I love how ur channel is 0 clickbait and fake things to get beginners attention, youre only here to teach and its a 100 percent more efficient than all the other channels man. appreciate u a lot

So, I'm an idiot and I couldn't for the life of me remember which notes didn't have sharps, even though it's literally two letters out of seven, until - UNTIL, right - until I remembered that episode of The Simpsons where Homer has that barbershop quartet and they're called "The Be Sharps", and B and E are the two notes which don't have sharps. Thanks again, Simpsons, for adding value to my life. And thank you, Kevin, for teaching me how to not get a girlfriend but to sort of muddle through knowing a pentatonic scale.

I really like your No BS approach to teaching. I would definitely buy your online course if you had one, no matter the price :)
-
Your one lesson made me magically know the whole fret board. I can't thank u enough!
-
this deserves an award for most understandable "how to memorize the fretboard" video thanks man

I've recently bought an electric guitar even though I have no clue about guitars as I play the piano (nothing serious, just amateur) and it was extremely intimidating to wrap my head around the basics and terminology. But you explain everything in the most concise and easy way to understand. Kevin, if you're reading this, and I hope you do... I'm forever grateful for the amazing effort you put up in your videos and I'll be anticipating more videos from you in the future. Your channel is criminally underrated ! Your channel's now on my radar, fucking subscribed mate ! ❤

After watching tons of videos, your video made the most sense and it finally clicked. Thanks man. You’re going places

Thanks Kevin. Very informative for a newbie.

I've watched a few 'memorize the fretboard' tutorials on YT. This was by far the best.
-
I wish my music teacher back in school made stuff this easy to understand, i would've picked up guitar much earlier if they were this helpful. Great vid man!
-
Thank you. You’re answering all the questions I was too intimidated ask, and even some questions I didn’t know I had! Your videos are fantastic.
-
I started guitar about the time you dropped this vid and I was recommended you early on. I wasn't sure about your channel at first since it seems you're building it currently, but after watching many videos I can honestly say yours are some of the most clear, simple, and entertaining. Thanks man
