Hi to everyone commenting "too hard, not well explained, not understandable etc.":
Sometimes there are things you don't understand immediately but eventually will. That is called learning.
And you'll learn much more, if you think yourself a little, reapeat the lesson a couple of times and find out some things yourself.
I found it also difficult and challenging, but in a pleasant way. We are given tools and it's normal we don't know directly how to use them with perfection.
P.S. Obviously it's partly over my head aswell, since I'm hardly an intermediate player with zero impro skills.;)

Amazing that this level of instruction is free.

If you don't understand this video, you're not on the level to learn this concept. He did a great job explaining.

Musicians are the most under recognized geniuses. I listen to this video and it’s a foreign language I still don’t understand...and I’ve been playing for a year. Music theory is like studying physics to me.

I watched this video two months ago or so after 15 years of playing and it completely changed my life, sending me down the path of the CAGED system. I went from feeling completely stuck, feeling like scales were confined to “positions, ” instead of visualizing them more as they relate to chords. My playing has jumped ahead by years in just a short period of time thanks to your lessons, and you helping me to find the value of CAGED to organize information. I finally feel free on the fretboard, to move around and play like I never thought possible. Thanks, Paul!

Not only a great guitarist and teacher, but he seems like such a great guy!

Paul, I have to thank you for putting videos like these out. I've known the basics of guitar for maybe 7 years now but I'm self taught and I never really took the time to learn scales because I never thought I needed them. You've really opened my eyes to what can be done with this instrument when you actually know what you're playing. Thank you for giving me the drive to learn and love the instrument I thought I've known for damn near a decade ❤

If you’ve been playing for >10 years and still don’t have a solid foundation in music theory, these videos are absolutely perfect. They pick up when my lessons left off in the sense that he gets down to the meat and potatoes of what I really want to learn.

Excellent. Especially liked the 9-12, 9-11, 9-11, 9-11, 9-12, 9-12 of quickly describing the familiar pattern rather than using note names.

2 years ago I watched this video but I didn’t finish it since I couldn’t understand a single thing he was explaining. But now I’ve watched it and finished it couple of times since I can get the clues he’s giving, take your time lads, this is just like math, complicated but once you started to study and understand it carefully. You’ll be a master pentatonic scale player😂 Thanks heaps Paul, you’re the best teacher, teaching for free and smoothly.🤘🏻❤️

I didn't understand this video when I first watched it last year. Now, I'm able to pick up everything he said.

I just want to add that this lesson is one of the best in youtube.. and it's FREE! If you guys don't understand it then, like what the others said, take a step back and learn more about scales because this video is more like an application to that. It's just like math. You can't multiply if you don't know what numbers are.

Dude.. I truly wish I had the Internet back in the 80s/90s lol. This WOULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH EASIER. Thank you for the great instruction. You are top notch.

[congamike]

OMG! Parts of this were somewhat within my grasp, mostly, it was way over my head. I'm going to have to re-play this video a bunch of times to get the easier parts into my thick skull. Thanks Paul.

[Scalli]

This is actually a really good lesson. I remember watching this back when it was released and I really didn't get it, my progress just wasn't ready to go beyond the horizontal playing back then. At some point since it clicked for me and I have been moving into the vertical playing for a year or so now.

Coming across this video and rewatching it has solidified a lot of the ideas floating around in my head.

If you don't get it just yet, maybe rewatch again later on..

[armytribe]

You have a camp fire story telling voice🔥

[alienjesus]

I've learned more from you about guitar than anyone else in my 15 years of playing. You explain things so easily and effortlessly, you have a true gift for teaching Paul. Love you brother and thank you for everything you do!

[ThorneyedWT]

Great explanation! Gotta start working on vertical...

[RaihanRisad]

I can't express how important this lesson is for me. This kinda content is so rare where u actually learn something

[Fannywikstrom]

This is a really helpful video, thanks! For the people saying you don’t understand, try and learn the pentatonic scale in all the boxes and try to understand how to use them to figure out the minor/major key. Then come back to this video!☺️

I love your attention to detail. Like when you stop the music and it immediately cues and plays the end of the backing track.
