I really appreciate your slow, friendly lessons. You come off like an old friend who wants to show you some cool guitar stuff in the living room. Its nice you don’t
shred like so many here.
Thanks again!
Thank you!
so so true.
When I hear that E aug chord, I expect to have it followed by,
"Oh, Darling. Please believe me."
I hear you, though I usually think, "Ridin' along in my automobile."
That's exactly what I thought of, I love that cord!
@@jdl2180 For sure it is one of the most beautiful and haunting chords - it stands on the edge of a cliff ready to launch into something amazing 😍😍
@@MarkZabel "...with no particular place to go."
For me, I hear it as the last chord of an intro before the song is ready to go all out heavy blues with a sultry solo. 😎
That Sire with 9O's sound great.
I'm definitely digging it.
Thanks Mark , now I'm trying it on da banner 🦤👍
One of the best holistic guitar mentors on the tube. Thanks for all you do Mark!!
Wow, thanks!
Thanks Mark! Learning a lot! Appreciate you helping us out!
My pleasure! Glad to help!
Thank you so much for you gentle, friendly teaching. Your attitude as well as your skill touches me deeply. Getting me to reply with such thanks isn't too normal for me. I send it from my heart like applause at the end of a song.
You are so welcome. Thanks so much for your kind comment!
great lesson Mark!
Thanks!
I knew about movable diminished chord but the movable augmented was new to me. I love those little insights you pass on to us,
Tru same , 👍
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved it Mark. Thanks. This will definitely help.
Thanks Joe. Glad it was helpful!
Mark keep up the great teaching…. We are all learning. Thank you
Thanks, will do!
Thanks Mark!
My pleasure!
Thanks Mark. You are great!
Thanks so much Joy!
Great! Thank you so much!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
Great lesson. Thanks, Mark.
Glad you liked it!
I'm a singer and usually insist on doing covers in the key written.I think key changes change the feel of the song. Thanks for the lesson Great!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching.
What’s better, straining and struggling to hit every note, or changing key and nailing the performance
I drop almost every song I cover by at least half a step, never noticed a problem with maintaining the feel
Change the key to fit your vocal bro
That’s fine if your vocal range matches that of the singer. What happens when it doesn’t? Male/female registers?
@@davidtomkins4242 Then I guess key change becomes the only option
Thaks Markie. 🙂
You bet brother!
Got it! I see what you did. #1 there is a lot of room between chords which will make it harder for the average player to quickly transpose. Inversion #2 makes it relatively easy to transpose up and #3 makes it even simpler to transpose down. Excellent video and teaching, and hey I picked up a new snazzy progression to boot! Cheers!
Enjoyed very much, Mark!
Many thanks!
Another great lesson Mark, you always manage to show me something I never thought of, even after years of playing,
Thanks a ton Paul!
Band in a box is what he started with that the chords you saw, that plays along, yes it costs 99$ but it’s worth it, if you play like this fender tone type music works awesome for blues
Augmented is a strange sounding chord today, but not yesterday. Great turnaround chord.
Yes, absolutely. Much more common in early the swing era. Great as a turnaround chord (as it's used here) alternative to a more typical dominant, but also a great opening chord a la Chuck Berry or his influence - T-Bone Walker. T-Bone almost certainly got it from the early swing players who very often used Aug7 chords.
Another great lesson
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice lesson Mark. For those of us who are still finding our feet on the guitar the F# minor using the D minor shape is also available in that same area as the one you showed.
Thanks!
Very good lesson. Easy to digest, but enough to challenge me a bit. Thanks!
Thanks!!
Mark you are a very sincere teacher in making the guitar simplified for those who really want to learn or for those who already know how to play, but never really went all out 100% and just want to learn more tips. I always click your links even though I don't play much these days due to old hands that don't work as good. I like inversions nowadays, bar chords are too hard on the thumbs. This lesson taught me about how the augmented chord trick works like the diminish chord, which I didn't know. Any other chord tricks that follow that repeating pattern technique?
Thank you so much. I appreciate the kind words!
Mark - you forgot to answer his Question at the end of his post!
Thanks
No problem
I like the progression. Nice lesson
Thanks!
Another great one by Dr. Z!!!
Glad you enjoyed it brother!!
Thanks. My band plays Peter Greens “Need your love so bad” The chords and feel are very similar 😎
That's cool! Glad to help.
That was amazing! I was getting ahead of what you were playing by guessing which chord came next and I was right.
Rock on!
Love you, bud
Thanks!
When I grow up I want to be like my rock star teacher
LOL! Two old folks and two "young'uns" in my band. It's great fun!
this is the right way
Nice sound
Thank you.
I don't see you a lot Zabal, Yet you do bring up this interesting subject.
When I looked at the thumbnail image I saw 3 note theory. I caution that a talk about double stops is a real good idea to think about before triads.
If you do take a look at 2 string theory I recommend Steve Lukather and Steve Stevens. "Lukather skip string double stops" are absolutely necessary. "Rick Beato lesson."
To impress Tom Scholz of course. Because if there's no Tom Scholz, I walk out. Buckethead is not blind to this fact.
Great video,of course, but would have liked the last little piece on how that helps with transposing.
Thanks. We'll cover transposing in multiple later videos. It's a more complex thing. This helps tremendously, because (for one reason) the guitar has that pesky nut ... below which you cannot play anything. That's the basics of it, but enough to know that you can't just slide up or down to do it. There's more, but it was already a much longer video than I usually do. CZcams is a fickle beast, but one thing is clear - telling 2 stories never works.
Thanks for the comment!
Great stuff, Mark, and one of my favorite chord progressions ever. Is there somewhere in the video where you explain what the "rule of 3" is?
Thank you! I don't explain it fully here, because it applies very broadly. However, the application here is that you learn the song in 3 places on the fretboard. (Based on E and A-string roots of the first chord).
What I call the Rule of 3 applies in many more instances - on the guitar and in life. Basically, the idea is if you know or do something in 3 different ways, you truly know it. Believe it or not, I took this from Enrico Fermi, the great physicist.
Oh, one last thing - it has nothing to do with the common superstition that "bad things happen in 3s". I *do not* ascribe to that idea! Ha!
@@MarkZabel Thanks for taking the time to reply. If I weren’t already a subscriber I would subscribe now. Keep the good videos coming. Btw, Someday After A While is the same progression, no?
@@mddelman My pleasure. Yes, "Someday ... " is very similar. A little simpler, but it's another one of those 6/8 slow blues with similar chord changes. Right on! It's another favorite of mine!
Weird question: why use a diminished or augmented chord at all? How does the songwriter know when to use these chords? Also is there CAGED for all chord forms (minor,
Minor 7, major 7, dominant 7 etc)
Good questions.
1. Diminished & Augmented chords. Songwriters know where and when to use these chords based on examples of where they've been used in the past. For example, diminished chords are often used as "passing chords" - chords played between 2 other more typical chords - to connect them. Augmented chords are often used as opening chords (E.g., "Oh Darling", "No Particular Place to Go".) or because they are very tense they can be used as replacements for the V chord.
2. Is there a CAGED for these forms. Sort of. It's the same CAGED. (Note: Here I'm advocating you do just 3 and you'll quickly improve. CAGED is fine, but in my experience the 5 forms of CAGED are often too much for people. 3 is enough.)
In practice, CAGED works exactly the same for majors and minors. I find it easier not to re-learn, say CAGED dominant 7, but rather, if I know a dominant 7 is a major with a flatted 7 added, then I really just start from the majors I know - instead of trying to remember a bunch of extra shapes.
Also, if you recall, in our first week of Rock Guitar from the Ground Up, we talked about how dominant 7th chords were THE sound of rock, so it's a good idea to know as many as possible. Don't limit yourself to CAGED shapes only. If you work at it, you'll find dozens - each one a goldmine of licks and sounds that work in rock.
@@MarkZabel thanks Mark! I better start at the beginning in 7ths. As is probably obvious, Jimmy Page is my favorite all around player/musician (I listen to everyone though) and a HUGE % of his fills and riffs (especially live) seem to incorporate 7ths as triads or partial chords which he slides all over the neck. I really need to master these
Great video! I know the Fleetwood Mac version of Need your love so bad. When I first heard Find another you by John Mayer I thought he was actually covering the song. They are almost a little too similar 😮. Thanks again!
Thanks! Yes, I grew up with "Need Your Love So Bad" and love that song. Those types of 6/8 slow blues are very old. Hoagie Carmichael's "Georgia on My Mind" is quite similar too. I think that was written in 1930. For my money, Freddie King did those best!
i liked this, though i thought it was going to be about transposing, do you have video on that :)
I may have done one years ago. There's one coming up shortly though!
The E augmented chord shown at 6:19 looks like a C augmented to me. Isn't the root on the A string?
Nevermind; I just noticed your explanation a couple minutes later in the vid. I knew about moving a diminished 7 but not an augmented chord.
Mark, you know I think the world of you and love your teaching - you've made me a better guitar player for sure. However, I believe that transposing isn't just moving the chords to a different part of the neck and playing the same progression but actually changing the key; so the A would become something else. This was a valuable lesson for sure but I don't think that you transposed that song. I learned the Nashville numbering system for transposing and do it on the fly often when gigging, especially in church!
Hi Joe. Thanks for the kind words. I hope I didn't imply that's what I'm doing here in this lesson.l. I said being able to easily transpose is a byproduct of being able to find chords easily anywhere on the neck. You've also got to know your keys, but that alone isn't sufficient.
In any event, thanks for keeping me honest.
Love your lessons Mark - thanks for your great work. In the E augmented chord shouldn't it be a B# instead of a C, since an augmented chord is build of major thirds. C would be a diminished fourth up from G#. If you use C then it's a C augmented chord. Sorry for being a nitpicker ;-)
Thanks. No worries. I would never think of it or teach it that way. I understand such things and learned them that way once upon a time, but it's not my style. I could go on, but I'll leave it there and refer you to 10:02 in this video for a brief statement of why I teach like this. Again, no worries at all. If that's your bag, definitely go for it!
What brand is your guitar? Sounds great!
It's a Sire Larry Carlton. I really like it!
@@MarkZabel Wow. Thanks. I need to look into those.
...how do you like your Larry Carlton Sire?
I like it a lot!
isn't this an early R&B chord pattern? also, isn't this a Little Willie John composition?
It's similar to a John Mayer song called "I'm Gonna Find Another You" off of his Continuum album. A good number of blues songs have similar progressions. Charles Brown's "Please Come Home for Christmas", Peter Green's "Need Your Love So Bad," and other 6/8 slow blues songs like "Ain't Nobody's Business" come to mind. "Georgia on My Mind" by the great Hoagie Carmichael is another one!
It's a great sort of progression to know and understand.
GOLDMINE channel!
Thanks!!
Pat Martino method?
Interesting. I don't know. I got the inspiration from Enrico Fermi for this. (The physicist - not joking!)
I never got into Pat's playing (though I acknowledge it's excellent), and he was certainly a deep thinker on the guitar. I remember when I first heard his recordings with Sonny Stitt. Shocking to me at the time. (I was introduced to Wes and Pat on the same day. Couldn't sleep that night!)
Capo ???
Have fun in Sweden! Say hi to Ola!
I will, thanks!
I don’t feel obligated to do covers just like original studio version.
The original artists themselves don’t
But changing keys can be annoying as others have pointed out, as it can change the character and/or feel of the song, partly due to different voicings you might use.
But when I have to do it, there are songs I find easy to transpose in my head and ones that are trickier.
Some have obvious patterns, but some songs are great to break out of those patterns
Swedish? Watch the movie Splash, especially the scene with John Candy!
Oh yes, she covered that phrase in the Skillshare lessons. LOL!
@@MarkZabel 😄. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable vacation.
@@Larrymh07 Thanks!
Hejsan från Sverige!
Hejsan froan New York, USA!
Sorry for the “stupid question “ but I thought transposing meant changing the actual chords going up or down into a different key? It looks like you just played the same exact chords but instead of root 6 chords you played root 5 chords? Thats just the same chords-how is it similar to transposing? Asking for a friend! 😏.
Thanks gang - be gentle with me. Lol
Or 95% of singers... Use capo. You have to learn to do the transfer on the fly. For their convenience.
Cheers bro u my buddy, u remind me of shhhhh sssteve jjjjjonnnnesz , u will know the one shuss , bro 🪶🐦👍
It’s not hard but takes years
It does take time. Maybe years, maybe much less. Depends upon the person. But doing it for just a few songs ... maybe 10 ... can make a huge difference.
Oh, not so easy. Barre chords are physically impossible for me.
Did you watch until the end? I address that in the video!
I would like to find a guitar channel where musical themes are discussed Via the numerical values... I don't have time to think or wonder.
when you say Amaj chord that means nothing to me. Is it a 1 chord a 3 chord ? the letter name of chords is meaningless and I don't understand why everyone is hellbent on discribing guitar lines with the nomenclature of less capable instruments.
If anyone can relate to my issue kindley point me in the direction on Teachers who are commited to the "Nashville numbering system"
Even if you use the Nashville number system, you're still going to need to know if the chord is major, minor, augmented, diminished, seventh, ninth, eleventh, and so on.
"Active Melody" uses the Nashville system a lot, but he also uses the notes of the chord. I don't think you'll find anybody who just only uses the Nashville system.
You might want to learn all the notes on the top string and then the fifth string; you can get by for a long time with just knowing that.
The names of the chords aren’t meaningless, they are literally setting the pitch of the sound you want to hear. The nashville system is for people who need to transpose quickly - session players or backing bands. It works by relating everything to a pitch in the first place
Wow, great video, but way over my head…
Thanks. At its heart, the method is ... learn songs in 3 areas of the fretboard. If you do that, you'll quickly get much better.
@@MarkZabel Ahh, thank you very much for that, makes more sense now--Thanks
@@Rico__B You bet.
Thats not 1 bit easy!!!!!!!
On the contrary - the idea is totally simple and beginners can do it: Take a song (any song ... choose a simple one if you like), learn it in 3 places on the neck based on the root note of the 1st chord of the song. That's it.
