if i buy an acoustic guitar what kind of strings would i need to buy and what tuning would i tune it to ...to sound like his guitar or flamcenco/spanish sound
@petrucci619 Nylon strings, AKA Classical guitar strings or Flamenco Strings. But keep in mind that an "acoustic guitar" built for steel strings is very diferent than a Spanish guitar. Nothing bad will happen to it if you use nylon strings on an acoustic. In fact there are some nylon strings made for Ac gtrs. Usually they're called "Folk nylon" and have ball ends.
God, I LOVE the Phyrgian scale! How great does it sound when he plays the first 3 notes of that scale in the form of a Spanish triplet! On another note why is there an almost 5 minutes long gap at the end of this video?
@ukuleleacole We, the Spanish speakers, do care about it. Also, he's trying to teach something but it's up to you if you take it or leave it. Anyway, the one that would sound ridiculous saying "Malahueña" won't be Marcelo...
@Simmen12 LOL yes, you're right. I thought you meant if the gtr was connected from the pick up to a pre amp. I have no idea.......I It's the board they have in the concert hall at MI.
@mrguitarmarcelo Thanks for this great lesson Marcelo, I enjoyed it! One question, I notice that your thumb, when improvising with the scale at a slower scale, you execute all rest strokes, but towards the end of the video, when the tempo has increased, I see you are no longer using rest strokes with your thumb, just free strokes.. so does the tempo dictate what stroke to use? Thanks!
@MilanPolak given the key. The Phrygian Mode 1st position played in the key of E has no sharps or flats. It is all the same notes as C major as he said.
@MilanPolak i get your point milan :p... i guess he probably refers to the E phrygian wich contains only natural notes...lets not make the guy looks bad...he's a good player :p
cool for you to take time to comment this stuff :)
