Lessons I got from this topick are :

-Patience, Dedication, Love. you only need these

-I should quit

  • find something like that (easy tab) and play the fuck out of it. Feel good about yourself for a bit. Now do it fucking again.

-, the key is practice and ang on.

  • Learn scales

Patience...

so let's go for a little thing about scales. Pardon my errors, I'm not used to explain these things in English...

Firstly, what is scales. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_scale

Yeah, I'm a lazy guy :)

We'll begin with a scale you already know: Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si

This is the Ionian Do scale (or major Do scale).

      2nd Position                           4th Position

e||------------------------3-5-7-8-|---------------------------------7-8--|| B||------------------3-5-6---------|----------------------------8-10------|| G||------------2-4-5---------------|---------------------7-9-10-----------|| D||------2-3-5---------------------|--------------7-9-10------------------|| A||--3-5---------------------------|-------7-8-10-------------------------|| E||--------------------------------|--8-10--------------------------------||

Here's the 2nd and 4th position of the Ionian scale.

So what I want you to do is simple: everyday, when you get your guitar, put your metronome at a chosen speed and play these patterns ascending and descending.

This kind of exercises will train your ears, fingers and prepare you for improvisation.

BONUS!

e||---------------------------8-11--||
B||----------------------8-11-------||
G||-----------------8-10------------||
D||------------8-10-----------------||
A||-------8-10----------------------||
E||--8-11---------------------------||

This is the 1st position of the Pentatonic scale (Do pentatonic for this example). You can play this scale over any classic rock/blues, I IV V, chord progression (Do Fa Sol for this example). Once you're familiar with this scale, try to improvise on songs you like by using it. :)

Ok, that's all for the moment. Hope its understandable :S

Have faith little warrior

Do = C, Re = D, Mi = E, Fa = F, Sol = G, La = A, Si = B (for you, USA peoples)

Thank you for your reply , I love you ..... <3<3<3

Sorry for bein' impatient , but the last page only contain lesson that enrich my vocabulary of foreign languages , so , yeah ... :p

But , sorry for being stupid , I don't really understand your lesson as a theory , but in the meantime I could use the tab for practicin' my fingers. Oh yeah , I don't have a metronome , should I have it ? Is it crucial for my guitar training ?

I think it would be nice if there is a guitar lesson page somewhere in this great site ..

Waiting for more replies ...
