Guitar Lessons

Eumir Abela says:

Why is the 7 chord, B, not used?

gheddi says:

Sorry i didnt understand it really with all the music words but I played the chords and it kinda fit? But minor major dominant 29th forth seventh dominant is just too much for my peanut IQ

Pter da wolf says:

If Dm is the one chord, does that mean G acts like a IV and Am a V chord?

Blues Man 63 says:

Very cool; I have heard those devices being played and never could figure them out.

tony other says:

Marty, there are many guitar tutorial videos here on YouTube, but you are one of the best.

Each has its own different style which adds a certain flavour to it, but – for me (I don't doubt there are some who hate you, though why I wouldn't know) – your enthusiasm and ability to persuade us none of it is as hard as it might look puts you there right at the top. So thanks. My particular interest is jazz guitar, by the way (so who are your favourite jazz guitarists, dead or alive?)

Now for my question: you always wear a hat of some kind. Why is that?

eNeNe says:

The stuff with the thirds on the E and B string as help in soloing is maybe THE BEST guitar advice I've ever heard.

Glenn Koger says:

TheGlassasylum says:

Randy Loehr says:

Love that strat

Frank C says:

I know this is an old video so I'm not sure if this is going to get a response, but would it be correct to draw from this that if I am playing a c major scale it could in effect be a variety of different modes depending on which chord is being treated as the 1 chord? For example, If I played a c major scale over that D chord it would be dorian, but if I played it over an A minor chord it would be aeolian, given that that is the 6 chord and aeolian is the 6th mode?

Harvey Roper says:

So by thinking of the Dm as now being the I chord, how does that affect building the chords? Would the C then become the vii chord and would the C become diminished because its the vii chord?

Ian Black says:

Those last few minutes though… when your friendly neighbourhood guitar teacher busts out a goddamn face-melter 0___o

Ross Miller says:

Hey Marty, listening from Australia. I am a blind guy playing lovely guitars but find your lessons so helpful and revealing. The clarity of your work is superb and always always appreciated.
