One thing that improved my guitar playing the MOST: Double Stops!

Музыка

Learning how to play double stops in all forms, all over the guitar fretboard was one of the best things I ever learned. Suddenly I felt like I understood the guitar better, music theory more, and could play much more interesting, dynamic guitar solos in blues, rock, funk, soul, RnB and more! In this guitar lesson we'll go over how to play the three most common types of double stops in electric guitar: blues, thirds, and sixes.
On our Patreon group we will have all the tabs plus lots more double-stop guitar licks and other lessons that will take your guitar solos to the next level and help you to understand music and the guitar fretboard on a deeper level.

    Really like how this matched some very basic things I (and most of us) already know.. into something only slightly larger but then SO practical and useful.. and in each section it's immediately shown how to use each in a cool and versatile way. And really appreciate the laid back 🇨🇦 (it seems to me) style. Subscribed for sure.

    Listening to double stops in records, I used to think the guitarist was double-tracking. Thanks for explaining so well!

    Thank you! Double tracking is a thing too, but these don't need that studio magic.

    Great lesson. May I add that double stop “6ths” are picked out of a 3-5-1 triad. In this case the 3-1 is an inverted M3-1 or hence a m6th referred to commonly as a 6th. You can also pick ‘em out of 5-1-3 triads. Use the 5-3 pair. Use the 5 as your reference point to travel up and down the diatonic scale in correct intervals like you do for the root (1). The importance of knowing your triads and picturing them about the root on all four string sets. Picking them out this way gives you the correct version of the 3rd (major or minor) depending on the chordal key harmony.

    Thank you! I should do a video on that too, not sure I've mentioned that the third "double stop" could be the iii chord, but also the I chord since they are ambiguous in that way, but highly useful :)

    Great lesson. How did you play the two double stops with the blue note?

  • @GuitarLessonsVancouver

    @GuitarLessonsVancouver

    2 ай бұрын

    Thank you! Double stops with the blue note would be uncommon unless you slide out of it real quick. For example, if you just slide into this double stop where the extension shape starts, from one fret below, you would be using the blue note: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g5ZkpJOzXcXfmrg.htmlsi=BoMndBn3yzwoN97M&t=171

    For the "7th" "7th" (frets) example in a blues context, I like to think of it in terms of intervals and in relation to the "A" root or "D" root to help know when to use it (with chord changes). For "A", that would be a 4th and a 6th. The 4th is in your "A" minor pentatonic and the 6th, while being you "D" major 3rd, is also your 6th that you can find in the "A" major pentatonic and mixing minor and major pentatonic for blues is a lot of fun sometimes😄.
