    Jules, very few guitar teachers I've experienced on YT break things down so logically and efficiently as you do. Every video, regardless of the topic, has a gold nugget in it somewhere. Thank you so much.

    Wow Jules!!! You out did yourself! I wish I could press the Like button many more time :) This is an incredibly useful video. I don't think I ever saw a video like this not only how to connect the boxes but highlighting the strengths of each box along with these connections. What an Amazing video! I'll watch it many more times. If at all possible, please do the same for Major pentatonic, I know it's same boxes, but I suppose the phrase highlights won't be same. Thanks so much!!!

    Liking this video very much. However. Could not the TAB be presented so when viewed - the Nut is on the left - with the Low E string at bottom as per most online tablature tutorials? This would make things a lot easier! Thanks

    Hey Jules, great videos, I have been playing the guitar for many years, and your approach to the pentatonic scales and boxes is taking me to a whole new level. Is there somewhere where I can play your background tracks, the link does not appear on the screen when you say click the link? Great job, and thanks alot.

    I see that famous house pattern but when you move the house up 2 frets it supposedly becomes the B. B box. where is it in position three in this conversation? I mean how does it fit in here? can you or anyone say something about it? Who else thought of Badfinger's King of the Load, Day after Day and others throughout this lesson?

    I really enjoy your videos, very educational and helps me fill in the blanks. The fret board in the video below you guitar, is it supposed to be like that? What you are showing I learned upside down, and from left to right from your fretboard. Was I taught incorrectly?

    No, you were taught the standard way. He's trying to make it match with his fretboard in the video. I think. But then when you try to match it to your guitar, it looks confusing.

    Great video! The fretboard diagram confused me at first though. Until I realised it was reversed. I get you are trying to make it match with your guitar in the video but for anyone to follow along with this stuff properly they should have their guitar in their hands and then it won't match with their guitar. That's why nut on the left is standard.

    @@jamesivoryasarella2109 Yeah, like why use the original way the diagrams have been drawn in books and Tabs for hundreds of years when you can just change it and make people relearn it. Also, when people new to guitar, learn Tab/Diagrams the way it is presented here and then look up tab for their favorite songs on any guitar tab site or a book, they also have to relearn how to interpret it! That makes things nice and easy for everyone.
