    Man, you way of explaining the circle of fifths was just brilliant for me. Like you ive seen the circle of fifths explained before and never really got it. But now the light bulb came on. Thanks man.🎸🍻
  • @johndotson920
    This is great I've looked at this and scratched my head tried to figure it out. In just a few minutes I understand it now

    I've played for years but never understood (never really tried to be honest) the inner workings of it. The past year or so I've been trying to get into a little more of music theory and ideas behind things like the circle of 5ths and this is an explanation that really cleared things up for me. Thanks man.
  • I dont know how but for some reason you break things down so that I immediately understand...it's funny how things just click on like a light bulb when I watch your videos...best teacher on YouTube as far as I'm concerned....thank you very much for what you do to help others learn.

    THIS is the reason Den is one of my Guitar Worthy Sites! He once again finds patterns, shapes, and similarities in music, the guitar, and theory, then highlights them to get you moving in your guitar journey to those AHA moments!
  • However many videos I've watched in the past there was always some of it I didn't understand. But THIS makes total sense. Thank you so much.

  • @philjames1019
    Cool video .... excellent explanation of the CoF's!!!
  • @novotiz
    Yessssss Finallyyyy! Thank you!
  • Great explanation again, love your lessons, you should have crossed out the word chord in your book and written shapes underneath.😀

    Finally ! Finally i get it. Like i struggled to pass trig and algebra all through school, until a grade 12 summer school teacher explained it in a way I understood and I got an A-. And it became fun. Thank you !!!
  • Ahhh Thank you very much! I have been aware of the Circle of 5ths however it's was a maze to me. I had the basics but you tied it all together in a way we can understand. I like how you didn't assume that we knew more than we do, and I like how you didn't jump around. And then you played what you just explained!! Thank you once again!!!
