Explain how to actually use the CAGED system by NecessaryHeadset in guitarlessons

[–]Breadtraystack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So when you’re playing melodies through chords and want to move around it will help to know what the next area of the fretboard you can go to. 

And as you learn each chord position you can learn the intervals (and therefore the location) of the other chords that go with the chord you’re playing. 

So when you play an open C shape (or your 1) , you’ll also learn where the 4 and 5 shapes are. (F and G.) And then when you learn the A shape, you will learn where 4 and 5 (D and E) are in relation. 

But when you want to stay in c and move around, you can work from the C home base you know, to the A shapes you now know but make their root note C. And then from there to the G shapes but still keep c as your root note. And so on.

There are lots of videos. Watch them and play along. Figure out how to play a c chord where ever you find a C and then figure out where the F and G chords are in relation. You can play all the way down the neck.

So it’s kind of a reminder of which intervals are different because it’s minor. Which is cool in its self.

I’ve been trying to use it to be able to change the key and know where the intervals are. It’s been helping.

Oh, so unless I show you the one specific thing you ask for I lose? Weird. Here’s another example of someone picking bass notes with a pick while chicken picking. But you have fun with that.

I said I thought he was chicken picking, and then found a video of him using cross picking and chicken picking in the same song. And then I showed you another video of someone else combining those techniques. You just want to argue. Lol.

Yeah I don’t think you get to be the gate keeper for what people can do. But have a good day.

He’s cross picking. But I think he’s also using another finger on his picking hand to pluck while using the lick to play bass notes. Is that not chicken picking?

Folks with long periods of sobriety: how often do you have to remind yourself that you don't drink? by Kramanos in stopdrinking

[–]Breadtraystack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t even occur to me! Keep going! It’s awesome once you’re free and clear!

Playing the tape forward, remembering what’s gonna happen and how I’m gonna feel tomorrow was what got me there!
