This was super helpful. Been playing 30 years but never things like triads or inversions. Got asked to play electric for the first time in years to do swells and ambient chords and this was essential to me.
Just wonderful, been searching for "how to play the chords on guitar" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Fanwen Ziyaria System - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my m8 got great results with it.
I just started playing at our church, in a year i aspire to be able to play more rounded and help the team build a certain sound. With your videos i believe i can get there. Be blessed brother!
Thanks Israel, glad you're enjoying the lessons. As long as you show up and put in some work you'll be just fine! If you have any specific questions, just reach out anytime. Also check the site, www.worshipguitarskills.com for more lessons.
Finally! A channel which explains it for noobs like myself...Thank you so much! All the other videos I've watched make me feel like I'm coming to class after missing a month and am completely out of sync...
I have paid two different website to learn how to play worship songs, but this was not covered. Nigel Hendroff said he used chord inversions, but this is the first time someone explained it so clearly. Many, many thanks.
Hey @Joshua Allen, I'm so glad this helped you ! We are currently doing a free 5 Day Practice Plan Challenge if you might be interested to join! academy.worshipguitarskills.com/perfect-practice-plan-challenge-signup
I noticed that you stayed away from the low E string. Is that because the lower notes don't sound as clear and ethereal? Just wondered. Thanks for this excellent video, going well beyond the typical "cowboy chord" approach.
Good observation, I do use it sometimes, but generally this type of tone has a lot of low end which overpowers the overall mix of this. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the comment!
@messenger ministries It is true that that Hebrew word's definition contains nothing about music. But we must submit to the Scripture when it shows us that singing and playing musical instruments is one of the ways that we are meant to EXPRESS the thanksgiving and praise that ought to be present in our hearts, EG the Levites who were appointed to sing and play instruments to worship the Lord, and in New Testament, speaking to one another in hymns and psalms and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord, giving thanks always...you may feel that music is not necessary to worship the Lord...but to pass a conclusion that those who use music to do so know nothing about worshipping our Lord, and are committed to following the doctrines and commandments of men, and that their worship is vain...is a very serious charge against brethren before the Lord's observation. The Lord who purchased them with his own blood and declared them righteous.
this is actually awesome. but. I wish the graphic guitar that is illustrating the finger positions, and the guitarists actual fretboard coincided. Having one inverted when the other is actual is a bit weird, trying to figure things out. Thanks for your work!
Thanks for the awesome lesson. You are a great teacher and I've already signed up as a member in your academy. God bless you and keep up the good work,
Good day, I have watching a few videos on how build ambient sounds, there are some good videos, but they take forever to get to the point and it's not always helpful in understanding all the words such as WOW and Flutter, as well as how to create great pedal setup
@messenger ministries 1st, The scripture references I gave are exactly in accordance with the statement u made 'worship has nothing to do with instruments...' . 2nd this verse: "...WAS PREPARED in the day that thou wast created". Anything musical Lucifer had, be it skills, instruments, sounds or any other 'WORKMANSHIP', they were PREPARED for him. Nothing was originally from him but prepared and given to him. The claim u made about 'ambience' being from hell is totally groundless let alone biblical. Half of ur reply is composed of verses, but ur claims and conclusions aren't based in any. Jesus taught that true worship is in truth & in spirit. That is the only criteria Jesus mentioned. Using the best instruments and sounds we have for worship music is good. As they did in the days of David. Finally I do agree that Lucifer still has his music abilities and still does what he's always done, decieve. But make sure to not make groundless claims on church worships and their sounds since any musical ability Lucifer has was first PREPARED by God. Ur giving credit to the wrong artist.
Nice sound.Im not a practising Christian but some of the worship stuff I’ve listened to on yt is very ethereal and musical.Check Allan Holdsworth chordal work out.He really takes it to the next level
these inversions are GREAT help ! I have been looking for a straight forward great teaching on this and its great ! thank you so much. For the ambient sounds what effects are in play with your pedals? Are you using a volume pedal ? if so I am looking for one to help create that ambient swell sound- any recommendations any one ?
Thank you! I used a Kemper Profiler for all these videos. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I8a-vOzoiuM.html Yes I did use a volume pedal in these videos and the whole ambient tone came from the Kemper.
You can definitely strum them, you'll just need to have your string muting to be on point. I do a breakdown on String Muting in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DlYHKekGKBw.html
C major chord triad is C E G. But first inversion is E G C Or E C G?? We understand that E as lowest note is important. But what about the the accordance of C G /G C?? We have to take the CG /GC seriously!! If we maintain the serials like 1,3,5 Thn 3,5,1 etc Thn chords of ist, 2nd inversions may not be right.
About your tone: you don't have any attack. How did you achieve this? What pedal what settings? I know one way is pog2 which has attack control. Maybe not the only one.
I'm using an ambient setting on my Kemper which is a combination of Reverb and Delay. I've been getting a lot of questions regarding that tone so I will film a video soon. Subscribe to the channel if you're not already, then you'll get a notification when we release it in the next 3-4 weeks.
Hi there, great video. When I’m picking the chords you can hear the plucking sound but when you play it sounds really smooth and you can’t hear your fingers picking the notes. Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks for the feedback, our focus here for the most part though is to help praise & worship guitarists, even though the ideas will apply to other styles as well.
You definitely don't need the expensive gear. It's better to be able to use what you've got well. When you know and understand the fundamentals of tone and guitar playing techniques, you can get a decent tone out any gear.
