When it comes to navigating the guitar fretboard, the CAGED system is about as effective as it gets. This is because it covers literally every guitar chord and every guitar scale across the entire neck. In this video, I'll show you how you can use the CAGED system to play new chords, create your own guitar solos, and fully visualize the fretboard in a new way.

Here are some of the questions that this video will answer:
"What is the CAGED system?"
"Why does CAGED use these chords?"
"How do minor chords work with the CAGED system?"
"How does the pentatonic scale work with CAGED?"
"How do I solo using the CAGED system?"
"How do you use CAGED in other keys?"
"How do you practice using the CAGED system?"

If you have any other questions, please leave them in the comments below. Thanks for watching!
