Would love to better understand why the practice in here goes:
I- IV- bvi V, ie. why is V not V-?
Help, please and thank you!
Chris here's a poster I have on my wall, it has the modes of major, melodic and harmonic scales and all their diatonic chords. it also has circle of 5ths on it

hey Chris , I think it can depend of which minor scale the chord are built on. im not 100% on this but
major 1-4-5 progression is all major chords
a melodic minor progression would be 1minor - 4major - 5major
a harmonic minor progression would be 1minor -4minor - 5 major
a natural minor progression would be 1minor- 4 minor -5 minor
I hope ive not added confusion here, this is also a learning curve for me too but thats why I think the 5 chord is major
Thank you Smooth! Good job!

Thank you guys. I have so much to learn. I am taking your word on the why, but hopefully I can make the connection as to why it works like so.
don't worry about about it Chris, I also didn't know why and I thought your question was a good one, so I also had to find out why lol thats when I was staring at that guitar modes poster I posted above on my living room wall and was looking at all the diatonic chords In the minor scales to try ascertain some kind solution lol
Having questions leads to searches, the searches lead to discoveries, the discoveries lead to more questions - this is how we learn.
This has taught me that I have a hole in my theory knowledge, the minor scales. ive been sitting too comfy for too long in the major scale lol
Thank you Chris for sharing this lesson FTR 05.
This harmony is based on minor key and especially Harmonic Minor. Maj7 of Harmonic minor is M3 of V chord. Very special sound.
Good job! Minor triads. Please check your fingerings. Slightly different on 2nd inversion and 1st inversions. Always better to review the original lesson a few times.
You can play a little slower and sustain each chords a little longer.
Try not to make any sliding chord sounds.

Thanks Tomo. I’m not understanding what you are implying by ‘Maj7 of Harmonic minor is M3 of V chord’.
When I run a one finger harmonic minor scale that makes sense, like I visually and audibly get it, but how does that relate to the chord progression in FTR 05.
I- IV- bvi V?
Please forgive, it’s just not clicking for me.
You're very welcome Chris.
Major 7th note from A Hamonic minor (G#) is Major 3rd of E7 (G#)
Good job on learning Harmonic minor scale.

Ok Tomo, thank you. Will review these! -Chris
Thanks Tomo for the recommendation on the FB Minor Blues Form Lesson, awesome, and such a fun groove to start getting under my fingers.
It gives me some hope to be able to emulate at a basic level some of these concepts and hopefully one day to be really competent. I am really enjoying… will record some progress in a vid soon this week to share after I practice it for a few days.
You're very welcome! I love minor blues like "Thrill is gone" by BB King. Glad to hear that.
You're doing so good! Practice things slow and steady. Good job! Plesae enjoy your guitar jouney!
Tomo
Thank you for sharing this video Chris! Good job! Please check 4th beat, you played two - 16ths… you need to keep moving strumming arm so that you play them as 16th notes. Please watch my video again and check that strumming patterns. Chords are good! You need to learn 16ths alternate picking.
