Using Chords as Leads over a Blues

Музыка

Check out the corresponding Patreon lesson if you're interested:
www.patreon.com/posts/chords-...
This is a solo from a series I'm doing on the Patreon that focuses on using small chord shapes as lead figures. These chord shapes are perfect for visualizing chord tones, targeting color notes not in the chords, shifting with the chords as they do, and just simply playing the chords themselves when they sound cool. In the lesson I talk about how valuable this tactic can be to add some great color to your playing, especially over something so overplayed like a 12 bar blues, which is often in dire need of extra color.

    I was wondering, have you ever heard of the tonnetz? Its kind of a spatial mapping of notes and chords. If you haven't, I think you should look into it a bit. I think you'd enjoy it, its very intuitive and helpful for me to grasp certain concepts.

    Only wish your patreon had tabs. However I’m going to take a year and see where the power ups get me. Starting with small arpeggios. This is buy far the best channel.

    A large focus of the patreon is to train your ear to the point that tabs are not necessary. I can confirm that the ear training will help people see that tabs are a crutch. A crutch that should be discarded as soon as possible.

    Thanks for the comment and the thread. In reality when you are learning something by ear, you actually never want to settle on a particular position. You can choose a particular position as maybe that is where your ear points initially, but you always want to have the other positions immediately available as other options. It's just the nature of guitar, there are so many ways to play The same thing. You want as many options available as possible. If all of the options are available, you'll be learning something by ear and you'll get to a point where you realize the initial position you chose is not allowing you to play the part correctly. But because you have other positions available, you can immediately adjust and continue. I've learned countless things at patron's request (including multiple solos by Julian Lage, Scott Henderson, Allan Holdsworth, Guthrie govan) and if I chose a position and stuck with it, I would be digging my own grave as there's a chance that position would lead me into a dead end. This is all doubly so when it comes to fingering as well, which is often way more important than simply what position you're in. It's tough and can be confusing, but you always want to do everything you can to take advantage of the sheer amount of ways to play the same thing on the instrument, It really is how the instrument works and is wildly different than others.

    Can you split some light on who was your teachers and inspiration? I mean your concepts of guitar teaching is kind of different from what I saw on YT... It is kinda pop oriented, but in a good eclectic way so to say... PS Hello from Russia))

    wow this is impressive! can u talk more abt your picking style? i see your pick but you use your other fingers quite a bit, no? also the low e string moves a lot but i don’t see it being plucked and don’t understand how that works, is it your palm?

    Thanks for the comment. I play with pick and fingers, many people call this hybrid picking. The E string is probably moving a lot because my palm sits on it as an anchor, when I'm not using it.
