What helped me immensely was actually learning to play bass before guitar. That honed my ear to listen for the root note of the chords, then I just need to figure out if it's mayor or minor.
-
this riddle style video is awesome. also i like how you call us guitar chefs, sensei
-
I didn't really like watching shorts and this is just way better! Keep it up!
-
Keeos these videos up. I honestly love them.
-
Brandon making long videos hell yeah 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Playing along to songs is a great way to practice this. And yes listening to the bass helps alot too. This does get more complicated though with drop tuned metal though or Jazz
-
Thank you brandon😭
-
thanks brando!
-
Thanks!!

To make it even easier, imagine that the song suddenly ends on one long note. The note you first thought of was probably the same note as the key.

0 right … 😐 I honestly struggle to know what note/chord is being played unless I’m playing it myself. I might not be tone deaf but my tonal memory utterly sucks.
-
I actually love how bright F major is. I didnt get it right but every time i play an F chord it blows me away how bright and beautiful it sounds
-
I got the first one wrong and the second one right, and third one right too, 4th one right too. So 75% accuracy on these easy examples. Whats harder is if you play two unrelated chords on the piano at the same time, and then try to identify those pitches from low to high. Now that’s hard without perfect pitch.

Got all of them right

I am like brand new to playing, I can play like 3 riffs and am practicing the pentatonic scale from the video a few days ago. Are there any tips other than just playing a lot more time because this is gibberish to me honestly. Then again almost all music theory words are completely gibberish to me, I spent a while the other night looking over the circle of fifths and think I kind of understand it but still am super lost.

This is useful, but more relevant for beginners. What I wish I could do as an intermediate guitar player would be to instantly figure out the chord progression of a song by ear with minimal effort. Any tips on how to learn that?

27 seconds in I have to pick up my original 1962 usa strat . dang this guy rocks
-
Every time I try a song has a "borrowed chord" OR they didn't know theory so it contains whatever.

Welp, got the G at least. Good stuff, thanx
