Adrian Figallo18th September 2011i might give this one a go, i don't know much about neo classical approaches
zoom18th September 2011Cool Cosmin! I play these arpeggios a bit in my playing but there takes it further. I'll get into these.

Hey there GMC army!
In this lesson, we'll start exploring a little bit of classically inspired combination between arpeggios and scales, harmonizing the D major scale and highlighting its modes.
What are they good for? Why, you can always use them when playing over a chord which could harmonize the D major scale and moreover, if you are curious, you can apply this idea in the context of other scales!
What does harmonizing mean? Instead of playing single notes of the major scale, we can play chords instead, belonging to each step of that scale. These chords are usually made up of notes belonging to that particular scale!
What can you develop with the aid of this lesson:
- learn how to combine arpeggios and scales
- using the modes
- working out your alternate picking skills
Tuning: Drop D (D A D G B E)
Meter: 4/4
Tonality: D major
Modes:
- D Ionian (D E F# G A B C# D)
- E Dorian (E F# G A B C# D E)
- F# Phrygian (F# G A B C# D E F#)
- G Lydian (G A B C# D E F# G)
Progression: (only the bass is heard, but you can play the following chords) Dmaj, Emin, F#min, Gmaj, Dmaj
Tone settings:
Bass – 10 o’clock
Mids – 9 o’clock
Highs – 12 o’clock
Gain – 2 o’clock
I have obtained this by using the clean channel of my AMT ss20 Pre-amp.
