Everytime I think i know most of the shapes, BOOM sensei drops the secret to the 777 chords! Have you considered making a video on 9th and 13th chords I don't really understand them

Videos like these with shortcuts are invaluable for those of us coming from other instruments with a solid music background (jazz degree, sax)- easy way to sound competent very quickly- not to mention get more enjoyment right away.

Sean, you are a great! Even when I think I know the topic well, you explain it better, simpler.. which means, new ways to play better. On to check out the Yamaha guitar from sweetwater.

yep -that just opened up a whole lotta new stuff for me that I just really never thought of looking at chord charts or playing along with others in a key. Epiphany !!! Thank You Sean !!!

Great video lesson Sean! It will take a couple of "rewinds " but the content is so good. Thanks for bringing in some theory without it being overwhelming .

So glad it's coming across well!

Great stuff I only recently learnt enough theory to make this understandable so it makes sense and not confusing me.

Great Video Sean - Great way to memorise the root notes as well

Really nice specs on that Yamaha on sweetwater. I’ll bet the mic models are nice and can’t wait to try one.

Great video Sean! TY

Thanks so much!

I have a little different way of skinning the cat. If you know your triad shapes really well, use those familiar shapes. The seventh chords are always based on the third note of the key that you’re in. So for C major seven, it’s an E minor triad. Skip two more notes and C9, use a G major triad, and so on. Works well for me because the triad shapes are a great way to navigate the neck. Thanks for the lesson!

I've been doing private guitar lessons for 2 years and I can finally understand what you say. 😂😂😂 great content, love it. ❤

Beautify simple lesson,,, thank you, thank you, thank you 🍺🍺

Nice I have a Yamaha apx500 they're good guitars.

Oh no that was sponsored 😮 how can I trust any of this theory 😂

Just curious could you play the same chords but with the root note on the A string and move to G B strings just so you could use a chord closer to where you may be playing something on the fretboard.

This is not a bad introduction to shell voicings and I guess it’s geared towards very beginner players but it’s not economical at all to be going so drastically up and down the fretboard for your chord changes. Very important to learn these chords with roots on the A string too for this to be more practical for most players and they’re not that hard at all!

Very nice, do you have something like this for the other notes?

I don't know if that guitar is plugged in or not but it sounds really mellow. Thanks for what you do and share. Be well.

Thanks! It's just the aacoustic sound in this vid :)

Thanks Sean, I'm like that other comment, still like to see your perspective on other KEYS.

I just did a long lesson, a series actually on 7th chords root 6,5 and 4. My fretting stinks and my arthritis is killing me lol. These are great and the other thing that kills me is having to be shown? Shoulda known this. Thx!

So ah....how many of those who produced youtube quitting videos because of the "trend" have now actually quit? Remarkable how you generate the sarcasm between snippets of teaching points.

Thank you for the secret of making 7th chords easy lesson.

Hey Sean I'm confused as of what your playing at 13:15. You said "minor 5" are you switching to from D dominate 7 to D minor? Doesn't that include an F? or are you just playing a note that is out of the scale? Thanks!

If G is the people’s key, and C is perhaps the teacher’s key, I still need your perspective on the rest of the keys 😊

I been hearing that a lot lately. I never knew G was “the people’s chord “. I still don’t know why. I do understand why C is a common key for teaching.

Mind blown. My 6 string high E string is broken (because I don't use Elixir strings) So out came the 12 string. These sound great on the 12 string and I can mostly manage them. Thank you!

I have a older A3M. They excel when plugged in.

Very tool intro esque

I do the same on the higher strings.

Love Yamaha acoustics, I own one. Ya know, everybody's talkin bout the seventh son.😂

omg do a why I’m quitting KZread video! You could make it about down down up up down up…

Does this work for left handlers as well?😂

More of a jazz sound. It’s common to drop the 5 with jazz chords.

You seem to keep hanging on to that Yamaha..... do you play and scratch your head? Cheers

Sean, you said this is good for playing with other players or singers and said you would get back to that, but didn’t. (Not judging, just a point of clarification) I understand that with another player, it’s another voicing to avoid simple repetition of a sound. Is it the same reasoning for playing along to a singer?

He knows his stuff, but speaks too fast and needs to slow down.

I totally agree. Thankfully KZread allows you to slow it down, and you can pause and repeat. But he definitely speaks too fast and I struggle a bit. 😅

Slow him down to .075. He sounds like he’s inebriated but is much easier to follow
