Hi Everyone!

This holiday season is the weirdest I've ever dealt with. I'm not able to live stream right now due to being out of town and in quarantine, but I'll still me putting out lessons in place of the live streams over the next few weeks on top of the usual Monday content.

In this lesson, I talk about handy I-IV-V shapes on the E and A strings and how they link together to create this easy-to-remember shape for quick chord progression writing.

Then I dig into an approach on songwriting: rapid fire, timed songwriting blips. I don't call them that in the video, but thats essentially what they are. Quick primordial song stuff. Basically it's about practicing the essential elements of songwriting and being quick about it.

Check out the PDF attached below and please share YOUR songwriting blips and questions about this lesson on the community forum.

Scott this is awesome, why did I miss it? You should tag as Music Theory for Guitar. Question: there are order "Codes" for not using bar chords? Same stuff but just for high strings? Can I post this on the community chalenge? Not sure if people saw this...is great! This was also a punch in my face... After putting XYZ hours in my Turd! Kind of hurt a bit, but I learnt!

This lesson is a gem. You can practically be a complete guitar player in 14 minutes. Scott shows you how to put together a moveable chord progression using moveable bar chords using the major and relative minor scales.
