    Yeah… The video was good and informative. I took how to form major/minor lines. Is that what you are going for?

    I don’t need to learn every chord in the book to attempt to follow a song. Excellent, you said you would make it simple and you did what you said. I was skeptical,and don’t believe everything I see on the net. I can trust you. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

    Good video lesson. Now I think I understand why I see guys moving up and down the E string instead of working more towards the head and staying in the box.
    Thanks.

      Hey Doc, bear in mind I’ve only showed you one of many patterns so far, but yes you can use these to move around the neck horizontally but there are many others that keep you in one position which totally have benefits in itself. Cheers

    Amen Alex. Great video. I’ve been playing for a while, but always looking for a different viewpoint. Wish I’d found you when I first started out. Would have shortcut a lot of things that took longer to learn another way. I’ll be watching for the next one. Thanks.

    I understand what your doing with patt. 1 and 2. But in the BB King song when your in patt. 1, in the B minor you hammer on and pull off into the major note, from d to d# to d. what gives? Dont get me wrong, it sounds great what you are doing, i just dont know why when you said patt. 1 for minor and patt. 2 for major…..Love all the bluesy/funk stuff you do, wish i could play like that someday.lol
