Probably didn't take as much time to make as you think and I doubt it's that heavily scripted - this is a guy who knows music theory well who is explaining how he came up with the leads for a song he wrote - not sure why that would require so much time and such a rigid script. Why wouldn't they just get someone else to explain the song?

Regarding bending practice - I see now that the fact I used to change string gauge and tunings drastically and constantly over 10 years on just the ONE guitar has really slowed down my effective practice of bending. To do that properly today, I need to find the right string gauge that fit the one guitar with one tuning and stick to it. And play other styles with other guitars. Because no matter how long or how good you practice for example David Gilmour bends, if you suddenly change to much thicker strings and lower tunings on the same guitar, you kinda have to rethink and restart from the beginning and you sorta lose progress that had been achieved with lighter strings. ( Well if not lost, your progress is still very much pushed back a lot ) In sum, if you're gonna play with a bunch of different tunings, you need a bunch of guitars

@briandress24486 жыл бұрын
David Sim ok this makes sense. But let’s say the song is in the key of Em. F# is the second. So if I go and play of Em I’m playing in E but when I’m playing over F# I’m playing stil in the key of Em but I’m playing over the II in thebprogression right? So if I play the 2nd of F# that would be G# right? And then that would make the 2nd of the II the 3rd of the root? Or am I missing it?
@briandress24486 жыл бұрын
David Sim so this is something I have been chasing because what I do is play one chord in the key and then for lead I play the “scale shape” for that key, and it all fits. But I feel like it lacks color. In this scenario you are saying what I could do is play the lead based on the currently being played chord and focusing on notes that the next or previous chord also contains so it becomes more colorful and emotive for the chords being played?
@stefanotempesta61336 жыл бұрын

@tanykiat6 жыл бұрын
Yes, the major and minor scale can be used to find the 4th, 7th and 9th depending on whether it is a minor/major chord. Where it may get confusing if it is a major 7th or dominant 7th. For a C chord, the major 7th would be a B but a dominant 7th is a Bb. The 4th has no difference minor or major. The 9th is effectively a 2 but an octave higher.
@nunolance236 жыл бұрын
Skywalker it's always the interval of the note you're playing relating to the root of said chord (even if it's a minor chord). So, for example, the 4th in an Em7 is an A, the 4th in a Cmaj9 is an F. It doesn't really matter the scale you're thinking. If you play a Bb over a Cmaj chord, you are implying a C7 (C+E+G+Bb). If you play a B natural, you are implying a Cmaj7 (C+E+G+B). Does that make sense?
