In this video, I'm going to show you how to play the chord tones for position number one. This is how you play the major chord tones for position number one, I've chosen to start with on a, which is on your fifth fret here, and the major scale goes 1-234-567-1234 5671. What we're gonna do is we're gonna play the chord tones, which are just the odd numbers. So what we're going to do here is we're gonna play one, which is a, we're gonna play the third note in the scale, which is C sharp, does the scale goes 123, we're going to skip to and just play 1313 then the next odd number is going to be five the next chord tone. So instead of playing 12345, we're going to play 135 then we're going to skip six right here. And we're going to play seven which is this G sharp So so far we have 1357 or the notes would be a C sharp, E, G sharp.
I'm going to come back here with our pinky here to play this route. That's one that's an A right there. So we have 13571. Then we're going to skip to B right here, we're gonna play the C sharp. We're gonna go one, three, or a C sharp. Then we're going to skip this D here because that's the fourth and we're going to go to this E, which is the fifth.
So we're going to go a C sharp. We're gonna skip this the sixth note here, which is F sharp. And we're gonna play this the seventh here, which is G sharp. So we're gonna play 1357 and then we're gonna come back to a here, which is one. So to review those, what we're playing here is, we're going to 135713571 coming back 1753175312 I'll run through this one more time 135713571 coming backwards 175317531 that's how you play the the major quarters for position number one out of the key of A or basically out of the key of A. So now I'm going to show you how to play them somewhere else on the neck.
Okay, next I've chosen to show you how to play the chord tones out of position number one for D. So what you want to do here you want to find D on your scale. String 10th fret, then we're gonna play the exact same pattern, we're going to go every other note in the scale, we're going to go 13571357 and then back to one, which is D. Coming back, we're going to go 175317531. Now I'm going to show you how to play that exact same chord tones down lower on the neck. Right now I've chosen to show you had to play the chord tones for position number one out of G flat. So I'm starting here on the sixth string, second fret on G flat. And as you can see that as you can see and feel that these frets are spread out more, so it's going to feel a lot different than when you were playing it up here on the 10th fret.
So it's going to be 135713571 Call me back 17531753 and then one one again. One more time 135 713-571-1753 17531 and that's how you play the chord tones for position number one
