Questions & AnswersHi. My name is Joe Wiles with the Rock and Roll Conservatory on behalf of Expert Village. We've kind of wrapped up step one of the CAGE method. Simply, it was just learning how to play five chords. I'm going to tell you, those are the only five chords you really need to know. Everything thing else that you'll learn is pegged off of those five chords. Any E minor chord you do. Any other variation of the chord you do. A lot of the pentatonic scales that you might have heard of are all pegged on those five chords. So, a good understanding of those chords is important. Make sure you do the exercises. And, make sure you're very familiar with how to do all those chords. Not only without your index finger, but in as many different fingerings as possible. That will give you more versatility. And, step two we're going to talk about applying this barred method up the neck. So, we can use our full neck instead of just sticking behind our first three frets. I'll see you then.
