8 Different Ways to Visualize the Fretboard

'pinky for major, index for minor' WTF dude, how is it I NEVER realized this? Pure genius 😲

I feel 100% confident that I can say, this is the best guitar teacher out there period.

There is something very engaging about how you do this stuff. The angle you take is much more holistic and contextual. One of my biggest criticisms of guitar Teachers is they teach without context.

I first learned how to play the guitar when I was still in elementary school. I picked it up again in college. That was 40+ years ago. Your YT videos help me to refresh my memory or teach me some things that I never learned. In any case, your methodology works. When CV-19 is over, I will take some lessons again. Thnx.

Best teacher I've seen......finally someone that makes sense....

Thisone is definetely a keeper to rewatch over and over ! Thanks Brian

I subbed when you had about a little over 20k and thought this channel and your website was incredibly underrated. Now here we are and I still think the same thing. That pentatonic on-off really opened up a new perspective for me, I can already see how much time I’ll save by practicing that.

Brian, Your stuff is hands down the best Guitar lesson info I've ever found. I'm a bit embarrassed to say but I've been playing for 40 years (I'm basically self taught ) and still never fully understood scales, circle of 5ths etc. (forget any Modes!!) and decided to start teaching myself again. After (2) days of reviewing your videos, I've improved my improv soloing and creating simple chord progressions 100%!!! I'm somewhere in-between a Type 2 and Type 3 level guitar player. This sounds like a cheesy (fake testimonial) but I honestly got excited again about the guitar. So impressed, that I looked for a way to donate to your Youtube channel and realized you have a site and quickly signed up for a full membership. I look forward to diving in! - Rich

This is truly "The One Scale Lesson to Rule Them All"! I understand Bilbo Baggins hands are too small to apply any of this, but he still agrees with my summation.

Brian, you teaching method is great. Very simple to understand. I taught myself what you're teaching in this video. And I've learned quite a few techniques from your teaching. Keep up the great work. And thank you.

Pure genius. Best guitar teacher out there

3 notes per string has always been my favorite.

Dude, I love you. You explain challenging concepts in such simple ways. You’re incredible teacher. I’ve been learning a lot from you lately. I really appreciate it.

This is really best summarise of patterns so far.. thank you 🙏

Your genuineness is easily detectable and you teach very humbly. Like I can tell you enjoy helping people. Keep it up. I found you via Facebook and your lessons always teach me something I didn't know or demonstrate it from a different point if view, Thanks!

Among the thousands teachers on Yt i found your communication to be the most effective, clear and targeted ever. I admire your teaching skills and i will consider your lessons site next days. Thanks a lot and keep it up Brian! Greetings from Italy!

Last part is gold

Very cool the way you linked this to your website lessons, and showed where to find more!

Thank you Mr. Kelly

Man I've been playing guitar for like 10 years and in that time all I did was learn songs via guitar tabs. Sure, I got decent enough at playing but that entire time I had no idea what I was doing. This past year I've barely played at all because it got to a point where I had learned most of the songs I ever wanted to and the fun kind of faded. Recently my dad suggested a Savatage song to learn, but there weren't any tabs for it so I decide to look into the theory of learning songs by ear. I stumbled upon your video, and something about the way you teach, made me really interested in theory and I have learned more in just these past few days than I think I ever have in my time playing. In just 3 days I learned about key signatures and how to find them, you made complete sense of the caged system and it clicked for me, I've learned all the pentatonic positions and can improvise in any key, I can write chord progressions that sound good, I know how to build chords and how to change them into different variations, I understand the circle of fifths, and I've made my own backing tracks to jam to. All basic stuff to seasoned veterans, but it's a great start for me considering I couldn't do literally any of that a week ago (and I'm having the time of my life). Definitely the best guitar teacher I've ever learned from. Thank you Brian
