Advanced 2nd Stairway to Heaven Chord?
Thanks for the insight 🤟 That's why I initially thought of it as a G# aug (#9) chord at first, as I wasn't even concentrating on the overall progression & context - more like - what would I name this one chord given the intervals. It makes sense as to treat it as Augmented for a solo too. Haha...- Chris Johnston

Advanced 2nd Stairway to Heaven Chord?
It definitely is! Yeah good point actually 🤟 It's like a rootless Aminmaj9 voicing. I think it's all to do with the context of it for sure.- Chris Johnston

Advanced 2nd Stairway to Heaven Chord?
And weirdly as soon as I say that and start playing it, Aminmaj9 sounds right too 🤔 I think this is where the issue in the video arises 😂- Chris Johnston

Advanced 2nd Stairway to Heaven Chord?
Tbh that's where my ear lead me straight away. Like the way if you play an Am & E chord over the melody it still works. I just had trouble actually naming it from there, because of the B - Like Eaug/G# (natural 5) ? 😂 That's kinda where I thought that I could have the G# aug #9, I mean it...- Chris Johnston

Interesting man, that makes sense. The conclusion I came to was a G# Augmented #9 🤟- Chris Johnston

Advanced 2nd Stairway to Heaven Chord?
I just came across this video and I'm curious to know how those on here would name the 2nd chord in Stairway? I know what my answer is and it wasn't Rick Beato or Adam Neely's conclusion :LOL: @Syn Gates, @Brian Haner Sr. Any thoughts?- Chris Johnston

How to get avenged sevenfolds tone?
The way I get an Avenged esque distortion tone from my Line 6 HX Effects is a Heavy Metal Distortion coupled with a Compressor with a medium to high sensitivity. The compressor seems a must for the high attack sound of Syn's lead playing 🤟- Chris Johnston

This has been bothering me
It's tough to keep your cool when you hear stuff like that, but the way I see it, if people want to think that about the Beatles, it doesn't change the reality that they're not what they're being described to be 👌 There's a great saying for these situations: 'Never assume malevolence where...- Chris Johnston

A metronome is a solid way to get your timing & rhythm down for sure. If the click gets too tedious though, there are Drum tracks on youtube that work great. Search '4/4 drum beat' & some should show up. You also can't beat jamming along to a track to build your groove too 👌- Chris Johnston

This has been bothering me
It's funny how this happens with Music fans sometimes. It's absolutely okay not to like what's popular, just like it's okay to have the opposite opinion, or to be indifferent. Music is something to be enjoyed subjectively as an art form - but I think because people relate to closely &...- Chris Johnston

Some Life Advice - Be Proud Of Yourself
Yeah that's totally it. I've had the exact same thing happen way too many times. It's like you don't want the feeling to end so you don't know when enough is enough. It's almost disguised as fun, but I know it's a crutch to cope with stuff. I think I have a good idea of what it is I'm trying to...- Chris Johnston

Some Life Advice - Be Proud Of Yourself
It's so weird that you posted this, as I've been noticing a lot that I have become pretty dependant on Alcohol since the beginning of lockdown - I used to work every weekend as a DJ & I got to watch everyone enjoy themselves & get drunk when I missed friends birthdays. Weddings, New Year etc...- Chris Johnston

Guitar intonation
Ah Gotcha, usually with high action above the 12th you can get intonation issues because of that - I've had a few students with Guitar's not set up quite right and they've had that issue 🤔 Best bet is finding a good luthier to give the instrument a look over and sort the issues, it might even...- Chris Johnston
