Much gratitude
Thanks for sharing you love of music and gifts of teaching
Great lesson David.
Such wonderful explanations of these concepts! Thanks!
What a great lesson. I've heard alot of these as part of the Fingerstyle Five membership, but its nice to have them in a concise video. I'll have to write them down and practice them in some of the common keys.
David is such an accomplished guitarist and these teachings are pure gold.
Thank you. Great lesson.
David, as always you make everything look so easy. One of your fingerings of the E with the G# bass i just couldnt do(you used your 1st, 2nd and 3rd fingers) but the development of things i already know with the stretch to the new is quite magical. Thankyou so much for taking the time to put this together.
Coolest traditional blues guitarist ever. Miss your performances at the Kerrville Folk Festival.
Chord substitutions are so fun to mess with if you don't let yourself get overwhelmed. You can play a little game with yourself called, what's a cool way to get to this chord. I like to start off in a key, say B minor. Maybe a simple 251. Turn that b minor into a dominant, taking me to E minor. E minor could be the 6 chord of G major, make that a 6251 haha. I don't know, its fun.
Fantastic lesson, thanks David
Excellent stuff
Im learning this now. Really fun. Thanks
Nice explanation. Thnx
that martin sounds AMAZING - what year? x
Maybe I haven't found it on Fretboard Confidential yet but I think a workshop on playing fingerstyle blues with a lot of root movement, walking bass, etc. would be great. Have you already done walking bass lessons or a workshop?
Within UA-cam, type "fretboard confidential walking bass" in the search bar and you'll find at least 4 lessons David did on walking bass. I LOVE that stuff. Enjoy.
I'd like that too :-)
Amazing as usual David. I do have a question on this:
If I'm playing with someone else, can I still use chord substitutions such as these, even if the other player does not? Will I clash with their playing (whether they're doing rhythm or soloing) ?
I'm thinking there's no clash, but want to check.
I'm definitely not David but have some perspective on this question :) At some point in the middle of this video he talks about the melody resting and the opportunity to add some color with the walk up on the low E string (B7/F#, E7/G#), etc. I think that's a brilliant insight into what you're asking, basically is it going to sound too busy or dissonant if I use these alternate voicings while playing with other musicians. I guess what I'm saying is if it gets too busy (too many notes all on top of each other) it's likely to clash, but the beauty of these traditional blues songs is that there's so much room for call and response, and these alternate voicings/chord substitutions make for wonderful ways to be musical.
Sorry for the long pondering here. Hope it helps!
P.S.: This collaboration shows some of these concepts in action: ua-cam.com/video/61FYVyukcTc/v-deo.html
@@markbrady7532 thanks for the input. I'm still not 100% sure as to the answer, but if I hear you right, you're sorry of saying "it works if it sounds good" :) I suppose I can try some substitutions and just listen.
