The neapolitan chord for the g minor scale would be Ab major not Eb. Eb is the 6th chord of this scale. First, figure out the second scale degree. In G Minor, this is A. Next, lower it a half step to Ab. Finally, build a major triad. Ab, C, and Eb.
@guitarran: You would be right if the exercise was in the key of G minor. The exercise, however, is in the key of D minor. It just starts on G minor (4th scale degree). He does however, change the key to G minor at the very end by turning the D minor into D7 (V of IV (not V of V)) and ending it on G minor. At least, I'm pretty certain that's how he's approaching this.
@XSDarkMoonZX Honestly I really wasn't paying that close attention. My bad, I normally don't comment so reactively. I did remember him saying something about starting on or with a g minor arp in the 3rd video installment so thats probably why
I was thinking g minor.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention -- peace.
@guitarran: No worries. It's good to know there are people who actually understand music theory and various musical concepts unlike the majority of metal guitar players.
@XSDarkMoonZX Well that explains it then, I'm not a metal player ha ha kidding. I just dig all forms of music, but I favor old school prog...that would be cause I'm an old dude.
okay, it was 50 seconds long but it seemed it was more than 50 minutes! time-warp technique, it was so fast we couldn't even understood it so our mind just slowed it down to process it.
Okay, enough of this shit. He is one of the most perfect guitarists amd musicians. He is more underrated than Rusty Cooley!
Can switching to Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance? Is it possible to ever be as great of a guitar player as Chris Broderick? Oh, well.. okay then...............
@moreiraeladio1 Yea, I can see where the confusion is. The difference is very subtle, it's in the bottom-of-the-8th inning 7th note. If you listen very carefully, you'll get it.
This kind of stuff is ok for a bit, but gets old, much like Yngwies style. Satch and Vai are still way more creative in the song writing and style process. And makes for a much more pleasant listen. Plus they play outside of the box, without any limited walls keeping them in.:D Course that's why they are the two biggest instrumental guitar playing artists of all time.
@jerm26554 Well Chris is a different kind of player, so...you can't really compare him to Vai or Satriani. Have you heard his classical pieces though? I'm sure that's pleasant listening, for me that never gets old. Oh and please tell me that you don't honestly believe that Chris doesn't play 'outside the box'? He's going all over the place man. To each his own I guess.
@chandlerblancaflor Friedman's solos could have been better but he never really upstaged Dave on any of the albums. and Dave's Pretty fuckin good but Marty Could have been better
@0ZAZU i'm not trying to talk shit; Dave is good in his own right, but there's no way he could out-play ANY of the other guitarists in megadeth. If you prefer Dave's solos that's totally ok. nothing wrong with that. but it's pretty well documented that dave's solos are typically sloppy. he's had his moments, and when it's good, it's definitely good. but you have got to be fucking kidding me if you think the other guys couldn't play better. marty is much cleaner than dave. FACT
@chandlerblancaflor you know, on the albums many of Mustaine's solos were faster and well better. I'm not saying Marty's weren't phenomenal, but usually there was more anticipation and excitement for Mustaine's.
@0ZAZU i'll give you that there was often more anticipation and overall excitment for the spots where mustaine would do a solo, but sitll... better? how do you define better? at this point i know it's merely opinion, but i'm sitll curious. for me, Marty's solos were always more tasteful, cleaner, and had much better phrasing. again, it's fine if you prefer dave's solos, but I feel like saying he couldn't upstage dave is unjustly misrepresenting marty's guitar work in megadeth.
@0ZAZU alright, fair enough i suppose. this is where opinions simply differ.... with that said, i still beg to differ... lol. whatever man. that's fine if you think so, but all i can say is if you really dissect what both guitarists are really doing on the instrument, you might find far more in marty's solos.... just saying...
@chandlerblancaflor commecially speaking Dave's were better. Technically speaking Marty's were better. that is what I'm trying to say. sorry if i didnt make that clear.
@0ZAZU it's ok, it's not like you have to apologize. but commercially? i mean, i suppose i can see that. i would say more "traditional" in terms of just straight thrash metal shredding. in that case, yes, sure.... but now that we've completely strayed from the actual topic of this video, i think chris broderick is easily the most technically advanced guitarist megadeth has ever had thus far. i can see why you'd say he upstaged dave in that respect cause he is definitely more intense than marty
I hate how people say they want to quit after watching this sort of stuff!! shouldnt it inspire you?? doesnt it show you that this is what you become if you practice??
@JimmyJimmyJaymz The thing is only about 30% of guitar players actually pick up the skill and get really good. Only 5% of those skilled people become famous. The reason I always say that I might as well quit is because lots of money and many years has to go into it. Brian Haner (Synyster Gates) went to guitar college. Chris Broderick has been studying music history and theory almost his whole life. I have a Korean Stratocaster, an old Marshal amp. I never got lessons.
@pijpok Which is the difference between Eddie and Chris.. EVH doesn't have all this planned out stuff.. it came straight from the heart.. which is the what makes someone unique because your not playing a set pattern that anyone else with a music theory background can play.
@JimmyJimmyJaymz haha exacly ive been playing for a year and a half and im about halfway through this thing and in the off time ive been learning sequoia throne by pth
it really should but people are lazy and generally fail at being funny
@AqworldsInformations No. It's actually a thumb pick. Google it, they're good for those who don't want long nails but give a slightly brighter tone than nails.
it's Chris' own invention he calls a pick slip. basically just a ring that you can slip any regular guitar pick into. he made it so he could do his crazy 4 finger tapping sections without having to dispose of his pick. I want one fo sho.
Dave is so damn lucky to have him. Chris is a perfect kind of guitarist for Megadeth, technical and crazy as hell. Marty was perfect for his time in the band, but these are getting to be the last few years for Dave it's starting to sound like after listening to some interviews lately, and he needs (and far more than deserves) to have a kick ass guitarist like Chris around.
I realized that the second part isn't him explaining about the first part, just my that my mind was buffering and didn't have enough playback becuz of the crazy abuse it took in the first minute
"Hi I'm Chris Broderick. Today I'm going to show you how to shove your guitar up your audience's ass and continue playing as you normally would at home in the comfort of your living or basement perhaps."
just because something looks scary, doesnt mean that its as difficult as you think. stop saying you quit, or being so negative. just practice regardless if it looks out of your skill range, how else are you gonna do it.
jeez now i feel so much more inferior... But DAMN can he play the guitar. I'd love to have half of the talent that he has. I don't care if you don't like him you gotta love his music
technically malmsteen is not as good as chris. i think chris is better, BUT malmsteen was first and he has a smoother picking technique than chris. plus a better tone and (tastes) vibrato, but chris is a true musician and fucking incredible.
@wrstnitmar547 mate I'm useless, I have hands like catchers mits. all my friends are great rock/metal musicians, one is even a very prolific jazz guitarist. it's a bit soul destroying to be honest. everytime I think I'm making some progress I see someone like chris or my friends that make me realise I'm retarded.
due to an abusive relationship I put the guitar down for nearly ten years, I just started playing again.
all I wanna do is just be able to play basic metal/blues rock.
@miserableoldcunt oh dude calm down! dave mustaine is a way worse technical player than chris but he writes astounding songs so keep playing because i'm sure with all this knowledge he has, has no "real" songwriting skill. one of the best players in any genre but hey you can't teach someone how to write a good song. so who cares if he does d minor triad scales faster than kim kardashians sex life? just play and enjoy!
@nihility666 so , say it were a A minor, the dominate 5 would be E?
and flattened 7th scales were only be considered for natural minor then,
right? and so he says dominate E, then E G B and D. or do you mean the dominate chord has a flattened 7th? i know, that part if thats what you meant, but i just never heard the phrase dominate 5. in which i am not sure if you meant the chord has a flattened 7th or the scale does. sorry, if i misunderstood ^^ ~
@bombershard yes thats right the dominate 5 of A minor would be E7
it's common practice to borrow the dominate 5th from the harmonic scale and apply it to natural minor because... well because the dominate 5th defines the key,
E,G,B,D is a minor 7th, what determines a dominate chord is the major 3rd and the minor 7th, the interval between them is a tritone, its what gives the dominate chord its "dominate" sound, makes it stand out so much and has the need to resolve to chord 1

So the neapolitan chord for d minor is certainly Eb maj -- opps.
guitarran 2 months ago
@guitarran the technical term for a neapolitan is a flat major 2 chord, in first inversion. so, basically, In the key of "C", it would be Db major 6.

@wrstnitmar547 mate I'm useless, I have hands like catchers mits. all my friends are great rock/metal musicians, one is even a very prolific jazz guitarist. it's a bit soul destroying to be honest. everytime I think I'm making some progress I see someone like chris or my friends that make me realise I'm retarded.
due to an abusive relationship I put the guitar down for nearly ten years, I just started playing again.
all I wanna do is just be able to play basic metal/blues rock.
I suck.

@miserableoldcunt oh dude calm down! dave mustaine is a way worse technical player than chris but he writes astounding songs so keep playing because i'm sure with all this knowledge he has, has no "real" songwriting skill. one of the best players in any genre but hey you can't teach someone how to write a good song. so who cares if he does d minor triad scales faster than kim kardashians sex life? just play and enjoy!

this is the first time i heard dominant five. what did he mean by that?
bombershard 1 year ago
@bombershard
dominate 5 is the 5th chord of a scale with a dominate or flattened 7th
its one of the most common and important chords
nihility666 1 year ago
@nihility666 so , say it were a A minor, the dominate 5 would be E?
and flattened 7th scales were only be considered for natural minor then,
right? and so he says dominate E, then E G B and D. or do you mean the dominate chord has a flattened 7th? i know, that part if thats what you meant, but i just never heard the phrase dominate 5. in which i am not sure if you meant the chord has a flattened 7th or the scale does. sorry, if i misunderstood ^^ ~
bombershard 1 year ago
@bombershard yes thats right the dominate 5 of A minor would be E7
it's common practice to borrow the dominate 5th from the harmonic scale and apply it to natural minor because... well because the dominate 5th defines the key,
E,G,B,D is a minor 7th, what determines a dominate chord is the major 3rd and the minor 7th, the interval between them is a tritone, its what gives the dominate chord its "dominate" sound, makes it stand out so much and has the need to resolve to chord 1
nihility666 1 year ago
@nihility666 whoops, yeah E, G#, B, D.
but in natural minor, the seventh is flat, and in the harmonic,
7 is not, just the 3rd and 6th no?
bombershard 1 year ago
@bombershard
yes thats correct but we're talking about the 5th degree of the scale not the 1st
the major7th of the harmonic minor is the major3rd of the 5th degree of the scale or phrygian dominate scale
you'll notice to 5th degree of the natural minor is a minor7th chord where as the 5th degree of the harmonic minor is a dominate7th

@nihility666 thanks for trying to fill me in but my knowledge of theory is
not as great as yours. i'll write down what you said on paper, with the scales
to try and understand it better. thanks ^^

Keep that damn camera in focus! I thought my eyes were getting fucked up trying to keep up with Chris' hands... haha
I think GW just unfocussed the camera so they can keep this stuff a secret.
