Do you know both the CAGED and 3 Note per String patterns?
I have to admit I only know the 3 note per string ones well. With some brain usage I can play the CAGED ones, I imagine, I mean I know the notes of the fretboard so... Strangely watching a Guthrie Trapp video of him going over fundamentals, I would say for how I play CAGED would make much more sense. I don't particularly play locked into patterns as I find I play up and down the neck more but when I get to a point where go across the neck I'm looking at 3 notes per string patterns on the fretboard and I think maybe CAGED would serve me better at these times. I'm more pentatonic mixed with chord tones and major/minor scale and double stops Americana based player rather than a shredder. I wonder why this never occurred to me sooner... I blame Paul Gilbert This post has been edited by PosterBoy: Apr 5 2019, 12:18 PM -------------------- My SoundCloud

Hey Todd and Kris
Thanks for adding to the discussion, I find myself agreeing with you both and I do play using the whole fretboard rather than patterns as I approach a lot of my playing as a vocalist, I think I started wondering about this because I've never specifically looked at the CAGED Major Scale patterns but learnt the fretboard with 3nps and moving through the patterns whilst acknowledging the CAGED triad shapes, and wondered if I had missed anything in my studies. I think Guthrie uses this a lot as country music guitar really plays the changes and changes scale with the chord much more than other styles, so he references the CAGED stuff as an easy visual Luckily I have the Neck Diagrams software so which is like the fretboard tool on here but with much more, so I can create diagrams and overlay highlight different information to my hearts content to really learn to see how things connect everywhere. Neck Diagrams It's like Guitar Pro for Fretboard diagrams This post has been edited by PosterBoy: Apr 10 2019, 10:57 AM -------------------- My SoundCloud
