-1-
The Fretboard Method
My approach to learning the note layout of the fretboard, as well as mandatory basic fundamentals of music. This also contains my Left-Right-Center scale method.
Start here if:
You are not comfortable with the note layout of the fretboard, or with scales/intervals.
-2-
Playing & Playing Over Chords in a Key
(PPOCK)
My guide to understanding what a Key is, the chords that live in the key, how to write with/play over those chords, and all of the unique sounds that exist within. This will cover 80-90% of all music you have ever heard.
Start here if:
You are comfortable with finding notes on the neck, scales, intervals,
But are not comfortable with chords in a key, soloing over chord changes, how notes function over chords, how progressions are made, larger chord voicings, modes.
-3-
Building Chords
My guide to creating any chord you want from scratch. We will focus on inversions, small and large shapes that can be used as chords or as lead figures, and creating progressions with these shapes while featuring out-of-the-key transition chords.
Start here if:
You are comfortable with the fretboard, how keys work, all chord types, and the basics of playing over all chord types,
But are not comfortable with playing any chord anywhere/inversions/transition chords/chord melodies/out-of-key harmony.
Alongside these main sections, below is supplementary material also available to patrons that you may enjoy:
Song Analysis
Long form analysis videos of songs/sections of songs that patrons select. Every once in a while I will open up a submission week where I will make a video on every submission given within that week. Click the image for a full list of available videos.
Two Different Livestreams
1.) Patron only YouTube monthly livestreams where I hang out and answer any questions you may have. These livestreams are archived and rewatchable for your convenience!
2.) Weekly Discord livestreams that are basically group sessions where any patron can show up, turn on their webcam/mic, and hang out with me in real time. You can use these streams as a weekly check in with me to make sure you're on the right path with your practice, and have any questions you may have answered in real time!
Things You Should Be Doing
Covering some more vague and tough ideas such as the various stages of learning, the importance of muscle memory, not being afraid to learn hard things, and more.
Patron Only Discord
A fantastic forum of patrons, all on their own music and guitar journey. This is where I'm hanging out most of the time, talking about anything, answering questions, and doing live group sessions for anyone who wants to join!
And much more.
