Between The Licks - Guitar Lesson - Building Slow Blues Lick

[yjmsrv]

The "G" chord is not as you say the i or eye (I)chord. That i is a roman numeral for number one. It's a I IV V, just as the next chords are not the "eye vee" or "Vee" chord but the four and five. Just so you are referring to them properly. Roman numerals, One, Four, Five ( I, IV, V).

a third to 7th and wtf? don't understand sh*t of this.. can't you just teach with like... that fret on that string? really like the licks btw..

[markscs]

What's your favorite lick over mashed potatoes and gravy, or say.... chicken wings? Just curious.

[BrickFrigid]

sweet licks!

[chopperwolf13]

Cool, lesson, but would have loved to hear a back track to get the full effect. Any chance you might do that?

[ubernate860]

"real tastey" "little more flavor" you shouldnt' make lessons on an empty stomach, it makes you sound really cheesy

[brownbigb]

i look at your site. it's the 1 chord, not the i chord. you don't call the c an ayvee chord do you?

[brownbigb]

you gotta get your terminology right. the i chord, and calling the 4, going to the seven. no wonder people are confused. your mixing terminolgy. and 3rd of the seven? hmmm...

[downfall23]

anyone whos takin 5 minutes of theory knows that he means the tonic when he says i chord. If that confuses you then this whole video is probly beyond you because you obviously know nothing about chord progression. roman numeral i=1=tonic it's not that hard. Btw thanks for the lesson OP, and sick strat btw.

[brownbigb]

i was commentng about the stuff on the website, and he's mixing terminology.

its roman numeral I, not i. i is not a roman numeral.

[brownbigb]

btw, the site is pretty good, and he did change the terminology to the correct one :)

[eliteslayer66]

[adfaerfadva]

dude another awesome lesson

[hedfelt]

Great web page you got there:) Informative with very good instructions!

[PatrickSebastian]

No, you don't change scale. Unless the key changes..

[AfterMidnightRider]

If I'm playing in G, do I keep playing the G pentatonic or do I change the scale for each new cord?

[AfterMidnightRider]

By the way great lessons.

[betweenthelicks]

Traditionally the G blues scale is played non-stop throughout a G blues progression. I like to throw in the 3rd and 7th of the chords in addition to the blues scale as the chords change.

[AfterMidnightRider]

Cool, I will have to work on this. Just to make sure that I'm correct. Is 3rd and 7th of a G cord a B note and a C sharp? I got this by counting up the G major scale.

[betweenthelicks]

Well, I should have said b7th (the 7th from the common 7th chord like G7 or D7). The third of a G7 is in fact a B but the b7th is in fact an F.

I think you meant to say B and F# which is the 3rd and major 7th. The major 7th does not fit the common G7 chord used in blues.

Boy, does it sound confusing. Just check out the website and sign up at the forums if you want better instructions.

[bemidjistatechialpha]

@AfterMidnightRider you also can change the scale for each chord that is your bass note. it is more advanced to do but you have alot more notes to use. you must land on the next scale for the next chord though.

[DukeDe]

You're a great presenter. You do an excellent job of explaining things.

[betweenthelicks]

Thanks, I appreciate that. I'd appreciate it if I could get some life in my forums at the site. That'd be awesome. ;-)

[dyziac]

oo nice lol.. can i ask why you took the emblem off if its from a reissue?

[betweenthelicks]

Its a Mexi 50s reissue neck, I don't think there is an emblem.

[dyziac]

is that a warmoth :O ? :)

[betweenthelicks]

Its a Mighty Mite solid ash body that I painted myself. The neck is from a 50s reissue strat. The neck P/U is a Seymour Duncan jazz and the neck is a JB.

[SBGuitars]

Great tips - sometimes helps to see someone demonstrating such things as I personally find it can be easy to stick to one thing and get good at it but not have a lot of variety.

[aaaaa8]

is that andy samberg?
