"Metal" Scale (Minor Melodic)

[13Danjiri]

. . . on the way up, then it's just aeolian going down. In classical music, that is. In jazz and other modern music, its natural 6th and 7th both ways. Gettit?

[13Danjiri]

Melodic minor has a natural 6th.

[josdavis5309]

clearisil can do wonders my friend lol

[TemuraJW]

its looks like wanking

[piece0of0cake]

[cerebrallockdown]

when the title of a video is like the one here you should probably try actually playing the scale itself not a random riff in that scale

[ekgop]

[MrDarinWarren]

Don't be afraid to boost your mids....a lot! That's where guitars are heard. :)

[TheN1nthPlague]

Watch my lesson on harmonic minor scale n tell me if u liked it :)

[besta7xfan]

first, you where playing harmonic not melodic minor.. but not bad you just really gotta work on technique but keep working on it bro

[megamuerte669]

you got a fucking razorback!!! :E--

[sgrouge]

try to mix both major and minor pentatonic scales, I think you will like it.

[Hertsman50]

Dude if you think that example is good enough to upload then you're a fucking idiot.

[OnyxBeastGuitar]

@Hertsman50 At least he has the guts to upload it, unlike you, cunt

[Hertsman50]

[James0543]

@402592 hey retard, many metal heads have long hair.

[Noobist56]

[bonestorm99]

@Noobist56 He's playing a dean razorback, like dimebag's guitar.

[TheSonsofHorusx]

u look like a cadavar lol

[scottiewayne03]

Dude, good job! However your amp sounds like shit!

[Boone7195]

dean razorback explosion? ive got 1 to

[imawsome1256]

sketchy...

[MjXllcommando]

dude you are caught in elbow picking, use your wrist, it will make you more precise and more relaxed, also dong get caught up in the speed picking thing you were doing in the beginning, make sure you are hitting every note the right way first, then worry about speed, finally use less distortion, you want to be able to hear each individual note. hope this helps

[frontman696]

you suck! !!! Your guitar is not tuned

[ChapelOfGhouls66]

Fuck all these people. You sound great!! Keep it up!

[DimebagCFH4Life]

did u eve get this?

[nicholass21]

Sloppy.

[tooleytim]

well its not terrible but how long have u been playin? cuz iv been playin on and off for 2 years and i can shred way better than that now...one thing u might try is to put a bandana or like a rag around the first fret to mute the unwanted notes. thats what i did wen i first started and now iv got it down

[WilliamBonneau]

go for Hungarian minor man, way more metal, especially with the augmented arpeggios, and its melodic minor, last thing; pick from your wrist and RELAX!! still decent, keep at it.

[taleofrevenge]

watch?v=k5FZu0T6hLE

[HeadrushTheory]

sweet guitar...... i own th same axe

[1971SuperLead]

OH GOSH! BE CAREFUL! THERE IS A RAZOR ON YOUR 12TH FRET!

[AlexZanderrrr]

@1971SuperLead Don't worry, Just like Dime, He cuts the razor. The Razor doesn't cut him.

[9kevin]

hey I can do better than that with my toes

[CaptainSven94]

such a shitty sound

[Halolaloo]

@kls4life

are you a boy or gir xD

[djbot]

not really a metal scale ; all genres of music use the melodic minor. if anything it sounds like egyptian music

[bobbob191]

melodic metal is for fake, idiot, gay people.. chromatic is where thy heart lies

[HeadrushTheory]

@bobbob191 yo man! any chance you could upload th chromatic scale...???

[PS3SilentScope]

u look like marilyn manson without make up

[metalldead]

mucha guitarra para alguien tan malo xD! hace pal mute mierda :/

[420Victoryismine]

Yeah, maybe they should make the date more BOLD. But I've seen some of your other vids, good stuff.

[xhappyxscreamingx]

you picking hand looks pretty stiff in the first 12 seconds, more wrist man you need to use your wirst more for speed picking. you get more control and that equals a better sound

[kls4life]

@xhappyxscreamingx once again, thanks for the advice 3 years ago.

[flashpadxxx]

@xhappyxscreamingx There are many great and fast player who dont use their wrist for fast speedpicking....I think Michael Angelo for example...

[xhappyxscreamingx]

@flashpadxxx true that. just the majority of instructers i have talked with have told me its poor technique. i feel more fluid and more in control when i use my wrist as opposed to my arm

[escimojoe751]

he looks just like the guy from dazed and confused.

[Pur3P0wn4g3]

Well, by those three years you sure have got better ;)

[liam264]

Worst Guitar Sound Ever!

[scottiewayne03]

@liam264 If my guitar sounded that shitty I would never post a vid like that. He should piss on that crappy amp!

[jilianfrost]

keep jamin! :)

[kls4life]

@jilianfrost I did. Haha, That was 3 years ago. Gotta check out my newer videos. Thanks for the comment.

[JrileyEADG]

if it werent for your chin pubes, i would have thought you were a chick

[AlexSassy]

youre not playing any scale just showing off

[goblinspawn]

Nice Dean guitar

[metal491]

dont try too hard u might crap ur pants.

[AlexSassy]

@kls4life you stupid whats the problem with jews

[ishkabobdan]

@kls4life wow ur a fag

[Hertsman50]

@metal491 lol

[angle2200]

Oops Its not a razorback lol

[angle2200]

Cool vid I personally like your razorback dean dime lol is it a floyd rose tremollo floating bridge?

[slash873]

your good but i hate your guitar what brand is it

[d3vilofdreams121]

hey this guy is on my friend list on facebook!!/m\

[dartzful]

dirty,,lol

[Dany1148]

Stoopidest guitar ever made.

[Ni213Ki]

MELODIC MINOR IS A #6 & #7 ascending the scale, and naturalise the 2 notes when descending the scale. HARMONIC MINOR is #7 ascending and descending. I have no idea what is played in this demo though.

[ihatenatwolf]

that sounded awful dude

[pre17kk]

¿?!¿?!?¿!?¿!?!?¿!¿?!¿?!¿?!¿?

la mejor guitarra del mundo para eso?????

[sidmalicious]

You jerk off too much. It shows in your "style." Get a girlfriend. Less wanking, more practice. Oh, and buy a book on music theory - you need it.

[kls4life]

@sidmalicious Thanks for your wise advice 3 years ago. Anything else?

[almostgary]

what Minor Melodic mean

[grumb123]

bahaha, you's funny.

[distorsionneur]

@sidmalicious Bitch

[atriuo]

harmonic minor. its an augmented seventh from the natural minor.

[alexkramermusic]

You are using the Harmonic Minor Scale. Not Melodic Minor.

[watakah]

waaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahah­a

[mangaka08]

dude you really need to turn down your highs and reduce you mids a bit.

[666dukha666]

WTF???? =s

[maideniac69]

Good finger position, bad playing!

[blackrain012893]

i have that guitar. fuckin love it

[bosio88]

BAD SOUND!!

[joefalchetto94]

this is armonic scale not melodic..

[Tornfromreality]

i wish i could play like that lol but my finger dexterity and my accuracy are shite.

[DanielSanHBA]

so are his lol

[lilnigga864]

wuuurd!!!!

[stelderhaiderman]

what does dexterity mean? :D

[AustinAlive1]

its like coordination

[quincy3521]

its not coordination, it meens how well u can stretch ur fingers

[stelderhaiderman]

thanks!

[phred754]

why does it post my comment at the top if i said reply to someone, god damn you tube

[jhdka3de2021]

it sounds so much treble in it... you can add some level of middle tone to increase the importance of each note you are playing..

[stelderhaiderman]

it´s the camera.

[hellodarkness84]

Nice! I'm trying to get out of the blues/classic rock scales myself and make a smooth transition into metal playing.

[7goatmilk7]

nice guitar i got one of those. agreed dont turn up the knobs to much

[Akalack]

nice dean

[keithssexy12]

oh yacadauchih and vkristo just got owned keep up the good work man

[296801]

Awesome.

[AgnonOfMetal]

Hey man, I checked out your new shit. Good stuff bro. Keep it up man.

[kls4life]

This 2.5 years old. Meanwhile show me a video of you playing, if not, shut your fucking mouth and watch my newer videos.

[YacadaUchiha]

give me a few weeks lol ill destroy this.

[phred754]

its been a few weeks douchebag, wheres your destroying vids?

[FunknGrvn]

Agreed don't you just love jackasses who make comments and have nothing to back it up?! Keep it up bro:)

[Vkristo]

noob.

[pranasun7]

@Vkristo and this is when the music world is collapsing, because deluded guys like you, who have certainly no grasp on ART, and call people "noob" just like if a musician had to make a PERFORMANCE in World Of Warcraft. I'm a musician since 20 years, and unfortunately I see that nothing is sacred anymore.

[jacksonguitar35]

get urself a new amp...and dont turn all ur knobs of to 10....

[bill14231393]

turn them to 11

[alucardwillfreed14]

harmonic minor is the main metal scale my man. Not melodic minor I don't think.

[Blader999]

line 6 amp...

[axeiston]

sounded like crap for a razorback explosion my god

[PikitAnimation]

dude razorback!!! thats awesome!!! i went to guitar center with my dad and he got me a razorback but i cant have it till christmas! :(

[JabbaYo]

Im in the same situation as you but im getting a esp ltd kh 202 instead. haha

[aintgotnosoul48]

not bad, man! your left-hand technique looks pretty smooth. I never really liked the "my guitar sounds like a sawmill" tone, though.

[G0thSentFr0mH3ll]

He did a good job,shit I couldn't do that good.lol.People who click on videos just for chicks,just means there perverts.He looks like a guy to me,his hair is long because he likes it and its metal/rock style.

[tobydick09]

yeah... umm... this vid is egregiously mediocre, and sound quality could be better.

and yeah, i thought you were a chick too.

all in all, this video was kind of a weird experience.

[Underdogjoe]

aw man i only clicked on this vid cause i thought u was a chick!

[gigosai]

Harmonic Minor!!!

[darkrai1555]

is this melodic or harmonic minor? i hear the harmonic minor at times.

[MawBTS]

I assume this is just on some crappy practice amp he has

[OddSide6]

Holy Hell, quit working on your scales and work on your TONE. Dump the Line 6 and get a tube amp. It's all about the tone.

[Blader999]

the guitar sounds so cold!

[Rorroki]

mmm .... that is the Harmonic minor scale no the Melodic minor

[CountSymphonic]

I think the neoclassical genre has the most interesting sound to me. However I hate how robotic 99% of shredders are with it. People think they should play as fast as they can or just play through scales and it is automatically impressive, and it is when you first get to seeing it. But after a while it get's old, especially when you realize anyone can do it. Neoclassical is probably a dying genre for this reason. You can still play neoclassical metal but have more expressive lead guitars. EFFORT

[ZZZDeep]

technically great! but I wouldn't pay a dollar to watch this live, lower the distortion and play with feel and meka it FUN and INTRESSTING to listen to. then I would pay to see you live "rocker"!

[ChowderDingus]

Not necessarily referring to this kid...but you HAVE to know your theory. Nothing steams me more than people who think they can play but dont know any music theory b/c they are too stupid or too lazy to learn. it would be like trying to speak a language without knowing what any of the words mean.

[feeblemind]

yeah youd hate me thats how i started and thought I could do that but now im restarting and taking classes for music theory and learning all the notes all over the fret board instead just memorizing scales and shit.

[Draglion123]

music theory as in sheet music or music theory as in an over all basis to playing. I have tried using sheet music for guitar and it just doesnt float my boat. however i do beleive that one must practice and master time signiture and counts to play properly. Because come on how can you put drum parts to a guitar without recognizing the bpm. you know?

[TheImmaculateDude]

if he was trying to play shitty, then he did a good job, keep practicing, even slash can still get better, and only with practice

[falige]

trying is a good way of describing this.

[hxcmexi]

SUCKS BALLS

[FOFballer]

cutyour hair, get a guitar that doesnt make you look like a fag. then i think youll be better.

[bedikngatagajaniuay]

fuck!!noob....

[textr1]

haha i thought you were a chick at first and i was not going to critisize you or anything but dude that sucked

[Draglion123]

how dare you critisize someone for trying to learn. that is just pathetic. id say he did damn good.

[RRyyNNee]

yea i agree but why do people post practice sessions?

[Draglion123]

just to express themselves, i used to make videos of improvs so i could look back on the riffs to write songs, though now my tech is to hard to follow, lol. so basically to get others opinions and get tips.

[PadreGarib]

dude, that is, Harmonic Minor, not Melodic Minor

[skaaaaaater]

i think that due to how he plays, by now he should atleast know the difference between harmonic and melodic....if he decides to add in just one natural 7th, that's up to him but just that one note does not decide whether it is harmonic minor or melodic.

[PadreGarib]

the 3rd is the difference between melodic and armonic, he is playing a Minor 3rd, not a Major 3rd, so it harmonic ....

[skaaaaaater]

3rd isn't the difference. Minor scales are not built with a M3.

Hm - 1,2,b3,4,5,b6,7

Mm(a) - 1,2,b3,4,5,6,7

Mm(d) - 1,2,b3,4,5,b6,b7

All minors have minor 3rds...differences r between the 6th & 7th degrees.

[speedofacentipede]

not bad at all

[kls4life]

Ok, i know I sucked back then, but check out my channel and my new videos!

[thorkamelot]

this video was made in 2007

you have to play very well now

[ggplox]

No.

[diegoxriff]

suena askeroso!! xd

[esprorro]

una mierda

[toothplease]

oh shucks are you married? i missed my chance

[metalarmaggeddon]

that was good i like itg definatly better than me

[IBANEZFAN1000]

BOO!!

[cobraopts7]

nope deans are short scale gibson and prs are also short scale also what guitar do you have

Ok fellas. Baritone is a longer scale guitar, typically a guitar varies from 24- 26 scale lenght. baritone is from 27- 30. Its a guitar in between regular guitar and a bass. Hope that helps to avoid further confusion.
