Exactly! He just bulldozed a roadblock of mystery that stands before possibly millions of guitarists. I am an instant fan of his brilliant ability to simplify and apply a concept that most complicate.

I'm a bass player. I never understood the circle of fifths. After playing bass for 10 years I decided to teach myself keyboards. All of a sudden the circle of fifths became easy and using it on the Bass fretboard became easy. Everybody should learn keyboards because it's a great way to learn music theory.

I am really enjoying your style of teaching. I would like to add another way to use the cycle of fifths for finding notes on the guitar neck. Reverse the cycle and use the flat notes. You get BEAD GCF followed by BEAD G again only now flatted. This pattern goes across the neck and wraps around continuously. Foe example on the 7th fret you get: B on the 6 string, E on the 5 string, A on the 4 string, D on the 3 string, G on the 2 string (after you shift down to the 8th fret because of the warp) then C on the 1 string. Start back on the 6 string 8th fret and repeat the C. F on 5 string, B flat on 4 string, E flat on 3, A flat on 2 string, D flat on 1 string. Slide back to string 6. Repeat D flat. G flat on 5 string, then BEAD on the next four strings always sliding down one fret as you cross from string 3 to 2

"Stay Awake" great advice.

Very easy to do as you just jam. Something I have struggled with for decades is "staying awake". This is a great video. Thank you for putting in the effort.

I was going to comment about going backwards for circle of fourths, but watching the whole video and you covered it. Thanks for fresh insight

An excellent, unusual treatment of the circle of fifths. Will dig into this, striving to see the neck as not just a bunch of notes (which I do now).

Best circle of fifths explanation I’ve seen. I had a good chunk of it understood already, but I NEVER thought about writing it down down like you had it at the bottom of the screen. That makes it so much easier and less of a nightmare to take in. So yea, I had to throw that down on a piece of paper and I’m gonna mess around with it and see what I can do.

Good news everyone. The Circle Of Fifths is increasing pitch. The "backwards" of counting 4ths is also increasing pitch. NOT DOWN OF PREVIOUS UP. BTW simple whole number multiple of a note's frequency, the "overtone series" generates notes in much higher "octaves" (eight) A doubling or halfing of a note frequency yields the same note a "octave" higher or lower. So you keep dividing an overtone by 2 until it is less than double of the frequency you started with. The Overtone Series is used only to generate the pitches of the 7 white piano keys in the octaves which are numbered starting on C, C1 is the lowest C on a piano, C2 is an octave (doubling of frequency) higher and 8th note of 7 different note octave labeled C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 A1 B1 C2 . C4 is "Middle C" between the Treble Cleff (G Cleff) and Bass Clef ... Whoops, lunch time.

Chris! Thank you once again for another great video. Every day I write dow the circle of 5ths to memorize it on my mind. Apply the theory to the fretboard is the challenge. This video helped me out how to connect patrons using the circle too. I tried the chords in 5th progression from Hey Joe, it was a great discovery! More than that, I just realized that the phrase in Hey Joe came out linking patrons C to G.
