Here’s a video shedding a little light on combining these two pentatonics over Dominant 7 chords. This is very important to be able to break free of the pentatonic box. Enjoy!

"until you can see these constellations." what a great way of explaining it.

@joshellyson 5 years ago

Mr Guthrie, thinking of these chords as constellations is a great way to think about it....and clearly you are a very bright star in the constellation of music. Thanks so much for your openness to share your musical and personal wisdom. Soooo appreciate it all.

Guthrie has a gift of guitar and gab. He’s able to effortlessly explain complex techniques in laymen’s terms. Dudes on point. It comes natural to him. That being said this man has put the work in. Much needed light in these crazy times. Thank you Guthrie for another gem! You never cease to amaze

when Guthrie teaches, I sit up and pay attention

Anyone else here amazed at how Guthrie Trapp just keeps raising the bar? I have never not been in awe of his playing, teaching and his attitude towards approaching music. One of my biggest inspirations of all time.

Can't thank you enough Guthrie for helping to unlock the fingerboard and show us the way!

This lesson will save you years of pecking around looking for the right note....

2:47-3:34…penny drop moment!
The 3 and the b7 are the tones which guide to the next chord (hence guide tones!) which are a semi tone away. Crucial info there.
I will work on mapping out the 1 3 and b7 as triads all over the fretboard, much like I did for the 1 3 and 5.
Sweet, thanks GT.

In passing Guthrie mentioned being able to see these chord "constellations". What a great way to think of them!!! I feel like studying chord diagrams will be huge for me!!! Thanks for the suggestion!!!

I’ve never met a guy named Guthrie who isn’t a guitar wizard. Lol. Hey but seriously, you’re such a good dude for taking the time to share this stuff. Thank you so so much for these videos. They have been huge for me the past few weeks. In a bit of a creative slump recently but every time I watch one of your videos I come alive!

Really like the quick slide at around 8:57 from the 2nd (?) to the minor 3rd (?). Tasty!

Guthrie thanks so much for continuing to post these lessons and for taking the time to say hi. We saw you on Thursday at the kitchen and my wife and I had an amazing time. Appreciate you and thanks fir everything. Tim from Chicago

Yes, so often you emphasize the importance of paying attention to the flat seventh and the major third.
Yes, I need to hear these things in your playing and the playing of others over and over again because it takes repetition to make these things stick.
Thank you for your help.
