IS THAT YOUR MAMA?
Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

Excellent choice
 Listen Scott, I want you to spend about 30min/day with this First off, read the first 3 entries in this thread: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0#entry644329Afterwards, please try the following drill, associated with major intervals: - play the C note on your fretboard (A chord, 3rd position) - play the E note - in the same time with the C note and then separately - C and then E - play the C note and sing the E note - while singing the E note, play it and see how close you are - try the following drill viceversa - starting with the major third - E and playing and then singin the C note (root) against it to see if you memorized it. - try the drill with all the C notes and E notes on the neck Let me know how it goes and we'll take it from there, deal? |

although I think I do go out-with that scale a little. Is there a more exotic scale I could also try to use in this backing? |

QUOTE (bleez @ Nov 23 2014, 10:15 AM)  thank you sir Im not sure of all the chords used tbh, the 'verse' parts seem to be A minor and D, the next section uses C, B, E minor. there may be a couple of variations which Ive not quite figured out yet but it is mainly built over those two progressions I think. I had another look at the description and it stated " perhaps make use of your C major, F lydian and G mixolydian modes in C Major when jamming to it " I might try those and see if I can find a home for them. I dont know too much about modes, other than being aware of their existence I didnt realise I had used part of the natural minor in there, I knew it sounded different from the scales I had been using. Natural minor would be the Aeolian? google informs me it is 'dark and sad' which must be why it sounded good to my ears because I really get drawn to that kind of vibe. Hey mate since it makes such a statement, it's clear that the mother scale for the track is C major - all those are modes belonging to the C major scale. In order to be ready to deploy modes I would like you to start by reading the following theoretical aspects and then we will discuss on them, so that we will make sure you understood the principles. I would like to show you how to use principles and not shapes https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=47641 - begin with this one https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0#entry634876 - then this one We'll take each one at a time, but first please read through and let me know what your impressions are, ok? |
