This tune has a very sad emotional tone. The lesson features nice chord shifting and the backing track is Am Dm C B(dim) Am Fmaj7 G. It should also be an excellent way for beginners to make more use of their standard chords!

I tried to keep things as simple as possible so it won't be hard even if you started to play just recently. I hope you like it and have fun!

Today's lesson will focus on using the #4 Dorian mode in a modulation context. The backing track is based on an E min7th chord going into an E add 9 #11 chord.

A sequel to my previous lesson "Rock Solo".

Learn a solo over a modal progression where all chords are on the dorian mode.

WIll help you improve your alternate picking while playing in triplet feel. String skipping is also included.

Analyzing the fusion of the Dorian scale with the Blues scale.

This scale sounds funky and bluesy. Many guitarists use the Dorian mode in their solos, such as Vaughan, Santana, Eric Johnson, among others.

Uses the Dorian scale in the key of A with some added chromatic notes to create a jazzy bebop type of improvisation. Using chromatic notes can expand your playing in a fabulous way.
