Just wanted to show some of my favorite chords to use to jazz up some riffs and give it a more defining sound.
Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPpmea5lsQQ

anyone have a good solo tab or lesson for it?

Hey boys and girls!

this tought just "popped up" in my head, and i realised that i didn´t know the answer, and it would be cool to know, just for the fun of it . so if you know this..please do tell!

GETCHA PULL!!

I've been getting into Kansas for a couple years, but I can't find any tabs online except for their big hits that get overplayed on classic rock radio stations. Does anyone know where I could find any? I've checked Ultimate-guitar and 911 tabs.
Specifically, I'm looking for "Lightning's Hand" and "Sparks of the Tempest". Will I just have to work on it myself?
Thanks!

I'm having trouble getting the tapping intro in Van Halen's "Women In Love" to really ring out.

I know how it's played but when I do the tapping I can't seem to get the notes to ring out loudly and clearly like Eddie seems to do. I was wanting to get some tips on octave tapping (if that's even what it's called ) because I can't seem to make it sound too great.

Here's the song

Anyone got any good exercises to strengthen my fret hand pinky? I've been doing the whole 1-2-3-4 thing, and also the 1-4 thing on all six strings. I can't seem to build the strength up in it no matter what I try.

For instance just say your playing a triplet symmetrical lick.

starting on the low E play something like 5-7-9.

My whole life I've alternate picked so on the low E I would start with a down stroke, and on the A I would start with a upstroke.

My question is do any of you start with a down stroke every string?

When I saw the video I was curious to see how many people pick that way?

So I've been wanting to start lessons the past few months. I've been playing for around 11 years but am noticing quickly how far behind I've become. I picked guitar up really fast but I guess playing mostly MetallicA for 8 years really didn't help me progress. So I've been talking with Bill Pierce, the teacher of Corey Beaulieu of Trivium, and while things sounded perfect he's become too busy with other students so I have to look elsewhere now. Jeff Loomis is on Bandhappy so he's giving lessons, but he's not booking any so either he's too busy, or he's not interested yet. So for the hell of it I decided to google "rusty cooley lessons" and noticed he actually has a business where he gives lessons. There's other guys as well but for a bit more money I can get lessons straight from Rusty. $100 an hour for the other guys, $160 a half hour for Rusty. That's a s#%t load of money but it's probably worth it.

Now if you're wondering why I'm looking only at famous guys my reasoning is pretty much cause I've been playing for 10 years, so I'm not a beginner. I've tried taking lessons once before and while I actually contacted the guy first there was just this feeling of "I don't know you and you have no track record, why should I listen to you". I don't want to sound arrogant cause I'm not in any way, but I want a teacher than I can respect before I even start talking to him. A guy that I watch play and wish I could be like him, and that's what these 3 guys are. Now of course there's a million other amazing guitarists out there but these 3 actually give lessons and I already look up to them.

So my question is would you guys pay $160 a half hour, once a week, for lessons with Rusty Cooley? I mean most lessons are like $40 a half hour at most. I could easily live with $100 an hour, but damn this is quite a chunk of cash for so little time.

Well can someone tell me a way how to break out of pentatonic phrasing, cause currently i'm kinda stuck in a rut

I need the chords to "God was never on your side" off of the Inferno album. Ive tried like 4 or 5 times and all of them are different and all sound wrong!


TAB WIZARDS:

If you can tab by ear HELP!

If you have accurate tabs, please post them, if you can already play it, tab it out, between work and school I dont have the time or patience anymore.

Does anyone know resources as to where I could learn how to play the song 'Floods'- by Pantera?

So I'm looking for a solo to learn and work on. I'm a good guitar player, but have mostly stuck with rhythm for the band I'm in. I play a few small solos, but that's it. I just wanted to know what solos are best to start with for heavy metal. I'm into Black Sabbath, Black Label, Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, and that kind of music. Anybody know some good, easier solos for these artists?

The worse thing a guitarist can do is just play one style of music or ignore what can be learned by exploring a different sound.

If your shooting for the stars or just looking for that cover band gig,
sooner or later if your a serious guitar player we all have to face the fact that if you want work the person with the biggest trick bag gets the gig.

While speed and sweep picking is impressive, Its not all there is. Why do you think the solo's that are truly remembered by the masses have depth, soul and unique phrasing.


There are great backing tracks all over youtube and the web in all sorts of styles and keys. This is a great and cheap way of exploring different styles and learning the art of soloing and developing a unique sound of your own. Its also a great way of developing in key memory playing.

Keep it fresh, play something different today!

Hi guys, haven't been on here for a while. I'm looking for tabs, tunings,etc etc for guitar and bass to blunt force trauma. None of my usual tab spots have this song or any DP at all for that matter. I'm sure they're here some where. I'm too busy trying to learn new stuff to look. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx, Zach

I have been slaving away at this and could use some comments, positive or negative. I am just too close to it now to see/hear what I should be looking at y'know?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5LVIqV5NCs

This is going to be a short and sweet one.
What are some good online resources for learning about blues soloing, some essential licks and the theory behind how and why certain licks work with certain types of chords?
I've never had a lesson in my life, and currently I sadly cannot afford it either, so this will probably be my best option.
I'm in dire need of a crash course because of my upcomming project.
Any help much appreciated.

This is my Wickerman bass cover on my fender p bass. thought i would share it.

thanks!

BE BETTER THAN ME!!!!

Hello to everybody,
somebody could tab the fast picked parts before the classical sounding string skipping part?
I already tabbed that string skipping part out, if anybody's interested in it.
Thanx!
Dino

Here's the video of the solo:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfxZxYSAc2s

As the title of this thread suggests, I wrote the first solo of my life today. Im not a lead player by any stretch, and this is far off what I normally play. Figured I'd share it with the forum, and perhaps get some helpfull comments.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9231212/soloish%20done.mp3
Please be gentle, and excuse the slop.

E: Updated with drums.

This was solved about a week or two after posted already, enough bumping old topics

anybody got the tabs for this amazing solo?
Thanx
Dino

Now that I got my new guitar I'd like to learn some 80s, 70s, and early 90s metal that can actually challenge a player, any suggestions?

I've just learnt Black Shuck

Looking at starting to learn Givin up.. (givin a F) but I have to learn the live version, and learn it in 2 parts. (as you do with all their songs!).

I'm just trying to decipher who actually plays what at what point, then I can learn it!

Hopefully, I'll get round to recording both parts and linking them together in a video.

hey im trying to figure this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d03e9fVvk_A
@ 1:38. All tabs Ive ever seen are way off imho. anyone got it down?

I hope you will enjoy the video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HokDIhT7Hxc

This section is in the key of G# minor, with lots of chromatic passing tones.


You can download the TAB and the backing track here:

I am really into death metal and i have been trying to come up with good riffs and I just cant get any riffs that i really like.I am tuned low so i have that factor. Can you guys give me some help as to sounding better when it comes to death metal.

Some popular scales with death

hey folks,

here i have an import question regarding How to properly store a couple of pickups that are not going to be used in some time.

I recently removed my stock pickups from my Soltero and replaced them with a ZW set of EMG's.

The removed pickups are the Dean Lesli West pickups that i will save for my next guitar...no idea when is gonna happen so i will
have to store em properly.

We have lots of humidity were i live.

I Thanks you

***DISCLAIMER***
*** I may or may not have any idea what i'm talking about***

there was some discussion in the tiki the other night about constructing your own sweep arpeggios, so i thought i'd give a shot at teaching you what (little) i know. this is the first lesson i've ever attempted so bear with me.

this lesson is more about what to play than how to play it. the importance of practicing these techniques has already been beaten to death around here

for ease, i'll stick with the E minor scale for this whole lesson.
the notes in this scale are:
E F# G A B C D

most sweep arpeggios are based on basic triad chords and their construction is fairly simple. just use every other note

Em would be
E G B

F#dim would be
F# A B

G Major
G B D

do you see the pattern? just using every other note to get a three note chord that fits in the key you're in

it's always best to start small. in this case, 3 string sweeps
here's one i use a lot. it's just an Em arpeggio (E G B are the only notes used)


l---------7h12p7-----------------------------------------l
l------8----------8---------------------------------------l
l---9---------------9-------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l

start slowly and practice (ideally with a metronome) until you can play this fluidly and sound every note clearly.

here's a run based on inverted chords (the root is not the lowest note) but still only using 3 note chords



.............. Em ................................ D

l----------15h19p15------------------14h17p14---------l
l------17-------------17----------15------------15------l
l--16---------------------16--14--------------------14--l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l


............... C ............................. D

l---------12h15p12------------------14h17p14----------l
l-----13-------------13----------15------------15-------l
l-12---------------------12--14--------------------14---l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l


i find the easiest way to play 5 string sweeps is to think in terms of triad chord shapes.

....Em ..... D ...... C
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l
l--16------14------12------------------------------------l
l--17------16------14----------------------------------l
l--19------17------15----------------------------------l
l---------------------------------------------------------l

as you can see you just add these shapes to the run i just showed you

Em

l-----------------15h19p15-------------------------------l
l-------------17-------------17---------------------------l
l---------16---------------------16-----------------------l
l-----17-----------------------------17-------------------
l-19-------------------------------------19---------------
l----------------------------------------------------------l


D

l------------------14h17p14--------------------------------------l
l--------------15------------15--------------------------------l
l----------14-------------------14-----------------------------l
l------16--------------------------16-------------------------l
l--17---------------------------------17-----------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l

these are the shapes for major and minor arpeggios and can be moved up and down the neck just like a regular chord.

as an added bonus heres the shape for the F# diminished (f# is the oddball in the Em key)

l----------5h8p5----------------------------------------------l
l--------7------- 7------------------------------------------l
l------5------------5----------------------------------------l
l----7----------------7--------------------------------------l
l--9--------------------9------------------------------------l
l----------------------------------------------------------l



you can also base arpeggios on barre chord shapes

Em .................................................... G

l---------7h12p7-------------------------10h15p10--------------l
l-------8---------8--------------------12-----------12-----------l
l-----9-------------9---------------12-----------------12--------l
l---9-----------------9----------12-----------------------12-----l
l-7---------------------7-----10-----------------------------10--l
l------------------------------------------------------------------l

I like to add a 7th to these shapes. constructing a 7th chord is just like constructing a major or minor except you add one more note using the skip every other note in the scale method i talked about earlier. this can also negate the big stretch on the high string.

something like this

Em7 ........................... or

l-----------7h10p7---------------------7h10p7---------l
l---------8---------8------------------8---------8-------l
l-------9------------9----------------7-----------7------l
l------9---------------9-------------9-------------9-----l
l-7h10-----------------10-----7h10----------------10--l
l----------------------------------------------------------l


G7 .................................. or

l-------------10h14p10----------------------10h14p10--------l
l-----------12---------12-------------------12---------12------l
l---------12-------------12---------------11-------------11----l
l-------12-----------------12-----------12-----------------12--l
l-10h13--------------------10----10h13---------------------10l
l-----------------------------------------------------------------l


when playing the consecutive notes on the 12th fret, 'roll' your finger (from tip to pad) down the strings to kill the notes after they sound, you're not wanting to let the notes ring.

by no means are these the only way to do sweeps, but they are pretty ubiquitous, and now you may have a little better idea of how to come up with your own stuff


Which shapes to use and still be in key

E F# G A B C D
m dim M m m M M

this pattern works in any minor key and the same chords work in the relative major

Am key would be

A Bdim C Dm Em F G




I make no claim to be great at sweep picking or music theory, and there are many people on here that are better players, know more theory, and are better teachers, but hopefully some of you find this useful.

if anybody finds any mistakes, please let me know.

Hi All,

I'm confused. This might be simple, and thus a stupid question, but I've never been formally taught and this just caught me out.

I noticed this sort of thing in tab books:


C#5

-----------9--------------------------------------------
---12^------12p9-10p9-------9--------------------
-----------------------------12-----12p9------------
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------

What I'm confused by the C#5 above the measure. Does this refer to the backing chord, or the scale that the lick is based on? How do you break up a lick like that and determine that it does indeed fit with the backing chords?

My inability to understand this sort of thing probably explains why I can play solos and not write them. I always get the feeling this is really obvious to other musicians yet I am totally baffled.

Dos anyone have a tab of guitar pro tab for %$#@! you from damageplan??

thnx

Does anyone out there have a transposed list of Lyrics with Chords or Tab for Lucretia MacEvil by Blood Sweat and Tears. I have looked all over for a TAB or just the Chord progression for this song. If you know where I can download one or have one you can email me I would greatly appreciate it.

Bob

Hey everyone, hope all is well!

Gonna cut to the chase:

I dont know any theory atall, i started guitar because i wanted a pass time. I grew dependant on using tabs and general goofing around. I have been playing for 3 years or so, and i can play loads of songs and solo's etc. AS LONG AS I HAVE A TAB

Now i am wanting to learn theory, a few years ago i learned a few scales, but i used them purely as a playing exercise and to develop my alternate picking etc. I also know several chords etc. etc.


Thing is, i have never had a guitar lesson in my life, i have never had a music lesson in my life. I want to self teach myself theory as lessons are not a luxury that i can afford right now (never mind a Dean ). So im wondering if any of you guys here can give me some tips, websites or books that i should be looking at? And what all topics should i be looking into? Start off with..... etc.


Thanks guys/gal's

Hi.

Got myself a Laney GH 100 TI half stack as a trade and I'm trying to use its slave feature, but I have trouble doing it.

Basically what I want to do:

Guitar->engl E 530->Laney slave in for Power amp -> Cab. (that's the simple version, once that works I have something else to do with it.

I have a multi effect in the preamp effects loop and it registers the guitar level. Seems ok up to there.

Had the preamp perfectly working so far plugged in my sound card, only difference is I'm using a mono jack while I used stereo ones.

There is this in the manual:

"If you are using the amp to drive just
one speaker cabinet, connect only one stereo channel via a 1/4" stereo plug. A mono
1/4" plug will short-circuit the poweramp's second channel. If you operate the amp
under these conditions at high volumes for a longer period of time, this may destroy
the amp or other components!"

What do they mean by "just one speaker cab?" I'd try with a stereo cable, the issue is, all the stereo cable I have is very short and not long enough to do the rack->head distance. Could this be the issue ?

Ok I am a frackin Metallica freak, and I am currently working on learning MASTER OF PUPPETS...I have the tab book for the album and the main parts of the song memorized up until the chorus..only problem is that the song is 220 bpm and i cant move my picking hand that fast in sync with my fingering hand....Any tips, personal warm-ups/practicing practices that you guys would recommend? As of right now, I have no warm up routine or any thing, I just pickup my Dime-O-Flage and start playing...Thanx All

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/w/whitechapel/the_somatic_defilement_ver2_guitar_pro.htm

It starts at measure 100
Can anybody help?
I can do it really slow, but once I go alittle faster, my picking hand messes up.

Thanks,
Justin

hey guys i was wondering if use can help me on some tab help im stuck on a part on this lick i cant get. its the third video where kirk is doing his thing between 17 and 21 seconds http://www.guitarworld.com/down_lesson if some one could tab that for i would reallly appreciate it im in c# tuning

... by the biggest dummy..

This is for those of you who feel you know absolutely nothing about music theory. There is already some great stuff in this thread http://www.deanguitars.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49424, but I thought I'd try to go though the most basic stuff and then go from there (I'm gonna have to take a couple of peeks in my books ).

Here goes..

So you might have heard that there are 12 notes in (western) music. They are:
C
C# or Db
D
D# or Eb
E
F
F# or Gb
G
G# or Ab
A
A# or Bb
B
(and then back to C).

#= sharp
b= flat

(Notice that there are not sharps and flats between E and F and B and C)

The "interval" in between any two consecutive notes is called one semitone. So for example C - Db is one semitone. Two semitones add up to one "tone".

Alright, I think we're ready to start looking at a scale. Let's start with C major (huge surprise, I know..).

So the C major scale goes like this: C - D - E - F - G - A - B - C
Notice that there are no sharps or flats? Kinda hard to miss. Anyway, that's why the C major scale is such a good example to start out with. (Also note that all of the seven letters were used!)

Let's take a look at the intervals. We have one tone between almost all the notes. The exceptions are E and F and B and C, which are separated by one semitone. With that we can create a sort of formula of how to write any major scale. So with 2 representing a tone and 1 a semitone our formula would look like this: 2 - 2 - 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 1

We now have all we need to write any major scale down: We know the intervals between all the 12 notes (right? ), we have our little formula and we know that we must use all the seven letters.

So let's give it a shot to write for example the A major scale.

That means A is gonna be our first letter, followed by B, C, D, E, F, G and then A again.

OK:
A, then one tone which takes us to B. The next letter is C, but remember; the interval between B and C is just a semitone and for our major scale we need to have a tone. That means we have to raise our C one semitone to C#. Our next letter is D and the interval according to our formula should be one semitone. How convenient that our C i raised exactly one semitone! Think you can figure out the rest by yourselves?

Here's the complete scale: A - B - C# - D - E - F# - G# - A

Alright, I'm gonna have to a continue this another time, it's 3am over here and I'm getting dumber by the minute.
Any questions? Post 'em up and I'll try to answer them. I'm sure some of our other forum smartasses will help those of you who need it as well.

Oh, if anyone notices a mistake, please point it out so I can edit the crap out of it!

I've always written it

F#, G#, A#, B, C#, D#, F

and i read somewhere recently that you don't use the same letter twice (F and F#) in writing a major scale

going for Gb doesnt work either because you end up with Bb and B

would the correct way be to use E# or Cb?

I know it doesnt really matter, but im curious

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UtaTz1fShY
Here it is. Was recorded in a hurry, with a crappy webcam mic with audacity. Hopefully it gives you, the people reading this, an impression of how it works to thicken your sound. I get out of time a few times, but nontheless, good enough.

I've been (slowly) trying to learn theory but modes have eluded me. This seems to make sense

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKbPIGnqt80&feature=fvw

What are some good exercises for warming up?

Seems that I can't function properly until I get to the 2nd set. I'm not playing bad in the 1st set, but I don't find my "zone" or groove until the 2nd set.

I"m looking for ideas, chromatic runs, finger stretching exercises, dexterity building exercises, synchronizing pick and fret hands.

What you got?

So one of my friends asked me a few weeks ago if I could give him a few lessons on playing acoustic. I'm not the most experienced guy on acoustic (about two years, have been playing electric for about 6 years), but I can hold my own.

What is the best way to start? I started by showing him a few basic chords, G, D, C, A, B. Also a few ways to hold the pick. I'm not sure if this is the right way to go about it, or if I should first teach him the fretboard so he knows what each note is and where the chord comes from? I know what I want to do, but I don't know the right way to make someone else do it.

Whoever has taught before, I could use some help.

I think this would be a good idea to post anything that you think might help someone out or post a cool lick

Can you guys give me some shred guitar scales/Lead guitar scales?I am in need.

Geet PHUCK

I'm not even familiar with the scales he was playing in,what was that anyway?A Bm?

Ok, I'm sorry for posting this after only joining the forum so shortly, but I just went through three pages worth of this blog and I can't find the answer to this specific question.

I was thankfully helped by someone after joining and posting my greetings, and he (just assuming if its not a he I'm sorry) said that modes are movable, but shapes are not.

So, I know all seven root six string modes they way I learned them off the Rusty Cooley DVD, I know the shape for A Dorian, what shape would be F Dorian?

Thanks in advanced and hello, I know I'm strange and Californian, don't blame me it's the the sun slowly cooking my mind.
