This 100% explains the sound I’ve been hearing in fusion songs that I wanted to learn to play! Especially the part where you play between the different Dorian chord arpeggios
They're beautiful guitars! I have a similar one, the Talman series are all soooo lovely, it feels a lot more balanced than any Tele or strat I've ever played, even though those have a nice distinctive sound, the Talman seems to be more versatile, at least to me
This is a revelation for me. I had started to realise I could play arpeggios from the key diatonic chords but not really grasped how far I could take that.
For a very funk jazz vibe I like to harmonize the major bebop scale. You get a hidden hand of additional chord flavors to add to the good ol' ionian. In minor keys you can vibe in various minor modes.
Been subscribed for ages because I saw you do something/say something interesting enough to catch my attention - Consider it well and truly engaged now! Masterclass Lesson - I will have to delve into your video archive now! Thanks mate - from Aussieland...
Cool, thanks! Appreciate you sticking with my channel. Lots of stuff to absorb now that I’m posting daily. Let me know if you have any questions? Or things you think I should cover. Cheers
@@NickGranville good stuff. I play funk, soul, rythmn and blues in a function band and I'm trying to figure out some stuff to go over 12 bars and single chord jams to give a bit more 'ooomff'. I'll be working my way through your vids for the next couple weeks. Thanks again
Proxima CT thanks man! Greetings from Ludlow England, although I’m off to Spain today. Hoping to get to Barcelona. I’ve heard nothing but good things about the place
The arpegios are very helpful to understand the connection between the dorian and the "corresponding" scale.. For example the Em is not actually connected to D dorian, but the E phrygian. But when you play the arpegio of Em (E G B D), is the same as the arpegio of the E phrygian.. And this gives the feeling of playing Em, but your are actually not! Very helpful tips in general, thanks! :)
This lesson is exactly what I was looking for to improve my improvisation and integrating modal theory in a useful context. I bought your album as well, it's great!
@@NickGranville I agree. People just like too to be "that person". The content you are doing is great and I am getting into fusion to boost my playing with more complex phrasing. You can see me playing on my channel as well!
You seem so learned. Such an awesome vid. But now I want you to give us an elaborated lesson like you did over fusion and jazz basic changes of chords in both minor and major. Seems a load of work, but for all budding guitarists you will be a hero. Much love and respect, Ayan
@@NickGranville would also be lovely if you can teach us how to use this using the popular chord progressions. for example, I have trouble following up the technique used by chick corea on got a match hehehe
Very well put and great examples man! Just to add on this, Michael Breker (and Mike Stern consequentially) play often a minor third up on vamps, so C min over A min for example. Kurt Rosenwinkel even uses this idea on 2/5/1. Great sounding concept to expand on your amazing lesson
nakedsingularity thanks so much, I’m trying to spread the message of what I’m musically about. I forget that I have an accent. It’s something I’ve become acutely aware of since being in the UK.
@@NickGranville I noticed from the way you pronounce "seven", "seventh" and "arpeggios". I hope you don't find this insulting, your english is perfect.
This is possibly one of the best things ever. I've been trying to find ways to play that more tense/altered way that sounds really cool. I take it you can use the same arpeggio ideas for major or dominant chord vamps, but how about the substitution and scale stuff? For major,are the major scale or Lydian (and arpeggios in those scales) the only options? Cheers. I look forward to getting stuck into this lesson tomorrow morning.
Eric Linfoot thanks! To answer your question, no major and Lydian arent the only 2 options on major, they’re just the most useable. If you want more colour try Lydian augmented. Also you mentioned subs - I have a lesson from a while back on pentatonic substitutions sounds like it might be useful. Cheers
This is cool! I want to learn fusion and jazz. I have a good understanding of blues,classic rock ,and country. And do play Fly Me To The Moon,and Stormy Monday. Where is a good place to start? I wish there were chord diagrams here. I really like the way you voiced the chords.
Great video. I loved the Here it is! marker ;) you develop the explanations in your video just like you develop your solos, from simpler to more complex concepts. I'm just studying harmony, right now I'm on the arpeggio level, can't wait to try substitutions (A7alt --> Dm etc...) by myself!!! ;) You are a very good teacher. Greetings from Italy! :))
There's obviously so much more to learn beyond the concepts presented in this video, but getting a handle on the ideas presented here would be such a great leap forward for me. I'm sure I'll return to this video many times. My only complaint with your channel is that you don't post new content often enough - I guess life gets in the way!
Pete Brown thanks! Some times I get crazy busy with gigs and recordings I struggle to keep up with posting to RUclips. Will do my best to post more. Thanks
Subscribed. What an awesome teacher you are. This is exactly the kind of stuff I have been needing to see. And the guitar sounds great too!

Tension and resolution. That's it.
Great lesson! Thanks!
Thanks
Can I learn so much in one short lesson? Yes, I can! This is my first lesson by Mr. Granville. Thank you for your perfect video lesson!
Thanks! Glad it’s useful
Best lesson ever. Straight to the point.

This lesson is unbelievably useful. It will take awhile to unpack all the details and information. Would love to see similar lessons on other vamps
Thanks. I should do further videos and on this

Such a resourceful video. Basically a crash course on jazz guitar. By the way Do you also arpeggiate the altered scale ?
Thanks! Yes I do. I look for the arpeggios in everything, even altered scale. Cheers for watching!
wowww so much things to learn in 1 vids!! thanks a lot!
Cheers, glad it was useful
