One of the best lessons I’ve ever seen on CZcams.
Bro, listen to me.
NEVER STOP MAKING THESE LESSONS. We need you man!
Haha what a cliffhanger!!! I thought you would roast the shit out of me haha! Thank you so much. Shit this really helps me. I can’t describe how happy I’m am to read this and feel your support. I’m so happy to feel like I can do a difference here! What should I do lessons on next? Let me know🙏😍👀
@@ericassarsson7976 pure joy to read this my friend! I'd love more videos on common licks and phrases. And definitely one on the thought process of making a neo soul arrangement. Wish you all the success!
Hello teacher!!
I congratulate you for your guitar lessons, they are terrific!!
yeah you're right. i want you teach me a lot about guitar lessons. i need somes imformations
I"ve been literally non stop practicing the last 3 days for at least 2 hours each day, and I haven't even seen anything passed minute 5. This is pure gold!! keep up the great work!!!
I wish I saw this earlier!!!! Thanks!!! U R a Great teacher!!
Good job mate! Thanks for sharing. BTW at 3:40 chords written say Em9, but you are playing Dm9, just in case somebody's wondering ...
Great lesson, the pure sound of neo-soul.Thanks !
Incredible lesson. I don't think people realize CZcams is the best tool of our era to learn things. Thank you sir for your wonderful work. All the best
Yes! I totally agree
Thank you so much! I'm happy to read that you liked it😄 If you want to get access to my 300+ lessons and masterclasses with TABs and everything, check out my Patreon! I got the link in my bio! Have a great day☺️🎸
All the best, Eric
Just for people wanting to jam over the first two chords, watch out for the F# on the Em9 (fret 7 B String in the voicing shown) - That's more E minor/G major or C Lydian. It might be easier to treat those chords as the VI & II in the key of G. The natural occurring 4th in the key of C is F, not F#. That being said great video, really enjoyed it.
Ohhh yes you’re right! I actually tend to think both when I write music. I still think Cmajor. I guess it’s because I’m a jazz guy and just plays 9s everywhere haha! Otherwise there is no neo soul😂 But thank you for noticing it! I should prob mention that in the future. So everyone gets How I think! Thank you for being here and enjoying my content😄 I really appreciate it! All the best, Eric
OK you are a damn good theory man and know you modes from your elbow...but also keep in mind that swing and urban vibe must come across...hats off to you though for giving the alternative option way of approaching the musical theory...in the end its about expression and vibe which cut through to our audience who usually think that a mode belongs to a computer network! Ha!
I already have these concepts down but still watched just because the effort put into the production of this video is insane! Keep it up !!!
Ayeeee thank you so much! That’s the best compliment haha! I’m happy to hear that my friend. Thank you for your kind words! I’m looking forward to show you the coming videos🙏😄
This is too too nice. It has everything I dreamt of. God bless you
Beginner Neo soul player all the way from South Africa, keep up the great work Eric

@@ericassarsson7976 been playing since my 4th grade, I'm 30 now and maybe a little too late to learn all these but idc I will just play and learn new things unlike before. Your channel is a blessing for all musicians out there.
Really nice stuff, keep it up!!!
Ayeee thank you so much! How long have you been playing guitar for? 😄 All the best, Eric

Amazing! I’m so happy to hear that. Thank you so much for being here! I’m looking forward to show you my coming guitar lessons here. If you liked this one you will love my future ones! How long have you been playing guitar?
@@ericassarsson7976 I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for more. I've been playing for over 20 years, but hit a plateau. Because of you, that has changed =) Sincerely, thank you!
This is super insightful ❤❤
Thank you! I knew you would like it🙏😄
Great lesson!!, easy to understand and full of tools to gradually explore.
The sundays evening become more interesting since you decide to upload your lessons, thanks for share your knowledge with us Eric.
Ayeee thank you so much!!! I’m so happy to hear that. I really appreciate it🙏 Awww thank you! I hope sundays are a good day for youtube videos! I have been thinking of doing Thursdays aswell. Do you think it would be too much with two lessons a week? What do you think?
Also let me know if you got any requests on topics or ideas for my future videos here!
All the best,
Eric
Hi Eric!!.
WoW two videos on a week!!, it's not too much work for you?. It would be great, maybe too much to learn for a newbie like me, but well the information stays there and can go to the cue of things to learn, but i"m sure that theres someone over there that can do It...
One idea for your videos?, ok this one is specifically for your shorts, maybe a series of important quick tips that needs repetition, for example, "all Major scales in 30 seconds", or maybe "the scale of the day" or "diatonical triads progressions"... this Will be a very powerfull tool, (and Will be repeated and repeared, thats good for you channel).
Again thanks for your kindness and good work. Take care Eric.
Genio, capo, ídolo!!!
Extremely well made & super valuable for the community!
Ayeee thank you so much! How long have you played guitar?😄
@@ericassarsson7976 For over 40 years. I wish I had CZcams back in 1982!
Excellent lesion really easy to follow for a newbie - recently started playing simple 7/9th progressions since they sound so nice - lession + discovered a music genre I didn't know I like.

All the best, Eric
Fantastic Neo Soul lesson my brotha Eric as always.😀 Thank you very much for the comprehensive steps thats easy to follow, I love the diagram chords/tabs, the slow breakdown, the examples.👍for me this is the perfect video lesson, slow and worth the 30 minutes, everything is great.👌 plus the enthusiasm you have inspires me to pick up the guitar even though I just arrived from work.
Also just want to say that your guitar collection at the back is impressive. (how many are they?) Hope you can show them each on a future video.😊That's all my friend...my feedback is just continue this format (the onscreen chords is really helpful .) and the lessons tempo is perfect and not overwhelming. your the best Neo Soul teacher.💯 Cheers my friend.🙏
Oh thank you so much my friend! This really warmed my heart to read and hear coming from you. I can’t explain how much I appreciate your kind words. Thank you so much! I’m so happy to hear that.
I have been sitting editing new videos now to 4-5am several nights and to really feel like I make a difference in the world making it more fun and easy to learn guitar is everything I want. I’m so happy to hear this from you.
I have so much planned for you here on my CZcams and I can’t wait to show you it! If you liked this one you will love the next ones I have prepared for you here. How long have you been playing guitar for?
Also do you have any requests on topics or ideas for my lessons here? I’m always trying to find new stuff here.
Thank you for taking your time commenting. I really really appreciate your support and kind words!
All the best,
Eric
@@ericassarsson7976 your very much welcome mate,😀its a pleasure to comment and support you. The lessons I would like to see would be anything about been Chords and Jazz solos at the same time. playing guitar for 10 years (only rock and metal) and I'm a Neo Soul begginer. Just learning it a year ago. Cheers as always my friend. Thank you!...Have a great day.🙏
At the beginning I was like “oh I got this” then as it progressed I was more and more like “…wait, what”
Awesome vid man, a lot to chew on here
Haha legend!!! That's exactly what I wanted you to feel haha
I said the same thing😂
you should add your own name to the list of great players for sure! lots to ponder for an interested 65 year old! can't help but notice also apart the left hand the right hand is going places too! and I think the beat kick and snare can carry a lot of space and accents to give it that jive man...or I would say...that keep on keeping on trucking lick!!! mercy.
Ayeee thank you so much man! I really appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it! More is on its way and I'm looking forward to show you it! If you liked this one you will love the future ones. Cheers from Sweden! All the best, Eric
Dope 🔥💯%
Thanks for the Video
You’re welcome my friend! Thank you for being here. More free guitar lessons coming! All the best, Eric
Cool❤
Am I the only one who was waiting till the ChatGPT part will finally end 😂 Anyway thanks for sharing. I’m just starting my journey with neo-soul. This video is a good start.
Hahahaha
Je vous ai découvert aujourd'hui !!!! Awsome!!! Bonnes vibes de Nouvelle Calédonie/south pacific
Thank you so much! How long have you been playing guitar? All the best, Eric
Fantastic. Very awesome playing.
Ayeee thank you so much!!!
You’re the best Andrea! See you soon again🤩🎸🔥
Love that guitar, sweet & warm tone :)
Ayeee me too! Thank you! I’m so happy with it. It is Tosin Abasis brand! It’s a very ”simple” guitar but still so rich😍
Have you tried one of these ones before?😄
@@ericassarsson7976No but I was a bit surprised it could sound like that. The t style ones look really cool as well.
Hey man, thanks you this is a killer video lesson. Just subscribed to your channel. Could you put in description the time with the various section of the video? Would be very useful, thank you!
Sure bro will do! I just don't know how to do it😅
@@ericassarsson7976the same way you did it here! 😆 czcams.com/video/tsD0KYXWX9o/video.htmlsi=t741x-a1Z-AJjwN1
Great video!! Thanks for the great content
I want to suggest a video explaining and comparing neo soul and two other genres that sometimes get confused with neo soul, math rock and midwest emo.
Emo isnt as common, but math rock gets compared/confused with both neo soul and emo, being like a bridge between these two styles.
For me it's kind of a bsdic video and a topic in need of a professional approach loke yours. Thanks again!
Ofhhhhh I love that idea! Thank you so much! I will put it up on my list hehe! I have so much planned for you here on my CZcams. Thank you for the request!
So between those genres you mentioned or even more?
@@ericassarsson7976 and thank you for caring! Looking forward to your content
Hey man, you're completely missing the Brazilian/Basso Nova influences of Neo-Soul my man, & one the biggest artist influences on the genre, the immaculate Sade.

Ayeee thank you so much! How long have you been playing guitar for? 😄 All the best, Eric
i love that abasi larada. im building a guitar with a similar shape and i was stumped on how to move forward with the neck joint, im sure you know as well as i do how odd and progressive of a design that guitar is.

Hello Eric,
I am a new subscriber. ❤
Hey there! Thank you so much! I'm happy to hear that. How long have you been playing guitar for? 😄
At the 3:49 min we have EM9 on the diagram, but you play Dm9(Dorian D) on 10th fret
Just subscribed and hit the bell!!!
Ayeeeeeee

Thanks for that great work. You make nice Video's!
Ayeee thank you so much man! I really appreciate it🙏😄
Hello teacher!!
Hey dude 03:40 I think you play Am and Dm
It’s not Am and Em 🤣🤣
By the way thanks you for sharing this ❤ I love it
Oh you’re right!!! I’m happy I’m Also showcasing it on the fretboard haha! My transcriber must have got it wrong. I’m sorry for that! Everything else should be right. Thanks for letting me know and thank you for your kind words and comment🙏😄 Cheers
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you my friend!
Hearing you talk reminded me of Bruce Lee. You sound like
"The Bruce Lee of Neo Soul guitar." 😂 Keep up the good content.
Haha!! Ayeee thank you so much! How long have you been playing guitar for? 😄 All the best, Eric
@@ericassarsson7976 I've been playing for about 40 yrs. and I'm always looking to expand and improve. Thanks for the lessons. 😎
Neo Soul is jazz for people who don't want to look like jazz nerds. Great video though!
how should i start learning electric guitar? work on technique, songs, improv at first? thanks!!
Hi Eric, so good and usefull. Thanks for your wonderful lessons. You are such a good guitarist. By the way what string gauge are you using?
Thank you so so so much!!! I use 11 on this one! But otherwise I prefer 12s NYXL Daddario! All the best, Eric
Thanks for answer. I am curious about how you visualise the fretboard specially when soloing. Do you use intervals, scales, triads, arpeggios? Or a combination of all. Thanks for your kindness 🙏❤️
Where are you bro? Coming to take lessons 🤣
My Patreon brother!!!
And no mention of the late, great Spanky Alford who pretty much pioneered the style?
Please send me some of Spanky’s music. I have never heard about that guy!
@@ericassarsson7976 Wow! Chalmers Edward "Spanky" Alford - Do a search - D'Angelo, Tony! Toni! Tone!, John Mayer, Raphael Saadiq ... He came from a gospel background and pretty much invented the Neo style. Isaiah Sharkey's mentor.
3:32 is not that A and D?
I mean obviously i hear a 4th interval between the chords, but also its said "12 fret" for the E chord (but you playin on the 10th)
Thanks for your videos!!
Yes! My transcriber got it wrong haha! I’m sorry for that. I’m happy it’s pretty obvious! Thank you for noticing it haha! And I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed it still haha😍
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
🙏😄
👊😎👋
Ayeee thanks🙏😄 Do you also play guitar??
Yes ,for 30 years 😅.👋
Am I being mad or are the chords at 3.30 D not E? 10th fret barre with the hammer on to 12? In any case, awesome video, thank you so much. At 50 i need inspiration like this.
amazing content! like and sub!
Ayeee thank you so much man! I really appreciate it! Do you also play guitar?😄
@@ericassarsson7976 yes I do! And your neo soul content it's so useful, makes me pick my guitar and start noodling some chords!
hi, nice lesson but chords should be A-9 / D-9 @ 3:37
Yes that’s right haha! Sorry for that😅
@@ericassarsson7976 no worries, great work
Em (iii grade of CMajor) can be:
sus4 7 11
But ¿9? Not disponible tension.
Wouldn't the Emin9 Amin9 vamp put you in G Major/E Minor instead of C Major because of the F#?
Yes! You’re right. I usually play in both the lydian mode and the major one. For me the #11 is a more natural scale. It would be very wierd to use a b9 on the Em😅 But thank you for noticing it! I guess I should call it Gmajor in the future! So everyone gets it😄
been playing around 2 years and this is still to advanced for me, maybe make an actual beginner video?
3:45 ?? Am9 -> Dm9
why is it Em9? is it not Dm9? 3:50
Bro how many guitars do you own :D ?
I don’t know😆😆😆
What amp do u use?
Amplitube!
@@ericassarsson7976 but what amp?
how about LOFI?
A lesson on this coming next Sunday!!! Thanks😄
Sounds great but wayyyy too much camera movement. Making me feel a lil dizzy.

u keep slapping your strings percussively. is this needed every time? i mean this seems to be common in this genre. do you need to do it if there is drums and why do you do it anyways when it isnt used much in other genres. i can understand if the guitar is the only instrument.
Yes! It's pretty common actually!
Neo Soul isn’t a real genre. It was merely a marketing tool coined by Kedar Massenburg. The artist’s originally associated with this term act hate this name. 😂😂😂😂😂

Black Americans be aware we must start to gate keep our sound and music because they will later say they invented it.
26 seconds in and those camera movements.... nope, I'm feeling a bit sick.
Haha! Bro you should see the games kids plays these days. This is light compared to what people are used to these days. But I guess You’re right. My dad agrees with you too😅
@@ericassarsson7976 Heja Pappa!
Im a kid from these days, but I agree with your dad. Slow down a bit, neo soul is cool and not stressing
I think you could have squeezed in 25 more examples if you would stop putting a commercial after every lesson!
Premium doesn’t get ads. It’s worth it tbh if your on CZcams all time like I am.
@@tc3881lol ok Google
Or…and stick with me here, u just appreciate the time and effort it took for a highly produced, clear and understandable free lesson…and understand that a small effort to make money is essential to one’s existence
It’s kinda like a nice break to separate the different progressions
Seriously… This is for beginners??? I have been playing jazz guitar for decades and I was having trouble keeping up with you..
The relentless self-promotion is a bit cloying. You are a good player. Far less talking and more showing is in order. Do you think people want to subscribe to hear more talking in the rest of your videos? Geesh...
Too much adhd, not enough lesson.
MAXWELL !!! SADE !!
Ayeeeeee😍😍😍
