    I would like to see a simple lesson like this that combines some of the melody shown here while also continuing to play the underlying chords. I guess that would be a chord melody arrangement?

    Yur video on using the minor scale vs major scale I just seen a week or two ago and was the moment it finally clicked how they both work around a given key! And further how when playing lead to land those "key" notes in the beat to keep the solo in tune with the chords.
    I bought a looping machine a few weeks back for helping me practice my lead. I just got to trying it out last night setting up a simple bluesy E shuffle.. just staying on E. From there I could just pluck away improvising and landing on E. I sound like garbage but I've landed on E!!! Lol!
    I love listening to blues.. especially live! But for guitar I just can't put the blues to the strings yet. I'm trying! Lol!
    Thanks for the instruction!

    • @avaratz7879
      @avaratz7879 4 роки тому

      Tap your foot to the beat to get the bpm, time signature is learned just by listening really. Also, if you want to find the key of a song - just hum! Your brain nearly always picks the root note automatically.

      @avaratz7879 4 роки тому +1

      @@Gummigoo_under_the_map much easier to just use the tap feature on any metronome which will do the multiplication for you and give you a bpm.
