When using number system, the count uses Alphabet. So if key is A, a 1/4/5 would be A is the 1 so starting on A, count 4 out from A and you get D cord as the 4, count 5 out from A and you get E as the 5 cord. So if you play in key of E. E is the 1 cord, count 4 out from E in Alphabetical order and the 4 cord is A. And the 5 cord is the B cord In a 1/4/5 progression. You guys are awesome!!!!! I tried yo go a little further with explanation as I recently just learned this myself. I hope I didn't step on your toes fellas.

The Chord Scales, Nashville Numbers and barre chords all coming together was the biggest leap my playing, theory and fretboard understanding took. It turns the fretboard into kind of a music theory abacus that calculates all the intervals and relative scales in just a second. Understanding those was the gold nugget I wish I’d figured out earlier.

Take note young guitarlings. Tip number 2 and it's variants, are some of the single most valuable tips for any novice guitar player to convince those around you that you rock!! NEVER break time, EVEN if you can't make the chord change. And, if in doubt - SLIDE is an excellent Bass tip as well.
@FurtiveSkeptical3 жыл бұрын
Agreed. Don't stop playing.... The real art of falling off the songbus is to be waiting at the next stop (1 count/chord change) instrument in hand without slowing/stopping the bus. If all else fails, frame the botched solo/bridge in a tight beginning and tight ending. You'd be surprised how often the room forgets the awful, chunky milk style version of the solo just played in the middle only to applause a smooth tight finish. Oh and keep smiling

Grrreat vid you guys--yeah you are most definately out of the Guild. I thought the number one tip was when somebody asks you "what do I need to do learn to how to play guitar" the answer is "don't start" (there's too many damn guitarists in the world). I do have a gigging tip that has 2 parts-1) don't show up to a gig so drunk that 2) you set up a preamp/multieffect unit upside down on your cabinet, so you spend 2 or more sets reading the setting numbers wrong. Darn 606, what's going on? And the knobs give you the opposite result too! Unfortunately this happened to someone else and I wasn't there to experience the fun! A friend's guitarist pulled this at a gig. Drink up buttercup-I think he passed out before the 3rd set. Good times...
@Jack.Waters4 жыл бұрын
Truly: was driving me nuts, when starting Guitar. They say, 'Your in C Key because your starting at a C as the Root.' !?!?!?! I'm like really people? What does it matter where I start? If when I am in Key of G and every time I come across an F I play it Sharp. It was much easier when I just simply ignored them. Or If I see 2# in the Stanza I'm going to be playing all C's and F's sharp. Doesn't matter if the first note is a G. Oh yeah, and that would be the Key of A. Tip:: Strings on your Guitar GDAE (not counting (e)&B here) 1,2,3,4, G 1# - D 2#s - A 3#s - E 4#s Sharps are always in the order of FCGD. (yeah I know. Easier on a Violin cause their strings are GDAE) Most of will most likely never see music with more than 4 sharps. Rarely 3#s. As a child I played orchestra with a 100 others. No one is going to wait for you, especially the percussionist. Fake it until you make it back in cleanly, is the Rule. This is why I have spent so much time in running scales and learning the Fret Board. It makes learning the music so much easier when you don't have to think about where the finger go and your not looking at which string you need to strum/pluck. Thanks DØVYDAS and Sean for re-impacting my beliefs in learning a new instrument. Keep the Beat, Learn the where the fingers go, Run the Scales. Fake it till you Make it, be ready for Changes. Got it. That's 5 right? Prime - YES!

Hey everyone! I know I'm asking much but I could really use your help... I am a highschool student who just got interested in music. Before I wasn't really interested in anything music related maybe because I wasn't exposed with music until there was a new event at our school called "battle of the bands". Since the event was scheduled after school hours, I was not planning in watching and was ready to go home then my friend convinced me to attend. I don't have any plans or anything to do at home so I went with him to watch the event. When the first band showed up, I was really blown away by the performance and the music especially the guitar player when it was the solo part making me more interested and curious on what might the other band play. It was a really fun experience that after the event, I thought to myself if I can be like them, if even I can play music. Their performances gave me motivation to play music and now, one of my goals is to join a band and perform at the stage. I want to start to play music specifically playing the electric guitar but I can't since my family is really strict about money and don't support my passion for music. So I am asking again for help if you can to support me in getting a guitar and some gears so I can start my journey on learning music because I am excited to learn to play guitar and perform at a crowd of people. Also, Thank you to everyone in advance who is able to help donate as well as sharing! www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=9PYBAU7W443CQ

You got a watch the Grateful Dead and how they signal each other. And also they have little squares of gaffer tape or duct tape on the floor and so when they were looking down the square helps them know exactly where the mic is and they step in to the Square but I think that when the dead have these little squares on stage they also use them to see when the singing is going to happen again they’ll step into the Square so that everybody’s ready. Then the next verse happens.And obviously when they’re having a jam that only somewhat has a structured they need to know when they’re going to go back into the words.

5+ Tips Professional Players Don’t Want You to Know (Synopsis) Number 1: Play a scale from any finger (any of your fingers). This opens the fretboard and makes you more versatile and it opens up the fretboard. Number 2: Buy yourself time. If you forget what chord comes next, palm mute the strings and keep, the rhythm. This works so well you can do it for an entire set! You can also slide along any string to draw the listeners’ ears away from the fact that you are only palm muting. Also try stopping, play nothing for dramatic effect. Playing nothing is always better than playing something that is outside of the key. (more on key signatures below) Number 3 Don’t know the chord progression? Play this magical chord. What is this chord? Probably the same chord you hear in your church’s contemporary band. It’s the same chord is used by the Irish band U2. Now You can use it too! U2 = You Too Number 4 Watch and listen to the lead singer because he/she will invariably change the song’s structure while you are playing live. They will repeat the bridge etc. So, sometimes guitarists forget their part, and sometimes singers do too. This also a good place to use the slide (Tip2) Number 5 Communication is important, even in a band. Hand gestures or nods (The Tale of the Nod is a good example from Sean). It’s better to practice your nods and signals before a performance. If you create secret words such as “Take a pitch,” make sure everyone important in the band understands what that secret word really means. Chord Scales: Understand how key signatures work and an easy way is to learn is to study the Nashville Number System. It’s a system (Wizard Knowledge) that was invented in the city of Nashville but it works in every city in the world, every genre of music. It’s the “Everything Bagel” of song structures, chords and soloing. If humble hill people of Tennessee can figure it out, you can too. Be sure to sign up for the soloing course. Link is above.
