    A lesson in Guitar Techniques magazine required me to understand and recognise 3rd, 4th and 6th double stops, so I turned to UA-cam. Your video was the first I found and answered it perfectly. I look forward to practicing all these. Thank you for this!

    Hi Jack, What a fabulous lesson. Why, when playing 4ths, does the fingering change on the F? I noticed that it doesn't follow the same pattern as the other notes in the diatonic scale. It looks like an augmented 4th (or one fret higher than the fourth). Thanks

    can the double stop 6th be considered as a double stop 3rd inversion of its relative minor chord? like C with A is 6th, A with a C is a minor 3rd? cos the first shape you showed as a C double stop 6th sounds more minor than major. or it could be just me haha.

    • @jfar3340
      @jfar3340 2 роки тому +1

      Absolutely, when you're playing intervals that when added amount to 9 (ex a 3rd+a 6th), one is always the minor and the other major. A to C is a minor 3rd, C to A is a ''major 6th''. In practice, the 6th degree is more often referred to as 13 (and flat/sharp 13), this scale degree (not necessarily interval, a confusion that seems to be widespread in guitar videos on youtube even by experienced players) is seen as an extension more often than not.

    • @RBZ3
      @RBZ3 2 роки тому

      Although he was starting with an A over a C that is actually the minor 6th of the A note in the scale. The major 6th with the C on top and E in the base is considered the major 6th.

    Lots of conversation and confusion about major/minor intervals, inverted intervals and how it all works. This is because most amateur guitar players are self taught, care little about what notes they play (mostly care about shapes and playing by ''ear'' or ''feel'' wtv that means for them). All this confusion can be cleared up by studying basic music theory, the kind of music theory people learn in high school.

  • @RedLion88
    @RedLion88 2 роки тому

    A little tricky. I felt like I had to be aware that Dorian has a major 6th to know that the 6th above D while also diatonic to C has to be a major 6th and not a minor 6th even though D minor is the 2nd chord.

    • @jfar3340
      @jfar3340 2 роки тому +1

      Aren't you complicating things a bit here? Everything is diatonic to C major here so no sharps or flat, no need to think in modes. When you're harmonizing your major scale in 6th and starting from the D note, your 6th is your B, no sharp no flat.

    • @RedLion88
      @RedLion88 2 роки тому

      @@jfar3340 I don’t find it complicated. Yes D’s 6th is B as long as D is major or Dorian. If this was a D in the key of F or Bb then one needs to know that the 6th is now minor and would be a Bb. Not important for memorizing these shapes but still interesting.

    • @jfar3340
      @jfar3340 2 роки тому +1

      @@RedLion88 No I'm not saying you found it complicated, I said that you're complicating things by thinking in terms of mode, which is not wrong per se. I'm going to use your example: you are harmonizing F major in 6th intervals, then when you're playing your 6th interval its D-Bb, not primarily because I know that D is aeolian in the key of F which has a flat 6, simply because I know that B is flat in the key of F major. In this case, when harmonizing a scale in a given interval, thinking in terms of key signature instead of modes for every single interval is, in my opinion, simpler.

    double stops a wonderful way for the less talented player to play "Songs" on the guitar, so much better than playing single string melodies. Learn the double stops in G and you can play hundreds of songs and sound like you know what your doing....Try Proud Mary with double notes and those 4 or 5 notes sound 100% better than just playing single string melodies.

      It’s because we’re harmonizing a scale. When you harmonize the major scale in 4ths, this is how it lays out.
