So I found this jam of Syn and papa gates on youtube and I kinda get a bit confused what he’s doing when he starts playing chords. Can somebody explain it to me?
Like after Syn stops soloing he does some chord stuff which I don’t really know because the first sounds like pretty straight forward E to a atuff but Syn isn’t really doing straight forward E to a stuff. It seems like he’s doing extensions and it is confusing me a bit tbh I am bad with writing words so if you still don’t really understand what I mean just say so
I see what you mean now. I haven’t a clue either actually looks like some caged chords maybe? Using the C shape. Also looks like some wierd jazz chords as well. Hard to tell really from that angle
The changes are Em to Am. He is playing lots of simple substitutions. Over the Em, he is playing Em7, Esus2, Em9, Em11, and also using some open string variations to make it sound a bit more ethereal. Same over the Am; m7, m9, m11 with some open strings to spread it out a bit.
