In this guitar lesson Rock House instructor Rusty Cooley talks about 12 Not Split Patterns. Lesson comes from his Rock House program Fretboard Autopsy Level 1.
I totally agree with you. Rusty is just a genius when it comes to explaining as well as demonstrating ideas. He truly has the heart of a teacher. It's not about what he can do. It's about others understanding the ideas and how to impliment them into their playing.
just got this video. Gotta say, it has no filler. Just the mode patterns and then gets you moving up and down the fretboard. Awesome to the point instruction, looking forward to part 2
@4517734 Before dispensing advice, you have to consider what you see here is part of a full program, you are only getting one sample lessons. Rusty explains in the begining of this program how he tunes a half step down and states that he will be referencing everything as if he is in standard tuning. This is why he asks everyone to tune to his tuning at the very beginning so they can play along.
@jessbpowers The locrian mode is the 7th mode, built from the 7th tone of the major scale. This is effectively a minor mode because the chord built from the 7th tone of the major scale is a min7flat5 chord. It is sort of correct to refer to it as a minor mode, but its really a half-diminished mode. Also, the 2nd which is Dorian, the 3rd Phrygian and the 6th Aeolian are minor. Hope that helps.
@jessbpowers The major scale is ionian. It was still in A major, he just moved up on the fretboard out of the original shape still using the notes in A major. Hope this helped, but it prolly didnt cause i didnt explain it well at all =P
It says level 1, I don't know what you're talking about... NAHH I just kidding, looks like I messed up when I posted this. Thanks for catching it, I made the change. Hey send me a message and I'll send you another RH video for free as a thank you. GOOD LOOKING OUT!
@devvilboyy676767 No, these exercises never fit in a musical contest, thats why rusty cooley is a guitar virtuoso and not a musician. That's very common today, people know how to play, but not how to put it to good usage, sad but true.
Gmajor and A Dorian are the same thing, they just start one note of from each other. I don't mean to criticize, he does do an excellent job, and he's amazing. His legato fret hand hammer oning is amazing!!!
i dont think he forgot. im pretty sure he doesnt want to sit there play at everyone elses speed so he shows you slow then it does it fast to show you how to rip
@YogSothothOfGuitars you know they probley said the same thing about yngwie or holdsworth or shawn lane at one point so you know what just wait until he's dead or done making music to judge his playing because you dont have the technical skill he does or the endorsements he does damn it.... every person has their own thing just respect it
wait... i thought locrian was the major scale.... i do not know my modes very well at all but can someone explain how major is minor? i would think he would call it natural minor if it was just minor and not locrian minor, cause from what i know about modes he just said "major minor" im confused.....
@deathmetalguitaristx They're all designed to be fast or extremely complex. Take Alexi's for example, it's really simple and is definitely not anything new or innovative yet everyone knows he's capable of much much more.
@oilers1go1 What's the big deal brother? Guitarists aren't allowed to sound like those who influenced them anymore? Besides, Govan, Gilbert & Rusty are all contemporaries. Each of them could probably teach the others something they don't know.
Govan, Holdsworth, Malmsteen, and Gilbert all still put this guy to shame. They were doing this stuff 15 years ago. You're doing nothing new, nor better.

his legato is phenomenal :P

Very sweetlesson, I loved it.
this is exactly how I taught myself!!!!! OMG this is awesome I'm glad I did it his way lets put it like that!
I can't be the only one who is driven nuts by how keeps assigning major and minor to his mode names, right?
he's a great teacher...
this will deffinetlly help...

i love the tone!! sounds really deep

the concept is pretty easy, his skill and execution- Epic.
@4517734 when people are referring to what positions it would be in standard tuning it's called "concert" so he is playing a G Major Scale "Concert"
@jessbpowers The major scale is ionian. It was still in A major, he just moved up on the fretboard out of the original shape still using the notes in A major. Hope this helped, but it prolly didnt cause i didnt explain it well at all =P
got vol 1 and 2 ... amazing stuff !!
greetings from germany :-)

i Just love his guitar... and this was a good lesson :o
The first scale thingy he does is used in Mr. Crowley. Cept he starts on F (1st fret).
Love that Dean guitar!

omg i cant wait for ARPEGGIO MADNESS!!!!!!
@DemonofShadowFin I totally agree not a lot of syncopation...in fact no syncopation at all...
i dont think he forgot. im pretty sure he doesnt want to sit there play at everyone elses speed so he shows you slow then it does it fast to show you how to rip
no its just B standard....unless he tunes half step down.
and this lesson is awesome!
Gee! Great! But how and when do/can use this over a progression?
oh my effing god...i'm buying this tomorrow
"I. thanatos" by outworld which is rustys band if you didnt know
@YogSothothOfGuitars you know they probley said the same thing about yngwie or holdsworth or shawn lane at one point so you know what just wait until he's dead or done making music to judge his playing because you dont have the technical skill he does or the endorsements he does damn it.... every person has their own thing just respect it
@guiiimoraes dude he does alternate picking,sweep picking,multi finger tapping and ive even seen him do chicken picking! :D
@therockhouse also at the beginning it shows the cover for level 2 also. I doubt you'll want to fix that, just noticed it thats all
What song is that at the begining when its showing the pictures?
view 99
@4517734 he probably tuned his guitar down a half-step. slash, hendrix, and Vaughn use that tuning all the time.
@psychosuey just do one scale up and down full speed for every song all the time, its what the kids are doing nowadays.
wait... i thought locrian was the major scale.... i do not know my modes very well at all but can someone explain how major is minor? i would think he would call it natural minor if it was just minor and not locrian minor, cause from what i know about modes he just said "major minor"
im confused.....
I always look at this DVD and end up never getting it, why the hell haven't I gotten this yet? Who the hell wouldn't want to play like Rusty hahaha.
@devvilboyy676767 YES YOU ARE
He usually plays in Eb I believe
Niot true at all in fact he just posted a piece on the rock house blog of him doing some really cool jazz piece.
@poplepo3
He plays them slow first...?
hey, none of the shops where i live sell these dvds, can you only buy them on the internet? if so, can you use a 3v card to buy them?
Can anyone give me the link to these backing tracks? thanks! what's up witht he numbers on rustys guitar?!
maybe within key, but not at all within the timing.
@deathmetalguitaristx
They're all designed to be fast or extremely complex.
Take Alexi's for example, it's really simple and is definitely not anything new or innovative yet everyone knows he's capable of much much more.
is there a lesson? where he shows you the paterns, he uses when he plays really fast.??
How can I build my speed when doing these modes?
what tuning is this madman in?
you should have a lesson with kris norris
@devvilboyy676767 no it doesnt match. but he is just playing scales up and down so its not going to.
@oilers1go1 What's the big deal brother? Guitarists aren't allowed to sound like those who influenced them anymore? Besides, Govan, Gilbert & Rusty are all contemporaries. Each of them could probably teach the others something they don't know.
I thantos by outworld
am I the only one who thinks that what he's playing doesn't match the backing track?
@Cavemanseizure
dorian is a minor mode...
i played his guitar at a SamAsh. I was disappointed. Munky's 7 string was freakin sick, much better than his.
No you're not, I agree with you and so do at least 90 other people!!!
@therockhouse
He's really not... I make the nineteenth person. lol
I think he means it just feels wrong for that kind of backing track.
this is hilarious when he plays fast
@therockhouse
calm down, dude. jeez....
I still think it doesn't match :P
that backing track isn't matching his speed. did he choose this?
Se ve tan simple, pero es mas pelua q la cresta
i think he forgot that most people cant play that up to his speed
Quite possibly, it sounds completely within key to me.
@therockhouse no he is not!
@therockhouse Nope, he isn´t
1st veiw woo
wtf?! this is level1? i guess this is level one after you finish all the other rockhouse dvds. lol
OMFG ude is super fast lol
these exercises........ they hurts me.........
If you give him a coconut...
he will break it into pieces using only his left hand..
@devvilboyy676767 No man,the backing track cant match his shredding...
@therockhouse no, he isn't.
rustey cooley is beyond sickness... too bad he plays in a power metal band -.-'''
@therockhouse NO HE'S NOT
aww lay of rusty cooley, hes a decent shredder and there are hundreds of thousands of worse guitarists out there...he's just playing what he likes
I think his Ibanez was/is better
rusty cooley?power metal?lol you named yourself dean and you dont know what music is he into?
Rusty is awesome guitar player,but very bad teacher!
you're kidding right?
... THAT BACKING TRACK DOESNT HELP SHIT XD
Govan, Holdsworth, Malmsteen, and Gilbert all still put this guy to shame. They were doing this stuff 15 years ago. You're doing nothing new, nor better.
