Riff of The Week™ - Season 4,Ep52: "That Legato Riff"

[64fretless1]

Dave Great as usual , Thanx for playin a tele,Question could you do a linear riff that Plays Progression (I,V,I)Fassion?I Guess it would sound Kinda Neo Classic,if it was Legato,I've been trying this with Dif. Progressions , I Would Like to here your take on it?

[wrinkledquarter]

Holy crap Dave.

[kukurei]

i hope you have a playlist,

[mr252307]

Hey dave.. why are most of the new vids not on your website??

[DAVEWEINER]

getting caught up.

[vadm13]

1:55 epic face lol xD

[smn9ac]

Oh, RedBear! Love those pics. They really do have amazing sound to them. Just a little hint; don't try to test their durability by bending them, they will break in half. haha.

[garysmartable]

Is it the beggin on season 5??

[DAVEWEINER]

next week.

[garysmartable]

awesome lesson Dave.

[frontsideflipin]

awesome vid dave, i kept having to rewind your explanation though. Found my self memorized with the track that was playing while you were explaining. Love your music, keep it up!!

[bozzojoe]

Dave, What particular Redbear pick are you using? They have so many on their site, and they are all turtle shell color, where as yours looks clearish in the video.

[DAVEWEINER]

I use the Big Jazzer H in a variety of colors.

[bozzojoe]

Thanks Dave!!

[JoJo72X]

About 23 years. Approximately.

[BoXViD]

[caglarhepterlikci]

Great work with this videos Dave, please look my private message

[grimchain]

I checked out the red bear site couldnt find a button to buy the picks. but really $15+ for a guitar pick. Is it really that much better than the $0.25 dunlop ones i can get at guitar center

[DAVEWEINER]

far better. far worth the price. Is $20 worth better tone and playability to you?

[grimchain]

Mabye if i ever get good enough to start playing shows with ppl ill check them out. But i lose picks to often to blow 20 dollars for one right now.

[BRADHblackdragon]

yeah great vid as usual dave

i was sure u were on an amp to begin but then its revealed u on amplitube ..

anyone else faver guitar rig 4?..

[fwd0120]

I use both lol- they are both very different- but sound the same in quality, in GR you are using a more technical interface, with amplitube its more like a 'real' setup and is divided like a real signal chain - stomp boxes, amp and preamp, then cabs, then rack mounted-

guitar rig is more modular in its interface, the screen is divided into two halves, left and right - the right side has your amp and pedal, EQs etc. and the left is more like a control pane- with tabs for presets, components etc

[psycho969]

Why don't you make a "sound like Joe Satriani" lesson.That would be great because lets face it,nothing sounds like Satriani's legato.We appreciate your lessons.

[acejcra]

Great Vid Dave, Have you ever played earnie Ball music man guitars? or PRS maybe?

I'm having a hard time picking my next guitar.

budget aroud 1500 to 2000, played a couple different models but it's a bit hard for me to pick the right one, you know.

[hansgrock]

...interesting "non-anouncement" t'wards the end there...what could it be...?

Great ROTW as always, Dave.

Keep Rock Alive

[grzana2429]

Hello Dave! I like this riff a lot, i would have to reverse this vid. 30 times to fully remeber it :). Have you got a TAB?

sorryy.. i im not really comfortable with notes ;)

[DAVEWEINER]

rewatch the vid and listen for where the tab is.

[joesimmons90]

Have you tried V-Picks?

[DAVEWEINER]

yes

[hideyasoki]

it would be really awesome having you teaching us the legato intro from ''shyboy''

[Bautonman]

so how old are you?

24?

[DAVEWEINER]

exactly.

[mastariffa]

ha ha ha..

[Dread098]

awesome riff =)

[theweirdphone]

Awesome Video Dave as always, you have helped my playing out quite a bit. Now I just have to find a band ha ha. Keep doing what you are doing man. Awesome stuff.

[palgaez35]

Thanks Dave

[spermuncle]

neat riff dave.. you play it so cleanly :)

[Usinji]

Wow thats a sweet riff dave. Rythm aside, its awesome.

[cooley23]

Dave, that is an awesome riff! It will certainly give me something very challenging to work on! Linear runs are where I'm most deficient. You're the best ! Thanks!

Scott

[blake1405]

Wow, that looks hard haha

Nice riff :)

[joesatriani1200rulez]

wow ive never seen a legato riff like that its was kinda weird seeing that after watching vai and satch just go up and down . Really original and i like it

Brilliant dave keep it up!! :D

[RasecKnarf]

Legato rules

[mariahkoko]

it started with that linear Cmin stuff in the episode 51 and now this... you are making up some really mindblowing stuff that i can't play :-D but still... you are awesome guitar player and a big inspiration for me

[RobsterJay]

Nice Riff Dave! Is that a Big Jazzer Heavy? I did check out RedBear a few months ago, but wasn't sure what would be close enough to a Jazz III XL to make me shell out the cash, cos they ain't cheap. :)

[DAVEWEINER]

I play the Big Jazzer H. It slays the J3XL.

[RobsterJay]

Cheers! I'll give 'em a try!

[estring777]

Right...you really to work on your Legato ,Dave..?!?!?!?

Nice line. I love the contour.

[gpal23]

so let me see if get this right, legato is just play a scale, but playing all around the neck? or something like that?

[SIXSTRING63]

Very cool riff Dave. I'll be working that out for this weekends gig.

Mike

[joemunkey30]

[LazerRazor7]

Thanks for the vid Dave , good job..

[mmmburgers]

[BINATONE64]

The key is Rythm...well YOU realy Spot the thing thank for the Musical Lick!!!

[SparXvsGodzilla]

[DevoGuitar08]

[MUSIC4URDOG]

[DAVEWEINER]

[MUSIC4URDOG]
