nah. i usually just fool around with the tuning until I discover some open sounding chord that's really good. but there are a few things to keep in mind. Like it's usually a good idea to heave a 4th or 5th between the bass strings because those intervals really provide a solid framework for harmonic progressions, but even I don't always do that
thanks man. i don't know how i could teach my ways. honestly i love so many genres from classical, to rock, to blues, to techno. but man, when I pick up a guitar, this is what comes out. i can't explain it, it just pours out of my soul
i can understand why ur happy at the end, it seems in the blooper u messed up at some parts late in the song so u had to start over recording all over again right? ive been recording some music but it wont upload on my comp and i have a pretty good camera (.avi) im thinking of just buying a webcam
haha yeah its terrible when you mess up near the end. that's strange that your camera won't upload to your computer. if your getting a webcam for music, make sure it has a really good microphone. mine doesn't so i have started recording the audio separately with an audio recorder and then syncing it with the video
It reminds me of Phil Keaggys song "The Reunion" off the album wind and the wheat - check it out, theres even a vid here on YT I would not be surprised to learn hes an influence, hes amazing, and this is a great song. Respect.
thanks! yeah i wrote it. its in EABEBe. and as far as the nails go, i'm still taking alot of chemistry and physics and stuff like that so i can get by. i just get some weird looks every once in a while :)
i am taking piano lessons, and that is tough with long nails
To give some constructive criticism I have to say your tempo/beat swayed at a few places. And I felt that the song changed tempo a bit too often. But this is really good anyhow, you're very skilled! Keep at it.
yeah i noticed that too. i played the hammer-on/pull off run at the beginning a little bit too fast, and then the tempo slows down a little afterwards. i will definitely address this tempo issue if I ever record professionally. thanks for your comments
