I've been a member of the forum for years and this is my 2nd go around trying to learn to play the PSG. 1ST Time I went about it the wrong way and learned to play tab and not learning the Instrument like I should have. This Time I really want to learn it the right way with your help and advise.
I want to know how to familiarize myself up and down the neck connecting the chords. For example, If I'm in the 3rd fret in the key of G No pedals, I know if I press A & B down that gives me the key of C and up 2 frets from there Is D. After that I'm Lost. I don't know how to go up the neck to continue playing a song and whether to press pedals down or leave them up and what fret to go to. To a lot of you this may seem easy but I'm really struggling here. Is there some sort of pattern I can use to make it easier to understand or how you guys learned to know where every chord is up and down The neck and what pedals and fret to be in in order to get the chord your looking for?
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated. |

Here's a pattern of I IV V changes using the A and B pedals and the F lever. I'm showing it in the key of G.
| Tab: |
number: I IV V I IV V I IV V I
chord: G C D G C D G C D G
position: 3 3AB 5AB 6AF 8 10 10AB 11AF 13AF 15 |

That is a great little graphic.
Another simple concept you can glean from looking at b0b’s chart is the 3-4-5 fret space between major chord grips. No-pedals G is at fret 3, then go up 3 frets and there’s another G (AF) at fret 6, go up 4 frets from there and it is at 10 (AB), then go up 5 frets to the octave no-pedals G at 15.
The same idea holds for C and D and any other major chord, but at different frets of course. You can practice a single chord up and down the neck. |

| You really should invest in the Paul Franklin method. Your question is exactly what I've been working on. Not only do i have his videos and text lessons available at anytime for reference, but he personally answers questions and critiques my videos on the private Facebook group for members of the PF method. I have cleared up years of mistakes and confusion in just 2 months. |
