@@mrelmoresmusiclab I’ve been playing the same stuff for 40 years. Just started to really learn what I’ve been playing by ear. You explained it in a way I could relate to. I subscribed and will be checking in with you. Good luck with the channel.
Awesome! Thanks so much for the feedback. I'm tyring to figure out this YT thing. ha. I don't think I made them for this vid, but here is the basic idea and I have made them for a ton of my other vids. Keep going one day at a time. Let me know if you get the charts. :) www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/j62jgpa6nk9fr50m8xhtc/APugVQeS_QFB0iV2uEyUgzk?rlkey=2vtge50c91ey1qhuoeozecon3&st=gux9b7xm&dl=0
Thank you so much! These are some of the funniest videos for me to make, however, they’re not getting a lot of views as of yet. I just think it’s super cool to show people kind of what goes on behind the scenes. Especially since we’re in the very early phases of this. Keep going one day at a time.😎
@@mrelmoresmusiclab Touched a nerve for me as I am at the stage in my playing (and in no short measure thanks to your excellent tutorage/tips) where I'm ready to find/start a band. *I should add 'again' to that sentence as I was formerly in bands - just after the last ice-age; but, I'd really love to do it again - especially with all the advancements in kit etc....all we had as 100w stacks wound up to 11 😀 So, I'm really enjoying this mini-series. Do come and tour the UK when you've polished it!
Well, that makes me so happy to hear. I did a pole the other day about people being afraid to play music with others. It was shockingly in the majority that everyone was too afraid or fearful to play music with others. I’m almost feel like I’m on a mission to show people that you have to try this because it’s the most amazing thing ever. Kudos to you, and definitely hit me back and let me know how it’s going. I think it would be pretty amazing to have people on this channel network and create some music together. One day at a time, my friend. And yes, man I would love to tour the UK. I was in a band touring in the 90s and they are still together to this day. Ha ha. Definitely going to get a side project and a bunch of original music released soon. On a sidenote, did I hear that oasis is reuniting?
@@mrelmoresmusiclab Great stuff - I've said all my life that being in a band is simply one of the things a young (or older) person can do. It's great for building confidence, learning of course and for discipline.....as I recall, an all-important thing to learn is that the sound is all about the mix (guitarists take note!!) I'm lucky in that I have access to a barn which has loads of power so a rehearsal studio is not a problem - I do like the studio that your chum has built though and would consider customising my own basement in time. Ha ha yes! Oasis. It's amazing how family feuds and rifts can be healed with absolutely no sense of irony what-so-ever when a bit of extra cash is needed!! I'm being cynical of course; they were an amazing band of their time and whilst their live performance wasn't up to much, their presence on stage was pretty cool....the tickets will have sold out already of course although the dates haven't yet been announced!
I think learning to read music is awesome. However, every single time I’ve done a session in the studio. It’s only been required that I read chord charts. unless the Producer artist had a very specific melody sometimes I would request that it be notated. But most of them couldn’t read themselves. Ha ha. So I would say if you’re not going to learn how to read music, you should at least get really amazing at learning how to charts and know multiple voicings for those chords and whatever genre you’re going for. Just my opinion, but it’s always great to hear other thoughts as well.
That's a great question. I will make sure to do a whole video on this. Technically, a triad is just a chord, so you could mix and match triads into your playing with other chords. Lots more to come, so stay tuned. :)
Those are D Addario Phosphorus Bronze the 12-53's Love them. I also play the D Addario XT sets same gauge as well. The Yamaha is such a great guitar. You know!
Thank you so much. Stoked to make them for you. I hope I can better and better. RU-vid is like the guitar...a long journey, but you have to keep going one day at time. :)
Great vid I was thinkng about triads I just heard of them recently I studied music in a class in college, but I never been able to read music, even though I play several instruments, it's also tough cause I can't use my pinky when I play guitar my the middle two finger become non responsive when I use the guitar 😢 so I'm gonna have to use my first three fingers to do the triad oh well
Thanks so much for sharing your story. I think you are going to create your own style and vibes for sure. You are totally going to figure it out. I think Django Reinhardt messed up his hand in a fire and he was an amazing gypsy jazz guy. Tony Iommi cut parts of his fingers and rocked Black Sabbath. You are going to crush it. Keep going and thanks for watching. Lots more to come.
My pleasure! Super stoked to help out anyway I can. We all have a path in the world of guitar. Having fun is goal number one and the rest is easy. Keep going one day at a time.
Thanks for sharing and yep, you got it. That's why I am always saying connect the dots. I will see what I can whip up for you. This might help a touch too. Let me know until I make some new ones. Lots more to come. Keep going one day at a time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Znxt4GIRf1U.html
Jellyfishing again... You know to be honest, never intentionally listened to the Pumpkins before. Don't know why they're center cut in the music I love. Thanks for opening my eyes to that. Enjoying them
Hey Jellyfish...they are so good. Just listen to how beautifully layered all of their music is. I got to work with their producer in LA for awhile and it was fun picking his brain. My ex used to jam with Billy for a bit too. I've always loved their style.
I wish Butch, no a dude named Kerry Brown. He was helping me for a bit on my tv show I was working on. He used to be married to DArcy the bass player chick from the Pumpkins too. If met Butch I would have to pick his brain for days on end. lol.
Wow! thanks so much for that. I'm just stoked YT is finally pushing my vids out a bit more. It took me a bit of time to figure this out, but I think I'm starting to carve out my space. Just take it in small chunks and connect it over time. Happy to help in any way I can and super stoked to have you here. Keep going jellyfish.
You should definitely consider making a video for all the chords like the three in your playlist! This was VERY helpful for me. You rock man, thank you!
You got it bud. I know I kind of abandoned that playlist, but I think you have proven that it will help a lot of people. I will give it a look over and get that going for you. Thanks for watching that. I will say don’t sell yourself short on some of my more advanced vids too. I think you could totally take away some pieces and a make it work for you. Keep going.
If you don't mind, I would love for you to watch this and let me know if any of it makes sense for you, or if there is anything useful in there for you. I think you could totally do it. Thank you! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ke8pyyPO_TI.html
So awesome to hear and thank you. Yeah, just trying to figure out my space on YT. I think giving you things in smaller chunks that you connect in the broader picture is the way to go. Stoked it helped. Keep going and keep connecting the dots. So fun!
This is great gives me some ideas for acoustic. Like instead of just playing songs using barre chords at full rock out. Could maybe play verses using triads for that thinner sound then during the chorus use barre chords for that bigger fuller sound to add more contrast and dynamics to playing 🎸👍
Yes, you got exactly what I was trying to convey without me saying it. That is connecting the dots right there. Do exactly what you just said and you are right there. Keep going.
I always appreciate theory mixed in with real world songs. Without context, not much of it makes sense to most people. Specifically me. Old Beatles songs are great for that purpose. Along with many others.
You are so right about this. I have this Beatles book and it is like a treasure trove of chord voicings. I swear I turned to the first song and looke at a progression. It was like a F# min to F#mMaj7 to F#m7 to B7. Amazing! That right there could teach you so much about the craft of music. Something along those lines and I was just blown away by it. I'm so glad my mom used to pump Beatle's songs throughout the house. I love songwriting and finding voicings that bring about feelings. That's what drives me any ways. Keep going.
Thanks for watching and for the reply. I totally get the part about horizontal charts. If I ever make anything off platform, I would definitely be sure to make both. Keep going one day at a time and hope you come back.😎
extremely useful information at the 4:00 mark.. I like the triad segment that starts at 13th fret to the 8th, 3rd fret and then two shapes at the fifth fret. Seems very easy to play! Thanks brother!
Awesome. Kind of just made this one on a whim. But...that's just a couple of real world ways I do it. And yes....check out The Funeral by Band of Horses and you will hear that super cool triad intro. Those things just work and always will work. Have fun with it. :)
