Did you know.....
In a Major key, certain chords are exclusive in their function.

1- Dominant chords are always V
G7 is V of C

2- minor6 chords are always ii
Dm6 is ii of C

3-Major7#11 is always IV
FMaj7#11 is IV of C

These chords cannot exist otherwise to be consistent with a key. This helps for composing progressions and analyzing for solo possibilities.

Video won't help

simple example
G7= GBDF this can only exist in C major
thus it's a V chord in C
and so on
It's more analytical than visual on the fretboard.

Hey Werkspace.

I can tell you from experience after 3 semesters at Uni, that you will benefit greatly from just working it out in your head first , then play it. Steve's right of course, it's all about note recognition and getting used to keys and what works within them.

I used to think that that I would never get my head around it, not that I'm totally across all major/minor modes yet.

Just try it once and you'll want to do more....
