Jeff Richmond: Soloing Through Changes: Chord Tones

[MarkusFunk]

Brilliant! Now we're getting down to the essence of what the phrase "making the changes" really means and how to do it. Thanks for posting!

[DENSAYO]

no 7th on the triads???

[bassme1959]

everybody alway's says nice guitar! that means you ain't listening ?

Your here to listen and learn not look @ awe! He's showing some powerful

info on guidetones I think just blew by wow! I luv you guy's anyway.

[diabeticmonkey]

That progression sounds fantastic.

[mrbulletsforme]

@diabeticmonkey its a jazz standard if im not mistaken.. fly me to the moon :)

[robjazztorres]

@mrbulletsforme nope, it's all the things you are.

[MrSvjoe]

Great lesson! :D

[lifemusicandnature]

that was quite helpful! thank a lot!

[robineellar]

can i use this over major chords? thanks

[Demoras]

@robineellar Of course. He played over major chords in this video.

[danworldemperor]

Hi, these two videos about soloing have really helped me, plus I love your guitar!

[nenad1974]

Beautiful Sadowsky guitar !

[joeylodes]

4:21 ... thats the beauty of music ... right there! I always told my students its not really what notes you're playing but HOW you're playing it.

That progression could be jazz, classical, Deep Purple turned it into rock, Gary Moore turns it into blues, hell Yngwie and Vinny Moore can even rip arpeggios all over it in their neo-classic style ... but it's still just the same progression. and thats why music is AMAZING ... its HOW you play the notes that separate the styles. great lesson!!!

[jazzpman]

that's the first 8 bars of All the things You Are

[luisthrash]

that string gauge seems to be very fat! does anyone know the gauge?

[nirson123]

that guitar sounds amazing

[Mvision123]

Doe anyone know a descent site to get backing tracks of the quality used in this video?

[Cache069]

@Mvision123 download band in a box program and create them yourself all you have to do is select the style and enter the chords....

[Mvision123]

@Cache069

nice, checking it out, thanks!

[Hoish999]

@Mvision123 sorry i can't help with a website, but i would hazard a guess that he's using a computer programme called 'band in a box'. i have it and it is VERY useful and easy to use. (sorry if you already knew this).

[dus65]

awesomeness.

[ibanezbloke]

It would be great if rock guitarists just went and learned how to do this!

[bigtophalloween]

@ibanezbloke You're kidding, right? They're called arpeggios. Very common in rock. Listen to a Satriani or Vai record and you're pretty much there.

[ibanezbloke]

THank you for that! Rock guitarits only ever really sweep or do those Malmsteen-style 2 string arpeggios, they don't do it like this, using scale tones and chromatic passing notes in the space of less than an octave!

[asaskald]

@bigtophalloween Also Malmsteen! A great one to check out is the song Fire and Ice. The solo is almost purely arpeggios. And who could forget Arpeggios From Hell?

[vileguile]

Thank you Jeff and Guitarworld for this!

[RICKYFALL]

Damm that's a beautiful guitar!!!!!!!

[geeksterz]

hes using a penny as a pick hahaha XD

[dieandgoaway]

haha its true he is using a penny at 1:57

[evh5150316]

What do you think Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top commonly used?

He'd often used a dime or a penny as a pick.

[notuern]

Thats some freaking phat strings! o,0

[freddie2199]

Great, great lesson for someone trying to figure out jazz guitar.

[AndersonGuitar]

That is a Roger Sadowsky Semi Acoustic guitar.

one of the finest on the planet. =D

[carloschulo]

the guitar looks like a cello

[bitchslapper12]

Repost?

[xdivinebladex]

nope, just a segway into this one

[12caanis]

That is a BEAUtiful Guitar!!!!!!

[JSLLH]

very nice ! i like the way you etch out the simplicity of the harmony by highlighting the moving voice within the chord ! it is a sensible way to try to demystifiy certain aspects of this style of music named jazz ! thanks for the great video from this great guitar teacher !

[jpmna01]

what guitar is that?

btw, cool lesson ;)

[abysslord16]

one of the best lessons, good explanatory of whats going on, keep this guy, plus his rig sounds sweet!
