Hello GMC!
Welcome to my new lesson! This time we will talk about writing a song! There are many awesome lessons about it on GMC, so too long lecture on this subject is unnecessary:)
The main riff is based on 4ds and 3rds intervals and simple chords with 3rd in bass. With a little swingy groove this combination makes pretty cool climate.
Solo part is built mainly on the major pentatonic scale.
Phrasing reminds me of Mark Knopfler style which I love.
We're going to use:
- vibrato,
- bending,
- hybrid picking,
- volume knob
This is the preset I used for the POD XT live for this lesson:
Amp: 1973 Hiway 100, Drive 9 - Bass 6 - Middle 6 - Treble 4 - Presence 7
Cab: 4x12 1967 Green 20s
Dly: Analog delay, Delay Time - 115 (quarter note) - Mix 26%
Rev: Medium Hall - Mix 50%
Stomp: Blue Comp (solo part)
The lesson is available in the guitar pro 5 file, mp3 backing tracks included.
Have fun!
