Guitar Tutorial: Improvise A Minor/Harmonic/Phrygian Classical Piece

[im4umyfriend]

you said go to the finger picking lesson but that youtube link says this video has been removed... so plzz upload a new one and help this poor guy....

[LickNRiff]

@im4umyfriend Oh, you're right. Sorry about that. I fixed the link. :)

Thanks! Great lesson!

If you can give any improv ideas for a Tango Flamenco (base is: Bb- A in 4/4). I just have a few years of practice and would like to know how to move my solo around these basic notes. How to link everything or any siuggestions...

Many thanks!

@Clicephas I am planning on doing a Spanish Scale lesson soon, so I think that will help. It'll be too confusing to explain it here in words, but just try to use both arpeggio notes of the Bb and the A chord and build the scale around them. Hope this helps in the meanwhile until I do the lesson. :)

@LickNRiff

It does help! Can't wait for the lesson... Much appreciated!

is this standard tuning? I'm not using a classical guitar im using electric. But I use the phrygian scale so I'd like to learn what you do in this lesson.

[LickNRiff]

@twilightkinko Yep. Standard tuning. And this works just as well on electric guitar. It's just the principles of the scales and the improvisation tips. Although, you'll have to adjust if you want to solo instead of finger-pick.

@ERPPP Told ya :)

[LickNRiff]

@ERPPP Yup, you will have three semi-tones in a row. But that doesn't mean you have to PLAY them in a row... They're just there. You can use either one and then use the others to make variations on the melody you're improvising. Actually, with the major tone and the tritone that's 7 semitones in a row you can use. :) That's why I say depend on your ear and not on the notes themselves.

Awesome lesson dude!

[LickNRiff]

@TheAsianguitardude Thanks! Can't wait to hear what you improvise with it

[TheAsianguitardude]

@LickNRiff I play the electric guitar, and after watching your video, it really DID help me incorporate that classical sound into my electric guitar playing, and it really sounds awesome, so thanks for the lesson!

[LickNRiff]

@TheAsianguitardude Great! I'm so glad to hear this.
