Hi all.
I’ve been a bass player for years (14) and am pretty new to guitar. Although I can play most chords open and barred, I’m a rank beginner at lead guitar. I’ve had a ball with lesson EP025. Thanks Brian.
A number of things. First, I like the chord progression especially the F# minor to the D. That sounds so cool to me. I don’t play the lead part exactly note for note but pretty close. I found that I could change notes slightly that was comfortable for me to play and still sound very close to the exact notation.
I added a whole new section to the chord progression. You might call it a bridge or chorus while the main progression would be the verse. I added (4/4 time):
D one measure (4 beats)
A ” ” “
E ” ” “
A 2 beats
A7 2 beats
D one measure (4 beats)
A ” ” “
B ” ” “
E ” ” “
then back into the verseI made up my own lead part for the section above. This is probably all pretty simple to you guys who are experienced players but it’s a learning process for me.
At my experience level, I might feel adequate to play rhythm guitar with a group but not lead. I want to become a competent lead player. These lessons are helping. This is fun.
