    For me this was one of your best lessons. I had gotten up to speed on the same type of lick using triplets but using four notes opens up a whole new sound and kicks your playing up into a more professional sound.

    Thanks! The light bulb went off for me with the Dickie Betts reference and I'm now understanding how he mixes major and minor pentatonic.

    Excellent lesson helps a lot from knowing Pentatonic to being able to.

    Your explanation and demonstration are very fluid. Makes me think I can do it. I know it takes practice. This lesson is on my next practice session. Thank you

    Phil Manzanera's great solo in Roxy Music's "In every dream home a heartache" uses this technique. Great lesson, Brian! 👏👏👏👏👏

    Commonly heard in rock solos, very cool, can also switch to 3 or 5 note patterns on any scale as good exercises

    Thank you this is brilliant. I couldn’t find a link to the tabs or your website anywhere.
    I wondered if you had a tutorial on reading tabs. Thank you again.

    It's like the old saying "Less is more. Limiting the number of notes will have thinking about transitions rather than what to note to play next. Later when you master this you can more notes. Also notes don't have to have the same time value. Mix it up for more variety.

    my man...i think i focused more on the backing tracks this time. when i shared it with my brother, we really talked about how you said it "sounds fast" etc, but those backing tracks are the "cha cha" that changes the whole mood. I guess what Im saying is, I get so much more out of each lesson than just the main topic. sometime I even see that, "ah ha, there's where I should position that finger in that down the scale". peace

    This makes me want to ditch what I’m currently learning and start working on this instead. Argggghhhh!

    How tight do you hold your pick, and how far do you dig in with it? I've been playing for years, but I've never been able to solo while alternate picking. I don't believe anybody has ever showed me properly.

    • @activemelody
      @activemelody  6 месяцев назад +2

      The key is to angle is slightly so that it strikes the strings at an angle instead of straight on, and then try to relax everything (that’s the hardest part).

    • @thebluesrockers
      @thebluesrockers 6 месяцев назад

      @@activemelody thank you for the tip. I'll try working on that.
      I have 3 songs that I recorded several years ago on a site called N1M Just google Joe Garrison N1M and you can check them out. I'm really in need of the alternate picking, but I feel I do okay on the slow solo's. I really hope you look them up and give them a listen. Then maybe you could offer up some advice as to improve on my solo's. Thank you for all your lessons. At 55 years old I'm feeling defeated with speed playing. But you do offer a lot to help me out of that slump. Peace.. Joe

    I am still lost trying in to figure up and down on your fret board diagram. Can’t even start learning a pattern never mind anything else.

    Its called sequencing

  • @kaymobe

    Why is the guitar so crazy to me its like up is down left is right. That’s why Jimmy Hendrix reversed his strings so he could learn in a way that up is up and down is down and left is left and right is right. That said I learned the pentatonic from low E to high E and back.

    • @lucyfuir6386

      Jimi was left handed. Lefty guitars are twice as much money so he re-strung and flipped it over so it would play as a lefty
