Yes, he is targeting the root (f#) and then the b3rd (C#) over F#m.
THE F#m + 5 are you targeting a c# tone there?
That was like a breath of fresh air Ben. Thank you for the great inspiration you give us.
Thanks guys
I must say, great harmonizing. I will study this clip.)
Speed isn't everything:)
Always great Ben
really nice song, I loved the bends, and the vibrato was awesome.
Cool lesson Ben. Really like this happy mood and tasty phrasing chops
Great topic, Ben! ...and your playing - fantastic as always. Love the melodic lines and phrases. It will be very useful for me and everyone of course
Thanks, my friend!
And I must add: I love the bends in this track.
Anything from Ben is rapidly bookmarked after the first listen!
THE PROFESSOR As you can hear in this melodic rock lesson from expert guitarist Ben, learning how to target chord tones is an essential part in the learning process when exploring the sounds of players such as Marty Friedman, Kirk Hammett and other melodic metal shredders.
By working out Major Scales for Guitar, Natural Minor Scales for Guitar as well as Major Arpeggios on the guitar, you will not only expand your theoretical and fretboard knowledge, but you will make sure you are prepared to rock in the style of Marty Friedman and his peers as you heard and learned in this lesson.
