    Soloing Over Chords

    I know that we got into it during the second half of the CAGED system series in the beginner levels, and I know that we also talk about Landing Tones and Color Tones during Papa Gates' blues master class but I'm still struggling a lot with getting lines and phrases going to create interesting...

    That time when I held a Presentation about A7X in school

    I did the same except my presentation was on a Creative Person and I chose Synyster Gates. So I had to get all the mannerisms from watching videos and even had to dress like him (I don't pictures unfortunately) which was a fun presentation. I had people write song lyrics for the presentation...

    Improv challenge?

    I'm a bit late to this gathering but a great song to improv over is Black Magic Woman covered by Santana. It's a minor blues with a latin vibe added so it's pretty easy to get some good ideas flowing from it. I think it's in Dm as well.

    Proper Introduction

    I've posted probably one or two things on the forums and commented on a few other things. But I don't think I've done an actual introduction. Soooooo yeah. Hi. I'm Gabriel but I go by Gabe most of the time. I'm the only guitar major at Westminster College SLC. And I'm okay? I'm not really the...

    Major Chord Progressions

    A lot of times I find that I don't really know what to write when it comes to music especially since I didn't really know how chords worked. But I did Music Theory II this last semester and got some help and I want to share this with people who might not know it. I think this is beginner theory...

    Let's Take It To The Next Level 🎸🎶

    I really enjoy this idea, I'm thinking of doing a stream soon of me performing a few songs from my Jazz Ensemble concert because 1. it was really fun and due to a whole semester of playing I want to play the songs more 2. because I want to share more music with some great music buds

    Ibanez Roadstar II

    Thank you Ed! This helps a ton, and i’ll give it some time before I decide to look for a replacement bridge of some sort. I’m gonna give this bridge another shot.

    Ibanez Roadstar II

    I have an Ibanez Roadstar II with a faulty bridge. I’ve done some measurements to see if maybe I can find a replacement. It was given to me by a friend who never really gave the guitar love because he never really liked Floyd Rose bridges (even though this isn’t one) and so everything just has...

    Guitar Upgrades

    If you look at my profile picture you'll see a JS-22 Jackson Dinky. This is my primary guitar. I have Seymour Duncan Invaders and Mad Hatter Guitar Products Terminator SVST-IBZ electronics inside. I'm looking to buy a bridge replacement and some locking tuners. The bridge is a two point fulcrum...

    What got you into guitar?

    I got into guitar mostly because my family wanted me to get into something to motivate me to do better in school. Now they have a college student who is going to school for Music Studies with an Emphasis in guitar. I really thank Avenged Sevenfold, Breaking Benjamin, and Green Day. They were...

    The Minor 6 Arpeggio - Lesson 109

    These advanced arpeggio lessons have been helping me a ton in the jazz ensemble I'm in. Really gives me my own voice as well as giving some of the music we're playing a lot more spice. And for my Jazz jury I'm doing All of Me and that's really coming along nicely. Thank you!

    New School Launches!

    I'm finding this very easy to maneuver through. I love this layout a ton

    Arpeggios

    Hi, I'm getting used to the new layout (which I think is fantastic) and I can't seem to find where the advanced arpeggios are. I'm still learning my dominant 7 and minor 6 arpeggios and can't seem to find the lessons for them. Thank you! Gabe
