The deepest ear training there is

Umaro plays a short phrase from the A minor pentatonic scale, then listens through your microphone as you play it back — any octave, any position.

Headphones recommended so the mic hears only your guitar. Phrases grow longer as you succeed.

Why this works

Playing back what you hear connects your ear directly to your hands — the exact skill behind improvising and learning songs by ear. Matching is octave-agnostic, so find the notes wherever they're comfortable.

Tips

  • • Use headphones so the mic only hears your guitar.
  • • Let each note ring clearly — rushed notes are hard to detect.
  • • Stuck? Replay the phrase as many times as you need.
