Harmonizing Guitar Melody Lines

[jowe182]

thats the same as my guitar. cool

[tdcanam1]

Not to diminish these major contributions wich seem to be scaled up to sharpen minor guitar players flat compositions, and I dont mean to come across as an overly dominant voice, shooting cadence from an atonal canon, buttake a moment and let this register. My motif is pure, you can start the night with a lime & tonic, and end it with a tonic, but it doesnt make the night any better .... De Capo, have fun with your Etude

PS - play by ear, this stuff is learned by wandering the fretboard.

[S1ay3R007]

say what???

[Puertorico2494]

The intro sounds very Avenged Sevenfold......nnniiccee :)

[cmc47834]

@Puertorico2494 Not at all lol.

[Puertorico2494]

@cmc47834 I meant Like when Zacky and Synyster Harmonaize.....Geez >.>

[cmc47834]

@Puertorico2494 I know, but I'd agree it would sound like Avenged Sevenfold if he did the riff in a different key like in D, thats what most of their songs are in

[Puertorico2494]

@cmc47834 Well yeah I guess you're right he would sound more like A7X if he would've played the riff in D but I still think it sounds like them.But yeah you're right.

What is that cool looking gadget thing behind your bridge? lol

[sweetsweepbeat]

Hey Andrew! Very sweet lesson for people who have no idea about harmonization!

Anyways I got a question for you. I do alot of harmonizing in my videos and keep getting comments that ask me how to harmonize. Would you mind if I send em straight to this video so I don't have to explain to them. I find this video really easy to understand for begginers. Again great lesson!

[creativeguitarstudio]

@sweetsweepbeat,

Yes, by all means link this video... It's 100% public.

And, thanks a million for the kind words.

All the best,

nice video.... learn something today...thanks...

[actionsauce5]

Thanks Andrew!

[MrPeggyo]

Thank you Andrew

Someone commented that you dont look like a guitar player

Simply stated, music is not looked at

Your a great player and instructor

[BdoubleH]

I am sure that you know your stuff, Andrew, but with all due respect, it is misleading to tell your students that: "a minor third interval goes a whole step apart between two adjacent strings and a major third interval goes a semi-tone apart between two adjacent strings". I am assuming that you know that a semi-tone is the distance of one fret ONLY IF you stay on the same string and a whole step is two frets ONLY IF you stay on the same string.(!) I'm just sayin'.

[GuitarHickNick]

Hey andrew, nice video, whats your review of that rail pickup in the bridge position?thanks.

[aspensubi28]

your not telling me anything

[darkprinze329]

thank you this really helped

[aug5ya]

best of the best!!!

I like

[Cloc817]

Very informative and helpful. Thanks a lot!

[andy92811]

didn't really understand. how can I harmonize a melody in the key of g?

[stereoscopicify]

do you apply the same tonic, sub dom, and dom theory has with the chords.

[jspdesigns]

good info. thanks

[conkerzzz]

Mm, I love how he ends it, leading tone to tonic and the harmony in the bg just keeps going on at 0:46, pretty nice.

[Leonard5555]

i would have started out with the major scale, intervals, and then showed the patterns.

like u said know ur scales. if you know your scale its pretty easy to find the right harmonizing note

[rocker4rocker1]

thanks broha realy helped me understand alot better keep it shredin man

[HarDAllillA]

there is something i dont understand plz help . isn't it true that the major third of B is Eflat ? if the B note is on 9th fret 4th string the majthird is going to be 8thfret 3rd string ! but you showed the 6th fret 3rd string , I'm learning this material so i'm not getting it at the begining ... thx

[BdoubleH]

@HarDAllillA : it was the 7th fret on the 3rd string, and that is because he was showing a minor third from B, not a major third. Cheers!

[ibanez666guitarist]

Is there anywhere to get the tabs for the part played in the start ?

[Onuund]

Just watch it. Its pretty clear.

[creativeguitarstudio]

Link is in the sidebar, under (more info).

[mrzelda8]

@ibanez666guitarist its not very hard to fguer out...... + you even have avid to see him do it! how easy is that!

[Ibik]

good video, does anyone know where i can contact him for questions?

[magyar494]

this is not right. harmonizing is determined with chord tones, not patterns on the guitar neck.

[flyingv666]

That was insanely helpful, the powertab makes it even easier to understand! Thanks man

[dmonks40]

caged system is the most ingenious for guitar

[Alucard33592]

o.o awsome vid....im gonna try to harmonize an ubber fast melody in thirds and then in fifths mwahahah itll sound like shredding with chords

[mr252307]

When you said, you should know scales.... Did you mean all the scales in all positions?

[creativeguitarstudio]

Hello: "mr252307,"

The patterns covered in my last video:

"How to Practice Scales"

There is a handout of everything you'll need

to know - link in the side-bar on that one.

Hope this helps,

Andrew

[mr252307]

[eros14521]

This is awesome! And you're expanding to Power tab now? You're awesome :D

[codyclarke]

I always remember the minor 3rd from Television's Marquee Moon hammering it into my head!

[joesimmons90]

I remember the minor 3rd from the first two notes of the melody of Centerfold by J. Geils Band.

[col33145]
