Ok! So, since I joined GMC Ive gained alot of skills, I feel ive progressed really well with all the lessons, always striving for perfection. Since ive been doing Muris's alternate picking lessons I feel my alternate picking has come on leaps and bounds!! Technically, I can see no limits in terms of being able to play - as long as I put in the hard work which I do. I started here with no skills and a cheap guitar, which in the long run has paid of because I had no "bad habits" to correct
In the back of my mind though, something is forever bothering me....... CHORDS!!! Who saw that comeing?
I have studied intervals hard, and after reading andrews cool lessons on chooseing chords for scales I understand how chords are contructed.
Im still baffled about how to really get creative with Chords. Some Guitarist ive spokn say they just form chord progressions on the fly, in there heads - but this is really of no use to me
Can anyone please give me some step by step advice on how to get creative with chords/ chord progressions? The thing is, I could quite happily sit down and work out what chords go with which scale, but is this how you guys do it?
Also, how do I know which fingering I should be useing anyway? I know the fretboard pitches inside out, but im never sure if im useing the right fingers. Where should I learn?
Ive long admired Muris and Gabriels backing tracks, maybe you guys could guide me a little?
Many thanks!!!
