    • @Moveforwardguitar
      @Moveforwardguitar  6 років тому

      Yes but not all of the notes sound strong over every chord. That's where understanding arpeggios and landing tones is really important. But for starting out you can just use the notes of the Gm scale and use your ears. All the notes are useable it's just that some sound stronger than others depending on the chord you're playing over. Thanks! -Chad

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!
    One question... If I'm trying to creat something... Should I choose the scale first and then the chords?, or Should I choose the chords and then the scale? I saw you used G-D-Em chords and all those chords have notes in G maj scale... So I don't know which one is most important I'm a little bit confused...
    Greetings from Chile!

    • @davidjana
      @davidjana 4 роки тому

      I'm watching the next video and it seems the answer is there! The scale will tell me which notes I can pick to my chords!

    • @Moveforwardguitar
      @Moveforwardguitar  4 роки тому +1

      You can do it either way but it's usually a little harder to start with the scale. So if you start with a chord progression like G-D-Em you can play notes from the G Major scale over each chord and see what sounds good to you. You can also play G Maj pentatonic scale over the G, D Maj pentatonic over the D, and Em pentatonic over the Em. Doing that will give you really strong sounding notes over each chord. Thanks! -Chad

    • @jamessbca
      @jamessbca 7 років тому +2

      Hey Steve,
      The major scale is always Whole, Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Half.
      I've been really learning this stuff myself the past few months.
      It helps me to think of the piano keyboard (and I don't play piano, but we have all seen the keyboard). In the C major scale, B and C are "smashed together" - just 1/2 step. (this works starting on the C on the piano).
      As soon as you start on a different piano key, you start getting sharps and flats, etc. You stick with Whole, Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Half. But now you have sharps and flats...
