Nice solo but only 4 notes??? No. In that solo you used the Root.......Flat 7th.......Minor 3rd.....Major 3rd........Perfect 4th...........Perfect 5th and Flattened 5th.
That's 7 notes you played. Not 4. ;-)
It's a bit misleading to tell people you are only using 4 notes when you are infact using a combination of Major and Minor Pentatonic Scales and the Blues Scale!!!!!
Maybe you meant that you are playing just around that 4 note box shape but you are clearly playing more than 4 notes. :-)
Excellent in that you're showing playing with feeling and emotion means more than anything. I studied music in college and learned to play blues using only 5 notes on a piano. Same principle you're using here.
@cracks21229 Well the best way I can answer your question is... maybe. The bass line is what's really defining the key signature in this song. There's a lot of chromatic notes in the bass. By chromatic I mean notes played one fret after the other, which can mask notes that normally wouldn't be in a key signature. In terms of just the key of D, the answer is no. For the D major scale in place of a C (which in this case is in the 8th fret,) there's a C# (on the 9th fret). Hope this helps!
excelent dude! You're showing that you don't need to play lots of notes, a good guitarist, and at the end a good musician, must be original and must do what he feels... that's what it's all about..
@chewymcbaca - absolutely. I taught the same thing to my son on his bass and he's now soloing in the middle school jazz band with it. You can do it on any instrument and it almost always works... even outside of blues (thought it will probably always sound bluesy.)
This is a cool video with the exception that G & C are not in the key of A major, which is what I assumed he meant. Nor could they be considered blues notes because there's no type of dissonance when he lands on them. A minor scale is probably what he meant, it just through me off a bit. Nice chops sir, simple but fantastic!
@Fretslayed If you're talking about the microtonal bend, then I would say that it doesn't count as a "note" because it's between C and C#. If you meant the full step bend, then he's already fretting that D, because it's the one he's bending up to E from. Either way, I wouldn't say that it is six notes because he isn't really hitting that flat fifth.
@srvgravesdime It's not microtonal, He hits the C#, that's why it has that major feeling to it when he bends, because the C# is the major 3rd in the key of A. Not to mention the four frets he play on are the notes A, G, C, and D. He bends the D to an E, the perfect fifth of the key of A. He technically plays six notes. That's not the point of the video though. A guitar beginner will get confused between technicalities like this, so the video is good for what it is, explaining it simply.
@MrWhirt My bad. I said flat fifth when I meant major fourth. And yeah, he does bend up to C# once, so my bad. But he does a lot of microtonal bends too though.
Several notes were actually played via the bend. I think it should not be titled "four notes" but maybe "four frets" or something. bending a "D" note makes an "E" note, etc...
When I was young I played the B-flat Clarinet from the 4th grade through High School. 98% of the time I was 1st Chair in class.
I discovered it wasn't how fast I could play but the secret to great music is in the [timbre]: the quality of a musical tone that distinguishes voices and instruments.
By using this theory I went on to receive a college scholarship & went on to complete my Masters in Music.
It ALL in the tone ;) If it doesn't sound good it's NOT good music.
Good lesson for beginners who want to start improvising. Forget scales -- learn a few moveable patterns (and their roots) & you can hang at any blues jam.
@r0ckdup You're right that the title isn't quite accurate, but neither is "four fret". He only uses two frets, eighth and tenth. That's it. Two frets times two strings = four notes, plus a bend giving a total of five, which is exactly what he says at the beginning of the lesson.
Where is evas comment. Shoot. I wanted to rip him. Nice solo. Awesome for beginners but I am "sure" you know. Thanks. More!!!!!!!!! Do a 5 and then a 3. Milk it bro!!!!
well some like to work,and maybe you could use a little better outlook,i thimk its a great video,but it is five notes and sliding to the twelvth fret instead of the bend would put you right in the great position to work down into another group of short great licks,but it is very well done,give us more
I clicked on this vid so I could get a good laugh out of the "4 Note Solo". Who'd a thunk it possible.......but it IS!! I'm a believer! Well done, sir.
If some of you asshole where so great you would be in a studio recording the next big platinum album instead of posting criticizing comments on you tube
This is a lesson. Beginner, intermediate, advanced, WHATEVER! I have this guy's lesson DVD series and I really enjoy how the Blues is broke down so simply, and then built on. This is the first chance I've had to comment , but....
I don't know what all the gripe is about cause people wanna pick apart this guys video. If you wanna be so smart, reply with a blues guitar lesson video!? Maybe? Anyways, I like this bluesguys example. It gives me a whole hell of a lot of licks at that extended position, instead of just bending pull off hammer on to the root. I appreciate the lesson. After all, it is just that... a lesson. Peace, rockstar armchair blues quarterbacks.
The trick is all the bends and vibratos. He's clearly playing pentatonic, which we probably all knew the scale. If you watch his strings bend, you can see the artistry. You have to be a very accomplished blues player to take this 4-note set of licks and make a good sounding solo out of it. A lot of blues playing looks very 1-2-3, but rythm, bends, and vibratos make it sound sweet.
i love the vibrational sound of blues you gave off, i have a beautiful guitar i can't play well (yet) and i love that you can make so much off of just two cords :]]]
Now I've seen! It's not the scales. I studied them and played them until I shook the awkwardness out of them. But that doesn't count until you learn PHRASING!!!!!!! And then you don't need so many notes!
thanks for the video. i count 4 notes. no E was played. you have to over look kids wanting attention. this is also used in an A minor scale. so eva isn't as impressive as she'd like to be. & if anybody that knew anything about guitars watched this..... they'd have 1 main comment to make. that's a very nice guitar. & thanks for not having blaring distortion to cover up your mistakes like most do on here. anybody can make noise. then you have people that can play.
@snipeface123xyz No it doesn't... it sounds like hes saying "Ick... something away from this" or if you press it fast it sounds like "Ick, ick, ick, ick"

This is an excellent instruction video. One of the best things you can do is listen and collect as many "phrases", change them up and connect them to come up with your own as this guy shows.

crybabys and nittpickers 4, 5 or 6 "notes". makes no matter. .its a lot of epic awesomeness packed into that 4 'finger position' pattern. this rocks! gives me allot of ideas already. i can add this simple pattern to the top of a pattern i play in the key of A @ the 5th fret position and expand my territory. this little gem will serve to take me towards the next level of understanding the organization of the fretboard! thank you good sir for an excellent post !!! thanks for sharing!!!
@yiannilol It's called 4 note solo.And a 4 note pattern would consist of 4 notes not 6. But i was wrong he plays a C# too @ 1:50 so 6 notes. But hey we're human, it's okay we all make mistakes, we aren't robots,. and that's the nature of our beauty. Still what really matter here is his beautiful phrasing, creative intelligence, and pure sound. Keep up the good playing man.
I was skeptical, but this was really good.

Good lesson, but quit with the sex-face looking into the camera. Creepin me out.

Including two step bends kind of eliminates your "four note" concept. but it's still a good lesson.

that was 5 notes... he plays E a shit load along with the A, G, C, D which is a C Major Pentatonic scale.

@Eva413 He said 4 note pattern, not 4 notes.
yiannilol 9 months ago
@yiannilol It's called 4 note solo.And a 4 note pattern would consist of 4 notes not 6. But i was wrong he plays a C# too @ 1:50 so 6 notes. But hey we're human, it's okay we all make mistakes, we aren't robots,. and that's the nature of our beauty. Still what really matter here is his beautiful phrasing, creative intelligence, and pure sound. Keep up the good playing man.

@Eva413
...A minor pentatonic.

@Eva413
While it's the same notes, it's really A minor pentatonic, because he's playing over a backing track in A...with the major third in there once...
But yeah. Pentatonic.
