This is quite simple but challenging
exercise. It is based around superimposing a rhythm to the material you
are learning, or trying to master. In the video I take as an example a G
major scale and superimpose the following rhythms:
You can also reverse the exercise and keep the
eight note in the first part of the beat. Good Luck!
Hi, and welcome to my free video guitar lessons website. This is a collection of videos I will be
putting together over time. My goal is to humbly pick up from where a
lot of websites seem to stop. It is great to learn a lot of so called
'licks' or riffs, as these will be part of your
repertoire/vocabulary...instead of doing that, here I will try to give
you ideas on how to write your own material and improvise/build a solo
over it. A lot of this stuff might seem jazz/rock oriented but I will
assure you, it will give you a lot of freedom to play on contemporary
material, regardless of the style. Just visit the
video page, where you'll find a program that I developed to go from
the very basic way of building a major scale and finding how to play it
on guitar, to more advanced concepts to develop your style and improve
your instrumental technique.
This might turn out to be a very long
project as I am doing everything myself, from designing and updating
this website to editing the videos and everything in between...so if you
enjoyed these lessons or you feel this was beneficial to you in any way
find out here how to support this website.
If you want to find out more about me just visit my
Myspace
page or my
Youtube Channel. If you have any request for topics, I
will try as far as my knowledge can stretch to make a lesson about it,
so get in touch!
