    This is the first video from you I've watched. I have to say, nothing short of absolutely impressive
    This philosophy of info > anchor > scaffolding is just so neat and the gold quality I wanted to find on yt.
    Thank you for the advice, I will keep this one close to me and maybe, even try applying it to map out the zhongruan (not a guitar, but still has fretboard). It will be an interesting exercise to say the least - fellow string musician

    Another genius lesson Chris. Whilst I do fully understand this, I could never explain it to A N Other. So, not only is the content superlative, the delivery is also important. No one does it like you. Its truly special. Thanks Chris.

    If anyone has only happened on to this channel by chance today, by viewing this lesson--and--you are looking for ways to really deepen your knowledge of music and how that all applies to the guitar, you may have just stumbled across one of the most significant teachers you will meet/find. If you are in a rush, or just casually cruising or browsing...do yourself a favor and just bookmark this lesson or the channel and come back when you have time. I'm not sure I can even explain how radically different the teaching here is and do it justice. It's nothing to do with someone that is somehow be able to magically regurgitate the same information in a way that you will understand so much as....what you've found here is the guitar study equivalent of "give a man a fish, eat for a day....teach a man to fish....". yeah. I can't explain it in words. But, bookmark, save the lesson or channel and come back when you have the time....because I do know that is an important factor. If you are ready to do some work...this could be one of those milestone moments, your playing before and after you started doing this work sorta-thing....

I’m getting some Seymour Duncans this week to try out as the pick ups are good, but don’t seem to have quite the dynamic range that I feel they should. And the nut needs a little detailed filing as the G string is a bit squirrelly, tuning-wise.
