BEFORE
- You fall back on familiar pentatonic shapes.
- You stay in the same position.
- The chords change; you are unsure what to play next.
Stop guessing. Start choosing notes.
You know a pentatonic shape, but the chord changes leave you guessing. Explore CAGED and chord tones on the fretboard, then put them to work on your guitar with backing.
Start freePractice Jam + Lessons 1–3. No sign-in required.
LESS THEORY TO MEMORISE. MORE PRACTICE.
See it. Play it. Build on it.
You do not need advanced theory to begin. Follow the lessons with your guitar, from finding a Root to preparing your next third.
From familiar shapes to deliberate choices.
AFTER
- Choose notes with the current chord in mind.
- Find the same chord in several CAGED positions.
- Prepare the next Root or third before the change.
These are practice goals, not guaranteed outcomes. Progress varies from player to player.
What you practise
Find the notes
Use a Root to picture a CAGED Shape, then find its chord tones.
Hear the chord changes
Notice the current and next chord, and try a landing note.
Connect your ideas
Combine pentatonic notes and chord tones, using Roots, thirds and fifths as landmarks.
Make it musical
Practise slowly with backing and make your own note choices.
