Lesson Description:
I remember having a conversation with other musicians at a social gathering many years ago.
Um... okay, yes we were talking about music theory at a party... no shame here :)
My friend Mike, a great ukulele player, shared how a song he was working on used the second chord of the minor scale in an unusual way.
"So you know how the second chord of the minor key is diminished?" he said as a setup.
Uh oh... "Yeah, totally," I replied.
Then I paused and decided to try to learn something instead of lying about it. "Wait... can you explain that to me actually?"
I had been playing guitar for YEARS but never fully understood the chord qualities that exist through the minor scale.
After learning the minor scale chords, guitar theory and all—and practicing through it on the fretboard—playing and writing in minor keys became so much easier.
I made this video so that those who need it can get this info down ahead of time before the music-nerd parties are allowed to happen again post-covid :)
I hope you enjoy

I remember how it felt before learning the minor scale chords - guitar playing in minor keys felt like a shot in the dark with a lot of guessing and checking. Once I learned and practiced the minor scale guitar chords in the way that I demonstrate in this video I got much more confident and I now see minor scale chords as clearly as major keys.
Hope you enjoyed this lesson. Let me know what you thought :)
