Hi Guys,
So I think a lot of you guys have been following my MTP thread and have been hearing me harp on my group to use the Kaz-box aka the metronome. Some of my mentorees and I are going to be starting the Intermediate lesson in Muris's Lydian Phrasing serial and we have noticed that the timing in this bad boy is pretty tricky. I thought it might be helpful to make a series of videos breaking down this lesson bar by bar and going over exactly how to phrase each bar with the metronome. That way if you get to a bar and you are having trouble with it.....you have an easy soloution to be able slow it down and work it up to speed. You can't do this if you don't know how to count it using the Kaz-box. I PM'd Andrew and asked him if it would be OK for me to do this and he said it was sooooo.......I'll be posting the videos in this first post....breaking down each bar and demonstrating how to play it with the metronome. A lot of tricky yet cool rhythms in this one. Anybody who is interested go ahead and download the tab and keep checking back and we'll break down this cool lesson from the Bosnian Beast!!!  EDIT: For anybody wanting to follow along....If you would check out Kris's great lesson on the metronome and the different note values it will help you understand what I am talking about in the videos. http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/memberson...a-metronome.htm INTRO: BARS 1-2 Bars 3-4 Tab explanation This post has been edited by lcsdds: May 3 2009, 08:39 PM

This is a great idea Monte so thumbs up bro!!
I think myself and a lot of member here at GMC will finds this very useful. As you know Muris "The Bosnian Monster" has asked me to play this also, so he must not like me or something.   Not sure what I did to anger the man but it may please him if I could play this. So, I would like to watch this thread and work on this solo if it is OK with you and everyone else. You da man Monte

The same thing will happen with your audience if your solo is one dimensional. You'll wear them out and lose their attention." —Tom Principato

Videos are great but can you sit up or turn the recording input up some. The guitar I can hear but you words fall to the back and I would like to have that louder.

I noticed the low volume after I made it. I think the next video is better.....and I'll turn up the input and speak louder for the next video. Sorry for the low volume.....still working out the bugs obviously!!

I'll be uploading bars 3 and 4 shortly and then I'm going out of town tomorrow so I won't put up any more videos until Monday. Probably get through bar 9 by then. If there is something that needs clarification or that I didn't do a very good job of explaining in these videos let me know and I'll address it in the subsequent videos. Hope these are helping somebody.

Hi Guys....Anybody who is following along could you please go up to the first post and download the GP file for this lesson. I have made some notations on it that I think will help. Then next few bars are kind of tricky to count and get to sound right with the drum beat. They look simple on the tab but there are a few things that are easy to overlook that make it sound very cool and also add to the difficulty of counting these.
I'll probably have the next two phrases up by Wed. This post has been edited by lcsdds: Mar 16 2009, 04:55 PM |

Worked with this last night Monte. Im really starting to see the benefits counting and following along how you tabbed this out in GP.
I was getting lost before with the backing tracks but now I can pretty easily follow along now with just a generic drum beat or metronome. Its all I worked on last night but its getting cool now. -------------------- My Gear

Cool Dan...I should have a couple of vids up today explaining the notations I made on the tab. starting at bar 7 the timing gets pretty tricky.

I am at that part now learning it. Its definately going to be a chore to get those runs up to speed.
