If I had to describe myself as a mode it would be Lydian; Not quite of this world, strangely optimistic, and unstable.
@TheArtofGuitar4 жыл бұрын
You and me both. Ionian would be too basic, Aeolian would be too somber, and Locrian would be too whacky. Lydian is the way to be.

Just wonderful, been searching for "shred on guitar" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ganyatty Guitar Gainify - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my co-worker got great success with it.

Exactly ! I have studied modes more than most people ! This guy is a good person im sure but he is not doing any of you a favor ! hes mearly allowing you to hear what a mode sounds like ! And he should tell you this from the start which only causes confusion! Yes notes on a Guitar fret board have no tonal character at all regardless of Major scale pentatonic dont matter ... The underlying tone bring all scales to life...Otherwise Pointless intervals

when I first approached the 7 patts of a major scale, to have full understanding of the fretbord, I asked myself if the modes matches each patt, and I denied that, thinking that modes of a key dont have the same notes. It bothered me for a while, until I saw this video and realized that my wonder was accurate, and the modes of a key dont change in terms of note themselves but their order and when we emphasis the rot of the mode. thanks loads for this video mate!

For years, I have been playing guitar without properly knowing these modes. I mean, i know the major G scale by heart but modes are alien to me. Maybe I have played these modes before but I just do not know their names. Similar to a situation wherein a person is familiar to me but I dont know their names. This video is very helpful to guitarists like me who are lacking knowledge in this area. Genuine Thank you sir Mike for explaining this topic in terms that I could grasp.

I've been told to always remember to keep cognizant of our picking while doing scale exercises and pick up and down. I notice you picked only down during the first part of the demonstration of each mode. If this was deliberate,I call that genius as it helps a beginner to concentrate more on the scale. Nice
@eagles_s4 жыл бұрын
The modes follow the qualities of the chords in a given scale. The backing tracks are chords that add and emphasize certain notes (7ths) . The extra tone allows more of the notes in each mode to be played, thus differentiating each mode.
@cameronedwards33302 жыл бұрын
But he’s playing all the same notes just starts on a different one depending on the mode? How does that work?
@casilatino Жыл бұрын
That’s the question I have but I must say that at least I am realizing that different modes sound nice over certain chords, just don’t know why yet. For example, I was just playing the E-G-A-E chord progression while playing in E mixolydian mode (A major scale) over E chord then switched to the E Aeolian mode (G major scale) over the G chord then I played the D major scale over the A chord (A mixolydian mode) and it worked, I just don’t quite get why yet. Even though I was playing the G major scale over the G chord, I was playing in the Aeolian mode to make it sound better. I think I am on the verge of making a breakthrough.

Long ago, i decided that i would, sort of, ignore modes and just let my fingers land where they fall during solos. I am not sure if what i am playing is using any modes. To me, i sound repetitious, sometimes, but when i venture out of my comfort zone during a solo and find myself landing on some wrong notes, i wonder if how i recover from that while playing leads me into using modes or parts of a mode when i don't even know i am doing it.
