In this video I discuss my approach to soloing interestingly and melodically over chord changes. At 05:44 I say C# when I should say G#! To clarify the chord progression is: E-C#m-E-C#m-Bm-A-G#7-A

As a couple of you have pointed out, I misspeak at 05:44 and say C# when I should of course say G#. To clarify, the chord progression is: E-C#m-E-C#m-Bm-A-G#7-A.

"noodling up and down scales and regurgitating stock phrases and licks" Ouch, I took that personally. Always the best videos. My neighbors and I appreciate what you've done for my playing.

@docsketchy Год назад

Well, this might just be the single greatest guitar tutorial I've ever seen on RU-vid. It's crystal clear, easy to follow, and builds up an essential skill from very basic beginnings. Well done!

@cheintz44 10 месяцев назад

Totally agree

@tomneal1789 7 месяцев назад

Videos like this convince me that chord tone soloing is really the single most important thing to work on for lead guitar.

@Vespel007 3 месяца назад

Chord tones/triads supported by the pentatonic shape on it, it's the key for me. As extra, if you throw as passing notes some minor/major scale notes of the main key that are not in the chord tones nor pentatonic (e.g.-not in minor penta- 2nd, 6th, b5 etc.) that makes the receipt for more than 95% impro/soloing.

Great solo at the start! I am just starting to get into triads and chord tones, it definitely opens up new avenues. Top content, thank you

@robindavis726 Год назад

This is the most straightforward, comprehensive explanation of chord tone soloing, and its developmental steps, I have ever seen. I have seen many of them. I am pretty far down the path of this. But it would have been good to have had this a couple of years ago, although there are certainly benefits to having organically hashed it out on my own from self-study and the bits and pieces one gleans from various sources. This is very well done.

@MarceloHenkin Год назад

great video as always, thanks for your videos! It would be great if you could make a "sequence" to this video, comparing this approach to the other one where you focus on the key, on one scale, and demonstrating with an example, just like this video. This "key approach" will work if the chords used are from one specific key...but even if it works and you could use only one scale, it would be interesting to show how both ways work, and to see which one results in a "more pleasing improvisation".

@thefactorycollective 9 месяцев назад

Well done on the chord tone soloing and beautiful chord progression. The other half would be your choice in tone, attack, bending/sliding, and holding/muting of your ending phrases. That's really what makes YOU you. I think you would do a great job doing another tutorial on the second half I was just talking about. Also, maybe explain that you don't need a fancy pedal to sound great. You should be able to play the cheapest guitar and amp and still sound amazing. It's just a suggestion because that's what really stands out when I listen to you playing on your tutorials. Thank you for all the time you put into these, and I love the direction you've taken your channel in guitarist you pick that a lot of others do not. - Matthew (30 yr guitarist with a bachelor's in guitar).

@duanerykhus9425 Год назад

Thank you

@circlemover Год назад

If I may add this opinion, when soloing in a song, have a musical conversation with the feel, melody and lyrics. Keep in mind that a great solo does not usurp the song - there is little point to throwing in a solo when its not needed - but enhances its musical direction as truly demonstrated here. Cool.

@lloydmoss217 9 месяцев назад

@monkeypawism Год назад

Well, that intro bit is damn tastey. Can listen to that always.

@tlister67 Год назад

I have been following a similar approach the last few years. I started more with arpeggios and Caged as a basis. I have been working with triads more recently. Connections take time to build but I feel like I am becoming musical. My hope is that I can eventually do it more naturally so less thinking is involved.

@JunkYour925 Год назад

You can view and play this as E mixolydian. The G#7 is just the exception to the rule. It’s the iii chord in mixo and would typically be a diminished but dom7 is a good substitute, probably why it’s played as dom7 chord. Quickly arrive at this using the box or table of fourths. This abstract diagram overlays directly to the fretboard so it tells you how to play it too. Great progression.

@acpg Год назад

This is true. I think there are multiple ways you could analyse these chords. For me though, it doesn't really have that mixolydian flavour and it sounds a bit odd using that scale over the first couple of chords. Obviously no rules though, and if you like the sound of it then it's good.

@JunkYour925 Год назад

Yeah it definitely doesn’t have a mixo sound that’s for sure. I was just using mixo as a way to label the chords. The best part about playing the changes are there are no rules, like you said. Sometimes I just try to create a pseudo key for a known non key progression because many times the bulk of chords in it are like they are from a key then you just manage the few exceptions. It’s fun to do. This channel is one of the very few best out there. Thanks for all you do.

@ShlomirBareket Год назад

Interesting how chord change playing always seems to end up sounds like Gilmour or Knopfler. Is that because these are pentatonics? With metal does the chord change relate to Lydian scales they use?
