Marcus Lavendell11th October 2007Wonderful! Great lesson Jerry!
Juan M. Valero11th October 2007Excellent Jerry this lesson is really cool, I like how you play this tapping over the chord and the excelent harmonics
Great lesson !!!!!- Jerry Arcidiacono11th October 2007
Thank you again, guys!
rmp5s: The chord progression is quite simple (E, C#m7, A...). In the key of C major this is C, Am7, F...
So, they are very common chords, expecially in pop music.
For this lesson I wrote the melody before. After that I made the backing track with the harmony.
I have followed my ear and the mood to write the melody. - rmp5s11th October 2007
Very cool. How did you come up with the progressions and all that? I have no problem playing it...I want to be able to grasp the concept behind how you came up with it better so I can better come up with my own. Thanks, man!

Kristofer Dahl10th October 2007This is a unique sounding lesson Jerry!
I have always wanted to play melodies on top of the chords - tapping sure is a great way to do it.

Hi everybody! In this lesson I will show you how to create a melodic sound using many techniques and a clean tone.
Some musicians think that guitarists are always trying to play with a lot of distortion. The electric guitar can be a very versatile instrument. Also when you play with a clean tone.
You can find some fingerings that require a little stretch. I would like to read your feedback. I made a Guitar Pro file and two backing tracks at different tempo.
Time signature: 4/4
Tempo: 72 bpm
