It's really interesting, especially when he talks about using octave chords so he can choose different tonalities afterwards with his vocals and whatnot. It's really worth a watch to anyone who's writing their own songs etc.. You don't even have to be a fan to appreciate this.. I've only heard bits of Devin's music over the years but still I was fascinated. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Haha, yeah. I thought it was funny he said that when earlier he's like '..hit this C# here, and another one here..' I don't think he's quite as musically illiterate as he'll have as believe. He probably knows enough to help himself figure out what he needs to do and no more. A bit like me You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Wise words mate We may seem illiterate in comparison to a Berklee genius or so, but we all know our way around things - as I am sure he does Who knows, if he compares himself with Steve Vai who knows music as his native tongue, it makes sense You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
