That unit is a Roland GK-3 Divided Pickup. It delivers string performance data to my guitar synthesizer, the Roland’s GR-20. I have a review video online where I cover the details of that unit. Search my KZbin Channel for; "Roland Guitar Synth GR-20 - Review." Thanks for watching. - Andrew

I play bass on all of the jam-tracks for my videos, and I have a few basic bass guitar video lessons as well. Check my bass page at creativeguitarstudio [dot] com for those lessons. Thanks for your interest & for watching. - Andrew

[@creativeguitarstudio]

Thanks for the kind words... The handout and MP3 jam-track will be available on Sunday afternoon. Follow me on Twitter for an announcement of when it's posted on my blogsite. - Andrew

Simple yet powerful guide to modal harmony using guitar voicing - Thanks Andrew

[@creativeguitarstudio]

Thanks... And, it's been awhile since I can recall hearing the term melodicism used... maybe even since I was in Music College! Thank you again. - Andrew

Thanks, Andrew. Great start to 2013!

[@ViciousTechnologies]

ready for another year of your lessons. thanks Andrew. P.s Please post the rest of the 'Ode to Joy' classical finger style version :). Tom , Christchurch, New Zealand

Would it be right to call this sort of style a classical genre? Not particularly with the fancy chords, but just in general using clean tones and complex chord progressions. I often listen to and learn metal songs as that is where my interest lies, but I absolutely love writing music in this style. I just need a name for it.

Thank you very much! - Andrew

Thank you so much Andrew!!! This is just the pinnacle of effective guitar teaching!!! I can't seem to find the handout stuff in either of your websites though... could you help me please???

[@GregoryPantin]

hey andrew, whats the black thing below the bridge?

[@babyBmaj]

Great info Andrew!!! Much appreciated

[@RavenSungOfficial]

This would be along the lines of Fusion / Jazz if you'd like to place it in a genre, especially since it uses modal concepts and scale changes, which is very important in those certain genres.

[@clg102383]

On the worksheet page 3 example 4. Could you you call the chord Cmaj9 #11? Seeing that you have the D note in the chord. Love your lessons! Helps me confirm my knowledge and brush up on it as well :)
