I didn't really become insufferable until I started talking about being a "modal player". So I'll answer "modes".

I personally struggled thinking Mixolydian. My dad would show me interesting ideas with it when I was a little kid, but I never understood it fully. Like instead of minor pentatonic over a chord progression in A minor, he would start by thinking in melodic minor then all of a sudden start borrowing from F mixolydian. Sounded absolutely beautiful

you teach so well, your guitar sounds so good and you have the best background on KZread. bravo!

Thank you so so much again for your soulful and enlightening lessons. Love the way that you invite the feeling in. Going to Patreon 🙏🏻

Thanks! I appreciate your style of teaching, especially your encouragement to really hear the scale 🙏

Truly love your content and the way you see and explain things about the guitar and music in general. Thank you for being ❤️

That's the best lesson on Melodic Minor i have studied! Thx Rotem!

This is by far the best explanation of this scale on the internet.

Great lesson Rotem!

Great video. For fingerings another way to think of it is a major scale with a flat3, so all major scale positions you know will work if you just use the minor 3rd

Information like this is why I recently became one of your Patrons! Thanks for posting

Love the melodic minor such a versatile scale and great sounding. Very thorough and excellent lesson, liking your zen type approach. Always great content from yourself. Worst scale to learn? Getting the sound of the standalone altered scale in my head and the various diminished scales. They're all kinda related so my brain gets in a bit of a tangle! 😂.

So good lesson ever!! Thx a lot ..from INDONESIA 🇲🇨😇

Learning Patsy Cline's Crazy the other day, that has a Minor Major 7 in it for a bar. It also has some sweet chromatic walkups and walk downs at the end of each section. I was shocked to find out Willie Nelson wrote it. Really cool Jazz take on a Country standard alternate bass thing. Common for things of the time to have secondary dominants, but this was a whole vibe. Starts right out with an A Major Chord, Root Note, then a G Natural into an F # Major heading to B Minor, B Minor Major 7, E, then a walkup. And that's the verse. Pretty dope stuff.

As the story goes it was originally an up-tempo tune when written by Willie, Patsy convinced him it was a ballad.

Love it. Thanks

When you said close your eyes, I did (wasn't going to) and I really heard that pull at 6 and especially 7. Kind of like when you tune your strings from below the reference note up to the reference note you hear that oscillation until it resolves perfectly.. I didn't hear that when I was watching the first time. Nice lesson, shut out all distraction and use your ears.

謝謝你😭非常詳細的課程

I love that you sing the scales, and use a drone. 🙂 your approach makes even an untrained ear player like me able to understand, let’s me use my intuitive listening skills, as you say to feel the pattern, the emotional tension. And now I know, that I’ve used bits of the pattern, just not the stranger last 3 notes, because I don’t run scales, never have, but I certainly play them now. I play lead to popish jazz on Pandora and after 4 years not only do I know most of the structural parts of songs I used to noodle over, I’ve moved from piano parts to horn parts, and finally to guitar parts Chuck Loeb, Strandring, who both take it further than Larry Carlton, now I’m hearing that some of these lead lines are actually played with octaves when I barely noticed, just that the “notes” sounded odd took me a while to learn why but once I did one day I peeled of an octave run. As for melodic minor somebody? & Ferrah classical guitar duet, I AM doing melodic minor, I’m like a sponge Yeah at first just pentatonic but as I play I’m hearing these other notes from them…..a few weeks later it seeps into my playing. Chords….? Now, that’s a different animal entirely, but the facility and touch I’ve gained will serve me well, double stops and sweeps have brought me to a couple of jazzy chords just looking at the pattern I’ve made and holding it as a chord. Pattern recognition is my forte in life. And those 2 elements will lead me to triads finally, for the chord part I may get a teacher, like you, who will have a chord modulation circle or 2 I could gain facility on. I’m old, but all this started with. A Joe Pass guitar clinic, in ‘78 yet I only just got serious, playing 6 days a week as of 2017. Keep up the good work, 🙂

What a class!!

THANKS!

Thanks man

I haven't dived too much in the melodic minor but when I jam on a minor song and the 5 chord drops in I use the harmonic minor scale and sits pretty well. Thanks for the lesson, definitely going to look at this scale more deeply

Hey Rotem! Love your videos man! Here and on instagram! Great tips as always! If you don't mind answering me. What do you use to let the note ringing behind? Is it a looper or a delay? Or maybe both for ambience? Thanks man!

So glad to hear Fa diez and Sol diez instead of F sharp and G sharp))

Rotem, great tutorial. What is the guitar you are using in the video? Beautiful instrument.

Great lesson, thank you!! How do you get that ambient tone for practicing? 😁

It’s an EHX Freeze pedal. There are much cheaper alternatives, google will help you out (edited for spelling)

So you're saying that over any 7 chord, starting the melodic minor from a half step up is going to give the altered sound? Radical!

I was filling in a few years ago in a jazz club on guitar and things were going well. After the gig this old horn fella turns to me and asks if I’m good with my hands. I glance back at the stage and say “haha well, I’d like to think so; how did I do?” He says no, can you build shit? I said well actually I’m a decent handyman and carpenter. He says “my brotha listen to me you good and that’s fine you all over that mug but you need to know the right tool for the job. I didn’t finish my drink I hauled ass home and practiced until my fingers were bleeding under the nails!

thanks for the vids! side question: is the duo sonic worth it?... im all about cheap guitars these days, but it's price point is high enough that im not sure if im better off using the $700ish on a nicer guitar since it's beyond the 'budget' price point

👏👏👏

Hey Rotem I have a silly question since I could just figure it out myself... Do you play the melodic minor differently when defending? Like natural minor? I don't think you are. I'm just a little confused about it because they kept telling us we have to play natural minor when defending the melodic minor. Is it only in classical music and not so much in jazz? Thank you so much for these lessons and your time. You are very passionate and motivating, I finally started working on the melodic minor scale thanks to you. כל טוב.

How u sond like piano !? Ist your guitar or a specific pedal?

How do you play A melodic minor over Ab7 when the notes are different?

So yeah, singing A's is the sh*t.. (😬)... is whats up... is the ........... (wait for it) SH*T 😆 Great vid bro

Reminds me of a yoga lesson

I thought the natural minor had to played on they way down (flat the 6th and 7th)?

You re reading notes fa diyez, sol diyez, la, si, do. We re reading notes like this in turkey too. Where did you learn that?

8'08'' wauu brividi..

Great lesson, thank you for taking your time with each note! What guitar are you playing? If Rotem doesn’t answer, does anyone know the name of that guitar? Thank you in advance.

harmonic minor is the hardest to drop on a song to me, even if I know perfectly the fingering, some licks sounds wrong

I thought, the Altered Scale is the 7th Mode (MM7), therefore it should be Melodic Minor in A over a G#7alt chord. Not over A7. Did I make a mistake?

He played Ab7 not an A7 so you are right just got the chord wrong by a half step
