I have such a good feeling within this year your channel will hit that snowball point. You're an incredible teacher and I feel like your knowledge is infinite. Superb entertainment all around as always! Thank you for your time good sir!
@@ShredmasterScott I would like to add to this. I have been playing for half of my life with 2 scales. After watching your Bach/Fugue series, finally all that elementary level theory made sense. For roughly a year now, I have been diving head first into theory and have made great progress because of those videos. Keep it up dude!
I’ve only watched 2 of your videos and I am already deciding that I am going to subscribe. I have never came across a channel that can make me laugh and learn at the same time like yours. I’ll be binge watching your videos for the rest of the night. Cheers man, and thank you for the knowledge🍻
To me, as I said on Ola Englund his page, you and Ola are complementairy to learn the guitar in a decent and a Metal-hilarious way. Therefor I'm already glad to find soul related instructors on the net, but Ola testing the gear and you explaining the properties of music on it's own, yeah a perfect match. Snap, you guys could do a stupendously great clip together.
@@PrometheusDigital , pure playing wise then? There's also 'Bernth', You'll recognise him speaking English with a heavy German accent and plays guitar like Hell! Greets from Belgium!
I’ve always felt that playing only neoclassical can be limiting in what emotions you’re expressing. Should probably be used, in my opinion, for sections of songs rather than a full neoclassical album because it has the potential to become very redundant. There are, of course, methods to avoid this problem. Just my take on neoclassical.
Marksman1107 I agree, a good example is the final countdown solo that definitely doubles down on neoclassical progressions for that particular section. But the novelty is also in the key change for the solo. Either way it makes it rewarding when it goes back to the classic minor key trumpet hook.
great video. my takeaways today to work with are that 5 on 5 chord progression for the double resolution and also arpeggiated chords up the 3 octaves. that sounds so nice. why I have never worked on that is crazy. I practice those on the 88keyboard all the way up and down, yet I never crossed that over to the guitar. scales and shapes yes, but not just pure chords...wtf.... Also, that neopolitan helps with great walking bass note runs when I need just that one more coherent step in there, so I have been working with that a lot since that other video.
Thank you so much 🤘🤘 And I hope we will see more about neoclassical metal music And I hope you will talk more about metal sounds (like devil intervals..) in classic music..
This might be a) completely off-topic, and b) impossible - but you and Ben Eller need to have a baby that becomes the ultimate shredder. You'll have to work out the finer details of how that will happen between yourselves. Good luck
teaches neoclassical harmony, puts it in proper black and white that a real musician could sight read. *this guitar is half-step down and still calls it Am* there it is! god forbid guitar players work in flat and sharp keys. *PTSD flashbacks to highschool jazz band*
SHRED, you forgot to explain the Italian 6, german 6, chords in classical music they used them often, not sure how they used them. Also the V chord in natural minor is a V dominant or Major chord and the V chord in harmonic minor is the same thing its a V dominant or Major chord there is no difference because a V chord used in natural minor or in harmonic minor
On the second topic: the V of matural minor is the 5th FROM the tonic's point of view. In C key: The A minor (natural minor, aeolian mode, 6th mode) is 6th, with the V7 as you say. But from the A minor's point of view (aeolian mode) the 5th from there is e; AbcdEfg, another minor. So he take's the 6ths 5th and makes it major with the dominant 7, which wants to pull strongly back to the tonic, A, as if it were actually A major instead. It resolves stronger than the 'diatonically correct' minor 7 chord would have.
SHRED , the Cadential 6/4 is always the i chord in 2nd inversion? the Cadential 6/4 is never the IV chord or V chord only the I chord?The Neapolitan so a half step up from the I chord is 100% out of key that's a chromatic out of key chord, not sure how they used this in classical to make it sound like its in the key center.
The Neapolitan is just Harmonic min b2 or Phrygian Maj7 or dorian b2, Maj7.... The MODE for the b2 chord is Lydian #6 or Lyd #5, #6 From A min...it's Bb lydian #6 or lydian #5, #6 D double harmonic min = Bb Lydian #2, #6 D Harmonic min b5 = Bb lydian #2, b7 ( mix #2, #4) In a nut shell you can alter Bb to the whatever the FU$K chord.lmao You could apply it After MAJOR's ( Db) tonic or minor's TONIC Well lets just apply it after each minor . A Harmonic min b2 D melodic min b2..... ( you have a problem playing D dorian with a maj7?? WHY? E min....phy... or fu4k it...play D dorian b2, #4 :-P ( A Harmonic min b5) well if you play C melodic min....it's A aeo b5.....you have a problem playing Maj7????? WHY??? lmao You could make the F lydian #2, b7...as F min7 or F7... If you play A melodic min,,,,it;s A min D7. E7. so this way you can play the b2 after all the minor chords. B min?...it could be B dorian b2,,,if you count from A melodic min.lmao Fu4k it.....let keep this shiet SIMPLE...Play the b2 after whatever chord. be it Maj or min.... You can make the b2 chord maj7. dominant. aug, dim. min7 min/maj7 even if you use the F lydian #2 or F lydian b3....you can still make it F min.. Play C Maj into F min7 chord.... Then just play the Gb and Ab....with your other finger. Then Play G7 into C MAJOR Or Play C Maj into F min Bb Min....then just play the Db with your pinky.lmao The Ab G7 into C MAJOR or C Maj into F min Bb min C min/ Eb...C min/Db..lmao or A min Bb7 C7 into F melodic min or A min Bb7 into Eb MAj C min G min F min E7 into A min. will shiet... F Maj...F# dim..G Maj G# dim into A min....that's lessons from 10 years ago.lmao. Lets do this for 2020. A min BbMaj....Eb Maj D dim, B dim into C Maj into F min Bb dim into B min E7 into A min...lmao

Marksman1107 well that’s where the “neo” part comes in. Toss in some other musical elements to avoid sounding one dimensional
Shred and this channel is definitely the best place to go to learn said musical elements.

Dude if I could spend a week talking to you about this in person this would be better. Keep up the awesome shred
My guitar is made from old Ouija boards for that necromantic tone so essential to achieving maximal paranormal wickedness. Women love it.
Atlanta Guitar that’s what I like to hear 🤘🎸
It's great to see your hybrid picking techniques combined with your theory knowledge. Diabolical Hails SO HARD 🤘🏻
Shred is a beast! First minute in and I’m using my full brain already!
jimrox9000 excellent 🤘
I like the cadential 6/4 chord idea. I don't hear people talk about that very much. Killer Lesson!
Also, maybe you should do a video on "Figured Bass" which is similar to your cadential 6/4 chord idea.
Sounds amazing
Dam Yankee 1989 🙏
Final Bowser from Super Mario 64 is one of my favorite but difficult pieces to play on guitar. It's so awesome!
Can you make a song in the style of death in the symbolic era
Keep this stuff coming shred! My favorite topic by far.
Great lesson
Shred is the perfect youtuber

I think for example a a# c d e f g# a
I need this and any additional information that you wish to share. Thank you very much.
Timmy Spencer there will be more Timmy 🤘
Can you please check into the band 'Persefone'?
Youd really love their writing style. For real.
You wont regret it.
Thanks
Great channel bro love it!!!
You're an amazing teacher
I wish Bach was a metal head... Oh well, we have Tuomas from Nightwish for these intricate and pleasing chords 🤘
Thank you so much 🤘🤘

"Come on guys it's not rocket science " I'm pretty positive rocket science is easier
I didn't see a brand or logo on the Classical guitar that you played in the video. What kind is it?
Wow.
Which program do you use to make the tabs???
Hey shred which program do you use to write the notation and it plays it in midi? Thanks you rock dude
I'm pretty sure it's guitar pro. Whether it's gp6 or gp7 is beyond me. I use gp5.
Shred, ever dealt with tendonitis? Great vid
Yes...and also nerve damage
@@ShredmasterScott shit blows, thanks for the reply tho
Hey Shred! Are your nails natural or do you use glue-on for the right hand?
J.S. Bach
What does this mean? so for example you had Am/C does that mean it’s an a minor chord with a C?
Means an Am with a C in the bass.
Great instructional videos man. Informative and entertaining. Hail Satan (and Hydra).

You’re right. I’ll put aug 6th chords in the next one
Thanks that would be great to explain more about the augment 6th chords and augment classical theory

The Neapolitan is just Harmonic min b2 or Phrygian Maj7
or dorian b2, Maj7....
The MODE for the b2 chord is Lydian #6 or Lyd #5, #6
From A min...it's Bb lydian #6 or lydian #5, #6
D double harmonic min = Bb Lydian #2, #6
D Harmonic min b5 = Bb lydian #2, b7 ( mix #2, #4)
In a nut shell you can alter Bb to the whatever the FU$K chord.lmao
You could apply it After MAJOR's ( Db) tonic or minor's TONIC
Well lets just apply it after each minor .
A Harmonic min b2
D melodic min b2..... ( you have a problem playing D dorian with a maj7?? WHY?
E min....phy...
or fu4k it...play D dorian b2, #4 :-P ( A Harmonic min b5)
well if you play C melodic min....it's A aeo b5.....you have a problem playing Maj7????? WHY??? lmao
You could make the F lydian #2, b7...as F min7 or F7...
If you play A melodic min,,,,it;s A min D7. E7.
so this way you can play the b2 after all the minor chords.
B min?...it could be B dorian b2,,,if you count from A melodic min.lmao
Fu4k it.....let keep this shiet SIMPLE...Play the b2 after whatever chord.
be it Maj or min....
You can make the b2 chord maj7. dominant. aug, dim. min7 min/maj7
even if you use the F lydian #2 or F lydian b3....you can still make it F min..
Play C Maj into F min7 chord....
Then just play the Gb and Ab....with your other finger.
Then Play G7 into C MAJOR

The Ab G7 into C MAJOR
