buying it. thank you so so so much for what you share.
Hello Christiaan ,Great work . A few suggestions .Move the photo above your right shoulder to the right .Please run your head phone chord along the stand down to the floor .Let it run down to the floor and then up along your back behind you . The chord is nerve racking .Tack the case out of the picture And either put the amp more in the picture or takeout better to leave it in .But let it be seen. Very good lessons . I am working on my work too . Try to make better vids . thank you for your help as well .
Kom op CHRISTIAAN ;-), weet je echt de noten op de andere snaren niet? Hoe moeilijk is dat nou echt? Dit is typisch iets wat een alleen een gitarist kan bedenken...... Ik geef inmiddels 32 jaar gitaarles en ik vind dat het leren van de noten op alle snaren een eitje is: Eet Friet Bij Cor.... Alles is twee frets verschil behalve E-F en B-C. Dat kun je een kind van acht jaar in 10 minuten uitleggen. Even een toetsenbordje erbij om te laten zien hoe de zwarte toetsen liggen en klaar ben je.
@@josdurkstraful Dank en dat zou mensen dan aan het denken moeten zetten. Wellicht steken ze te veel tijd in zaken die er niet toe doen. Ik heb leren gitaar spelen zoals een Sinti dat leert, lijnen overnemen van andere gitaristen zonder je druk te maken over enige theorie. Dat is waar mijn kanaal over gaat. Ik weet de locatie van de noten niet en ik ben er vrij zeker van dat ik het ook nooit ga leren. Ik heb het simpelweg niet nodig. Ik leer doorgaans alleen wat nodig blijkt in de praktijk!
Very nice this is what my teacher Barry Greene has taught me to do. It's all about having vocabulary in many positions on the fretboard.
Sounds good!
Brilliant...I integrated this with my previous experience and fretboard knowledge..and I had an Epiphany!!! With this system Even Giant Steps gets easier.
That's more or less what I do...just that I don't have as many licks as you. Extremely useful Christiaan!!!

Hey Christiaan I made a Guitarist's workout video, it's fun only lasts two minutes, it's where you'd expect it to be.
Haha, I want to see Stochelo do that!
Omfg this is charity.....best lesson ever !!!! TY

Than you
Does your book?
Illustrated all the triads that has to be memorized ?
Can you tab the intro, that looks like a fun warmup run!
I already made a video about it actually: czcams.com/video/qHUqu7Rcu70/video.html
