This is the first video in a series focusing on building chord shape, and harmonic intervals up the guitar neck. An acronym commonly used for this is CAGED. The CAGED system is a way of observing and using those 5 common "open shape" chords (C, A, G, E, and D shapes), and moving those shapes up the neck to yield new chords, away from the open position. There's a lot to consider here, and you should absolutely take your time. After working through each video, take time to practice, contemplate, build muscle memory & seeing the shapes in your minds eye. The concept of CAGED is within the building blocks of a "Level 3." Starting into Level 3, a guitar player will have been playing for at least 5 years or more, and typically 17 years old, or older, in order to cognitively have the capacity to take years of playing to that next level of understanding and application. This is a journey, not a one time "got it" situation. Again, take your time. Takes weeks on each video, that's to be expected. Be sure and follow the series. Guaranteed, most every player will be able to get something from it. -Jacob Paul insideoutonline.com #guitarlesson #guitarplaying #cagedsystem #intermediateguitar #howtoplayguitarforadults

This is the fourth video in a series focusing on building chord shape, and harmonic intervals up the guitar neck. An acronym commonly used for this is CAGED. The CAGED system is a way of observing and using those 5 common "open shape" chords (C, A, G, E, and D shapes), and moving those shapes up the neck to yield new chords, away from the open position. In this video we explore the 2 types of shapes most commonly used for BOTH minor and major chords up the neck, and that is the "A" and "E" shape - where to build it, how to build it.

The CAGED system is a way of observing and using those 5 common "open shape" chords (C, A, G, E, and D shapes), and moving those shapes up the neck to yield new chords, away from the open position. In this video we get into the details of how "sharps" and "flats" work. This has to do with WHERE the chord/note is being made, not the nature itself of a chord like a "minor" or "major."

Common keys for this is Key of C, Key of D, or Key of E, because those keys comfortably land in a useful spot to use the rule.
