Caveat: I’m not responding as an expert but as a learner or interpreter. I went to FBW and revisited that lesson. It worked for me using the C shaped CAGED pattern. Tony is playing a C Dm G(7 but I just say G ish) progression. So I play a C skip E skip G set of notes. Then a D skip F skip A set of notes. Then a G skip B skip D set of notes.
Now the scale shows how to do the same process for all the other notes in the C major scale, but that is for your back pocket learning and doesn’t go with the demonstrated chord progression.
At least that is my hypothesis and I hope it helps.

I think the forum is going well, but we have missed you and it’s better now that you are back. On the side I’ve been working on flat picking some fiddle tunes and delving deeper in to CAGED system.

I originally learned a standard G as you described but since with TAC , the “Folk G” has become just a familiar. Both are good and I use whichever sounds good or whichever sets my fingers up for the next chord or chord variation better. And yes your change as you described would be a Cmaj7 (you added a B to the CEG or the 7 to the 1-3-5 with a C root).

Try this trick I learned from @Loraine
Go to my profile. On my profile go to my favorites. Find the Old Man lesson title such as Wither Away. Click on the link and it will take you to the lesson through my profile.

Happy that you are having fun. That is what is important to keep one on the Journey.

This Improvisation Challenge is dealing with the Am Pentatonic scale based 5 different chord SHAPES described in the CAGED system. The first line is the Am shape, the next are the Gm shape, the Em shape, the Dm shape, and finally the Cm shape. Your source may only have been showing the Em shape which is used by a lot of players.

Congratulations. This is a great song to have fun with. And you get to sense your progress as you complete a second pass. The system works.

Slow is just an indicator of mood. Good job.

If you marked it as a favorite it can be accessed that way. Old Man is a benchmark song so it will come back around each 90 Days.

I think a delve into theory is a great idea when you can’t put your hands on the fretboard. Studies have shown thinking through shooting a free throw in basketball can actually improve one’s shot when the do play. A great time to memorize the Fretboard if you habit already done so.

Brings back memories. Crimson and Clover, I Think We’re Alone Now, Hanky Panky. Crystal Blue Persuasion.

I use most anything without arms or periodically play standing up for the exercise and practice of performing.

You probably just need to get over it. My wife told <font face=”inherit”>Tony at the Fretboard Summit a few years ago that she felt she knew him though she never met him from having to overhear me trying to follow and emulate him. But every once </font>in<font face=”inherit”> a while she will admit I sound decent. She’s an enneagram one and not given to complements. Nice of you to be thoughtful though.</font>
