Slowing down songs is another great way to learn from records and your song collection. I use Song Surgeon, which works really well for this. Check it out. |
A slick sounding Mixolydian run, using the B and high E strings. This lesson will also show you how play diatonic thirds from the Mixolydian mode. Practice this guitar slowly, and get used to the slides at a reasonable tempo. If you play it faster than you can handle, it will just sound sloppy. It's a bit of technical lick, that becomes very useful to throw into different situations, once you get used to the moves and the pattern of this mode, on 2 strings.
Understanding I-IV-V is an intensive 65 minute video that will give you a crash course on guitar theory. It is not a complete lesson on music theory. Instead, this is the perfect introductory tool to get you started on the guitar, or to reveal the secrets of the fretboard that you are not aware of yet. You will learn why chord numbers are far more important than chord letters, how to write your own songs and chord progressions effortlessly and endlessly, and much more.
I use Guitar Pro for most of my video lessons. It is a great product that will not only show you the notes in both TAB and standard notation, you will also HEAR them being played at the same you see them. Very helpful for learning! Click the link below to try the free demo.
I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.
