Silver Hair Guitarist: Guitar Lick

Jumat, 03 Februari 2012

These licks are so Fusion

These lines below, I stole from Don Mock. In music term, it's not stealing, it's paraphrasing hahaha...joking.

Line 1
Rock and jazz smell is really demonstrated in this line. It begins with an almost "Hendrix" lick through the first bar then suddenly the line jumps "outside" the key into a sequence made up of B. Ab, then F Pentatonic Scales.

D7#9

Line 2
This dominant type line use the variety of 5^th and 6^th intervals and triad shapes. For different taste, just try to add hammer on and pull-ofs. Experiment playing this line over C7, Gm7 and BbMaj7b5. After you have learn it, try this; lower all the E notes to Eb. Now we have new dominant type line that will work over F7, Cm7, etc

C7, Gm7

Line3
The Harmonies (chord) used in many fusion tunes are often Poly, Bitonal and Triad over Bass note Chords. It's nice to have a vocabulary of single note ideas that reflect these sounds. This line use the note of G, A, B and D major Triads along with some 4th interval shapes to create a bitonal effect. It sounds good over A7, G/A, B/A, Em7 etc.

B Major Lick by using Open String

A good lick means memorable lick and when we talk about memorable, sometimes need no SPEED in it. But, it sometimes....

So, this is Sometimes.....
A simple Q & A lick. Works fine with clean, distorted, even with violin or flute sound :D

As you see, the Key is on B, with I IV V I progression.
