    My Favourite Rick Beato video (because you know The Beatles)

    Thanks again for the video share @Ids The way I see it about Rick. He puts an absolute wealth of knowledge online for free - Knowledge that most people would have to put themselves in 1000's of £/$'S of debt to receive in College/University - and even then, they might not ever get the clear, no...

    My Favourite Rick Beato video (because you know The Beatles)

    Did anyone else while watching this, get confused at why Rick analysed F#m7 as the ii7 chord and not the vi7 in A Major? Either he's made a mistake or he's treating the E chord as a resolution to E major? I'm not all the way through yet so maybe he corrects it. I just found it strange :geek:

    Frustrated!!!

    It just goes down far too easy. My problem is that when I start I get a taste for it (Typical Scotsman really) - so I keep my drinking to the weekends just now haha!

    Good Acoustic Strings

    I tend to use Martin 10-46 gauge as a quick option and Elixirs 10-46 as a longer lasting option. The Elixirs are pricey but you really get what you pay for with them.

    Hey Robert! There's not much to add after everyone's comments here as they are spot on. I've totally been where you are before and not that long ago too! The best advice I can give is to really take your time and try (as hard as it may be) to be kind to yourself, at every stage. Guitar isn't a...

    Hey guys! Just an update on the Pentatonic Tips video that I mentioned a while ago. I'm nearly at the point where I can upload my first one. I've decided to make the format more of a quick tips style, as I've recorded about 3 or 4 full length videos that I didn't like, and kept deleting and...

    Hey Jak hope you're well! I've been in bed ill the past week so I've discovered 'Medititive Practice' 😂 Basically visualising and studying the Guitar in your head when you're too weak to play it. And now that I've returned to my instrument it's like I never left it. Been working on some left...

    Anybody regret selling a guitar?

    I had a Schecter Blackjack that I once pawned and I still miss it dearly. But then I pick up my Strat and the pain goes away 🤟

    The Phrygian Mode – Lesson 62

    If you're using E Phrygian, then yeah you're using all the same notes as C Major 😊 If you meant the relative Phrygian Mode in E natural minor (B Phrygian) then you're using 6 or the 7 notes in C major, the only difference is your F note in the scale is sharpened to an F# (this is not in the C...
