Apparently, the CAGED system is just for losers who never want to progress in their playing, play with emotion, speed, use the entire fretboard, or basically enjoy the pasttime in the manner I desire. If you're content to play within a small box from which you can never escape, CAGED is for you, but if you want to play free, then 5-frets-or-3-notes-per-string (or whatever that system is called) is for you. |
CAGED is the training wheels on your first bike. Nothing wrong with them, as long as you know when you're ready to take them off. Obviously once you're beyond a certain point they restrict more than they help you.
