The Musical Alphabet (Chromatic Scale) & How To Use it (On Guitar)

This is an in-depth lesson on how to find & remember all of the notes on your Guitar - the easiest way! The lesson also shows you how to apply the knowledge to Jam in any key. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing this ! This is something I’ve struggled with lol. I can find notes but have such a hard time memorizing them. I love the idea of just recognizing the natural notes and then the sharps and flats will just fall into place. Seems so simple, but I never thought about that before !!!!! 😃

also, and I don’t mean this in any weird way but I could listen to you talk all day ! Lol

Hey! No problem at all, I'm glad it was of use to you 😁

Yeah it's something I struggled with a lot as well, as it seemed so overwhelming at first - it's like my brain repelled it! After a while the natural notes just seem to light up on the fretboard and with them, all the sharps/flats.

Ah really Haha? Thanks! It's not taken in any weird way at all 😂 Must be the 'Sunny Scotland' accent eh? Either way I'l take it 🤓

I’m going to start trying to memorize just the natural notes and see how that goes for me.

and yes, it is in fact the Scottish accent ! If I could immitate a Scottish accent I would use it all the time ! I love it ! Lol

Great stuff! I reckon you'll have it nailed in no time 😊

See we feel like that about every other accent, especially the US & English accent! - to us, we just sound flat - usually why British/Scottish bands sing in American accents to disguise it 😂

I'm going to have a stream where I just phonate students' accents from around the world.

Vedy fauhst: Scottish for "very first"
Wot eezit: British for "what is it" as spoken by @Matt Wildcat
:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Haha! Thank you! Spelled out it's like something from Lord of The Rings 😂

When people on my side of the pond phonate the US accent it's something like this:

A gatcha mayn - I got you man
Fur streengs and nat a prablem- Four strings & Not a problem 😂
