- Today you're going to learn awesome licks using the Flatted Fifth. In fact, you’ll see the exact process the pros use to create their own flatted 5th licks.
This is a really fun guitar licks lesson that helps you create your own creative guitar solos.
Here's some of the stuff we're going to cover in today's guitar solo lesson video.
First, I'll show you why they call the flatted fifth the “devil’s interval” (diabolus in musica). I personally use this special tritone to make endless cool (and dark) guitar licks, and I’ll show you how easy it is for you to use it flat 5 licks too.
Then, I’ll show you many some really cool flatted fifth guitar licks (yes, all the tab is included).
If you’ve ever struggled to use the flatted fifth in your own guitar playing, you’re about to see how easy it is to create your own flat 5 licks.
Third, I show you several more killer licks that are easy to learn - all of them are based on the awesome sound of the flatted 5th.
Next up, I’ll break down for you how each flatted 5th lick was created.
This is a great way to spice up your guitar soloing quickly. And the best part is, you learn how to apply flatted fifth guitar licks over any song, in any style.

Sounds cool. What a huge difference a single note can make!
Yes! :)
I love the tritone sound (that's why Hungarian minor is one of my favorite scales to use for soloing. It's like Harmonic minor on steroids). Great video!
Love the dark sounding licks
The flatted 5th is a truly awesome sound! Thanks for helping me better use it in my own guitar playing. :)
Yes it is! You're welcome Dan
I love the first example!
Cool concept!
Good lesson! Best explanation of flatted fifth I've seen.
I want to try out all of those licks... Very cool concept and not very complicated to learn also... Thanks Tom Hess
Glad you like it Dhanesh! :)
Very cool! I love the flatted 5th!!!! Thank you :-)
:) my pleasure, Mo!
Very cool video. Please keep them coming. Thanks Tom!
Glad you like it, and yes, there will be a lot more. :) Next one coming in a little more than a week.
Great lesson, your vibrato is truly excellent.
Thanks David, glad you like it :)
Evil! I dig it!
Awesome sound!
Glad you like it! :)
Great video!
Thanks! :)
Cool
A really good riff that uses this is The End by My Chemical Romance
Love the lesson! This is great stuff!! What model guitar is that you're playing?
THANK YOU .. I WANT TO BE A GUITAR PLAYER NOW!!!!!
One of the coolest sounds. Reminds me of Mars by Gustav Holst, doesn't get more dramatic than that!
Yes! :)
Incredible vibrato sir
Thanks Anthony! :)
your lessons are awesome...throw in that b2 also...
Thanks :) And yes, the b2 is a great sound as well, but that's a topic for a future video :)
Great video! Does it work so well when "hanging out" because of the wide vibrato your giving is bouncing back and forwards between b5th and 5th?
I'm glad you like the video! Vibrato is just an ornament of the note, but your ear still hears the b5 as the main pitch (no matter how wide or narrow the vibrato is).
Hey Tom, Very cool... thank you sir!!! A question if I may, if you flat the 5th in a chord does that make it a Augmented Chord, Diminished Chord or neither?
ps. just started lesson with you on you site.
You are welcome :) The answer to your question is: "neither". An augmented chord is a major triad with a RAISED 5th (not flatted 5th). And a diminished chord also needs to have the 3rd flatted (as well as the 5th).
The mistake I made was when I was trying to do an arpeggio I flatten the 5th straight away which ends up changing the chord but still I'm not getting the sound I wanted.
Thanks a lot for this.
Hi guys. Is this the BLUE NOTE? As in the same note that makes the blues scale different from the pentatonic scale?? That's also a flatted 5th right? So here he's using an A minor regular diatonic scale but with the blue note?
yep
Yes, that is correct. You can throw the b5 ("the blue note") into any scale.
Respected sir..i have one question? How to create flat note in between E major 7 and F major
Sorry, I don't understand your question. What do you mean by "flat note"? And what do you mean by "between" chords? If you are asking about playing a Tritone (flat 5), you always play it over 1 chord, not "between 2 chords". So the flat 5 over the E major 7 would be Bb, and over F major, it would be Cb
Sorry sir for the wrong question.
I would love to know about Basic modes
What would you like to know about the basic modes? Modes are a huge topic (and I can teach it to you in detail, in my Breakthrough Guitar Lessons: tomhess.net/Guitar )
Love that amp sound! What are you playing through to have that sound?
Hi Chuck, glad you like it! :) It's a Blackstar Stereo 20 v2
@@tomhessmusiccorp Wow! You're running directly out of the amp to your guitar?
yes
@@tomhessmusiccorp I must get one of those!
it's hard to focus on the note you're demonstrating when that vibrato grabs you by the neck. as always, great guitar player Tom!
So you can use this for any minor scale
Of course.
Thx
You're welcome Steven :)
Mmm spicy! 🤤
It's dark because it resembles the sound of someone wailing in agony
Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
It does sound evil and disturbing that's probably why early church avoided composing using flatened fifth
