Live Lesson! Chords in a Key (and more)
Video starts at the 3:00 mark
Hi Everyone!
I'm going live on my KZread Channel for the first time since the pandemic started. This time I've got my camera guitar and a nice little setup for teaching.
I'm teaching a lesson first, then I'm happy to field questions that might come up.
If you enjoy this lesson, I've got a weekly live Q&A like this on my Patreon every week. Most people think of Patreon as a donation site, but mine is a full blown music school. Learn more about it here:

Aww shucks
Just needed to applaud Scott for being willing to try a live lesson with all of the technology, including cameras, software, etc. and the risk of something going wrong. He's already the best instructor on here, but he's still pushing himself and elevating his channel. Kudos.

Wow! Thank you, Grace. I really appreciate that
Great job! This is single handedly one of the best explained and easy to follow theory lessons I've seen on KZread. This is absolute gold for anyone trying to get a better knowledge on the theory side of things.
This is the best music theory video lesson I have ever watched. Thank you for making music theory so entertaining. You taught me without me having to make an effort. You make it look so easy! I am a big fan! You rock Man!
SCOTT IS THE BEST MUSIC TRACHER .HE KNOWS HOW TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND MUSIC . THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORT
So good to see you back... Keep the content coming 👍
I learned from this guy about the guitar more than I ever learned from anyone else
He’s such a cool calm guy, watched a couple videos over the last couple days learned a lot, instead of just strumming endless chords with no knowledge
I’ve watched so many different teachers online, but you explain things in such an easy way for me to understand. Thank you!
Best teacher on KZread!!! Keep them coming Scott!
I assume that those with thumbs down are too good for this lesson. My question is that if you are too good or whatever for this amazing teaching, why did you show up here? If you didn't like it just move on and let us learn Slash, ok?
I’m 40 next month, and have been “ playing” since I was 13….love learning to expand from Green Day power chords. These lessons are great. Thanks very much!
Welcome back, the greatest guitar teacher!😆
So glad you’re back brother! Your lessons are so easy to navigate and learn. Don’t go missing you get again lol
You da man, Scott, don't sweat it
Yor caged video was one of the most valuable and helpful to me out of all videos anywhere. Thanks for taking the time my friend.
Great to see you again, Scott! Thank you for this.
You are my favorite guitar music teacher and I want to thank you soo much for all your content.
This video was so inspirational! Thanks, Scott! Please keep up the great content! :)
Great to see to uploading again. Your lessons have given me tremendous gains..way to go Scott🤟
Keep up the good work Scott! 👏 I have been playing guitar for 15 years but have pretty much just been stuck looking up tabs for songs I like and playing them. But your enthusiastic and accessible teaching style has made theory click for me which it never has before, and has slowly started to unlock a new level to my playing after YEARS of being stalemated. Thank you!
Your setup is insanely good. I cant say how much I appreciate it enough.
OMG you are the best! I’m 50 years old and I never got this from anyone else or any book. You even recapped just when I needed it.
You are an excellent instructor. You explain things in plain English and the knowledge transfers effectively. I know this because you answer my questions as soon as I think of them.
Absolutely outstanding!
You are back thank God..I learned playing Solo from this channel
WELCOME BACK MY DEAR FRIEND!!
Thanks Scott. Some of this was crucial pieces of the puzzle that I had been trying to put together for a while.
You're the best man. That's all that needs to be said.
i really wish i found this when you first put it out. helped me with a ton of the basic information that was always one of those you don't know what you don't know things, so i was never sure exactly what to search for. your a great teacher very clear to me
Definetly best teacher on you tube.Dont change yourself brother and friend you will be in the millions soon.Thank you so much!!
Scott, in my opinion, this has been the most valuable instructional video "ever" on KZread. Thank you! On my way to Patreon to sign up with great expectations! Thank you again!

Thank you so much! What else are you looking to learn?
I was asking myself about so many "why's" on how we ended up having chords by using multiple tones or keys. You explained the triads very well. Thank you for this kind of videos. I just started my guitar journey and you just help me a lot. Keep on making videos like these Sir
Amazing teacher, as usual.
There needs to be an award show for music teachers. Scott would demolish every teacher, every year. This man tops Marty, Steve Stine, Justin guitar, etc. The amount of joy Scott gifts people after every lesson needs to be rewarded. I look up to Scott even more than anyone on Rolling Stones top 100 guitar players of all time. Why? Because he gifts the knowledge of music theory and breaks it down for even the simplest mind, as myself, to comprehend. Scott Paul Johnson is a GOD and if anyone disagrees, well... well then you probably know all your theory and I sound like an idiot. BESIDE THE POINT, bottom line, Scott deserves a cult following and he shall be our leader.

Hey man glad to see you, I was with you from the beginning and I watched a vid of you talking about the pentatonic scale, i had been familiar with the scale way before your vid but, after the lesson you said now go and play some solos, I'm not sure why but soon as you said it I was like pentatonic solo oh yeah, yeah I can play pentatonic, and that was my first ever experience to soloing over chords by a simple sentence, you truly are a great teacher,. Thank you,,
Hey I'm 118 years old, and I am teaching myself how to play guitar, actually awhile back I used to play when Les Paul was young, back in the Fifties, when I was in my Fifties, I helped him build his first electric guitar out of an old Martin, a bull horn, wire and a handful of old TV tubes. Les got to messin around one day when I was out of town selling vaccum cleaners. Well he got that bull horn cranked up so loud that when he hit a major triad above the 12th fret, the neighbor's german shephard broke loose from his chain and attacked the mailman and half the letters in his satchel got chewed up. One of those letters was for me, from Chuck Berry who had just hit the charts with "Johnny Be Good." I wrote Johnny Be Good, and sold the song to Chuck, at a tavern in Memphis. Chuck sent me a hundred dollar bill that was completely chewed up by the damn dog. A hundred bucks back in the 50s is like $2,000 today, hell you could buy a damn fine used pick up truck for a hundred bucks, or pay six months' rent. So I got pissed off at Les Paul, we quit being pals after that and I quit playing guitar because of that damn first electrified guitar and I traveled around for the next 7 years with Roy Rogers, Trigger, Dale Evans and an old dude they called Fuzzy, because we would get together, sing with his Buckaroos, and they never used no damn electrified guitars, but they did use six shooters whenever they opened up the oven to see if the biscuits were done, they'd fan 3 shots with a - crack-crack-crack, and if them biscuits smiled and the bullets bounced back, they was ready to eat, what a tasty snack. So we wrote a song called the "Biscuit Blues." Les Paul wound up with a partner named Moore Jack, and they tried our stunt with the oven door, they opened up the oven to see if the biscuits were done, and Moore fanned four shots from a 44; well the biscuits smiled and the bullets bounced back, two hit Les and two hit Jack. They was buried out back and the headstone reads- "Here Lies- Les and Moore, shot themselves four times with a 44, No Les no Moore." Its been 60 years since I quit playing guitar but with your help I will be the best again.

Great job, I've never seen it illustrated so well.
What a superb lesson, just subscribed. Cheers.
Amazing lesson! Good to see you back! It's been too long.
Nice to see you back
This was Awesome, you are a fine instructor, I appreciate your passion for the art
More uploads scott thanks for this!
the king is back! 👑
Oh man, I’m so exited there is another video. For some reason, the way that you explain and demonstrate… It just clicks for me. I even had my 12yo daughter watch and she understood the lesson as well. We both started playing when we got guitars for“Covid Christmas 2020” and learning to play thru KZread has been a bit overwhelming and confusing. So let me say Thank You for the great videos and Thanks a million for being a great instructor.
Dude- you’re a gift to us!
