NEVER GET LOST on the fretboard again!

Finally, you're THE guy that puts it all together. Thank you so much!

Outstanding lesson! absolutely Outstanding! I already used this, but I havent seen anyone else point out paying attention to the E and A string. you are an awesome teacher. keep going!

Thank you. Love the way you get concepts across. You remove the 'cobwebs' and help 'declutter' many years of learning on you tube.

So much to absorb, but WOW, when all the pieces come together ... 🤯 Mind blown !!! Blue, you have such a relaxed and friendly style of teaching. I'm loving it.

thank you for this lesson!

Memorize this and you will be a lead guitarist. Maybe not Eric Clapton, but on the way.

another great video. I’m just having trouble ciunting when to stop to a root

Man! Where have you been! Only one to explain all this!!

I am so glad I found you!!!!

Nailed a lesson again. I’ve got lots of bits of this that I practice, and link some of it up, but this completely mapped it out lucidly and simply. Thank you so much

good connections.

The root is the nut, think of it as a virtual capo

You have an amazing way of explaining and connecting things. Learned a ton from a half dozen videos. My only critique as a student would be when you use your terms like "funny b-string shape" remember to call it box 4 in case that is the way others learned it. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

Thanks for this big idea..I am always getting lostbut you give me the idea now to keep my eyes on the notes on the e string because those four notes is so distant from the others, when you go on those four notes you would get lose quite easily, wondering which pentatonic you are in....THANKS

Even when you play from the A string - you are still playing the easy or Symmetrical shape - except you shift for the B string

This is excellent.

May I just say that you are a fantastic teacher. I'm not a beginner really but neither am I an intermediate player. I was finding it impossible to navigate the fretboard. Have watched some of your lessons on this and am starting to understand a little better. Thank you very much.

Wow so visual and mind freeing, thx as always for this valuable lessons you make 🤩

Bester Mann! Thanks from Germany

i,ll add it to my strat - egy thanks

your doggy is loving this lesson, what,s his name?

🎉 this one’s fire!

I got clearly ur DEMO!

I love this guy’s teaching style

I know the 5 pentatonic shapes and I love how you explain them in this video. Your diagrams make the concepts very clear. This video gives me confidence to start soloing and have some fun. Thank you so much. I'm so glad I found you online. Craig Ewinger

Definitely one of the best guitar teachers on you tube. Most guitar teachers do the same thing as everyone else. You come at it from a different angle. I don’t do this very often but I’m going to subscribe to your Patreon. Oh. Hello from Chilliwack.

I have seen millions of YT videos but this lesson really stands out. I thought I knew the best YT teachers until now… I have subscribed to your Patreon after watching some more videos. There is so much to learn. Congrats for your style , your approach, the visuals, the music, etc… excellent job.

Good lord man. I’ve spent all this time (decades) noodling around stuck in easy shape and extended shape because I was afraid I’d get lost. This was a eureka moment. Thanks! Subscribed.

Ditto to what I said one year ago!

Oh man! i put together charts a few years ago when i started teaching myself, this affirms a lot of what i thought and just helped me click SO much together. Don't know how long i've had this video in the 'watch later', but man am i happy to be watching it now. Thank you so much

I started understanding a lot of things, which seemed abstract to me for quite a while, after watching your videos, so you started unlocking for me the whole chain of unconnected things which I was not able to connect myself

Perfect

Most important thing: You gotta put the work in and give it time. Build a rock solid foundation with one shape and then venture out from there. And there is still more to discover to lay down a good solo: phrasing, playing to a chord progression, double stops, bends, slides, blue notes, licks, combining rhythm with licks, etc. I'd say 100-200 hours of concentrated practice over six to twelve months should get you quite far. But you'll still have to put in the work!

Thank you for the excellent explanation@

I've been playing guitar since I was 12, just metal stuff mostly. I'm almost 50 now. About 10 years ago I memorized the pentatonic up and down the fret board but never really did much with it. Then I started up about a year ago and though it seemed like I didn't do much it payed off. I had established a lot of techniques over the years and was very good at chords and strumming rhythm. I find your explanations almost validating because as I start to get more involved I'm finding a lot of what your saying is how I'm starting to figure things out. I think you touch on how the brain prefers to figure things out like this. This is early intermediate stuff that is hard to find. It's either guys making it way too simple like learn everything with 3 easy licks or too mind bending.

Keep up the amazing work Blu

At 63, I have new guitar revelations now that I found this channel. Keep up the great (lessons) work. 😃

Fantastic video. So simple. Thanks! Just found your channel a few days ago and I'm so glad I did.

gotta tell you, I am just getting back to the guitar and was hoping to find someone who just makes it plain easy to understand that fretboard specifically for minor and major pentatonic scales, intelligently using visualization as a technique. I just found it. Well done, I will be viewing your future vids

Wow this is so great. Thanks

Has anyone seen the paid in full receipt ?

Nice theres the little house. Blues. Looking like John Mayer scale. The you add the blue notes. Nice lesson

Fretboard is easy to remember... there's 4 boxes of a-g just remember where the 4 boxes are and you'll never forget the notes on the board

There are things that you may know but when someone explain it to you in so smart way, you appreciate some nuances and perspective that you might missed before. Thanks for your work on this!

So brillant, best video in the world on that topic. Moreover, your English is so crystal clear for foreign viewers... cheers from France
