Trying to play …
Trying to play guitar without knowing scales is like trying to play chess without any study of the openings or strategic theory. People say: “Oh, I don’t need to study or try to win by memorization. I’m an original thinker.” And they try to invent the wheel. And a mediocre player who knows theory slaughters the “original thinker.” Music is similar. Learn theory, get a basic understanding, then concentrate on getting “creative” when you have a clue about how this specialized universe works.

Learn scales if you want to become a skilled player. If you don’t, it’s like trying to beat an expert chess player without ever learning any chess theory. You’re a loser who doesn’t understand why his results are bad.

It is hard …
It is hard understanding true genius,believe it or not some people actually have great ideas and never learn theory or scales or harmony,not me but i’ve been fortunate enough to meet some of these freaks! Typically these people do have ears and a brain! It is very hard for those of us who need to work hard and long to get it. In the end theory is just a way to pass Ideas between each other. modern model of musical temperment is artificial look it up. Technique is simply tradition of mechanics

Improvise on the …
Improvise on the changes of a song and you will quickly realize how important scale knowledge is. Start with basic triad changes – basic changes tell you what notes and passing notes you can use to create. Then and only then start playing “outside” the scale.

It’s cool that you put this on here but, for beginning guitar players sometimes it is helpful to point to the spot being played (as an obvious reference) because it is not always easy to tell from our vantage point what fingers are being used and when because the other fingers get in the way or are very close to the strings too etc. Thanks again for providing this lesson.
