I wished every guitar player would watch this video. I played guitar for 10 years and never got anywhere. Entail. I learned the fingerboard on the guitar and started reading music. I started reading music in 1984. This is the best way to learn. You learn all the notes in all the chords, and all of the notes on the guitar. It was quite an accomplishment for me, I’ve been playing since 1974 I love guitar I love music. And reading tab and reading music. I’ve come along way I am now a solo instrumental guitarist. I think people like you on CZcams that show people the correct way of playing a guitar. Sorry for the lengthy comment but I have a lot to say on this situation. All of you beginners do one thing learn to read music. Thanks for the video. Have a great day.👍🏼👍🏼😎❤️🎸
Don't worry about the length of your comment, it sounds like you've built up wisdom over the years. It's nice to know someone like yourself will still watch my videos . . thank you very much your comments are very much appreciated. Have a great new year . . 😊😀
This is probably the best ,easiest and best explained way to memorize the notes on a guitar I've yet seen. Thank You!
You're very welcome! thank you 😊
I will agree completely with you!
Me too
Yes, my thick head actually soaked it up 🤪
I totally agree with your comment. With this tutorial learning seems so easy! Thanks you so much
I feel from 0 to much better knowing about the notes and theory and the best part is I remember every thing. Beautifully explained got straight into my brain. Thank you .
Thank you very much . . that's really encouraging to hear 😊😃
you sir, are a genius and an amazing teacher. no needless explanation or confusing terms, straight and to the point. perfect.
thank you very much indeed 😊😃
Except that he didn't explain how to memorize the notes at all, only how to identify them based upon the notes on the low E string and the octave pattern, a useless method when actually playing the instrument. You simply do not have the time. You must be able to identify each note by sight immediately. Anything less is grossly insufficient.
@@noclouds111 Why use the octave pattern at all? Look at a note diagram. He's teaching the octave pattern as a way to find notes. Wrong. Go ahead, try and play that way. Fumble about looking for your roots. Unless you're playing against a slow groove, it's going to sound like something slowly moving thru the groove of your ass.
This is the best....I mean the best fret memorization scheme explained to guitar beginners. I had no idea on how the different notes are located until 11 minutes ago. Thank you!!!
You're very welcome! thank you 🙂
OMG! OMG! Been playing guitar chords only 40 yrs had no idea - self taught - Today, the light bulb went on!!!
me too
EXCELLENT tutorial. I've taken so many classes and lessons, and have never had the fretboard so clearly explained. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! 😊😊
Very comprehensive! Learnt a lot in just 15 minutes than the past 2 years since I begun learning how to strum the guitar 👏🏼👏🏼
Glad it was helpful! thank you 😊
This has to be the best lesson, i've seen a lot of them but this one will make me a good guitar player, I thank God for creating you
Thank you very much . . I never heard that before 😃
No nonsense or fluff, clear as a bell explanation! Didn't know anything at all about it and after a few minutes,
I learnt a lot!
That's great, thank you 😀
Though I have that knowledge already, I wish I had this a long time ago. This is a MUST for every guitarist. Excellent.
Thank you very much . . 😊😊😊
Thank you. After lots of years with not a single care of learning notes or music theory, your explanation is making things so much easier for me now when I started to learn all this stuff. Really thank you!!
that's great, thank you . . 🙂
Not to denigrate other channels because everyone has his own way of learning but...this video is so logically explained that if I didn't understood I would have doubt of my learning capabilities ...in that note;don't worry if you don't understand at first,just keep rewinding.
Thank you very much, now I can with confidence learn 'more ' about music.and...as always the best teacher is not the most appreciated because you only have 141thousand subs while others have millions...not fair
Thank you very much. I teach the way I have to learn, so it has to be logical and clear. Obviously I would like more subs but I don't pay for advertising like other channels and that way I can keep as much free as is possible. 😊
"Ed's A Dog. Good Dog Ed" is my mnemonic. For most of 63 years, I've glanced at the fretboard and fallen immediately into unconcsiousness. Undisturbed, dusty guitars. Today, in a couple of hours, I committed all this to memory. What a great help. 12 frets, 7 notes. It ain't gonna kill you. Thanks a million!
That's great . . thank you for watching 😊
Ed’s a dog good boy ed
The best of all guitar lessons I have ever watched. I bought a guitar yesterday after watching this and I am sure this will help me learn how to play it..Thank you so much and much respect.
Wow, thanks! 😀😀
Let us know how it goes, OK?
Thanks.
I did not want to subscribe to another guitar channel, but the clarity of this lesson made it impossible not to. Thank you!
Thank you 😊😃
I didn't think that a voiceover using a pictorial feature as opposed to a video of a tutor with guitar in hand would present itself as such an understandable way of portraying this subject. However, this tutorial is brilliant. I've been struggling with learning the fretboard for a while now but this is as clear a tutorial as I've come across, thank you!
Thank you . . 😀
I am new to the guitar and very happy that I found this video, suddenly learning the notes on the guitar was demystified. Thank you GHC Guitar Academy , you are an excellent teacher.
wow . . thanks . . 😊😊
This is the best, thank you so much.
You’ve simplified this very well to the point I’ve just about have it down in a couple
Days! Once again thank you!!
Thank you very much . . . 😊
I ve generally heard that learning music helps in learning math and science. I think its true.The best explanation on you tube.
Wow, thanks! Yes, learning music and a musical instrument also helps prevent dementia in older people . . 😊
If I would have had a guitar teacher in my youth, who approached learning the instrument like GCH GA, I think I would have reached my goal of learning the instrument.
For those of us who cannot afford private lessons, the information you share on this platform is much appreciated. Thank you.
Thank you very much . . . it's nice to know the lessons are useful 😊😃
I have been trying to learn this for months and this video was the easiest explanation that I have ever heard. Thank you soooo much!!
You're very welcome! thank you 🙂🙂
This should be compulsory viewing in any guitar school, simply superb concise information. Well done.
Thank you very much indeed . . 😊
After all these years of trying to learn the fret board ...it was simply explained here....so easily. THE BEST lesson on the fret board by far IMO. Thank you!
Glad it helped! thank you 😊😊
Great and simple to follow guitar notes lesson!
You made it so easy to remember and locate the notes on the frets, thank you!
You're very welcome! thank you 🙂
Thank You for taking time to explained this in school I took all shops I could and arts but not music I took guitar lessons when 12 Iquit at age 18 played in Church all the time now I'm 61 years old I really needed this so I now have great understanding You explain better than anyone on CZcams videos in detail I've seen
Thank you very much . . . it's an honor to be helpful . . 😊
Perfectly explained. This did it for me. Thank you!
That's really good to hear, thank you 😀
I have been looking for this for a while. Wow this makes it so simple
that's great to hear . . 😊
I am quite new to guitar and the fret board has been a mystery until now. Having watched many videos that were way over complicated, yours has done the trick. Thank you very much for that clear explanation.
Glad to help! thank you very much . . 😊
Thank you so much for this this is the best explanation I have seen presented in 40 years and will be so helpful so cheers again.
Wow . . thank you very much indeed . . 😀
Clear and concise ... as always. Cheers Gareth!!
Thanks Phil 😃
About six minutes into your presentation we here at GGG want to thank you so much for mentioning about the octaves. We never quite got that as far as octaves doubling or tripling or losing a band of frequency and now you’ve clarified that for us ⚡️ 🔁🔊
It's great you got something good from the video . . thank you . . 😀😀
Finally!!! After 2 months, I find there is ONE site that explains the "Mystery" of the Notes and how to navigate the Fretboard. Turns out I did work ALOT to mark notes correctly but didn't know for sure til now... Thank You...
Thank you too . . 🙂🙂
I've been a "shade tree" picker & grinner for over 50 years.....about time I took the time to actually learn the notes. Thanks so much for this tremendous video.......you've just made this an enjoyable and certainly "do-able" adventure!!!
Glad to help! thank you . . 😊
By far the best I have found, detailed explanation of notes.👍👍thank you...
Thank you 😊
Excellent Video! Apologies for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Rozardner Stopping Sounds Reality (google it)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for transforming you into A guitar legend without the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my old buddy Taylor got cool success with it.
Absolutely superb lesson. Thank you! So logical, straight forward, and understandable.
Thank you very much 😊😃
Wow. You are an outstanding teacher. Best lesson I have seen. You unpacked this perfectly. Thank you! Following and I will be donating. Fantastic.
Thank you very much ! 😃
Well, you must be the clearest most understandable music theory teacher I have come across. Even though I mostly knew the content of this video you explained it in such a good way to anyone who doesn’t understand music. Most theory even though written in English may as well be in a foreign language as normally makes no sense whatsoever, but you my friend just explained the note position in a way anyone would understand. Just subscribed and going to hunt out some of your videos on stuff that generally baffles me, hoping you will make sense of it for me. Thank you.
Thank you very much . . that's really nice of you to say . . . 🙂
very clear teaching,thank you!!😍
Thank you 😊
Thank YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE
My pleasure! Thank you . . 🙂🙂
Thank you for all you're passion and talent ! Quite simple and easy to learn with your technique.
Many blessings, Maestro!
You are very welcome, thank you very much 😃
I really appreciate it. I watched a lot of videos about the topic and I couldn't understand until I came across yours...… boom! I got it even before I watched the update. a simple and clear way to solve such a problem for newbies like me..... thanks a lot.
Wow . . thank you for you feedback. That's great to hear, and thank you for watching and commenting . . . 😃
I absolutely loved it! Thank you very much for creating this video!
Glad you enjoyed it! thank you very much 😊😃
That is the tutorial best I have come across yet for fret note learning... Coming from a 4 string violin. This has helped me understand so much better the Guitar octaves. Thank you!! I learned more about my Fret Board in 10 minutes than I had in 3 months.. Well done!
Glad it helped! thank you 🙂
Yes......the very best. Simple, easy to remember. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! thank you 😊

Wow, thank you 😊😃
Thank you for this lesson. When I was asked in a group of guitar students what I would wish another guitarist fellow, I said “learn the notes of the fretboard, it is not difficult and would substantially increase your knowledge in learning many things on your guitar! You’ll love it! All the best for this coming 2024 and Thank you for your lessons!!!
Thank you very much for your feedback . . I hope we all have a great year ahead 😊😀
Wow, this is fantastic, this exactly what I am looking for, been searching a lot of good explanation but you are the best sir, more power!!

Hi my friend
It is amazing how good some people are at teaching.
I'll take that comment to my next job interview . . . 😊😂
Thank you for the detailed explanation. Much appreciate your time in putting this video together.
Glad it was helpful! thank you 😊
The 2 down and 2 over with the 2 down and 3 over patterns are what I needed to know. A light bulb moment. Thank you for this knowledge!
Glad it was helpful! thank you 😊
Watched 5 minutes and subd. I instantly knew that this is the good stuff!
That's great . . thank you for subbing . . 😊
THIS IS AWESOME! Beginner here... and I've played around many times off and on throughout my life but I have never had someone explain it this way. I have become discouraged in the past feeling overwhelmed by this and the way you just broke it all down makes it seem so much less daunting. Thank you for sharing and for making it so simple to understand. The visuals and your explanation have opened my eyes. Even more excited to continue learning.
That's great . . I'm glad it was helpful! Thank you 😊😃
@@guitar-academy what she said
Many years I've attempted to learn the guitar and I have enjoyed it but not learned much. Yours is the first time I've heard of the 2 string over and up 2 and the other pattern on the fret board. I actually will remember that and will finally find the notes with much less difficulty. You have made my enjoyment increase. Thank you.
Thank you very much . . I'm so glad you find the lessons useful . . 😀
So I didn’t have a guitar where I listened last night. This morning when I got home I was using the tips and almost laughing at how much easier it is now to learn all the notes . Thank you for doing this it’s a game changer !
That is awesome! thank you 😊
Wow you are amazing now I know all the notes and that way you describe is was wonderful thanku so much
Thank you 😃
The BEST explanation ever, I just bought my first guitar last week, after watching at many many videos explaining notes, I lost hope that I can ever learn all the notes on a guitar, but, after watching your video and your explanation, and now after two days, I can play all the notes without any problem. Thank you very much, you give me a hope that it's not to late even for me at 56 :)
NO, my best students have been not young . . Thank you so much for your feedback. A here's a little help/encouragement for you, at the same time as learning the notes also try some tab because it will get you playing basic tunes more quickly and that will keep you interested . . here's a video to start you. czcams.com/video/QefpS2OSZwI/video.html 😀😀
@@guitar-academy Thanks, I appreciate it very much
Well, I'm 64 and just picked up the guitar and would like to express the same sentiment as Bobby J. I had watched a lot of videos and had already started to memorize the E and A fifth and sixth string notes when I stumbled across your theory explanation on Octave patterns and was like thank you, Jesus! :) Got it thanks again muchly appreciated.
BEST EXPLANATION OF ALL GUITAR STRINGS, FRETS, I DID NOT SEE IN ANY LESSON FOR BEGINNERS.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you very much 😊😊
Im a beginner guitar player. I have looked at so many youtube videos on how to remember the notes on the guitar, brought so many books etc. I was about to give up

Happy to help! thank you . . 😊

I wish I had known this when I 1st started playing in 1964 instead of trying to reinvent the wheel and just stumbling around in the dark. It wasn't until I started taking lessons years ago.I learned" Even After Drinking Good Boys Eat "
LOL . . another new one . . that's a good one 😀
I watched about five fm videos and this one finally explained and showed it in a way I understood👏🏾👏🏾
that's great, thank you 😊😃
hands down the best video i found to learn all the notes on the guitar. im still a beginner and finally have the feeling of understanding and memorizing all the notes. thank you!

@@guitar-academy that's the plan
An amazing and simplified approach to learning notes on the keyboard. Suddenly the correlation of the black keys on a piano takes a new meaning in the context of the guitar neck note arrangement. Thank's a heap! Cheers
thank you very much 😊😊
This is One of the Greatest Guitar Lesson Video in CZcams..!👏👏👏🙏🏻
wow thank you very much . . 😀
One that I found more memorable is Every Acid Dealer Gets Busted Eventually
But i find more easy on every beautiful girl deserve an eye.
It's really easy if you learn your perfect fourth intervals.
That's the one I was taught. :)
Eat Acid Daily Get Baked Eternally
This was a great program. I was a lead singer/writer over 25 years, but I've played guitar longer. I'm fairly decent at rhythm having taught myself starting with Elvis, then Beatles, Wings, Who and other great classic rock from 50's through 70's
I never became real proficient because I didn't have the patience to learn any theory.
I was great at parties with the acoustic and used my acoustic to write dozens of solid songs, but rarely played acoustic or electric live, and knew zero soloing.
Now I'm retarded...er I mean retired and at 57 but don't look at day over 56 and a half, I've got time to learn! This really helped, I am actually learning new stuff (for an old dog) and having fun doing it!
Thank you brother!
