  • In this tutorial you’ll learn 3 very simple arpeggio shapes to create some very interesting and sophisticated sounds that you can use in Jazz, Fusion and Rock improvisations and compositions.
    The 3 shapes are based upon the Maj7, Maj7b5 or Maj7#11 and Maj7#5 arpeggio. Using them in the right way will enable you to play modal instantly. From simple major and minor sound to modes of the major scale (dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian and Locrian) to the beautiful modes of the melodic minor scale like Lydian augmented and Lydian dominant.

    At 6:20 you have an F natural labelled as an F# on the 3rd string, which is mixolydian.

    • @QJamTracks
      @QJamTracks  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It should be an F# in the 4th position, since it's G major.

      If I may add a word to this conversation started by Nerdburgler: Just keep doing what your doing. Your channel is in the process of becoming bigger than anyone can imagine. High quality (no matter the art form) never sinks; like high quality cream it will only rise to the top. The reward of patience is patience. I do believe that your patience will be highly regarded and will be well rewarded. Keep on keeping on. 🎼

      @@QJamTracks maybe your content is too good, I mean, popular content is not always the best or valuable by others, a lot of people just want to be entertained without the need of taking knowledge, new skills, education, etc.
      As you said, you have to be patient, keep doing what you do and people will come.

    Really really really good lesson. The way you demonstrate the different sound based upon the context of the chord being played behind the arpeggio is fantastic. It really lends itself to viewing music as a language and not just thinking of it as notes which I think is something that is lost on most lessons on the internet.

I have made gains watching your videos. I love all the exotic scales & these simple arpeggios and you teach very well and I am able to understand it & remember it.
    Thank you. I will share this video now with my son who is studying guitar.

    ❣ I took the red pill, and I must say that I dug it. Cross referencing the fretboard patterns to the interval patterns made this complex modal and melodic chordal arpeggiation crystal clear. Now there's work to be done. "Fascinating!" -Spock..

I love your channel, but It's been like learning Portuguese from a Greek radio station. But I have to say I'm betting better being forced to try to make sense more advanced lessons. Today's lesson I actually got 80% of it. Wow, I think I can actually order lunch in Portuguese now. Thanks, I'm getting there.

    This is a fantastic lesson. One of the biggest issues in learning guitar in my opinion is the focus is never on the SOUND of a scale relative to the chord. I would have done so many things differently if I had hindsight when I started playing at 7 years old.

  • @slickwillie3376

    Combining these shapes with root note locations on the neck will speed up my learning of note locations, while at the same time provide much food for thought in learning theory. The versatility of these one-octave shapes or arpeggios, and even one-octave scales like pentatonics and blues, "octavated" across the neck, eliminates a lot of tedium and boredom. In addition to that, the expansion of my knowledge of the various degree locations related to the roots will help in other ways, such as modal soloing and related chord constructions. I like that new word "octavate". LOL

    Honestly, The Matrix just gets better each and every single time I watch it. It's so deeply powerful and evocative with its resounding relevance. I don't know what people think it's about, but it's truly spiritual. Great reference and lesson. Thanks.
    "What is the matrix? Control." as Neo walks by the cop writing a ticket. Absolute favorite scene while 'Clubbed to Death' plays. Peak pre-millenium culture.

    “Prelude” from Final Fantasy (Nobuo Uematsu) is a fun one to play if you have a seven-string guitar. I’m sure it can be played on other guitars, but I like the tone that the seventh string sounds.

    Great conceptual way to implement the chord tones. Would you mind making a video explaining how we can implement the same pattern but with a minor third instead? I’m hoping to unlock some mean harmonic minor concepts expectedly.
