    Not too long ago, we had the absolute genius guitarist Tom Quayle visit our Birmingham store for an in-store clinic along with his amazing signature Ibanez guitar. We learnt tons of amazing tips from Tom, and we made sure to document some of them!
    In this excerpt, Tom explains how to nail your legato in a way that isn't overwhelming or fatiguing. Thanks Tom!

    I would really like to see new albums, new real songs, new live shows with a band. Not always demos, tuts, or the same few shred-covers. I think Quayle could and should do a lot more.

      There is no money to be made in new albums, original music, or performance. RUclips and social media, along with party DJs, killed all that. If there was big money to be made in performance, then all the great guitar players would be doing that. The money for guitar players in today's world is made in teaching students, RUclips ad share, and in creating courses. Of course, if you want to set yourself apart from just being a great guitar player, learn to sing! People love to hear singing, good or bad. There is just something about singing. Perhaps because the human voice is the first instrument, and that's all we hear on the radio.

    So ascending he only plectrum picks the root note on E string, then middle finger picks everything else? (ie. first note of each 3 note/string pattern). Either way, he is the very smoothest legato player I've seen.

    Barely using the pic except for the first note, then the sequence is; (hammer-on)pull-off, (hammer on)pull-off & right third finger pull the next note. For motion economy he makes sure to immediately place the RH 3rd finger on the string it will be pulling next. I still think mastering picking each note is a necessary skill hut this hybrid sequencing of “pic, pull, pull & RH 3rd finger pull” has its place.

    Hi, I think that the best translation of ‘legato’ in Italian is ‘tied’.

    • @Quinceps
      @Quinceps Год назад

      Yes, also "bound". in other Romance languages like Spanish we have 'ligado' and so on. "Ligar" (It. legare) means "to tie, to bind". Of course we stick to Italian for the music term, but it's fairly easy for Romance language speakers to get the meanings of these roots.

    IIRC the 'connected' aspect of the legato is the significant part. If you're playing another instrument there shouldn't be any overlapping of notes, but neither gaps between notes. Also very little transient attack. Obviously some of these will happen as part of the expression but should be minimised to considered expression.
