Barre Chords!!
Hey! I’ve been wanting to put out a better barre chord chart for years. Here it is. Barre Chords get used a lot – especially in Rock and Roll. I’ll put out a video to go with this soon…Please share. Enjoy!
G Major Scale & E Minor Scale for Guitar – The Whole Neck!
Here’s all the patterns of the G Major Scale. Yup, its also the E Minor Scale (and 5 other ‘modes’, too). I’m constantly showing this to students — its massively useful for jamming in virtually all genres. You can play these same patterns in any key by sliding them up and down the neck. You can also divvy these patterns up in different ways – just trying to keep it simple. Pick, say, a pattern a month (or 3) and learn it well. Jam on songs in G major or E Minor. Start with the open and 12th position. (Notice its the same pattern). Have Fun!!!!
“Raised 2 – 7th Chords” on Guitar
Hey Guys,
I just posted a video showing how to jam some blues w/these chords.
For now, instead of teaching HOW to build them, which is actually pretty fascinating, let’s just ‘cheat’ and learn them visually 😉
The shapes are the same in all keys — so for E do everything 2 frets higher (or 10 frets lower ’cause it always adds up to 12; 2+10 =12).
Enjoy!
