I think it's always helpful to beginner guitarists to show them the chord shapes that lead lines can be based in. For example, the slide up to the Em using a Dm shape moved up to the 3rd fret, and an Am slid up a couple of frets.

I've been doing this in a way for months now, but you put it in a way better context, I really appreciate it man, this really helps expand on what I've been trying to do with out even realizing it, thank you sir.

No need to practice scales for more than a couple minutes a day. Start finding some riffs with those notes. Practicing should be about making music.

Best guitar tutorials on KZread. Great knowledge and easy to follow along. I've found I start with your principles and start something of my own. Very helpful advice cheers Tony

@GuitarME Yer man, I've played with alot of different people from all over the world when I was backpacking. I picked up different bits and pieces but never really understood how it fits together until I looked into the basics on the piano. Its been the same as trying to learn off my good mates who are computer nerds everything computers. The info is always in a code, and the important parts skimmed over to hide the real knowledge they keep for themselves to feel special. But you have got the format of teaching nailed down, short enough to watch and practise daily and more than enough information and explanations to help expand on your own sounds and ideas. Extremely well done, and I've told everybody who wants to learn the guitar to watch and subscribe. 👍

Hello there, never come across you or your learning platform for guitarists, which I have played for a few years now, bass as well to but I found using the Em scale around Em Am I was coming up with new ideas ide never used beforehand, thanks 💙

This was much more useful than I thought it would be. Been playing guitar more than 40 years but I’m still always learning.

Nice! Thanks for keeping it simple! Longtime harmonica player, I have always loved the guitar but found it so hard to learn. I am an older guy, I believe I am just scratching the surface, I haven't given up, and I must make time to practice to acquire the"muscle memory" in my hands. Thanks again, Tony! I know I must practice, fighting off fatigue is my biggest challenge.

This is so priceless. You're a good player. I enjoyed listening. What fascinates me most is that I, and many other young white kids in the American southeast, were listening to and playing these same blues licks back in the 1950s and early '60s. In the early '50s when we first heard artists like Elvis Presley, we thought, "Hey, this sounds a lot like the black man's blues." I later learned that Sam Phillips, who discovered Elvis, also discovered Howlin' Wolf. The problem then was no other white teens in the U.S. were listening to black blues artists except we kids in the southeast (AKA deep south). We didn't know why not. Suddenly in the '60s, the British invasion introduced bands from the U.K. who appreciated blues. Artists like Eric Clapton were teaching my fellow Americans the music I had grown up loving. People in Europe were praising legendary black blues artists: John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, and so on, as they toured outside the U.S. I met John Lee Hooker at a lounge in Birmingham, Alabama one night and asked him what he thought of Animals lead singer, Eric Burdon. He said, "Oh, Eric? He's my man!" Hahaha. At the annual Blues Competition in Memphis, Tennessee 20+ years ago, I saw artists from Japan to Scotland performing. I was glad even though blues had taken decades to catch on. Thank you for this video showing that blues is still popular over there. Keep the blues alive my friend and teach the younger generations.

I dig it

My fingers are so fat I've had to adapt my own chords. Especially on electrics. Em I use my middle fingertip. That's all! Am I use two fingers. My middle covers two strings and my index holds down one. And that finger is moved up behind my middle so the open strings are clean. Like for an A7 I have to use the very tips of my ring finger and pinky because they're the skinniest to keep the open strings clear. Etc. It works. It works well.
