Hello, I subscribe. Interesting channel. When I saw your video, at the first moment, looking for guitar tutorials, I came across this video and when I saw your photo, I said to myself: Wow! I found Johnny Deep!

I have been playing for 50 years. That was well presented.

Thank you

This is the most helpful video I've found on the CAGED system. Thanks man

YOU FINALLY MADE ME UNDERSTAND OMG!!

Holy crap that made more sense than any lesson I’ve seen or taken . Saved this video for sure .. it will be included i. My daily attempted patctices

So the pentatonic shapes kind of connect like a puzzle?

Man, it's the clearest explanation ever. Thank you for the help!

I learned this system about 23 years ago in a weird obscure book I happened to come across. No one I knew had ever heard of it, and I studied it judiciously for like a year straight. Before I knew it, I knew the guitar better than anyone I knew. Still do.

seriously one of the most informative videos ive watched!!

Thank you so much, Paul. I am a beginner and this is quite a bunch of help. I will dwell on this video for months to come auntil I improve soloing.

I never liked the caged system, why? because you would need to learn the notes anyway, and if you are learning shapes why not learning to play chords starting on a particular string, so a triad has three notes, so the G string could be the lowest string to make a chord, this way you understand root position and the 1st and 2nd reversal. the best thing about this is that the shapes will always stay the same.. Now if you know these then the arpeggio's you learn in major and minor start to make sense, the shapes will be hidden in the arpeggio's. caged system sounds too dull to my ears when you use it for soloing anyway. It is easier to add the extensions to the arpeggios and triads it just talked about when you know those. even shell chords will be easier to learn if you know where the 3rd and 5th are that make up for triads.

Thanks

You just made the entire fretboard look easy to navigate in 10 mins. I wish I had this lesson 15 years ago. Thank you!!!!

Great informative video! Guitar camera is extremely helpful and I loved that you had a backing track to play along with at the very end. It really tied the whole lesson together. Thank you!

This is an incredibly handy way to think of guitar. Awesome explanation man.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

This dude is the goat

Wonderful explanation and lesson. Though, all of these systems seem rather convoluted to me these days. I always teach bar chords and throw open chords out of the window, the fretboard makes so much more sense when laid out chromatically, additionally, when someone wants to learn how to solo; it makes much more sense laying out how all the boxes work. since one is already thinking about the fretboard chromatically.

Best instructional video I've seen🎉

Genius

just a huge thank you...that improoves my understanding and practice for solo

You are aewesome thank you from Brazil

YOU ARE A GENIIUS.... MORE VIDEOS PLEASE. ABOUT TRIADS AND MODES

🌱

I have watched soooo many videos on this & still quite confused but you just explain it so clearly. It just completely clicked for me. Ahhh thank you thank you thank you 🙏 😊

Man, that was not only the best video explaining the CAGED system but also how to effectively use it. Thank you so much!

Had to come back to this video over the span of ~1 year, but it finally clicked. Lesson: stick with it even if it doesn't click at first. Great video.

For someone is who is on the beginner side of playing a guitar (or instruments in general) this is probably the most instructive video on "why and how". This helps with finding chords before you know the specific name of them, playing with different ranges and really getting a feel after learning basic chords where we typically learn them.

You've given me so much more to utilize and learn, your videos are going to elevate my playing 100%. Thank you so much.

thank you so much, i've been playing for the past 4 months and just started learning the pentatonic scales. this has been so helpful in understanding everything, cant wait to start practicing again !

You’re in amazing teacher

this is like walking around in a dark room, and the lights suddenly flicks on...

Your eyes are blinded for a moment, and you're confused, but you have light now, and everything in the room comes to clarity...

Mindblowing...

what the fuck...this is mind blowing...

I don't get it

I don’t understand: is the caged system just a way to memorize the pentatonic scale patterns?
