Tim, when you taught me at Berklee, I was severely mentally ill and unfortunately couldn't focus on music. But nothing is wasted, and I find myself even 25 years later still benefiting from the seeds you and others planted. Interestingly, like you, I've always been drawn to the idea of using simple shapes like triads and finding all sorts of ways to superimpose them. These shapes are familiar and have been for many centuries, so using them to create melodies is natural.
i spend a lot of time over alt V chords. some of these are new, to me, although they should've been obvious. that's some excellent teaching! thanks! now i have even more colors to add to my palette!
Mr Miller; the lesson is extremely useful, my thanks. However, I’m very impressed with the lovely, airy tone. The sensitive approach to technique and vibrato are also clearly demonstrated and hugely appreciable. I’m new to your playing, and was drawn in by the similarities with Allan Holdsworth, whom I’ve been overwhelmed by since 1977. This to say, I thank you greatly for making this style a starting off point for personal development and exploration. I hope it leads to a full field of guitar vocabulary and approach. Cheers
This is so well presented! Mysterious and beautiful place to spend time harmonically. Thank you Tim. Altered Dominant sounds like some of the harmonies within the utterly cool theme song for the original TV series Get Smart. Could use chromatic lines too for tension. Very cool.

I thought you were about to play Final Fantasy - Prelude for a second there.
Haha I had that same thought :)
Yup, Major/add9 arpeggio. Good call.
Such an useful lesson.
Thank you.
Good stuff
the opening arpeggio was straight out of final fantasy
I was thinking minecraft
Nice,,
You know a cat can really play when his guitar doesn’t even have tuning pegs and he still manages to make it sound in tune!
Huh? Wha…woah!! The bridge. What will they think of next?
it's like a mix between Final Fantasy and Earthbound.
Or you could just learn the individual scales across the fretboard, and forget about all the rest.
