  • How did you record this video???? It's very sharp and clear, and the voice is great (not really on the topic but I'm trying to make a video these days)

  • I used a Canon HD video recorder but recorded the audio separately with a good mic. THe only way to get good audio quality is to record it separately, though that does require some skills at audio/video editing.

  • What I was going after here was not so much the teaching of a broad idea but of one very specific concept, which is simply the combining of scalar and arpeggiated lines, hence the tab showing such lines. I appreciate the feedback nonetheless.

  • basically, you showed how to combine scales and arpeggios....by saying we needed to just combine the scales and arpeggios..

  • Nice Diezels! I play through the VH4 haha! :)

  • This video is related to his website, which is actually really informative on ways to improve technique and learn scales. I don't think he's trying to show off, he's just teaching a concept that you have to learn to use for yourself. He's not going to walk you through it. His website in general is for more advanced players looking to vary and improve their playing styles, so please don't knock him for showing a concept that you may not understand or may be above your level. Refer to his site.

  • The only thing that sounded good to me was the G chord at the end. I already know that chord.

  • I love these guys that are more interested in saying LOOK AT ME!!! LOOK AT ME!!!

    than anything about the guitar!!!!  or playing the guitar!

  • thats some awsome reverb and delay.

  • useless ....

  • To me, the only chords that are acceptable as a scale are the (root)1,3,5,7 chords, with or w/out the 8 (same note but higher as root)

    Do you know what I'm talking about?

    (the notes w/in one octave)

    Because alot scales I know are usually around 5-8 notes in one octave.

    (I'm not talking about the guy in the video he's pretty good)

  • @PUREVOSEX agreed hate when people do that , hey in this lesson im going to show u how i can play scales and arpeggios and you will have no clue how i did them
