I just clicked on this I really love the sound you're getting out of your combination. I've always been a straight up player just some reverb no pedals nothing else I'd like to try that sound you're getting I generally play off a strat but I have several other kinds of guitars but not a tele. Some Ideas would be gladly taken into consideration. I plug you everyday into a pretty much modern crate but ever since I was in high school which is in started nineteen-seventies my main day was a fender bassman which I just played clean channel still in great shape it's just a bit much to lug around .

@@tomstulc9143 Fender Bassman sure would sound good. But my back and arms can't lift it haha. I use a Deluxe Reverb, or even just a pedal ... the UA Dream 65. I can't tell the difference.
I feel like I've finally come across the right person to help me understand « the big picture», to explain it to me so that I finally understand. I've been watching guitar videos for years and I'm constantly improving and I'm already having a lot of fun, but now I understand the logic a lot better, how it works, how this language works. Seriously, a huge thank you from Quebec 🙏😄

I am absolutely devouring this lesson. I like how you just riff around the shapes instead of teaching a particular tune. One of my (many) flaws is once I learn a lick or a pattern I tend to go back to it instead of noodling around. In the past few days my noodling with this lesson has greatly increased my fret board knowledge. Perfect lesson at the perfect time in my development. Awesome job!

This may be the single most valuable guitar lesson I've ever learned! Connecting those chords to scale shapes... so effortless and easy! Thanks! You've unlocked something that I was missing. Been noodling around with ideas on this for hours now!

I have been playing guitar for 20 years, but Blue is simply a phenominal teacher and a lot of his ideas and techniques never occured to me. I Just bought his book 5 seconds ago to see what else I don't know. I still have trouble connecting the geometry, but just a few lessons here and I have made a major leap. Thank you for these awesome lessons and new way to approach guitar. Jake - Colorado.

This is one of the most helpful videos I've seen on KZread for learning guitar! I've been playing for about 15 years with a 4 to 5 year break in the middle when my daughter was born. This just made something click in my mind finally and instantly made me a better guitar player! Thank you so much! I have one question still though. Is there a video teaching how to do this in minor keys? Thanks again!
So many great things here, but anytime you can make me "not have to think," you've solved 95% of my issues!
