Awesome lesson! Thank you!!!
7:00 I ALMOST thought you were onto something. But why did you say use the D shape on the D string and then used the F shape and even said it was the F shape. ????????????????
Thanks Taylor for the video. I want to make a request. Please do a series for each note like A-G and also touch on the mechanics behind why the chord shapes are the way they are across the fretboard. Thank you ????????
Thanks for the lesson!

This lesson is rated❤️????????
YOU DESERVE SUBS FR
This really opened my eyes! Thx ????
A great lesson! I subscribed ????
i had this information in my head but it wasn't organized like this, so i appreciate it. truly a great alternative to the caged, and yes maybe a bit simpler in some respects too. thanks.
Thanks a bunch dude❤
Thank you sm
Finally, I get it now! Great way to explain in simple terms.
Where is the G shape?
your explanation is brillinatly simple and all i have to do is memorise the shapes of all strings and i know my chords. please keep making these vidoes. you have a life long subscriber in me.
please explain how is the c chord on the d string not similar to the open d shape and behind the fretting finger instead of ahead of the fretting finger in the case of other barre chords. why is it the f shape and not d shape. and why the d shape is on the b string?
GREAT VIDEO!!
Wonderful video. Perfect demonstration with clear explanations. Thank you.
yes, so much easier than caged
Been trying to figure it out all my life 67 wow yeah buddy
You bet ya man thank you sir
Thank you very much the light came on
Awesome job young man wow I have been trying to figure it out and not playing with you very much thank you sir
thank u bro! i was catching on slowly at first but i finally get it. thank u very much sir ????????????????
thank you teacher. very grateful for the lesson. should be really able to play all over the fretboard instead of only open chords????????????
still cage but no barre
So much clarity from this, thank you SO much!
Fantastic lesson about where the notes are on the fretboard.
I'm still blank on how to figure out which chord shape to play once we find the root.
D-student here. Sorry!
Great!
Excellent vid, mate.
This is crazy. He says this is 'better than CAGED', then goes right ahead and plays 4 of the 5 CAGED shapes up the neck (for some reason he misses out the G shape). I'll pass.
This is just the caged system…df
Lots of great info in this lesson, only complaint i have is counting up each string to the note youre looking for. This is not practical. People should learn the notes of each string and be able to count up AND down quickly.
I've been trying to figure this out FOREVER, it's like I knew there was a trick to it, but I just didn't get it, the string pattern/root note thing was like eye opening, I know my scales and yet I've been stuck in 1st position forever
Jesus christ i wish I would have learned this 20 years ago
Just got a new subscriber
I'm new to guitar and this just saved me a lot of stress
I'm really greatful.
What shape do I hold if I wanted to play A C cord on the high E string? Or any g a b what chord shape do I hold… when the note I'm trying to play is on the high E string the thinnest string?
This is really great and inspiring! Trying these out when I play songs. Thankyou!
C on fret on b string Has an octave lower stri on a string fret 3 and the same pitch is going to be on e6 string fret 8 but this is the bass note not the treble ,g string fret 5 is the middle c pitch ,same as b string fret 1 ,so b string 2 fret 1 to a string fret 3 is the same as e 6 string fret 8 with its octave being the g string fret 5 ,in caged g string fret 5 ie g shape is going to to have its lower octave on e fret 8, that is g shape, I taught myself the caged system not knowing it was the caged system,I used it for chords scales and octave maps,what you do not get is there is no way to move away from caged ,it is th3 fretboard itself , from c to c b to b a to a g to g e to e f toF d Tod they are all caged no matter how hard you try to change that, even if you base your root note on e 8 a 8 ,a 10 ,the quality of the chord major or minor ,will end up with the octave higher being. Caged like e8 is g 5 ,a 8 is is d b fret 5 or g on a string fret 10 octave is b fret 8, your doing no one favors discounting caged fretboard maps
I feel like this is the YouTube video that I’ve been looking for for the last eight years!! thank you!
Wow Taylor, I am so impressed with how you teach guitar- I have watched lots of other videos and am relatively new to guitar and you make the most sense- I know the caged system can be intimidating but you make it very simple- thanks and you have a new subscriber 🙂
