GO TO: www.andrewwasson.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: I really like those 60's R&B sounds like Wilson Pickett, Booker T. & the MG's of course Jimi Hendrix and Keith Richards too. I've noticed they all seem to use much of the same scale sounds. I recently saw a local guitarist jamming this music at a club and he only used a small shape around each chord to add fills and to solo. He sounded great, in fact -- he sounded quite a lot like Jimi Hendrix. Is there a certain magic shape Hendrix and other guitar players in this style use to play riffs and to solo around a songs' chords? - Brodie, LasVegas Nevada. A: Classic R&B and Rock N Roll from the 60's had a nice way of adding in cool filler notes around chord changes. A good deal of these notes were from the pentatonic scale. But, rather than playing the scale as it would likely be shown in most guitar lesson books, many of these players used compact 5-Note shapes. There were usually clustered around those standard Major & Dominant chord voicings found off of 6th & 5th string roots.

GO TO: www.andrewwasson.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: I was wondering what I can do to incorporate Quartal Arpeggios. This alternative to triads , of building stacked 4th's seems really interesting to me. But, I can't seem to have any success making a song up using this approach, maybe I'm going at it all wrong. So, I'm wondering if you might be able to go through Quartal Arpeggio's & Harmony. Miguel -- Columbia A: In songwriting, or improvisation we can experience a very fresh effect by introducing a new vocabulary such as Quartal Harmony. This breaks away from the very common stacked 3rd's sound that we experience most often in music. When we begin looking at alternatives, like stacked 4th's, many times students will experience difficulty with controlling these new sounds. In our lesson on Quartal Arpeggios we'll explore this unique sound and learn how to practice it on the guitar.

GO TO: www.andrewwasson.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: Lately, my focus has been toward studying jazz, but I'm having a hard time understanding how all of the chords are constructed onto the guitar neck. My basic theory is totally down -- I've leant about triads and seventh chord formulas. But again, taking these formulas to the actual neck is really overwhelming and most of the chord books out there show too many variations! So, I really want to understand the theory to the neck along with knowing the visuals of shapes. Andrew, you always have a great way of taking the complex and making it simple and well understood in your videos on YouTube... I hope you can help me with this one! - Gairhard, Switzerland A: One solution to this dilemma is to build a few basic triad and seventh chords with their roots outlined and located off of; 6th, 5th, and 4th strings. The purpose of this exercise (and later guitar practice) is to learn to control each individual note that collectively creates the various chords. Begin with seeing a complete octave run of any major scale as degrees (not the specific tones, but rather numbers). Next, analyze where the chord tones, extensions and alterations reside. Take the study further by carrying on to doing this off of each string set mentioned above. The complete <b>...</b>

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio presents a guitar lesson in Fingerstyle Guitar... Q: Hello Andrew, I'd say that I am an intermediate to semi-advanced player and I've just discovered a guitarist named Kenny Burrell. I was wondering what he is playing over basic blues changes, because there seems to be jazzy sounds mixed in. He has a simple style, but he makes it swing and sound like jazz when he plays over say a 12-bar blues. I've read about this being called "The Blue Note" sound, however I am baffled by how players do this. Can you please make a lesson discussing what scales and musical concepts are involved with getting this Blue Note Sound. - Norman -- London, England A: The Blue Note sound is part of a very soulful group of recordings released in the late 1950's to mid- 1960's. And, two of the big names on guitar back then were definitely Kenny Burrell, as well as, a New York based guitarist named Grant Green. Now this style is part of what is commonly known of as Soul Jazz. The complete lesson article for this video is available on the Creative Guitar Studio website.

I like the way bands like Guns N' Roses and Skid Row use this mode to make their music. But, I dont understand how to write chord progressions using this mode applied to a style like classic rock. Thank you Thomas, Germany Thanks for writing in! There is a unique sound in classic rock played by artists like Neil Young, Guns N' Roses and many others that uses the Mixolydian mode.

My problem is that when I try to improvise I lose sight of the original melody from the piece. Is there anything I can do to help me improvise lines that better complement an existing melody? Thanks, - Geoff, New Zealand A: To explain this concept I'll use an already established melody as the basis for creating an improvisation. How this process works, has to do with the development of three principles concerned with applying these variations; #1). Altering the rhythms of the original melody part, #2). Changes to the original melodies upper and lower neighboring tones. #3). Variations to the kinds of guitar techniques you could use to perform the lines.

Q: I like instrumental rock and metal guitar the best with guitarists like; Paul Gilbert, Tony MacAlpine and Greg Howe ranking among my favorites. I'm no-place near the level of these guys, but I do enjoy writing this music. My problem is, I write melodies first & I can't get the chords that go in the background. Could you consider making a video around this topic of, "Matching Melodies to Chords." Brian -- Vancouver, CANADA A: When melodies are composed before chord progressions during songwriting, there are ways through theory and ways through trial and error that can come together to help musicians compose a set of chord changes that can be performed behind the pre-established melody. To do this sort of thing quickly, you'll need some back-ground knowledge in music theory, combined with experience from learning the harmonies found in other songs. Keep in mind that being able to draw from your experiences, (learning other people's songs), is paramount in order to have the complete set of skills required to be able to quickly target chords that sound good behind your pre-established melody. Have a look at some examples I've created for this lesson. They outline a number of key points that should help you in your quest for, "Matching <b>...</b>

Q: As I learn more about chords and how they work in songs I'm feeling like I know less and less about their function. My current teacher said I should get a chord dictionary. But, after getting one, I can't see how it helps, because the chords are all in isolation. Can you consider doing a video that conducts an overview of Chord Connections and Possibilities with Harmony. I'm either viewing chords too isolated, or I just don't know enough about harmony -- or both! Thanks for all that you do. Jon -- Petaluma, California A: Aside from categorizing and showing chord fingerings, chord dictionaries are simply showing the chords in isolation. Chords in isolation, (even at a simple level), can occur with enormous variety.

GO TO: www.andrewwasson.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: How can I apply triads in songs when they get mostly used as a second guitar part? Can you explain the function of triads especially in cases where chords already exist and the triads are used as a back-up part. They sound like they really help layer chord progressions, on both recordings & live, but I need help in understanding their basic application. Thanks. Peter -- Halifax, Nova Scotia A: The three-note chords commonly given names like; triads, triple-stops, or triadic inversions can operate in several ways including, (but not limited to); creating underlying harmony on a layered track when you're making a recording, implying a sound under a larger chord such as a 4-note chord otherwise known as a 7th quality chord, or perhaps as a rootless 7th chord where the only instrument implying the root is the bass guitar. In the video lesson I examine how triads operate in some of these types of situations. The complete lesson article for this video will be available on the Creative Guitar Studio website shortly.

Q: I read in a music theory book that nearly any song can be broken down to using three chords played behind any melody built from the first, fourth and fifth chords found within the key. If this is true, can you explain this theory, and maybe even demonstrate it using a simple common melody to show how this might actually work? Max -- Sweden A: This is a very interesting concept and one which I was first introduced to by a teacher I had at a workshop where we were discussing the art of performing audience requests. You know, when someone comes up to the front of the stage and asks if the band knows a certain piece. And, that's when I first discovered that the chords of the three main chord families can be used to play pretty much any song requested to a band. That is -- so long as the singer knows the basic vocal melody and enough of the words to basically fake it. In the video I discuss why this works and I demonstrate the process with a well known piece.

I just seem to only strum guitar with one or two basic strum patterns and could really use something fresh in my playing. Thanks, Jake - New Albany, IN.

A: I've put together a 3-Part method that breaks down the important points to help players have more success with playing solos! But, first of all, let's look at something here, guitarists that are new to soloing tend to improvise strictly from scales. And, the intervals they select tend to be small. Like MA & MI 2nd's and 3rd's. This tends to be the principle reason why they're playing comes off as dull sounding. Once you can increase your interval range on the fingerboard you'll start noticing your sound changing as well.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: I would like to know how to improvise more melodically over a chord progression in any key; being aware of the scales and mode positions for the shapes along the length of the neck that one can use to solo over a specific chord. And, how to pick out the chord tones and strong notes - ie resolving a lick/riff to the root and including the chord notes, etc... Also, some advice on practicing the scales/modes around chord progressions would also be ideal. - Ashley Smith -- England A: There is no doubt that Practicing scales and modes is certainly vital for developing a strong ability to solo melodically. However, there are many players like you that are finding difficulty with developing this skill. The key to tapping your full potential in this department will have to be the mastery of several concepts... 1). Practicing scales with a goal in mind of stretching your skills with them. In other words, never get stuck into a rut of constantly practicing scales day-in / day-out in the exact same way. 2). Learning other players; lines, guitar licks and phrasing styles. So, what I'm saying is, find a handful of guitar players that you really dig and learn at least an album's worth of their rhythm and lead lines. Yes, you heard me correctly -- I said Rhythm & Lead. 3). Practice composing melodies when you practice improvisation. It is simply not enough to sit around working on <b>...</b>

Q: I'm not very well grounded in music theory, so I was wondering if playing by shapes would work for the time being? I know the basic shapes for the triad chords, but I feel I lack in getting good musical statements with them. Could you offer any tips for gaining a more spontaneous response for playing by shapes in my solos. - Otello, Italy A: One of the more important ideas when it comes to licks created by shapes is spending time practicing the shapes diatonically along related string sets and eventually along the entire fingerboard. The idea we're trying to develop is having a comfort level with scale & chord sound as it relates to shapes. And, you'll have to gain quite a high level of comfort with the shapes before you'll find that they just show up effortlessly in your solos.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: Id like to know about ways of incorporating chords in solos. Ive listened to some songs by Eric Johnson and Allan Holdsworth, and they often incorporate chords in their solos. Their solos do not consist of single notes only, but often beautiful chords. And the chords they use seem to fit perfectly in their solos - hence making the solos very beautiful. Id like to do that to my solos, but where should I start? Thank you, Calvin Hong Kong Thanks for writing in! Playing chords during a solo is a great soloing device. In the video I discuss several ways to begin getting this technique into your playing.

Q: Can you do a video about the method involved in composing two-note chord riffs (not power chords) like those riffs found in songs like Metallicas Orion, or in a song like, Wasted Years, by Iron Maiden. I really like this two-note chord concept, but I dont understand how it works when Im songwriting. - Reuben, Minneapolis Those two-note chords are commonly referred to by guitarists as Double-Stops. They can be either major or minor and operate as a simple two-note harmony when playing in a key center. The complete lesson article for this video is available on the Creative Guitar Studio website.

Q: I am a beginner, and I feel that I need a short breakdown that covers how beginners should think about and approach a daily practice routine. I feel like I just dont know what to practice, and I get really distracted. I also would like to know what kind of length of time I should expect to work on practicing guitar until a day finally comes where my technique at playing it is what would be considered competent. - Oliver, Baltimore, MA.

Q: I just got into a guitarist named Larry Coryell and he sometimes uses a technique that makes his guitar sound kind of like a harp. Would you be able to do a video explaining the technique of this sound. It is really ccol. Bennie Chicago This technique is usually referred to as, Octave Harmonics. And, its a very cool technique thats done by touching the harmonic of a note 12 frets above any open, or fretted note. Also, you should keep in mind that a harmonic can be produced by touching at other points as well. The complete lesson article for this video is available on the Creative Guitar Studio website.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com This video explains the various families of the harmonized major scale. After building chords upon each step of the major scale and naming the family name given to each step, the chords can then be grouped together. The groups represent an effect of common emotional effects. These chords present similar sounds due to the number of tones they share. The act of mixing one chord for and with others in a common family is the application of "Diatonic Substitution."

Recently, I have been working hard to learn jazz standards from the 5th Edition of the Real Book. My current challenge is to expand upon my knowledge of extensions on seventh chords to include the various altered chords. Can you please do a video covering some of the most common altered chords on guitar, how to think of them, and how to apply them smoothly in jazz standards. Thanks! Darryl London, England Altered chords are excellent chords to have a solid understanding about when youre playing jazz music. Unfortunately, many times the application of altered chord voicings can be pretty confusing for students so I think that a really appropriate way to cover this topic will be a two part video lesson.

I was wondering if you could do a video on Jazz soloing that uses a simple progression like a blues and shows some scales to use and ideas about how to play through the chord changes. - Tyler, Vancouver, Canada Soloing over a Jazz Blues progression and making it sound like jazz, involves using a number of scale, arpeggio, extension and altered tones.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: If I want to do very simple improvising, over simple pop songs, do I really have to practice the scales in all five positions? I know about six different scales but they are 3 different types; Maj. Scale, Maj. Pentatonic and Min. Pentatonic. Or, is it enough to just familiarize with the sound of the scale and just listen and play what sounds right? Is it enough to just have a feel for it, or do I really need to know the notes? - Ezyo Nowhere does it say everyone must shred. In fact, keeping things simple often makes solos and lines more palatable to a larger audience. Remember that old saying, "Keep it Simple Stupid." By using a few easy to remember box shapes, anyone can quickly cover major or minor sounds with a straight forward solo, or composed melody line.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question: Q: I have been searching for a good lesson about a concept called "Pitch Axis Theory", but I cannot find one that explains how to use it. Most of the stuff Ive found just goes on about Modes, but doesnt really cover how the shredder guys and the fusion guys actually use this concept musically. Can you please do a lesson about this topic, I really want to know more about it! Thanks, Joey - New York, NY. Thanks for writing in! Pitch Axis Theory is essentially playing modal. There is a bass pitch which remains static and under that pitch we can perform scales of different types. There can even be another layer of harmony present under the bass pitch. This can influence scale types that can be used to create melody.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio runs through the idea of Harmonic Patterns with Latin guitar styles. Hi Andrew, I was hoping you could follow-up on something that my own guitar teacher couldnt explain to me all that well. He is a rock player and this question is on a fingerstyle topic. It is called Travis Picking. There are some explanations Ive found through Google, but most of the YouTube videos Ive watched are just guys playing really fast and not really explaining it very well. Hope youll do a video on this. Thanks! - Garrett, Cleveland, OH. Thanks for writing in! Travis Picking is a fantastic pattern playing concept that can be built to high speeds and works well for many styles of music. Kansas had a huge hit called Dust in the Wind back in the '70s and last year Pearl Jam had a hit called Just Breathe - both were applying the use of Travis Picking. In the video, I cover the application of this pattern off of several string sets. I also cover a nice old time country music turnaround phrase.

www.creativeguitarstudio.com Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio answers a viewers question... Q: I am getting heavy into jazz guitar, and a number of times now Ive read about something related to where you can substitute a dominant chord into a key using any note of the scale of the key youre in. My question is, what exactly is the theory on this dominant chord substitution topic? Gerard Los Angeles, CA. USA This idea is called Secondary Dominant chord application. And, it works to create a greater sense of anticipation for the arrival of the next diatonic chord. The thing is the Secondary Dominant is functioning as a V7 of a chord other than I. In the video lesson I give several examples of both functioning and non-functioning Secondary Dominants. The complete lesson article for this video is available on the Creative Guitar Studio website.

It seems that I always get stuck when it comes to writing the harmonies and the melodies with them. For example, right now I am studying the Hindu Scale (the 5th Mode of Melodic Minor). But, try as I might -- I cannot make a beautiful melody or chord progression. Have you any tips for how to approach working on harmony & melody with new scales? Filip -- Poland A: Players can look at the degrees of a scale and build chord progressions using a more natural and creative approach. To do this, we will be examining the notes of the scale and how they sit in a few locations on the guitar neck.

And, can you demonstrate and make a tab lesson? - Marcelo, Lisbon Portugal If you're not familiar with the term Open String Blues it's really a great sound popularized by both Blues & Rock artists alike. Especially, guys like Stevie Ray Vaughn & Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. Open String Playing is all about playing a lot of your notes in the open position which would be within the first 5 frets. It incorporates a lot of keys that lend themselves well to open string use, like E, A, and D. Plus, of course, taking advantage of the effect of the ringing open strings.
