  • These simple suggestions will help you break out of the pentatonic scale by harmonizing melodies on the guitar using thirds, and Jimi Hendrix style double stops -- play two notes at once, easily!
    Are your guitar solos and improv all sounding the same? Feeling stuck in the pentatonic scale? Double Stops are a quick and easy way of playing bigger, two-note at the same time licks in your solos. And they are an essential guitar technique. They help our lines sound more connected with the chords underneath.
    Some of the Tabs are available FREE on my website

    Here's the best thing about GLV channel. It teaches music theory without actually discussing much theory! It encourages actual playing and understanding the theory while playing. Thank you 🥰

    Having played guitar for many years.
    Still I got inspired in some way. And that's a good thing.
    It wasn't the lesson in itself that got me to reach for the guitar, I think it was that you actually play more than talking.
    I think that that's what a good teacher does? Let the student listen to the tones more than learning the theory behind it.

  • @WeyounSix
    @WeyounSix 10 місяців тому

    Before I watch the rest of this video, I just wanna say after seeing your previous video and then this, this is exactly the type of guitar content I need. I can make the use of SOME mixed notes when I play my solos, but it's pretty limited to sus2's and sus4s when Im playing basic triads. I feel like I'm in this weird limbo between intermediate and novice because I can play most things if I really try to learn it and know a decent amount of theory and can write my own solos and songs and riffs, but there's just something missing still I can't find. Even when I play other scales outside the pentatonic rut, I find myself going back anyway because of my blues roots. There's just something so sweet about those shapes, but I wish I had more versatility with that, such as what you're showing in this video. I'm gonna be checking out more of your videos after this one too. Cheers

Wondering if you can share a link to the video of you performing (clip at the beginning of this lesson) - I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be happy to get more of your playing and also support whatever channel that might be on.

    • @GuitarLessonsVancouver
      @GuitarLessonsVancouver  11 місяців тому +2

      Thanks! Yeah there's not much online of me playing. For performing I've been working as a hired guitar for www.taylorraeofficial.com for about 5 years or so. There are clips here and there but I don't think she has much full-song live stuff online. The clips in my recent videos are just from a recent gig. I just set my camera on the floor in front of us to get some clips, but the audio is terrible because it was just the camera mic. It's hard to get good audio unless you are planning that all in advance. Normally we play at festivals so that's not really possible. I'll ask Taylor if we can do something like that this year.

    I don't understand. When you hammer on 5 to 7, those 7s aren't in the c pentatonic, except on the g string. The others You'd have to hammer on to 8 to stay in pentatonic.

      The double stops come from tge full C Major scale. Remember Pentatonic is a 5-note version of the full 7 note scale.
